Still should have lived that but I decided to anchor so I wouldn't spend 30 minutes kiting

last shore
#

Yeah I ended up tanking these bosses 💀

#

When you died

#

2 went down

#

Captain left

#

I peeked corner when I saw captain switch to beans to kill scab bomber with us in corner and died when captain changed his mind and hit me instead

#

GG

hearty wolf
#

For the captain, you should also have tanked it instead of psyker cos Psyker is better at horde clear

#

Is whatever though

last shore
#

There wasn’t a horde at that point

#

But I saw a scab bomber so was gonna kill it rq then refocus boss but that one peek moment just screwed me

#

I didn’t want us to get caught in that corner with a scab bomb on us

#

Do I need to do a maelstrom each week before Havoc?

#

reset*

jovial juniper
#

No

#

But If at some point you drop to havoc 10

#

Beating an Auric Maelstrom will send you to h16

#

Joined a group and someone couldn't do Havoc. but they didn't know who so we disbanded

i kinda wanna use voidstrike but it just doesnt seem worth it lmao

south gull

Yeah idk, I usually wipe due to the director spawning everthing in at the beginning.

its just a really open map

#

kinda scary

ripe gazelle
#

Do you just not use deimos special? seems like junk

patent mango
#

its bad

jovial juniper
#

Except in this one super niche thing

Where you 4 stack Uncanny/Executor using a single target

Other than that

Hey - I want some advice on my Gunker build :)
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9f688c11-d7ad-4735-820c-17d898e96a31/gunker-v2

Would you change the +15 Toughness in the middle path for another TRegen Skill (Soulstealer or Warp Expenditure)?
If only using a single TRegen Skill is Quietude the best choice or rather Soulstealer? Soulstealer would only proc with Assail, while Quietude also get triggered by Gaze Peril, but Soulstealer has 2.5% more

GamesLantern.com

Psyker build for Warhammer 40k: Darktide, using the Catachan Mk VI Combat Blade and Vraks Mk V Infantry Autogun.

#

Imo you probably shouldn't take Crack of Bone as well as TTS. But I am not a gunker expert

thorn cedar
#

Yea one or the other, depending on your weapons.

#

Both is super overkill and you'll find it impossible to build peril without Scriers active

ripe obsidian
#

This is the bog standard gunker build, with a flex point for preference

#

+15 toughness will result in like +25 toughness due to the order of operations, so it's a fine pick. More value in Havoc. Cruel Fortune results in very fast DD stacks, but not necessary in dense hordes.

gray juniper
# upper sun 🚬

A whole 19 seconds facing the same direction. It’s like death is inevitable at that point

wind wind
dull scroll
#

I'd honestly drop PC for gunker builds, no KF to proc and warpfire stack doesn't get high enough to do ridiculous dmg without purge

vivid scaffold
#

Thanks for all the advice - dropped Crack Of Bone for Soulstealer and Endurance for Warp Unbound :)
I tried Perfectionism (25 DD stacks) with CF first, but still could not manage to keep it above 15 for long, the 5s decay was too harsh for me. Sad because another 10% damage, 20% Crit dmg and 25% WS dmg sounds so juicy but in the end I just regularly lost all my stacks with the quick decay. With 10s I can keep them fairly consistently without CF

jovial juniper
#

You cowered at the sight of BoN though

#

Smh

wispy bay
#

The enemy doesn't get high lighted fast enough to make it works. If they make it like Arby EO, 25 stacks would be viable.

jovial juniper
#

Not with that attitude

deft stump
wispy bay
#

I agree with Vect on Combustion.

thorn cedar
#

Not hitting 25 stacks is operator error.

weary idol
#

what weapons do you think this true survivor psyker was running in my havoc 30 game

deft stump
thorn cedar
#

Extra cleave and attack speed is for brainburst, obviously.

weary idol
#

oh also

potent echo
#

Wounds KEKW_ogryn

dull scroll
#

running wounds on psyker is the biggest red flag

#

your mental is already compromised before the game even began 😏

potent echo
#

Definitely blaming the team if no one picks them up loregryn

jovial juniper
#

Oh you guys don't know

#

Psyker is a glass Cannon

#

Which means going down is inevitable

deft stump
jovial juniper
#

And there's nothing you can do about it

#

So wounds help

How do you even get that tag being garbage water?

