Yeah that's the class

pale prairie
#

Melee psyker is op as long as you know how to avoid dying

opaque pollen
#

i am forced to stay.... COHERENCY?

#

WHY

jovial juniper
#

You're not forced

opaque pollen
#

im joking and yeah i learned that lol

pale prairie
#

And BUBBLE

opaque pollen
#

so do i dodge ranged autos as soon as their barrel lights up or right after

#

i pretty much got melee dodges great. just dodge on sound

Enduring faith and duellist at minimum are central, scourge might as well be taken since it's on the way to enduring faith, invocation of death is also crazy strong but sure

#

Aye we are

broken carbon
#

its a very strong talent, crits or no

white valley
#

It's a far better talent with crits

broken carbon
#

invocation of death is zealot's best talent, but you can run without it

#

the main issue with IoD is that the other CDR options arent as good

#

IoD needs to be turned to 200% total CDR, not 300%, pious cutthroat needs a change, and martyrs purpose needs to be made useful

#

you can run without IoD though, absolutely

white valley
#

But this isn't a huge deal, I'm not saying relic blade bad, just that it offers no inherent crit synergy

broken carbon
#

you said its not as good as people say due to a lack of crit synergy

#

my point is that a lack of crit synergy is irrelevent to the relic blade's power

white valley
#

No, I said it's not as good as people say and listed a myriad reasons

white valley
#

It has strong horde clear but there's better weapons for that, it has okay single-target damage, and works very well into packs of elites

broken carbon
#

great horde clear, and great single target

#

its not as good as say, hsword for horde clear, or DS for single target

broken carbon
#

but it does both well enough to be OP

white valley
#

The single-target is frankly quite average

broken carbon
#

not really

white valley
#

Into Carapace and Unyielding especially

broken carbon
#

yes i know its with combat stim, but my point is that its single target is plenty good

#

its above average

#

and it deals enough carapace damage to one shot with chastise

I wish the Eviscerator were on par with the Relic Blade

#

Feels like Relic Blade does everything Evis does, but better. Except maybe boss damage.

radiant frigate
#

Yes

#

also funny crusher onetaps

broken carbon
#

but with the changes to evis

ripe obsidian
broken carbon
#

evis is much closer to relic blade in general, but still is below due to having to saw for ogryns

Perfect strike gives you effectively 300% more cleave on crits and allows you to ignore carapace hitstop

ripe obsidian
jovial juniper
broken carbon
#

chastise trick one crusher, then chain rev oneshot as many as u want

#

as for a general build

broken carbon
#

this is mk3 evis

#

mk15 can still use perfect strike but rampage shred is also a good option

gray juniper
white valley
#

Also used fotf

broken carbon
#

and yes you chastise when u want big single target damage

white valley
#

The weapon's good! I am not hating on it, I just think it's not quite as amazing as people make it out to be

broken carbon
#

it is though

ripe obsidian
broken carbon
#

my point is that it is extremely strong and needs to be tuned down

white valley
#

Agree to disagree then

radiant frigate
#

it is absolutely as epic as we all say

white valley

#

i havent used mk15 since they buffed evis so i couldnt tell u how good it is now but i know its much better

anyone keep crashing on this update?

white valley
#

A crusher mixed in with the maulers? Cleave the maulers and once they're down you can saw the crusher

ripe obsidian
broken carbon
#

for reaching crusher oneshots (mk3 specifically) u need to chastise trick though

white valley
ripe obsidian
white valley
#

Nah you're not gonna be spamming lights on crushers even with perfect strike

ripe obsidian
#

I used Evis 15 for like 400 levels. I know it can kill Ogryn enemies. D:

broken carbon
#

are you asking if just cleaving through a crusher is any noticeable damage?

