does purgatus make fire trauma redundant?
its anti synergy yes
because they both cap warp fire?
and if not, I'm guessing people want you to run purg lol
theres a blob of 200 enemies, some crushers, maulers, bulwarks
about 20% of them are pink
You can run whatever if you can actually perform well with it
its hard to tell which they are
It's just that, it's very easy to be good with purg
if you dont kill the pink ones
the rest of them heal all the dmg you do to them
so now you set everything on fire a lot
all the pink ones burn to death
everything stops healing
everything else burns to death
in that same situation with another weapon
you just cant reliably target the pink enemies fast enough
now imagine that same situation with 3 bosses thrown in, say twins and a spawn
right, I can understand that
but the spawn and the pistol twin are also pink
you lose 🙂
would you use this same skill tree with the brittleness trauma?
no
almost
what would you swap
So what would you take for blessings on trauma typically? Because I’m asking for lone psyker set ups which is most common for me to see right now
never ever seen 2 psykers in havoc
That’s what I mean
any addons to vs?
I joined a pod gas mission and took trauma to coax people out of the gas by clearing a way at the cost of taking a lot of damage in other situations
blazing nexus
this is what i would run
if i knew there was another psyker
who was running purgatus
inferno sorry
What are good/fun weapons on Gunker with focus on ranged? (Besides Recon las)
Dang so am I wrong putting flurry and nexus on trauma?
I am
have seen the fan fire revolver, infantry autogun
Wew. No thanks
its just better there
surge staff
iag the goat
if you dont have either youre not doing so good
and both isnt good because you dont have the crit rate to support blazing
So typically if you’re lone psyker you do want blazing on trauma?
yes
which is why you see nexus and blazing, or flurry and brittle
if youre lone psyker yes blazing trauma is better
is blast radius the dump stat or do you want even distro
but in havoc 40
Yea the staff wasn’t killing fast enough at all. Too many charges to clear
blazing trauma doesnt wor
who says this
me
Then again I looked and had lower tier blessings for some reason
the blazing trauma enhoyer
it does work with shriek
but not with bubble
6 stacks is not enough to clear pox
I only play blaze trauma in h40
NO
warp resistance only
and then what happens in final toll, you get killed, or you get your team mates killed
final toll is a bitch but I still clear fast enough to not be an issue
or you only ever play with players from psyker chat who of curse never make mistakes
clear fast enough?
Is there a trauma build that scales somewhat evenly across difficulties?
youre trolling
of curse they don't
:3
i actually posted a build inspired by yours above rat
this looks just like what I had
though slightly toned down for a beginner
yeah i stole it off a rando
squeak (yus thats perfect. rat doesnt mind at all)
Yea so what’s more effective? Warp nexus and flurry wasn’t helping me then again my aim is probably off some or it requires full charges each attempt?
Oh yea i remember that now lol
Ok thank you
but i think both types of trauma take an extremely high skill level to use effectively in high havoc
and often with uncoordinated pubs, especially in final toll, youre going to get your teammates killed
throwing stuff at their feet, stealing kills? How do you mean
you knock it down
you do enough damage to make it red
it stands back up and is unstunnable
the pink ones heal it
Nah I’m just trying to get clean runs it middle level
surely thou art jesting
daresayeth, i jest not
squeak (Rat thinks the guide will be the most helpful for you then)
Oh my god it’s the rat
squeak (as long as you have a few of the key components in your trauma build which enables the kind of gameplay rat describes, you will be fine)
I’m going to give it a shot rat Ty
Stand on a chair like any woman
final toll the only modifier i gotta look out for to avoid trauma?
ngl no ER is kinda 
squeak (but the main takeaway for you will likely be movement tech, quell cancelling by weapon swapping and just experience and muscle memeory from scurrying)
Loved the DH despawn on gloriana
you must focus the pink ones
Was so cool
What?
squeak (rat wishes you luck fren! and rat is always happy to answer any questions)
pus is no real problem to you on trauma
.0.
and rituals is always ez mode
im going to have to watch your video to understand the movement tech rat
It’s a joke about old media creating a cliche where women see a small animal and stand on a chair or table
i can't get the timings right just reading it
Oh hahahah
i will be practicing in damnation for a couple of days
squeak (do note it is from before the havoc overhaul. there are some vods on rat's twitch which might have better quality and better represent what its like to scurry with the build currently)
theres a bit in that video rat
o7
squeak (thats fine, take your time there is no rush. it took rat many many hours to learn it too) >.<
what a charming creature
somehow its endearing when it refers to itself in third person
squeak (very kind fren. rat's mannerisms arnt for everyone but rat appreciates the compliment) ;D
You mean cute.
i have yet to formulate a complete opinion
do you typically want an even distribution on the force greatsword?
I have been dumping defence
o i c
Warp resist is a negative stat. You want as little as possible.
gracias frens
Actually scuffed this class has a negative stat
I might try to build a new Inferno staff for a Shriek build. Get like 40 warp resist or so.
wdym, it's a good thing lol
Takes too long to get peril up with 60 and constant shrieking
and whether you want negative warp res is build-dependant
Idk any build that’s good that wants any warp resist
I do
You should be allowed to lower stats from max if you want
builds without BCOB and vent will not want negative warp res
the more warp resistance you have, the longer you can use peril generating abilities
the key is to know how much peril you're generating with given attacks
Take PotS instead of ER?
for example - with FGS, having low warp resistance helps get your peril high for warp rider boosted special attacks
you want high warp resistance if you use the surge staff
because peril directly limits your dps by stopping you from using the charged secondary
Yeah but that means you don’t wanna max a weapon sometimes
I forgot that was an option.
I want to say warp res started at 10 on that FGS
Nice. My lowest FGS is like 41% WR
What is the lowest a stat can be with everything else 80?
I've had things start at 0 and they usually end around 40. The issue is that something that starts at 0 gains more per level than something starting at 10
earlier, you said you quell while sliding. did you mean a dodge slide, or are you sprinting into it
oh
Channel. Not cast
sry
Lowest dump I've been able to get so far is 18% with 80 everything else.
That's very silly.
you charge it for half a second and start screaming lol
does anybody know if deflector can block trapper projectiles?
it does not
lame
you know what
would be funny if we could force push nets away
and trap the trapper