I got it playing with a pretty good squad on that one mission where you have to destroy the green meth lab that doesn’t have karnak on a cross so it was super easy

deft stump
regal pumice
#

Tbh they should have reset all havoc related titles with the havoc rework

deft stump
gray juniper
deft stump
#

The best they can do, but will annoy some, is every havoc has it's own penance.

gray juniper
#

Wdym?

deft stump
#

Every new havoc ver comes with their own fomo penances.

#

Many games do it. I think they were trying to avoid it.

regal pumice
deft stump
#

But resetting it feels the same as new fomo.

#

Why better to leave it be.

gray juniper
#

At the end of the day the worst thing that happen is you see a tag and make an assumption that the person is competent then they end up not being so, and you waste some time. Time is always a precious commodity but realistically this is leisure time anyway

#

But at the same, I’d feel really embarrassed to rock a tag and look like a goof in the end

ripe obsidian
#

Everyone has bad days and bad games

gray juniper
#

Yea that’s valid also

#

I know on the flip side you’re liable to get more people latching on hoping for a carry also

tulip kettle
#

i think havoc is designed to be played more than once with the same squad if you fail

tulip kettle
#

if you play a couple games, and one person consistently doesnt pull their weight, then yeah just kick em or leave

deft stump
tulip kettle
#

hahaha yeah

#

im totally not the one who would get kicked playing with yall...

dump stat on the inferno staff?

Peril resistance or whatever its called

#

On every staff

frosty pasture
#

oof. thought it was dmg lol

regal pumice
#

Tbf I think damage is somewhat negligible, I’m not sure though. Maybe I’m thinking of the flamethrower on zealot

gray juniper
# deft stump What title?

I guess just the ones where people assume and go “oh they must be really good” usually a lot of people do havoc forged and talk a big game

gray juniper
regal pumice
#

I think with the flamethrower the damage goes from like 27 to 26

The gun psyker build

#

Gimme a sec

#

Or two

#

Or 240

ok

potent echo

I'm trying to find even a single gunker build on gameslantern but they are all so complete ass

jovial juniper
delicate silo
#

its missing a talent point also what do i do for weapons and curios

wooden sand
#

Don't believe on what the meta players tell you

potent echo
#

What is defense regen

wooden sand
#

Curio modifier

sinful olive
dull scroll
#

I second that question, what EXACTLY is this "defense regen" you talking about

sinful olive
#

That's just recently what I've seen though

dull scroll
#

cause if it's "toughness regen" nobody takes that

sinful olive
#

Curios more than likely the same as staff builds, if I had to guess.

dull scroll
sinful olive
#

Yeah, fgs is goated

potent echo
#

I would say vraks mkV top ranged option but 🫠

dull scroll
#

curio 1x hp 2x toughness, toughness/hp/gunner-res on all

sinful olive
#

Corruption res is sometimes worth taking over toughness or hp if you're trying to take it into havoc. Depends on mods.

dull scroll
#

vraks' up there, it's main advantage is boss weakpoint dmg and close range dmg

#

but overall the las guns are better

deft stump
potent echo
#

Las much easier to use

#

No recoil and less dropoff

#

Infernos makes it less punishing to miss weakspots

#

They probably don't play the game in English

wooden sand
delicate silo
#

Is the quick draw stubborn revolver good

#

Or is laser guns alot betyer

deft stump
delicate silo
#

Whats bistol and what's meleeker

strong gulch
#

bistol = bolt pistol

delicate silo
#

Ok

strong gulch
#

Reover is good. Agripinna is the fan one and is faster paced; works well wit SG. Zarona is the other one and is slower so does make as good use of SG.

#

Abbreviations in the pins. They are more psyker specific or ones that pop up a lot

delicate silo
#

Ok

strong gulch
#

Recon lasgun is better for gunker tho.

ginker = gun psyker

#

Easier to aim, good ammo econ, fast rate of fire + crit strings help a lot

delicate silo
#

Would you happen to know a good gunker build

strong gulch
#

We have talents like mettle and EE (empathic evasion) that fill toughness or make you count as dodging ranged attacks from crits

strong gulch
#

May need some adjustments depending on weapons, playstyle, and personal need.