#

because if so, no

#

its not really that much

ripe obsidian
#

Someone was expressing that perfect strike made cleaving through Crushers a thing. I was wondering if that was even worth doing.

white valley
#

Not to kill the crusher

broken carbon
#

but being able to cleave through so you can deal with chaff before focusing on the crusher is still helpful

white valley
#

It's more so that it lets you ignore the crusher for a bit

broken carbon
#

and the additional cleave is generally very helpful as well

zinc phoenix
broken carbon
#

also helps prevent utter despair against bulwarks, as u can cleave their shields as well

opaque pollen
#

heya im having a hard time deciding between queitude and warp expendature, is there are particular instance where i would not take both?

white valley
ripe obsidian
#

Any peril you generate that Warp Expenditure would benefit you, you have to quell it, which Quietude benefits 2x as much.

white valley
#

I mean that in a situation where there's a crusher and chaff, or a crusher and other lighter elites, you can cleave through the crusher to deal damage to the smaller units and clean them up while still paying attention to the crusher's attacks

ripe obsidian
#

Quietude does work with passive quelling and shriek/SG quell as well. Not just active

opaque pollen
#

well im going melee psyker with the greatsword

#

idk if that changes anything

ripe obsidian
#

I don't take Quietude on any non-SG build, I believe. And even then I dislike it.

opaque pollen
#

but since im getting scrier ig they kinda work with eachother i dunno

ripe obsidian
#

Meleeker doesn't benefit as much from Soulstealer

#

So Quietude helps fill in the gap.

opaque pollen
#

i figured with expendeture and scrier, i pop scrier and just regenerate my toughness

#

but i get that i'll go q

#

im guessing i just build a bunch of crit and infinitely dodge on crit

ripe obsidian
#

Mettle will do more for you than Warp Expenditure

opaque pollen
#

mettle?

ripe obsidian
#

And as you said, Empathic Evasion is very good for crits

opaque pollen
#

yeah im going heavy crit

#

as much as i can

ripe obsidian
#

Also a movespeed boost.

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

And most meleeker builds use Assail, so Mettle into Perfect Timing is a huge assail boost.

ripe obsidian
#

It is directed at Quietude

last shore
#

Anyone crashing ?

#

Keep crashing and I’ve never crashed before

ripe obsidian
#

I think I use Quietude solely on BCoB+SG builds, because it makes each kill worth like 4 more toughness

pale prairie
# last shore Anyone crashing ?

I haven’t booted today yet. But I have to say I am not mocking you but your name and this problem make me chuckle a little

ripe obsidian
#

They fixed the buff bar, only they didn't

pale prairie
#

That’s a good point do you have the better buff management mod?

ripe obsidian
#

They made it worse than either Better Buff Management or Uptime, both of which fixed the issue.

pale prairie
#

I am wondering if there is interference

ripe obsidian
#

Fatshark broke it in a new and exciting way

No I don’t have these mods

I tried the temp fix mod

Because fatshark is working on vermintide 3 and darktide 2

#

Trust

brave drift
#

this means they take 6% more warp damage per stack right?

white valley
summer prairie
#

It's more because it's multiplicative

In other words, you’ll notice it kind of sucks using it

ripe obsidian
#

There's no merit to hiding these things from players.

#

It's not meant to be a mystery.

#

If this were Blue Prince or Disco Elysium or something, sure, hide mechanics for the player to discover.

#

But this is just bad documentation

gray juniper
#

It’s far too enigmatic

#

If people already know what talents do, they will spend less time playing the game to find out loregryn

#

my brain is so fried from today i cant form questions 😭

ripe obsidian
#

I already spend less time playing to look through code

#

And make spreadsheets

I need to make a spreadsheet of damage multipliers for @buoyant maple . Probably going to do that tonight

marble crater

#

There's that new humongous spreadsheet made by Reginald

ripe obsidian
#

I don't have any idea what that spreadsheet is. I have never watched his stuff

#

Or any Darktide youtuber, really

#

i give up catSobbing back to staring at the talent tree

white valley
#

It compares clear times of weapons against specific scenarios

opaque pollen
#

which greatsword mark is better?

#

or do they have their own purposes

white valley
#

Mk6 afaik

opaque pollen
#

yeah im liking the look of that heavy dmg

#

mm

ripe obsidian
#

Mk6 has much better heavies. Mk8 has somewhat better horde clear.

opaque pollen
#

eh i have enough horde clear with lights, i need heavies to deal with certain enemies

white valley
#

The poke heavy is crazy

ripe obsidian
#

Which is why Mk6 is better

opaque pollen
#

😄

ripe obsidian
#

Mk8 has a better poke as the push attack followup, but it's slow to get out

radiant frigate

mk6 also has access to strikedown-type attacks from any point of its combos

Was there some weird dude standing around, talking to you?

jovial juniper
white valley
#

Clandestium Gloriana is the map

ripe obsidian
#

I don't know why Mk8's push attack heavy is stronger. It appears to be the same damage profile.