I'm not!
ive had a bunch of LFGs that were legit worse than auric players
I’m mean
I will kick you if you tell me what to do in my lobby
Or I’ll say nothing and aggro dump you
Question, is there an ability that lets psykers heal themselves?
Running Purg staff, BB, and bubble shield for havoc. Do you all prefer EP or Warp Siphon?
Only toughness regen options. No HP healing.
is it just me or does smite feel like shit in damnation and higher, my fun bubble smite psyker feels like he hitting people with a wet towel with all his things too,,
If it's a dreg seed and there's a lack of aggression from the team, I personally prefer EP BB. That is not a meta thing a a personal preference thing.
Do you have
Shriek/Gaze and EP?
Oh wait
You don't
bubble
That's why
bubble
i like bubble :((
Generally, yes
Yeah don't pair with smite
And I say that as someone who has never used lfg here

Thats a shame, how powerful are those toughness regen abilities? Like, are they just as powerful as other classes, enough to tank decent amounts of damage, or only topping it off between fights?
Do you at least have Empowered Psyonics?
what was fartshart thinking putting it down the same line of stuffs
I've been running EP BB and it's been nice. But There are some draws to WC as well though I don't have a build for it
aye
other than the pinned build - shriek
Perfectionism Assail 💖
voidblast staff no longer feels like hollow ourple, greatsword feels like a walking stick, and the smite is doing something its just im getting max peril and then i gotta take a breather before i stun some more
shriek
but the bubble is so much fun i feel like a goddamn superhero
If you had shriek/gaze you'd quell peril
Warp Siphon and bubble for inferno with EE for havoc
/infinite smite
🫡
🫡
Smite is cool until you realize trauma is literally just better in every way
I wish bubble wasn't so good. I love shriek
Take the wall pill
you mean surge?
No but sure
Smite was good once, the problem now is the good staves do what you want smite to do... but better
i thought you were comparing staffs
Bubble is not an absolute must, but it's still meta in havocs.
You don't HAVE to bubble.
Yea all my havocs earlier I ran shriekd and it wasn't an issue
but there were definitely some times I was like "oo, if I had bubble here
so im assuming that means surge is shit?
Not really
It's a single target oriented weapon
With inconsistent damage
You either deal 600 or 60000 damage

surge staff? 🤔
You don't bring it for horde clearing
EK
💀
ah so surge staff 😠
ye
akshually it can hit two targets 🤓 👆
ok but why is my Voidstrike staff sucking balls then its not hollowing the purple like I was promised on the tin!

Doesn't even hit 300 Dmg on the second target
Hoping the 2nd target gets KF
first target gets the fucking electric chair
second target gets a warm massage
why do I have condition damage if I'm deliberately not running any soulblaze to avoid stealing damage from psyker teammate
I should try building for second target damage
300 is the quota
Against unarmored
like
how can i identify cracked builds on the website
where am I getting condition damage from
avoid games lantern for builds tbh
It's almost a coherent build and the things just jump out at ya
it's deliberatley built to avoid soulblaze because it is for running second psyker
without stealing soulblaze from the other guy