#

FGS (for great sword) doesn't need Anticipation or Warp Speed, but both of those feel nice with the weapon.

#

For the keystone (DD), if the mission has high density, you can drop cruel fortune for another point or switch from Lingering Influence to perfectionism.

Also depends on how reliable you are at getting your marked target.

#

If you want staff builds, there's some in the 2nd pin

delicate silo
#

What do anticipation do and warp speed

strong gulch
#

anticipation is for and extra dodge and warp speed gives you more movement speed with SG is active

delicate silo
#

I'm sorry but whats sg

spiral condor
#

scriars gaze

strong gulch
delicate silo
#

Ok ty for the help

stone totem
#

Is there any way that this is not one of the worst talents in the game

#

I can't think of any other that actually detriments you unless you build around it

strong gulch
#

It's great.

#

I the meta pick for most left dside staff builds and is meta in havoc

dull scroll
#

unless you running vent, that talent is pretty much a must take

strong gulch
#

Even if running vent in aurics for EK and VB.

dull scroll
#

that is true

strong gulch
#

not with vent / shriek with purg tho

#

Even in havocs. Shriek purg ER with full 60 WR feels like way too much.

analog venture
#

whats the difference between the 3 autoguns?

radiant frigate
#

which three

#

overall classes you mean? like braced, infantry, vigilant?

#

in which case braced puts bullets in a general direction, infantry is more accurate and vigilant is most accurate with specific focus on headshots (and also is burst-fire or semi-auto)

#

different blessing pool too

dull scroll
#

only thing I know about the autoguns is that vraks is meta, everything else poo poo

analog venture
#

i remember forever ago on another character being able to upgrade my gun, is that from the shrine of omnissiah?

#

asking bc i have yet to unlock it

analog venture
#

oh also is there any place to test new abilites and weapons without going into a mission?

strong gulch
#

Yeah. The psykhanium. The meat grinder option. It's across from the shrine of omnissiah

#

It doesn't have the enemy AI turned on, so testing is meh without mods.

plucky flax
strong gulch
#

You can try stuff out tho

potent echo
#

It's better in havocs where quelling isn't free

#

But even in Aurics you can spam more

stone totem
potent echo
#

Don't get hit

#

Shrimply chadgryn

stone totem
#

Ez

plucky flax
#

If you have soulstealer and actually play as a psyker should do it's a non issue.

#

You still gain all toughness after killing like 7 guys.

dull scroll
#

if you get hit constantly enough on this class you need that 30% toughness gen to survive then you are already screwed

analog venture
strong gulch
#

If you're killing and critting, you shouldn't really notice the hit to toughness gen. If you get hit and there's nothing around to quicky fill your toughness, then it hurts

plucky flax
#

I'm pro so I play with ER and don't even take soulstealer.

#

Mettle and quietude only for toughness gen.

radiant frigate
strong gulch
#

I am not pro enough.

plucky flax
#

So you need to get better.

potent echo
#

But if there's nothing around the fill toughness, -30% of 0 is still 0 so it's whatever KEKW_ogryn

strong gulch
#

I take soulstealer

plucky flax
elfin merlin
#

what scrier's gaze talents are needed

#

or stock is good enough

dull scroll
#

what makes it even more a landslide choice is the other talent gives like literally peanut dmg boost

stone totem
strong gulch
radiant frigate
#

now i have to spend more time building peril to get less

elfin merlin

#

Quietude in the corner slightly longer then

spiral condor
potent echo
#

It's not life or death

dull scroll
#

Fartshark fixed it

plucky flax
#

There was a reddit post about er being the worst psyker talent.

#

So you probably got this idea from there.

radiant frigate
#

pots works now?

