i throw three for trappers running past/through a horde im clearing, it guarentees they die, but it might need to go up to 4, unsure
Omg assail doesn't rely on passive quelling lol
hi objekts
i did rely on it a bit, for quick hall crossing or bridges etc, now i have to manually quell to 60 then hold it there for general travel until combat
I can do more testing, I might well be able to drop it, but it's not hurting it
My two basic assail setups don't rely on passive quelling much. Assail+Shriek where I weave them in opportunistically or dump a few to shriek. The other is assail+scrier's, and you're mostly just spamming them during the warp unbound timer.
Whenever you're not attacking you can fit in a quell while sliding for positioning
for the less cleave*
yeah quelling isnt hard just, new habits

God I remember learning quell sliding, my hands hurt so much at first
... why?
Ctrl is my slide
oh
You don’t have to do those shenanigans 😂
Honestly true. I wonder if BB + KF would be better. BUT MM pairs with it better
yeah i forgot default sprint is unintuitive
I can't even imagine unlearning shift/Ctrl for that
jump is left alt
I have sprint on ctrl, dodge on shift and slide on spacebar
Thos are always my quick melee/special
Because you never have to dodge and sprint at the same time
The side buttons
But you need to be able to slide at all times
i have special on button 7, sprint on button 4, its not bad
Has to have a dedicated finger
(im one of the weirdos with 12 side buttons)
YO
mouse buddies
how long have you had yours?
curious about lifetime expectancy
Idk atleast 2 years or so maybe more
I used to have the older version
But it died
I don't really take good care of my shit though
f
i think the funniest thing about this mouse, is you can configure 30 hotkeys with it
damn near a whole 2nd keyboard
like they made the meme real
(someone else mightve done it first idk)
ive been trying to map the actual numbers into my brain while playing total war so i can select my control groups easier but its a chore
clumsy boi
oh a man of culture
you play total war warhammer?
I have played since Shogun total war
and I have played since warhammer 3
i made one of the hotkeys open a specific note document for all the hotkeys
not doing the phone stuff though
ive been playing ultra modded TWW3 because vanilla is way too easy compared to TWW2
phone stuff?
Total war is a phone game now too
i have like 6 different profiles including one for when im writing lol
sounds garbage tbh
k i actually just remembered to switch ES to LI,
its nearing 5am so im probably gonna suffer first game tomorrow, we'll see 
i doubt youll notice not having ES
i ... am very particular. even warp splitting on melee throws me off a bit since it doesnt "feel right",
getting used to it though
the tism is strong with this one 😉
Ugh work
I tried it with KF + PC as my only my only warp damage sources and it averaged 2.3 stacks. So kinda meh
Buffed KF seems a really good though
Seems better to throw out an assail in that situation
well that would be attacking wouldnt it 😉
aktually its my shard doing the attacking not me
i am not responsible for damages caused by the warp
thats true
Does channeled force synergize at all with the infernus staff?
do we reckon the new bolt pizzy is just worse for psyker?
we dont really need CC from our gun slot
standard bistol does plenty
still rather have laspee anyway
Maybe, but I appreciate the big aoe stagger. With DD, you probably still hit all the important breakpoints for sniping of specials that you had before. With an assail+bistol build, I appreciate it just staggering and giving time for the assail to do its work, along with lazy dog saves.
Standard bistol mostly better though.
Does the aoe apply bleed with puncture?
assail applying bleed as you swap to bistol is already crazy enough but that would help stack
It doesn't seem to apply with the aoe, I'm mostly sure. But it works nicely with the +20% against staggered enemies.
I do love being able to apply bleed with assail (and to finish off the occasional target), but it's ultimately a gimmick. 🙁
Devs should of connected these pieces so we can skip the stat mods if we want to.
I could of saved a point if I didn't have to take the 5% toughness modifier on the left there.
i guiltily say i really like shriek inferno staff build
Pyro psyker
Psyro?
idk it's just inferno staff with the shriek skill instead of shield
Ah, home at last, time for more unga bunga fire sword psyker
I need to re-build my Maximum fire psyker build
I'm fine with them being deadend optionals, most of them are good but not required. Way better than the left path we had with the staff talents that got nuked.
Crystalline will is still a meme with the buff though and wasting a talent point on that as a deadend is indeed a choice you can make
Honestly CW can be super nutty if you get good at picking off an elite with it
It's a full 100% peril reduction
Got like 7 in a row and felt like a god.
But the better the teams are, the harder it is to ensure that you get one.
I just haven't hard much luck with it outside of voidblast, where you can control the horde better around you.