So I'm guessing condition is SB?
IDK. Might have to ask syllo
or someone like that
Imagine it's some unbelievably scuffed shit that's a bug nobody has noticed
because nobody runs a no soulblaze voidblast staff
and like
one person running blazing spirit makes all voidblast staves apply soulblaze on crit
or something unimaginably stupid like that
Or soulblaze ownership transfers from blazing spirit if any other voidblast staff hits the target
@summer prairie Do you know what happened here or caused this? #psyker-class message
build #psyker-class message
yeah it's for damage over time effect
soulblaze, bleed, etc.
WAIT
I think I know what it might be
It was an inferno mission
The fucking fire barrels
Then where should I go?
Right here baby 😎
Trauma is best at barrel gaming too
k then help me fix this since im not gonna do smiteker no more
play gun psyker
There's staff builds in the 2nd pin
no im a wizard purist
then I cannot help you
go play with sticks like a normal psyker player
hahaha
annihilate them in melee instead
recon is also ammo friendly
question about your preferences then. why run gunker over vet with recon las?
better melee damage and mobility
interesting, not what I expected
had to dig for a bit but this was my first havoc 40 completion with gun psyker
Power DI was bugged at this point and Assail was showing up as combat ability damage not blitz damage
are you gruntilda or aurore?
gruntilda
so you use your ranged weapon for specialists and such? assail for dreg rifleman and thick hordes?
you just weave it when you can for extra DPS?
yup
do you have a build you recommend posted anywhere? I think I might have a decent synergy with this
I run it like this, but I would recommend taking a bit more durability to ease into the playstyle
running without warp unbound reeee
anyone got a bubble knight build or do i just copy agent's?
i didnt see bubble as a used node in like any of them
and thank you
I use bolt pistol to make assail and fgs wave apply bleed xd
oh wow, thats cool
recon las and infantry autogun are the best if you want your gun to actually do damage
and i never thought brain rupture was all that good since i typically would get it jacked by other people, but watching someone has made me feel like a fool
puncture and lethal?
There's a note to just swap to bubble on the relevant builds. Meaning inferno and VB.
Just swap shriek over to bubble nodes
thank you, i am blind. the blindfold im wearing is preventing me from reading i appreciate you pointing this out for me
wait huh i just noticed bubble knight had no BCOB
Smelly exploit user
The only ethical bolt pistol bug is using it to buff your peril explosion
Me when I ball spam and dog bleed
At least rumbler is intended
Purg staff exploiting for the past few weeks with empathic evasion
this build is fun
and its actually really terrible
did like no damage on malice even
no need to look at it any further
you can do some ok damage with it
it's just sweaty as fuck
am joking
Bomber resist includes those AOE fire pads as a result of their bombs right?
I want to rename my psyker, any suggestion for a thematic name ?
I just killed you with a barrel
Michael Bubble
I see now why you guys don’t like beasts of nurgle. Spawning over 6 of those on magistrati oubliette is just wrong
Looks just like that niqqa

Them and Chaos Spawn are the reason I don't play builds with bad boss damage
It’s trolly as hell how that slug passes through small opening and different stories to follow you
Bon taking 5 business days to finally show up. Monster orchestra about to give up.
oh dear, gorgeous
Would a psyker ever want a 21% health curio
Sure.
on auric getting to 201 hp with x1 sniper resist lets you tank a sniper and multiple bursters
Some like more hp, others like more toughness, and others like both
Ohh snazy. Ill buy it then. Thanks
Lost because a burster ignored my pushes 3x, then blew me up. But Purg + Shriek is doing pretty well. Gotta work on taking less damage, though.
busters strike again
Glag shriek is working
It was rude
feels so much more free than bubble in many ways
Feels more impactful, too.
Definitely more fun.
more mobile
I died 2x. Once to that burster, once to bad choices on my part
All three Arbies were down a staircase, I was not. Tried to get to them. Should have stayed put
Got stuck between a bunch of bulwarks and a pogryn
😭
got bored and decided to take my flame staff/bb build into the mostly melee auric maelstrom lol
blast em
Next time we double psyker, I can take VB or EK and to help CC more or get shooters that are out of reach.
Appreciated. I do feel kinda helpless against shooters more than 15m away
no >:3
Looks like purple? A lot of elite damage
hey chaos, just wondering, do you play arb at all? If so, what is your arb called?
Yeah, was purple
Arbysbeefsandwich
Arbyscheesesteak