#

that's epic

potent echo
#

Is crystalline will the strongest talent KEKW_ogryn

plucky flax
#

Darktide redditors claim majority of them play h40 but that's a massive (x) doubt.

potent echo
#

Play is different from win

#

Also H40 in season1 is whatever

strong gulch
#

Make crystalline will proc unlucky for some

potent echo
#

Will that even be good staregryn

strong gulch
#

no

dull scroll
#

make psyker explosion do ogryn nuke dmg

elfin merlin
#

what's the best curios layout for psyker melee

plucky flax
#

Oh there was a post about struggling in havoc and the OP got declined by all the havoc lobbies he requested to join.

elfin merlin
#

3 toughness or 2 toughness + hp/stam

dull scroll
#

then crystalline can be the ultimate meme build 😏

potent echo
#

Gamers being discriminated by gamers

plucky flax
#

I wrote "if you're good enough you'd self host and get h40 rank yourself rather than asking to join and cry about being declined" - paraphrasing. Then I got flamed and downvoted to hell.

potent echo
#

The buffed psyker boom so much

dull scroll
#

"host yourself" is the ultimate havoc trigger

potent echo
#

I would know because I started to play more shield KEKW_ogryn

tulip kettle
#

the most cutting thing

#

is when you say "rehosting"

dull scroll
#

funny enough it used to be only the host derank, now everyone deranks and people still don't want to host

strong gulch
#

boom so strong it yeets you through the map

plucky flax
#

Some people would never host but cry when they can't join a lobby.

tulip kettle
#

then 3 of you go off and play again

potent echo
#

My own assignment is like level 22 Sitgryn

#

Self reporting

tulip kettle
#

hosting means nothing once you are 40 you dont derank at all

dull scroll
#

Once you are 40 you "made it" and now can spam meme builds

plucky flax
#

I accept plenty of rank 29~39 people though since they requested to join a h40 map they must be h40 ready right? Kapp

Bruh moments after bruh moments.

Was he a gazeker or shrieker

oh wait, he switch place with the arby nvm

plucky flax

He was bubble inferno wtf

dull scroll

thought it was the arby that bailed

tulip kettle
#

easiest way to get wins imo is 4 arbs

dull scroll
#

no it's not lol, 4 arby lobbies everywhere nowadays and they are all dogshit

tulip kettle
#

they need to be good players still

potent echo

4 competent players (any class) is the true answer KEKW_ogryn

tulip kettle
#

and you cant have 2 running same builds

deft stump
potent echo
plucky flax
#

No it works really well.

#

But obviously does nothing to red guys.

potent echo
#

Rip

#

I still don't know how red works

plucky flax
potent echo
#

If they are low HP they go red?

plucky flax
#

Since bubble don't become the huddle beacon anymore.

#

Yeah if they hit 50% hp they become red (attack faster, cc immune, do more damage)

#

Red by itself is hard but playable. Red + purple is just hell.

dull scroll
#

and move faster, reds are real terrors

strong gulch
#

worst is red + purple + gas

deft stump
plucky flax
dull scroll
#

red + purple is very bad when you add purge to the mix, because your dot dmg can mass trigger rage without killing them and they heal back to full

plucky flax

with reds VB becomes very sus

plucky flax

And then Syllo walked into range.

potent echo
#

They all just become monstrosity essentially

#

I guess arby bush can still stagger, or totally no

plucky flax
#

With good damage you just burst elites down so it's hard normally but playable. But when red combined with purple healing aura, the red guys become full hp again and keep healing it's just gg

#

If you're in a tight space.... nooooo

deft stump
potent echo
#

How can they do this to us

dull scroll
#

the best way to carry through red + purple is at the end of day just overwhelming damage, aka purge vent

that i might unironically just practice bubble knight if theres another inferno

Why so?

Just quell often

vestal trench

something about the faster charge rate from nexus throws me off

plucky flax

Until youre more used then try min maxing for warp rider

vestal trench
#

i can afford not to hyperfocus on the peril meter on the other builds

strong gulch
#

why nexus if you're doing rending shockwave?

#

BM helps a lot too

#

You can try VB in non havocs to get a better feel for it before the quell speed nerf.