#

But I could swear it does like 15% more damage than Mk6 H2

#

Gonna have to test again

radiant frigate
#

it is stronger because it is the only real way the mk8 has to get into a single target sequence

#

and push attack is time tax

ripe obsidian
#

I'm looking at the code, I mean

#

They both have a damage profile of heavy_force_sword_stab_2h

#

Unless I am missing something, which I probably am. Does the Mk8 have a higher base damage, maybe?

#

The Mk6 stab sets the power_level to 425. That might be lower? Not sure how that mechanic works, honestly.

#

Okay, it looks like the default is 500. So 425 would actually be 15% lower. This is convoluted.

opaque pollen
#

i just hit thing and it die and i hit thing harder if it got more hp

#

and crit go brrrr

ripe obsidian
#

I need to test this in-game. I can't tell if the overall weapon rank impacts damage or not. It maybe does.

opaque pollen
#

well i leveled up my greatsword and it didnt seem to affect the numbers

ripe obsidian
#

Yeah, this is why I am confused.

#

I can't tell if power_level is just always at 500 unless modified, or if it's tied to the weapon rating

opaque pollen
#

i think its just showing how powerful a weapon is. like all damage numbers are gonna be the same but a power level 80 weapon isnt going to have 2 blessings and 2 stats and all that. but an orange rarity would

#

wait

#

you can have a like power level 200 weapon and it be orange

zealous wing
#

so what specifically qualifies as "critical peril"?

#

90-100, or 95-100?

pale prairie
#

Exploding definitely counts

zealous wing
#

lmao

pale prairie
#

I think I heard 80 and above

zealous wing
#

so for KF i'd want to hover around 60 to 80

pale prairie
#

KF??? You mean kinetic flayer?

#

Or are you talking kinetic deflection?

zealous wing
#

flayer

pale prairie
#

I think for this it means 100%/you’re about to explode

#

That way you can’t benefit from any kind of peril venting talents like battlemeditation proccing on the elite kill and saving your life

zealous wing
#

for deflection, it always stops at 97

#

so sounds about right then

fresh reef
zealous wing
#

so then trying to hover around 85 might be better for this build

#

i was told as high as im comfortable with, but, looking at the tree, too high

pale prairie
#

If it’s an EK build you are wanting to squeeze every cast you can before having to vent

#

Really with any staff

zealous wing
#

i like to think im taking the change back to staff ok

#

tap quell, attack, tap quell, attack, if something big then go lower than just a tap

#

but, if i dont need to hover 95, why hurt myself

marble crater
#

If you take Empyric Resolve you can tap quell, attack, attack, attack, attack, tap quell, attack, attack, attack

zealous wing
#

dom is making me learn this tree

#

Yes that’s the meta

#

Minus bubble

#

And aura

pale prairie
#

Oh wait never mind elite damage aura

gray juniper
#

I think that’s for an EK staff use

idk i was told to make this tree and taken to auric maelstrom so honestly im still a lil lost

and yeah EK

zealous wing
#

supposedly im doing well but it doesnt feel like it

pale prairie
zealous wing
#

i miss emotional support revolver

gray juniper
#

Mine for EK looks similar to that because how you’ll operate. You’re going to target a lot of elites and be on the staff about half the time or more. He wants you to take elite damage buff and use vent sparingly so you can stay on staff longer and kill more precisely with it. It should work out that you manage to kill enough elites and mobs that psychic vampire works over warp fire dependence as you won’t be using it as much.

zealous wing
#

but i was told this is necessary

marble crater

#

ik :(

pale prairie
#

I guess why not take from wildfire and get warp battery if it’s about staff damage and not vent

zealous wing
#

but, i can still take the build into uprising and malice whenever i want and succeed, so i can get it out of my system there at least

ripe obsidian

#

Alright so is this a waste of talents if I am losing out on +15 toughness and Quick Shards all to get Anticipation?

ripe obsidian
#

Is that for Havoc?