okay so
why cant i access my warp blessing?
its different for the other weapons i have
but somehow the force greatsword i cant rebless?
You need mastery to unlock blessings to be able to change them as you please.
Not the same weapon group
Did you spend them?
spend?
OH IM A FOOL
THERES A MASTERIES TAB RIGHT THERE
MY APOLOGIES 💀
I THOUGHT YOU HAD TO DO THAT AT HADRONS THING
Zzz
Can you imagine having all the things related to unlocking and upgrading weapons in the same place? Good joke
my surge staff only ever hits 2 targets... is there a way to hit more? folks said taking the smite upgrade path gets 1 extra target, and warp splitting is another.. tried having both on and hovering at 95-100 peril and still only hitting 2..
No, who told you that 
Yeah it's just 2, idk who told you those things but they were misinformed 
2 is all you need really, the staff is great the way it is
i c i c.
But in case Fatshark is reading this: Surge staff is super weak and really needs buff, please
is toughness regen really wanted in curios?
This one went better. Chasm Logistratum, Pus-hardened/Red
No, especially not for psyker
No, it only counts coherency toughness which doesn't work most of the time when you actually need it
That is some nice warpfire damage
lol .. would just be nice if it hit more enemies...
Thank you. I have started trying Shriek instead of Bubble. Got frustrated at Arbitrators and Ogryns outdamaging me
ah, guide said S tier so was wondering. Do I need to go 1 stam and 2 toughness or would 2 tough 1 health work? Also running 3 Ability regen perks work?
All of those work
I tried getting mods to work so I could use that and I failed
Guide is outdated. Functionality got changed, and it's not great now. Toughness regen, that is
fair
I guess, I would rather have other buffs I think, because the second target hit doesn't take a lot of damage to begin with, just gets stunned really, can trigger Kinetic Flayer though which is nice
I cannot remember how I got mods working the first time. The mod plugin + Vortex
I did that and was stuck on processing
Just need the framework and the loader and then you can do everything manually
it should work but again was stuck on processing screen
That's how
Seems right.
I will reiterate that Shriek feels much more fun, dynamic, and impactful than bubble
Although, I do miss bubble sometimes
When there are eighty gunners across the way and no one is shooting them, for example
Simple solution, bring a second psyker for bubble
Play surge its better with shriek
Inferno Shriek
Rending Blast Bubble
But not into purple
I have.
Unless your purple targeting is on point with surge
Like me

Sry like unsanctioned. Im not that good
Fair.
I can confirm that only dog kills seem to trigger EO right now, and probably not even dog kills if it's voltaic mandibles
server only issue
Well, that's not ideal.
That's why I am so bad on arby, Fatshark is holding me back
I’ve been able to proc eo while under lone wolf
I thought I also would have noticed since I've played EO lone wolf a bunch, but at least here wasn't getting any visible procs https://streamable.com/v75ad4
is it better to run Penetrating Flame or Warp Nexus on Inferno staff?
sleep stick?
Puts the user to sleep
ah cause boring
Because you hold two buttons and watch things disappear
also warp resist is dump right/
On everything except voidstrike
is this one one of those, "leave resist as low as possible" deals?
No
It’s just the least desirable stat
A min warp res staff would not be fun to use
I ask cause I have resist at 24 and quell at 61 while the rest are max
Don't keep other stats low for the sake of lower warp res
Gotta say, PotS feels like an awful talent, through and through. 10% rending, even if you're over 75% peril all the time, doesn't feel particularly impactful, and the requirement to keep it up feels harder than any other class's rending nodes.
psyker shouldn't get any rending at all, at least not rending that applies to SB
That's fair.
Give rending to smite