The loop is blast quell blast quell

#

If it's too much to handle for now, you can take BM, ER, and inner tranq to help with peril management.

it's the whole leaning to warp ride at 90 range that fucks me up 💀

It helps if you use the trueperil mod

vestal trench

i think it fucks me up less on melee gunker because assail at least goes up in multiples of 5

Hi psyker chat why is illisi bad even though it’s the only one you can stroke

deft stump
#

See avatar? That's more for general. And no, if I had like $50 for 10, I rather go Chaos Sister for heresy WH stuff...

potent echo
#

You can stroke big illisi

#

But because it's big you stroke it slowly

deft stump
radiant frigate
#

also yes big illisi with overheads and shanks exists now

zinc comet
#

That’s a shame stroking my shit makes the class a lot more fun

radiant frigate
#

you can still stroke big illisi

potent echo
#

Illisi got better compared to previous patches

radiant frigate
#

or you can just run illisi because you like it

potent echo
#

Because malefic works both ways now

#

It's just other stuff is better

radiant frigate
#

oh yeah that too

potent echo

It's not that the illisi got worse

it's that other stuff got better

I’ll keep in mind the use case of edging while in elevators

They said you can edge in elevators it’s gotta be good

marble crater
#

Illisi is for hordes, deimos is for single targets, obscurus is kinda in between, but weird
both the Force Greatswords are generalist weapons

wraith forge
#

So I did get the correct info, nice

#

Is there any way to find groups for Twins anymore or is that mission just dead and I'm never getting insignia?

marble crater
#

I honestly have no idea what even happened to that mission, I know it's in the campaign, so maybe playing that and then looking for a team once you reach that mission is an option, no idea how that will work for the insignias though

elfin merlin

how much peril should i try to maintain if i run peril related talents

marble crater

70 - 80 maybe? As much as you are comfortable with while giving yourself some room for emergency situations

#

I don't know KEKW_ogryn

I only saw it when playing through the new campaign

elfin merlin

is quail the best blitz for it ?

Quail? sus you mean assail?

elfin merlin
#

uh

#

yeah

#

i think

cold geode
elfin merlin
#

i have dementia

zinc comet
#

Assail is the one on the right

elfin merlin
#

idk the flying rock shit

marble crater
#

The best blitz depends on your build really, of course you can play anything with anything, but ideally you pick something that fits the build

elfin merlin
#

i sold my brain to Frateris Militia

elfin merlin
#

what's brain burst even good for

#

everyone keep shitting on it

marble crater
#

Kinetic Flayer KEKW_ogryn

elfin merlin
#

what does that do

marble crater
#

BB is kinda bad, but the add on is nice, it's free damage and triggers BB on elites and specials on attacks

wraith forge
zinc comet
#

It’s the one that randomly casts brain burst on elites and specialists

elfin merlin
#

ok

#

i see

elfin merlin
marble crater
#

A lot more people would play assail if it didn't prevent us from picking psy aura on the left side

elfin merlin
#

so the only people who opt for assail are either knight or berserker ?

marble crater
#

What do you mean by that?

elfin merlin
#

people who commited to melee psyker

#

either bubble knight or

#

you know

#

scrier's gaze and charge in

marble crater
#

Not the only, but most popular choice for those, yes

#

For staves you usually go brain burst, or god forbid, smite

elfin merlin
#

alr

potent echo
#

Staves assail 🤚

elfin merlin
sullen rapids
#

i don’t see a reason to use assail with trauma or purg

modest perch
#

trauma assail scriers bfgs

sullen rapids
marble crater
# elfin merlin also is smite good orno

Smite is good, the people who use it are usually not, because they use it too much and/or in situations where it's not needed or makes things worse.
Used correctly smite is really powerful, used incorrectly smite is bad. Doesn't help that it's one of the most obvious abilities in the entire game, so if you use it wrong everyone will see KEKW_ogryn

modest perch
#

its more of a melee scriers thing

potent echo
#

Staff scrier is totally fine

marble crater
#

I can't find the ethical smite guide Sitgryn

potent echo

But like it's not very synergistic

elfin merlin

does anymore here has smite scrier build

#

for melee

Smite scrier isn't a thing staregryn

It's possible

marble crater
potent echo

Bonus points if bonbon pimple

marble crater
#

Depends on the staff, which one?