Warp Ghost = more stamina and toughness at the cost of basically no passive quell recovery. Like if you stop using peril, it counts down, but with warp ghost, it counts down real slow.
I mean for 2 stamina and toughness replenishment it sounds kinda ehh
I'd take it if it was hard to keep high peril, but scriers
Isn't 25% replenishment just like 25% more toughness gained?
I hope, I don't recognize the wording being used in other talents
replenish is used on almost every toughness talent.
You misunderstand, crystalline will is not a talent you pick, it's a playstyle
The "Intercontinental ballistic missile" playstyle
ok yeah nvm, decent toughness talent, but psyker has a lot of those
Also, GW is pretty usable on any scrier's and any staff build.
meta for true survivor at least
You mostly always manual quell when spamming staves.
And you don't passively quell while scrier's is up anyhow.
What's GW? Is that a talent?
100% scrier's uptime sounds uh
Enticing
Ghost Warp
ghosts warpshop
Warp Unbound constant uptime has been a thing for a while now.
you mean warp ghost lol
Warp ghost is great, you get good stuff and all you give up is passive quell which you’ll never use anyway
Sure, haven't looked at its name
But yeah, WG is mostly just a defensive talent that only negatively affects builds like non-scrier's Assail+Gun where you are swapping constantly and letting peril calm itself down
Sure, if you plan on manually quelling to always use assail
instead of swapping to assail and using it to manage peril
You still have high peril, because it's a psyker build.
Why would you not want a bunch of toughness regen and stam for nil cost 🤷♀️
It also pairs nice with a lot of the other new traits in the tree
Love how high peril is meant to be a risk-reward system but actually blowing up is still so hand-holdy
Well, it's not nil cost. It's a talent point and forces you to manually quell.
In a build where you previously never manually quelled.
Quell taps is pretty standard
Most every build will be able to use it nicely
but that's one of the few where it's less free.
Assail basically the only thing left that you get the quell cancel to fire faster too
and you only need a tiny bit of missing peril to throw em
We should just go back to sprint canceling overload, true psykers just hold W and sprint instead of blowing up
It's not like unbound scriers is much different
What makes soulfire different to regular fire?
A different damage instance
Different debuff so they stack separately. soulflame stacks degrade slower and there's a lot of other small differences between them
also counts as warp damage and talents that proc off soulflame don't proc off fire
Mmm. First game back, two different people shoot poxbursters
One knocks a teammate, the other throws me off a ledge
You should see the average player when the game is on sale, on a weekend
Dear god.
The intercontinental ballistic missile with a range of about two feet
In one shot? General horde clear? What? Have to specify
Melee psyker is bonkers now
with perfect timing and +10% melee?
Tac axe with moblity dump , flak unarmored, brutal momentum headtaker
It’s not hitting
time to trash it
Naw
one shot, (im running palpatine with dueling sword
im using revolver rn
Its probably something like db shotgun. But its not a perfect weapon.due to spread and somewhat short range. Somebody else can confirm though
Actually let me make sure
Dbarrel can snipe
im using the smite for off brand loyal protector
Ewwww
(extra damage dealt tot eh taunted enemies
my characters name is palpatine
Ive never had great success sniping with DB but may be a personal thing
how about for special sniping
Eh. Long as youre using smite correctly shrugs.
Im a big fan of revolver for sniping but thats just me
i am, im using it on things that would prove ot be problems when not stunned
IIa or the orphan revolver
Good good. Remembering to let go sometimes i hope lmao
im running the peril refresh and peril gain decrease build(levle 19 rn
Not sure. Lol. Im not as good at game as most others here
My hexes and psychic attacks against smite users haven't succeeded
im a zeal main and a oggy main
I mean...sometimes i down on damnation
you tryna make a zeal/oggy main dumber?
Its a real embarrassment i know
idk if thats possible
im ONLY using psy rn because i found out how to add more words withouta space
for emporer palpatin
I play trauma maybe once a month to remind myself it sucks
I really like trauma
chaxe maybe be ass but i still love it(ass on psy without even using it
Dueling Board
Trauma is so eepy
Its busted
But eepy
If i want to play a staff its right tree and voidstrike
i miss staggering fleshy clankers(crushers)
Im using combat blade for melee
Knife voidstrike is my build for it
i only play og and zeal
Crack speed for repositioning and singletarget
what trinkets do yall use for psy
Combat blade is amazing on zealot
Weaving knife lunges between every cast to get a better position for the cleave
i know
3 toughness or 2 tough 1 health
@patent jacinth did you do your testing with perfect timing and +10% melee?
...this is a joke btw
I didn't really do testing