#

If so, drop OwtW

zealous wing
#

it was for havoc and maelstrom

ripe obsidian
#

+15 Toughness is better

zealous wing
#

oh not me

ripe obsidian
#

You need 80% peril for OwtW to be better than +15 toughness.

pale prairie
#

Yeah I remember your math Six I am looking for reassurance

ripe obsidian
#

Here's how often I am at 80% or higher

#

If this one is accurate

#

Might not be. It has bad Warp Siphon values

#

Hold on

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

Oh, that is the same one twice

#

Argh

pale prairie

gray juniper
ripe obsidian
#

Rough estimate, I am at 80%+ peril 25% of the game

white valley
#

So would you say empathic evasion is far better than owtw?

ripe obsidian
#

Oh yeah. EE is way better

#

I'm usually at like 40% crit rate on Inferno

white valley
#

Hmmm

ripe obsidian
#

EE uptime is also around 25%, so immune to ranged damage a quarter of the game

white valley
#

I will have to give it a try, although I do run bubble

ripe obsidian
#

I only use OwtW to path to Shriek

#

Every non-Shriek build is free of its taint

gray juniper
white valley
#

It's still 10% tdr even at 0 peril though

ripe obsidian
#

I will briefly recap my math

gray juniper
zealous wing
#

currently, i've needed the vent desperately and it was a mere second or two from saving my life

#

usually less

gray juniper
#

Btw if you happened to watch my kill cam don’t copy anything to specific I did. I’ve come back from a break and haven’t used voidblast in a long time. It was all shits and giggles play

I was upset with myself today KEKW_ogryn

gray juniper
pale prairie
ripe obsidian
# white valley It's still 10% tdr even at 0 peril though

If it's between +15 toughness and OwtW, you need 80% peril for OwtW to be better.

My base toughness in Havoc is usually 90 or 100, give or take. With +49% toughness from curios, a +15 node is 22.5 toughness, pushing me to 112.5.

OwtW needs to be at 25% to match that. But it can't be at exactly that, as it scales 4.6% every 20 peril. 0 is 10%, 20 is 14.6, 40 is 19.2, 60 is 23.8, 80 is 28.4, and 100 is 33.

So 60% is approximately 21.4 effective toughness, which is slightly lower than a +15 node. 80 is about 25.7 effective toughness, and 100 peril is 29.7. If you are at 80% or higher often, OwtW is more effective toughness. If you are not, +15 is.

#

The math changes slightly depending on curios and builds.

gray juniper

In non-havoc, OwtW is better.

#

The way TDR works is actually a sub-1 multiplier. So toughness_damage_taken = 0.95 or what have you. It stacks multiplicatively. I am not sure how that affects things. I will ponder.

white valley
#

Gotta look at the floor and in front of you at the same time

#

And be veeery careful with poxbursters

white valley
pale prairie
white valley
#

A zealot with enduring faith and benediction has 57.5% TDR iirc

white valley
ripe obsidian
pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

But the multiplicative nature of it makes the math unintuitive

zealous wing
#

btw how exactly does the havoc level work? i saw that if you fail 3 times you go down one, any penalty for not playing it at all?

white valley
#

Nah it's simple

ripe obsidian
#

Like, a 20% damage resist versus gunners is functionally 25% more HP versus gunners

#

So stacking gunner resist is not actually diminishing returns

gray juniper
white valley
ripe obsidian
#

2 gunner resist curios are about 156% EHP v Gunners, 3 is 195%

white valley
#

Huh

ripe obsidian
#

This might mean OwtW is slightly better than I think. Hence the pondering

white valley
#

But 3 curios is like 48% DR

ripe obsidian
#

Yeah, 48% resist is 195% HP, since you're taking about half damage

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

As I said, unintuitive

#

If you had 66% resist, it would be effectively 300% HP versus gunners

white valley
#

Yeah you're right that makes sense

pale prairie

How good OwtW is. I didn't factor in the stacking with other 5% nodes.