Can keep that purg staff for a vent build and get another one for a bubble build
already started upping it
That’s a great idea. I’m going to @ kitefin directly and make sure the devs see
True make it 120
It’s inconceivable that others can pass through the lighting. Ruins immersion. Make it a hard barrier that players can’t pass
All jokes aside, i would love that. Also, it would make sense. Electrical friction (which is what smite is) does wear down materiel in real life.
Or, barring that, give smite burn as an effect. Its literally electricity
Pretty sure enfeeble does that already, kinda
Make smite harm the psyker because electricity hurts fingers
Isnt that what the peril meter is for?
Smite can’t perils proc
Yes smite should have a better damage efffect than on target damage alone. I can’t recall any shock damage nodes in the tree beside the weak ass 10% one. No blessings or anything else relevant
It hardstops you
Yes burnt finger tips. Mandatory hot hands animation
Psyker dipping his fingies into a tub of aloe vera after smite usage animation when?
2.5 second donning the oven mittens animation to smite
Honey, dinner's ready. Medium rare cooked heretics 
Ogryn be like: "just keep chewing till it stops moving"
You guys are now banned from balance suggestions
I ways already banned. I’m violating ToS 
So what builds are havoc viable?
I guess I deserved that
In lower havoc it doesn’t matter as much. I’ve done up to 20 with everything from gun to elec staff. Then I learned a hard lesson queuing up for havoc 25 with the same staff
Below havoc 20 isn’t even damnation
I don’t even remember if it has Fading Light or not
After that other point to the pinned messages and suggest using the shriek build and replacing it with bubble
Pinned builds are outdated
Well atm I'm practicing inferno bubble
Ok so do you have anything worthwhile to help him?
I don’t like the psyker “meta” for havoc because it just boils down to staff spam and dome
Yea it sucks that’s not wrong
Which is the least engaging thing ever
I'd try smite but I know I'd be murdered
Smite is the ultimate stalling tool, it accomplishes very little if your team can’t work with it, and bores a team that can work with it, in addition to denying a lot of really good buffs
Idk others have got there, I haven’t. I can play auric reliably with rhe EK staff but it’s not the same in havoc with modifiers and director. As much as I don’t like the meta, I’m following it because players experienced by those levels recommend it
Can someone here help me do the cliffhanger penance with psyker because I'm loosing my mind trying to do this with randoms
Yea sure
What's Ur code so I can inv u
In my name
Alright I guess inferno bubble it stays
Yeah as long as you can dodge and don’t back yourself into a corner Purg+bubble works hideously well
Infinite cleave is fair and balanced
Btw what's the easiest way to complete Shoot Fast penance?
its all fun and games
everything except terminus warrant
until 30 pink and red ragers come
and your team have decided to run 3 rooms ahead in the few seconds you turned around to look wtf that sound was
Kill 25 hounds, mutants, or trappers before they incapacitate me or ally
So smite and electro staff? Lol
Lmao
everything on Psyker is great if you're great I think
the standout tools are smite, infernus staff, dueling sword
Because one sparks joy and one does not
DS4 will NOT save you vs unstaggerable healing rager packs
you WILL die
FGS however
bonk bonk bonk
I wish there was a FGS mark with a stab H1
God it would be so good
mk6 is already way good
FGS needs one buff
and ive said it since day 1
you should do a stab on H1 when youre sprinting
the animation of you raising it to your shoulder is so cool but then you dont just run someone through
Like relic blade?
possibly i dont ply much zealot and when i do, its thammer time
Running heavy with fgs should be a spinning cleave attack.
2 hits combo. So he goes from left to right then spin around for another hit.
Very based.
Weak noodle arms can't hold the sword properly or something.
imagine the amount of force required to cleave through like 8 necks in one swing
our dudes are actually insane
with the spin attack, can you interrupt it
or are you locked in like special animations
I would make it locked so it's higher risk but funny big spinny cleave. Xd
Like some elden ring 2 handed weapon but a running spin attack.
What do you guys think of void strike staff
You did say you got it right?
Give Psyker the Wabbajack
Awesome. Don’t worry about party request just wanted to be sure
No problem dude
That's all the annoying asf penances done for all the achievements now U have quelled my miserable mood haha
Yea I know it’s pretty rough. It was the last one I had
Only ones I got are the shocking stuff for zealot and 100 missions without anyone going down but I've done 80% of that one already
I saw a guy do that literally yesterday. If you want to do it sometime hmu
After I've done the shocking stuff I'm down
Any tips for auric survivor? I tried once and got blown off the map twice consecutively
The maelstrom one
Play ogryn bully club makes it super easy
Or arbites cause he's really good now aswel
Don't die 
burga, it's piss easy
Damn this needs to happen so bad and makes too much sense
actually VB makes it even easier
Play easy maelstroms
My luck that something that’s a rarity happens the moment i consciously try to focus on that one thing in a match
ask people in discord for help, surely they won't barrel you to ruin the penance 
A nurgle death pop got me the first time. A buster still inside the door the second 😭
It was with people from here. They probably think I’m a goober lmao
But this is probably the key as cheesy as it feels
For the nurgle thing, probably
Yea I got caught up in the momentum
Is that the 1 map or 5 maps one?
5
5
Okay if you're up to 3 maps without dying let me know.

I can quickly do 1 or 2 maps.
Bet. Not today but I’ll let you know

I can also help, during my evening time
Trust I’m not going to drag people through all five. That’s a trudge
Ty too fren
It's still just playing a maelstrom at the end of the day, I wouldn't mind helping with all 5, just not all 5 at once as I am probably not playing for that long all at once 
Yes that’s what I mean. It’s a commitment of a couple hours at least
That’s too much and fatiguing
In auric play surge creeping flames for easy win.

Make a build with empowered psionics and brain burst. You’ll have to do it over a few matches
Do you carry that into maelstrom? I’m pretty comfortable using it in general aurics but haven’t tried for maelstrom
Havoc seems like it has so many more trash mobs coming at you. I couldn’t hang using the EK
Ye auric and maelstrom the same thing.
Yea same base difficulty I get that
More elites better for surge
More specials also better, not always better for the team, some people don't know how to kill the problem specials quickly and then it's GG
I have 30 mins before food is ready can play a maelstrom now
Since havoc takes too long with pugs
@gray juniper
Looks like he's already playing