elfin merlin
#

generally

marble crater
#

95% of the time you will charge it up with the secondary attack and then fire it at the enemy

#

Which enemy or enemies depends on the staff

elfin merlin
#

ok

#

also what's normal force sword good for

potent echo
marble crater
#

Illisi is for hordes, deimos is for single targets, obscurus is kinda in between, but weird

elfin merlin
marble crater
#

No idea, it's not as good at what it does as deimos or greatswords, but I don't think it sucks and is unusable

elfin merlin
#

i see

wraith forge
#

Calling Illisi bad isn't exactly accurate, it's just that other stuff are better now

The consequences of not working till 10

#

Smite and gaze is so funny to think about. So you hit 100 then hit it again or something?

patent jacinth
#

I know someone who ran it unironically

#

They also think that armor types should be removed

gray juniper
#

I’d wonder why

#

That’s a good chuckle for the day

potent echo
#

I didn't even think about how smite stops at 100 so you can't even profit off unlimited peril KEKW_ogryn

It was worse than I thought staregryn

I like the one with overhead heavies from both sides instead of the poke

Feels awkward to aim the poke heavy for some reason, so I just use the other one that has a poke heavy after a push (or was it push attack?)

After push attack

elfin merlin

Have you tried either of them whatthefuck_heresy

elfin merlin

not yet

i only have 106 hours in this game

Try stuff before asking KEKW_ogryn

elfin merlin

why not ask and try later

potent echo

Because our advice is not gonna make any sense

elfin merlin
#

nothing make sense in darktide anyway

summer prairie
#

mk6 has more convenient heavy chain for elite groups, mk8 more convenient horde clear lights

potent echo
#

Also there's an entire psyker guide in the pins

marble crater
# elfin merlin clarify

Both are equally great, half the psykers use 6 and the other half 8, one is not clearly better than the other, so it just depends on which one you like better

elfin merlin
#

i see

marble crater
#

6 is slightly better single target
8 is slightly better for hordes
But both do both things very well and the differences are not big enough, imo

plucky flax
#

In havoc I only see mk6.

marble crater
#

8 has fully horizontal lights for hordes and vertical heavies for single target, so I prefer that because it's easy to use without any combos I need to remember

whats better for psykers resistince to snipers or gunners

jovial juniper
#

If you have 200 HP with 1 sniper res you can tank 2 sniper shots

#

Gunner resist is just generally good

wraith forge
#

But isn't Gunner res a fraud? Because it only applies to the infinitely shooty ones

jovial juniper
#

Yeah those are gunners

#

Also applies to Reapers

wraith forge
#

But I mean the basic burst shooters are gunners too, just not that kind

jovial juniper
#

They are shooters or stalkers

wraith forge
#

Very well then

#

So then the 3 curios should have 1 Sniper res 2 Gunner res? Or 1-1 and smth else?
I hate curios... They're complicated to me

marble crater
#

You can just do 3 health, 3 toughness, 2 gunner, 1 sniper

rigid moss
#

Personally I like Toughness / Stamina Regeneration / Combat Ability Regeneration as a baseline and rarely diverge from that.

#

Not sure if that's optimal but feels like the most universally useful picks to me.

wraith forge
#

I was thinking 3 tough / 3 cooldown / 2 gunner / 1 snip

#

And all 3 are toughness baseline curios

marble crater
#

You can do that, corruption might become a problem though, maybe switch 1 toughness curio for health

rigid moss
#

This I find hard to decide myself. I run 3x toughness baseline as well because as Psyker you usually have a billion different toughness regeneration talents and that's where most of your survivability is, right?

#

but that doesn't mean that the corruption argument isn't fully valid

deft stump
wraith forge
#

I use 2x tough 1x hp atm but I've always been running it like this idk how bigger of a problem corruption would be, gotta test and see I guess

marble crater
#

Depends on how often you stand in gas, eat bursters to the face, take chip damage through toughness

#

Might not be a problem at all

pine ore
#

I always found toughness a better choice

biggest source of corruption in a normal run is bonbon