And I think my build has 3 of them

Thonk_ParadoxPaws what if OwtW new meta

ripe obsidian
jovial juniper
#

I either kill the gunner

#

Or die

#

No in between

#

i'm starting to see why some of yall need 20+ build profiles

white valley
#

Nowadays I run 3xCDR, 3xtoughness, 2xgunner and 1x stam regen on my psyker curios

ripe obsidian
#

I use 3x CDR, 3x toughness, 3x gunners

white valley
#

@zealous wing to elaborate a bit on smite, smite offers poor damage output but basically shuts down enemy AI, this generally makes missions easier but slower, and boring for your teammates, it is also completely useless against bosses and during modifiers that provide CC immunity such as Nurgle's Blessing and Final Toll

ripe obsidian
#

Yeah, 90 toughness with 3x 5% nodes is 85.7% toughness damage taken. Gotta apply that to both sides

#

I will return

zealous wing
#

personally i'd prefer assail, but, that cant be swapped as easily in this tree as BR and Smite coulda been. ah well

#

pain it is

white valley
#

Blitzes are tools

#

Not weapons

zealous wing
#

ye

white valley
#

BR always has a place as a tool to snipe bombers, snipers, and the like

pale prairie
zealous wing
#

my goal was a utility build to begin with, but i was told to never even touch BR on this build

white valley
#

Although personally with EK I'd run assail

zealous wing
#

i'd hardly call 2 targets at a time CC 😭

white valley
#

But I never play EK anyways kek

ripe obsidian
#

Okay. Math is mathed.

The proper breakpoint is 40% peril.

zealous wing
#

thats...

#

so much more reasonable wtf

ripe obsidian
#

+15 is better at 59% or lower peril

#

OwtW is better at 60% or higher

#

At least with 90 base toughness

pale prairie
#

You don’t even need to full cast if you’re scared and need space

pale prairie
#

: (

ripe obsidian
#

Not accounting for other boosts:

(90 + 22.5) / 0.857 for the smol TDR nodes is 131.272 effective toughness.

90 / (0.857 * 808) = 130.06 at 40% peril.

90 / (0.857 * 0.762) = 137.83 at 60%

90 / (0.857 * 0.716) = 146.67 at 80% peril.

Then 156.74 at 100% peril.

#

But you do need 3x smol TDR nodes for that math to math

#

If you're going CDR aura, you have 2 guaranteed.

#

A third is guaranteed from Warp Siphon

zealous wing
#

k the range on vent is surprisingly large

and yeah smite isnt super versatile but, trying to figure out a "i got thrown into a crowd" solution

tulip kettle
#

its as i said really

#

block

zealous wing
#

skissue ik

tulip kettle
#

take stock

marble crater
tulip kettle
#

dodge to safety

#

and dont forget

#

with any force sword, you can "push attack" stuff

#

and it will throw it away from you

ripe obsidian
#

With only 2 5% TDR nodes, you still need 80% peril for OwtW to beat +15

marble crater
#

You should always push attack bursters, to throw them as far away as possible thumbsup_ogryn

tulip kettle
#

it only hits 1 target, but say you were trapped in by crushers, you could try to push attack one to make a gap for yourself

#

the biggest thing for survivng on psyker is not getting into that position in the first place

#

its all about positioning and moving correctly as best you can to avoid those things becoming problems and getting surrounded

zealous wing
#

while reading this i hear soul blaze crack some unsuspecting souls skull. didnt know that counted as an attack kek

tulip kettle
#

yes indeed!

#

and thats a big part of one of the hidden combos you have

#

its actually "kinetic flayer" doing that

#

which is why we took it

zealous wing
#

ye

tulip kettle
#

so when you shriek at a big blob with some elites and trash at high peril

tulip kettle
#

everything will get 6 stacks of blaze

zealous wing
#

3 was 60%

#

i think

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

then KF will pop one of the elites

#

and all the stuff around gets another 3 stacks because of perilous combustion

#

and now everything just burns

marble crater
ripe obsidian
#

Actually, I am wrong again. OwtW is lerped, not flat like Warp Rider.

Wait. Warp Rider is also lerped.

What isn't? Warp Nexus?

I am living a lie.

zealous wing
#

poor six

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

OwtW with 90 base toughness and 3x 5% TDR nodes beats +15 toughness at 43.48% peril.