unless they patched it a lot of people just quit out when they die to get that, it is (or was) bugged so it didn't count until you got rescued... it's why i've seen some havoc players in a thread suspicious of people flaunting the title
unfortunate for people trying for the title but it needed to be done
They still havent fixed the bug with accepting join requests smh
they might fix it someday, it only took them half a year or something to fix crashing the game if an operative joined a mission while you inspected them
psyker 10% rending when above 75% peril fix when?
Havoc servers still crash often and give a loss
It has been fixed for a while
wait it works? dam nice
It's still trash lol
i doubt it's just havoc, i had a game the other day on auric where i lagged out and it kept giving me error 2014 and 3000-whatever while i tried to reconnect for a whole minute only to find out my character was fucking dead and our poor ogryn did his best god bless him but he couldn't save us with a bot
also the feature of joining in mid-game only for your character to be half-dead and out of ammo? cut that out, you have ways of flagging people abusing the rejoin system and this ain't it
I’m nothing special but you won’t believe how many maelstrom missions I’ve seen end at the start with only one or two people that belong there
we all gotta start somewhere
My bad agent. I’m just doing regular auric to practice voidblast because I’m not that good with it
Yea nothing wrong with that as long as they take something away and use it
Trauma use is an art. Remember to think of demeaning and offensive things to say to the heretics when using it, it improves rending
VB staff is definitely top-tier, the stagger is one of the strongest, it's my favorite build on the "no ammo mostly scab" maelstroms to knock around big armored boys
Yea that’s definitely cheesing it though. I don’t want to do that and can understand why they’d be skeptical of that player’s ability to handle high havoc
installed the profile pic mod last night and forgot about it; accidentally jumpscared myself lol
the more i play havoc 40 the more i realise there is just 2 groups of players
some people are very team focussed and some people are about individual play
if you are one kind and find yourself in a game with the other kind youre gonna have a bad time
Yes
I think I got slicked over into these guys hoping to catch a carry last night
How do you sus out people who are playing above their level?
their drip
if they're playing high levels and they're dressed like they just stepped out of the prologue they're probably pretty good
When they jump while trying to dodge
As If anyone in this server had ever listened to a word of what ive been saying...😂
I wonder why they don't 
Oh, i know why. I just dont care 
Im not locked in here with you...
Youre locked in here with me 
look, it happens sometimes, okay? sometimes i have stupid fingers 
Here is a consolation 🍪
corpse starch cookie, just like mama used to make 
Please let me know if this has been the common experience, but: Me and my friend have both been playing since beta and have semi recently come back to the game and been putting a lot of time in, specifically around havoc progression. We of course blasted through 1-15, and started seeing friction after that, hitting real trouble at havo 20/21. We (mostly me, he doesnt play as much) have been stuck in limbo since and we will go up to 21, then just get bounced back down to 19. It feels like these lower havoc levels are full of auric players who are still playing the "me me me" game and not playing into the team, not funneling or positioning enemies or themselves properly, not turning around to check on teamates, etc.
It is gettinga little frustrating that I/We are routinely the last two alive trying to constantly clutch or carry matches with team mates that are (for the most part, we get good people sometimes) playing like they are still in low level aurics.
Only the best for my stardust princess