OwtW with 100 toughness and 3x 5% TDR nodes beats +15 toughness at 36.38% peril.

upper sun
#

you think fatshark has a cheatsheet with all their variables on it

ripe obsidian

and they have to reprint it 5 times a day because they keep losing it

marble crater
#

I'm worried Six might peril irl because of trying to understand the game

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
upper sun

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

Yeah. I thought it was stepped every 20%

upper sun
tulip kettle
#

for warp rider? or OWtW?

pale prairie
#

“Hey it’s my turn to have the hard disk!!!!”

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

yeah they are both linear increases

ripe obsidian
ripe obsidian
upper sun
#

most i got was it being 25% of the main target damage and capped to 376~

white valley
#

So owtw is a bit better than initially thought because it scales linearly

ripe obsidian
#

Yes

#

And because I didn't account for the 5% TDR nodes

#

Like a fool

white valley
#

So my talent tree has been perfect all this time

#

Wonderful

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

six doing a karien

ripe obsidian
#

I'd estimate I'm over the breakpoint for OwtW maybe 70% of the time ingame

#

Hm.

zealous wing
#

new meta just dropped 🗣️ kek

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

i mean honestly OWtW was always meta

ripe obsidian
#

I need a mod that tells me what my peril is at any point in the game.

white valley
zealous wing
#

oh yeah dom btw, would warp battery be worth for the way you want me to practice?

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

warp battery is great

ripe obsidian
#

I can maybe try to make that. I haven't modded before.

tulip kettle
#

but with the testing we have done, the issue with it is

ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

you arent often going to be hitting the 5 or 6 charges

ripe obsidian
#

I want to know exactly what my peril is for the length of a game

tulip kettle
#

especially if you have to drop psychic vampire or wildfire

ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

its better, in my opinion, to consistently have 4 charges than sometimes have 6

white valley
zealous wing
#

tbh when i was on my old build i was capping out pretty often tbh, so its doable, though cant confirm on higher diffs than malice

tulip kettle
#

yeah it might feel that way, and its all about what you are doing

#

but look at it like this

#

with the build you have, getting those extra 2 charges is going to reduce the CD on your shriek by around 3 sconds

#

if you shriek when at 6 charges

white valley
#

My live reaction when my 6 warp charges reduce my ability's cooldown by 45%

pale prairie
#

I absolutely agree with not picking warp battery dom but I only suggested it cause I thought they were practicing peril management and not trying to maximize shriek uptime

tulip kettle
#

which is roughly equivalent to killing 2 elites

marble crater
#

Why take extra charges, when you can just kill more enemies and get the cooldown reduction with psy aura

zealous wing
#

the number of times i've already exploded right, and i mean RIGHT before the cooldown was over was just painful

#

maybe another cooldown on a curio then

tulip kettle
#

hahaha yeah that happens 🙂

#

you really should have all 3 with 4% CDR already yes

#

but i would suggest

pale prairie
#

12% is better than the aura

zealous wing
#

oh shit youre right 😭

tulip kettle
#

its better for you to learn to quell

zealous wing
#

they are all already there

#

i DO quell 😭

tulip kettle
#

im sure!

zealous wing
#

shit hits the fan sometimes

tulip kettle
#

exactly

marble crater
#

Quell... more

tulip kettle
#

as i said earlier, i dont think the build is the issue

zealous wing
#

i have learned a better hover threshold tho

tulip kettle
#

its jus a practice thing

ripe obsidian
#

So far I have averaged like 4% more Shrieks per minute with Warp Battery than Wildfire

marble crater
pale prairie
# zealous wing i DO quell 😭

It’s not about quelling it’s about fighting the panic that says “I know my peril is high but the enemies are right there and I am scared”

zealous wing
#

looked at how KF actually worked, i need to be below 97 peril, so hovering at 95 was... not beneficial

#

lmao

tulip kettle
#

getting faster at swapping to your melee and quelling when you need is gonna go much further for you

tulip kettle
#

yeah, with EK, what you can do outside ofhavoc

ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

is quell to around 60%

#

then get to blastin

#

once you hit above 90 after a cast, back to quelling to 60

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

one other thing

#

you can quell, and charge your staff, while sliding

marble crater
tulip kettle
#

so you dont have to lose out on mobility to do it

white valley
#

Fun fact: different weapons have different block costs

pale prairie
#

You’re saying my weapons that have a DEFENSE stat have a different block cost?!?!