Obvious answer is git gud, but is there anything we may do differently that can help us out?
more selective with team mates?
are you using the party finder system?
We are yes
okay i thought you probably were and your experience lines up since auric maelstrom has been determined by fatshark to be equivalent to havoc 16
even though depending on the maelstrom up to 20 is probably more accurate
From havoc 20 onwards you need a full team coordinating together via some sort of voicechat and Ideally, arrange team composition in a way that covers whatever you need + what accomodates the special conditions of each and every single mission individually
We can routinely clear auric maelstrom, outside of crazy modifiers they usually feel like a "cakewalk".
i don't know if it's still meta because i don't trust playing with pubbies but running builds that insta-grant toughness like vet shout and zealot icon were required
What?! Nah they need to grind the lower levels and figure it out first
like if you didn't have at least one or two of those people would just refuse to play
Ok, this is the input that I am looking for, thank you. How do you all go about that? The party finder system usually ends up with people just instant locking ready, no communications. Like I said, it feels like auric players just giving havoc a spin, not people dedicated to havoc progression
So this is why I can’t get passed 22 playing as payker
Tbh that’s not the problem. If someone is playing one of the core classes it’s easy to tell what’s up. With Arby players, which there are many, it’s hard to sus it out because only something like shock mine gives an indicator
You go in this DC
You go to one of the striketeam Finders
#vox-lfg-emea for Europe
#vox-lfg-nasa for American
Etc
Whatever you region is
There, you ask for people to play havoc with you and what havoc rank you wanna attain, and where youre at atm
You also post a striketeam invite there
Then you wait.
Once youre 4 people, you join each other in game and then your corroborate. Who can play what classes. Whats your modifiers. What builds could help here
Etc. Etc.
(Alot of havoc builds and tricks can be found online If none of you have a clue)
And then you start the match
Do people have an aversion to game chat? I kind of want to use that because discord on the shitbox tends to make it slow down hard
I lean very much into horde control and team support via bubble, trying to "zone" via purgatus and zap ranged from time to time via BB. A lot of the time though it seems people around the 20 rank default back into the "just swing at everything mindlessly" mode.
Ingame VC is dead. Textchat is for gg and insults
If you wanna communicate constructively, do it via dc voicechat
Excellent info, thank you!
But… in game vc works? I use it regularly
You and like 5 other people
Damned to pubs yet again
Its dead as in most have it disabled. I have. Annoying as high americans and mentally underdeveloped russian players have seen to that
not everyone
sometimes you get the person with open mic while they're having a conversation with their partner
or mom
Ah ok so i understand now
Same i told the havoc Guy applies to you. Go into your regional lfg channel. Post an invite. Play with those while on VC. I do it all the time.
I can whole heartedly recommend anyone from the ogryn textchat. They are all super nice
Avoid the ~zealots~ gluesniffers
I’ll give it a shot later thanks
lol i feel like a lot of the zealot community swapped over to arbitrators
i feel that's not inaccurate
I feel like it’s a type of zealot
the ones who ran "loner" as their aura?
Mayhaps
it's funny because i remember saying to a friend years ago that loner should count as +1 in coherency because then it wouldn't be useless as a team talent if someone died
but they never did that and they gave it to a dog
haha gave it to a dog. GW mentality
to be fair they're all good dogs
Yea the dog is straight
I’m intentionally avoiding arbitrator for havocs though. Feels like cheating myself doing it first time up the ladder
it needs to be nerfed some more
there's no way it won't be but fatshark is going to let people have their pay2win for a couple months while they're on mandatory summer break
the primary function should be utility rather than free 400k damage
The best unsaid aspect of dog is jumping on a pox walker while you’re playing with auspex
imagine... a talent where your dog can get you up when you're downed... zealot mains are gonna love it
Gonna see an era of true solos with 3 other people in the lobby
Also killing the trapper that got you, so your team can easily free you
i tried to get my dog to attack a DH but it just barked at me
then it attacked a gunner right next to her and she got mad and tried to tear me a new asshole
thank you, doggo
Oddly enough just played a round as 2 arbies 2 oggies and both arbies ran no dog (one was me)
No dawg in my lobby.
He got that dog in him
Do you also play the archer class without bow and arrows?
arbies with no dog is just veteran with extra steps
Veteran but actually strong in melee and tanky.
No I always go stealth archer in skyrim.
Unfortunately, yes
There is no other way to play it
Never did the stealth archer thing in Skyrim. Idk why people needed that. Straight heavy magic and hammer
Elder Scrolls combat is pretty... shit
True
i'll still replay morrowind every couple years
It's just shit melee combat yeah.
Bethesda is kinda shit tbh
So might as well play the cheesiest easiest class.
But, skyrim with mods can be kind of passabble for combat.
Then again people don't play it for the combat, so doesn't matter I guess 
hey now they made some okay football games!
But you need a million mods to overhaul the combat into a third person action game.
I wanted to like Starfield but the loading screens is unplayable
Fartshart should team up with some RPG devs and collab. RPG game with fartshart first person melee combat system.
Starfield, I forced myself to finish it one time and never touched it again, even though I paid for the DLC 
Avowed sucked too.
my condolences
you PAID for the dlc?
bro............
I wanted to play early, at least it was free on Game pass
Darktide melee is hitscan with the illusion of trajectory right?
nah
not exactly
to be fair i bought the deluxe edition of fallout 4 that came in a big crate because "wow fallout new vegas was good i love that game i'm gonna get the next one" and i was too ignorant to know that was an entirely different developer 
it's not like l4d2/tf2/etc.
Fair
it's more of a bunch of boxes that spawn along the path, as far as i remember
you physically swing an invisible object
thats more accurate actually
Swing deez.
which is how the weakspot priority works in this game
the box spawns, it hits the enemy, even if you hit the body, you've also hit a weakspot, and it prioritizes that
Omg I’m sorry. Fallout 4 was on gamepass. I never finished it
The oggy in my last game got more weakspot hits than me. 
Fallout 4 is still good, not as good as 3 and New Vegas, but better than Starfield. It still has the normal Bethesda feeling with exploring and all that, unlike wide as a ocean and deep as a puddle Starfield
you have the highest weakspot rate in every single scoreboard you posted
i don't hate fallout 4 it's just my expectations were entirely different and not met
Yeah this guy got 100 more than me.
Definitely going to use this info tho ty ty
Maybe because he was playing BM oggy shield.
So his heavy 1 just hits 100 heads per swing.
I was playing arby maul.
that has good headtrack
I love the animation with it
I saw with a mod that they made the usual ordo skins (blue, red) for the FGS as well but never released it, any reason behind that?
"fatshark"
To make you buy paid skins
Why are there no free or havoc/hestia skins for arbites?
they haven't released a single ordo docket skin in like 2 years
and it is awfully convenient they made the weapon prestige skins a similar color
"fatshark"
their argument is the arbites came in after the battle for atoma
as if that means anything
like i really don't want to be that guy but considering how much is paid skins compared to vermintide and how much helldivers 2 puts out
come on
come on fatshark you can do better than this
you've done better than this
For that reason what fool would buy those skins tbf... I'm waiting for a proper premium FGS skin
when you have 2.5 million ordo dockets what else are you going to spend them on? 
unless you mean the paid ones in which case the answer is "because those are the cool ones"
But there's no ordo fgs skin that's the og point
oh i'm sorry you mean that specific weapon, i thought in general since there are so many others in the same situation
either way it does seem like there should be more
more of everything
Well it can be applied to all of them potentially but I specifically saw that the FGS Ordo skins do exist in the files but they're unreleased
yeah there's no good reason for them to be unreleased unless they coded it so badly it crashes the game in which case it's still been long enough they should've fixed it
I just don't get it, why bother making it if you don't release it? I guess there could've been a miscom. they made it but never needed it
They will release it at some point
You know all these borders we are getting? They have been in the game since release
Or 99% of them
that's kind of sad, to be honest
It's just fartshart behaviour.
I just want a border that is cool and let's people know I am pro
I don't have that one yet, but when I do I will use it 
Going to show people that console players also can't have a life
With mod they can't tell 100% you're console or not unless spectating.
Since pc gamepass also has the xbox icon.
They can tell because Xbox defaults to typing Gg instead of gg
why flame me
If you type properly on keyboard it's Gg.
Always capitalise first letter.
I always type. Xd
not xD
Heretical
sorrysorry team
I just don't say gg, lost it's meaning a long time ago xd
I say it when I genuinely mean it
In that case I say gj
I get "gj" when I clutch a section solo and rescue the other 3 players
I say gg even in sedition
I say it when we finished the mission without major issues, if someone was clearly trolling I might say "gg except for X" and then leave before they can say anything so they seethe
LOL toxic
I say gg for nearly every game but I remember to do it late. Basically just saying it to myself.
😔