tulip kettle
#

you may have noticed in the game i played with voidblast, im tapping sprint, starting the slide, then charging the staff during the slide and releasing the blast at the end

pale prairie
#

The rejects need kneepads we slide so much

tulip kettle
#

press quell for a fraction of a second (outside of havoc even 1 "tick" of quell is gonna quell around 12 peril)

#

then doing it again

ripe obsidian
#

Because if it's with KD, I know how that works

white valley
white valley
pale prairie
white valley
#

Stamina is explicitly shown in the weapon stats though

pale prairie
ripe obsidian
#

It is difficult to say with certainty without a way to average my peril over the course of a game, but using super rough estimates, OwtW would be about 5.5 effective toughness more than +15.

white valley
#

Iirc, in general, swords tend to have low block costs, axes have high block costs, chain weapons have high block costs, blunt weapons have low block costs

white valley
#

Knives and cleavers have high block costs

#

duelling sword has amazingly low block costs

gray juniper
#

Btw did Dom tell you to specifically use the Deimos?

tulip kettle
#

i didnt, but they have it and are used to it and it works okay with the build

gray juniper
#

It’s not bad at all but I can see how the difficulty he faced is happening. He could stand to change his sword to something wider focused

tulip kettle
#

i think a MK6 FGS would be better for it tbh but lets not try to do too much at once 😅

pale prairie
#

The bootcamp goes in stages lmao

marble crater
#

What if illisi?

zealous wing
#

dont like illisi

#

feels... weird

marble crater
#

Heretic

tulip kettle
#

it also doesnt deal with crushers

white valley
#

Obscurus is a good middle ground

gray juniper
zealous wing
#

didnt like it either

white valley
#

Just use FGS

tulip kettle
#

at least deimos deals with crushers

#

and yes, sure, but hexis is used to the deimos, it does the job, offers good mobility, and has deflector

marble crater
tulip kettle
#

EK vs crushers poopoo

marble crater
#

Smh

tulip kettle
#

we have flak unyielding on the EK so it does what its meant to

#

which is kill every elite and specialist that isnt a crusher.

gray juniper
#

Yes multiple crushers turns into a game of hide & seek

#

That’s not optimal and binds you up while your team is getting pounded by something else

marble crater
#

Game of stunning those two, then the other two, then the first two again

tulip kettle
#

we have shriek for hordes, and the deimos for blocking defensively, poking crushers and poking muties

gray juniper
#

Still time consuming. I was EK to be great so bad. I was ek main forever, but admittedly it’s not goat

tulip kettle
#

hex said they liked EK, and they are used to deimos, so we went with those

#

really we are learning positioning and peril management at this stage

zealous wing
#

^

gray juniper
#

Deimos is also comparatively great against bulwarks also hexis

zealous wing
#

yis

white valley
#

EK's live reaction when the humble voidblast shows up

tulip kettle
#

though EK splats the bulwarks

gray juniper
#

Use the push attack and attack them on the weak side which is their right

tulip kettle
#

3 hits no problem

#

straight through the shield

zealous wing
#

deimos kept me alive during the rotten armour event

tulip kettle
#

taking FGS to still kill crushers and muties but have better horde clear is great in theory, but giving up the extra mobility and blocking safety of deflector deimos is not a good choice rn

gray juniper
#

If you’re going to insist on Deimos, this is the way when in a corner; target the weakest enemies or less stacked and slice a path open to escape

marble crater
#

Don't be in the corner loregryn

tulip kettle
#

yeah, in an ideal world you will be behind your team mates who are fighting the crushers

gray juniper
#

Should’ve been watching my back ofc

tulip kettle

on PC with mods you can use swap cancelling on a macro instead of block cancelling

#

bit faster

zealous wing
#

dont have mods derp

weary idol

block canceling is the slower option anyways

marble crater

mods cheats

weary idol

manually weapon swapping is faster

yes indeed but manually swapping requires you to make 2 more inputs

with a finger that is used for movement

zealous wing

AHHHHH

NO

block cancelling works just fine