I only say gg when it was a genuine good game with the team playing well.
if mr unsanctioned popped out of nowhere carrying the team's ass I'd just be 
I say more inappropriate stuff in that case 
Takes too long to type on controller, that is why console players are less toxic 
i say gg every time and add ez if we won just barely
This is the way
Type gg ez carry when you do the least. 
Smh
And when you carry just say "next time, do smth"
i always remind the team that the bot did all the work when someone bails in a game and there's a bot vet with us until the end even if it died 15 times
"gg bot carry"
I don't like saying ez, it just sounds like pure braggartry
oops I got botted
it's over for me 😔

what ranged is good against maniacs and if possible also bosses?
Vraks, reconlas
Inferno, Elektro
Voidblast, not good for bosses though
recon las is infernus + ??? and then maniac and unyielding?
Not no spam?
There she is, the havoc carry
Nu. You carry.
:3
What pattern of the blaze force sword do you guys prefer? I’ve been thinking of switching from Illisi to Deimos
depends on what you want it for
good choice
illisi is the worst blaze fs lol
if you want a general purpose fs, obscurus
if you want a more single target oriented fs, deimos
illisi has better trash control, deimos has better single target damage and armor penetration if you get the poke patterns down
if you want the worst fs, illisi
how do I shoot lightening out of my staff
i keep shooting energy balls
what is the bind?
if it's electrokinetic it's the charged attack
Rmb and then lmb
Hopefully it doesn't crash now because you broke your PC
it doesnt let me?
it just makes me shoot energy orbs
Which staff are you using? 
Man why is my x's feed is like reddit's feed.
Full of random accounts I don't follow with fake random bs stories.

Twitter is full of bots, why are you still there? 
my ogryn son built a statue of the emperor out of empty ration canisters... the omnissiah is truly amazing!
electrokinetic
check to make sure your secondary action isn't bound to something else, it should be RMB by default
I am a touch pad player so I did rebind a few controls
bros, I think Eletrokinetic Staff sucks. Am I big noob? Am I missing something?
Then just whatever you are using to block with melee and then shoot
Ye
Maybe, maybe
You need to hold RMB while LMB.
i wouldn't say it sucks but it falls off if you're playing havoc
it switches to my meelee when i do that
it doesn't have great time-to-kill on anything beyond a squishy
Or hold whatever the alt fire button.
every time I use it, it makes me wish I had a gun instead but I play psyker for the cool magic staff
leveling it has been pain and suffering
am using it to stun the swarms of dreg cause I need my team to focus on the plauge ogryn
Sounds like you fucked up your keybinds then, no one but yourself can help you now
Maybe the staff sucks at low level its good when fully upgraded
yeah you might have two actions bound to the same thing
your acting like I cant just press reset binds
Well then press that and then try what we said 
i dont have a mouse bruh
And then bind them differently again without breaking it
That's a bad take.
secondary action is block right?
I'm just a bot man
for melee yes