I just popped into psyk and checked to see if I could with my 30 second build
If you find a way to hit the one tap without ability or egregious damage maxing tell me
go to vet chat, there the real nerds
Just path
@proper osprey whats your preffered taxe mark on psyker
Mk7
Always
Epic win
sweet

@proper osprey is ur fgs voidblast scrier build updated
oh ur in chat talking about it rn good timing 

i just built mine exactly the same except i had immaterial and just a dream instead of quietude and soulstealer
is this new?
Yes
I’ve thought about dropping soul stealer
nah been in the game since beta
you dont die from lacking toughness when youve got assail targets
because you will be proccing non stop EE
is my reason to drop it on gunker-like builds
That’s fair
Can you give a example?
this seems insane, too bad its attached to smite
It isn't
I don’t know if I wanna grab stun immunity or just a dream
Both
Guh
I grab all 5 nodes in that section
Yeah they are differently good
I severely underestimated how much damage these FGS stabs would do to bosses
each one is like, a quarter + of the health bar
It really… Isn’t, I never take it even when I do run smite
maybe if it received damage buffs but it's currently not buffed by anything
Of the two, stun immunity. But both on meleeker if you can.
If it would stun big enemies maybe? Or if the attack chained to other enemies like a mini-smite?
Hmmm
if im getting enough assail kills that soulstealer will actually make a significant difference in my survival that means im shooting them at horde enemies, a rager pack, or rushing shooter/gunner packs.
but those arent the moments that kill me. if im dying on such a build its usually because of armour, monstrosities or chaos from specials.
Both are amazing
Uhhh I’m ngl I’m not talking a ton of health damage like at all
you're also going to be generally more survivable in those moments where assail is killing enemies due to it proccing EE like crazy
I believe stun immunity might be worth
but I'm not certain
Mixed hordes
It’s why I love the force greatswords, they completely annihilate chaff and leave the armor exposed
I like it
definitely
It works with by crack of bone
Can't decide if I like assail or BB with KF more
how often do you reach critical peril with that build, just when SG ends? Also when spamming assail but do you need the immunity then
frequently
When does it activate?
at >97%
between assail, scrier, fgs, blocking with kinetic, and taking damage
For melee assail
there is many way you boost your peril up
Hmm
I want an assail force-staff so badly
Also you guys running triple toughness or double tough + health?
Triple toughness
Now i think just a dream may be better
For when I do inevitably get nicked
How does it work?
On toughness?
I'm pretty sure its just 25% damage reduction
all damage
it works like KD in that peril reduction reduces the peril increase
up the the point you run out of peril
Yeah that’s good
but i havent tested the damage to peril formula yet
I wonder if there was a reason Empyric shock had to only work on primary attacks.
dam I didn't even think of that
i suppose i could test it now
lost 15/150 health, gained 33% peril. no active peril reduction nodes or talents
wait hang on why did i gain peril on the first bonk that didnt damage my health
did you lose toughness
it works on toughness
Guh
So it’s free toughness tdr
I have no idea what to drop for it though 😭
And synergizes with one with the warp
No 
your pants
Hmmmmm
if you play a gas map, you are going to sit at near max peril all the time with it
I don't take OwtW
Excellent
it works while downed too 
You stay at max peril while downed, lol
mettle nerf is so big, absolutely have to take one of soulstealer or quietude
well... yeah 
otherwise all the gen you have is 7.5-10% toughness per second and melee hits/kills
That was how staffker was already
I wish Empyric Shock would apply to every warp attacks. Just tone down the damage to 4% or less.
staffker? STAFFKER?
Empyric Shock and Channeling whatever remain awful
well, for staffker no, cuz you need perfect timing
staffker is solved already surely
for meleeker, I would say almost definitely but I'm betting the speed addicts will say otherwise for their beloved 0.0001 seconds of max speed per match
took me 3 minutes and accidentally falling asleep twice to make my trauma build
oh shit you get rewarded "No Provisions" without the auric check
and apparently its still boring to play even after 7 months away
I dunno how anyone can say staffker is boring and then turn around and look at 'stab stab' man as peak

Define stab stab man
londoners
Meleeker in this context
stab stab is simply more fun
u simply need a stabbing loisence m8
Melee is way less fun and way less thinking
melee in the melee focused game is more funsies
Other than Inferno 
i love casting blue circles at the ground the whole game
What do we think about dropping soulstealer on inferno staff?
i love stabbing people in the same exact spots for the entire game
The only enemy remotely interesting to stab is Bonbon
Does it still count towards souldrinker?
does wat
Inferno
i love stabbing people and using my pewpewnoisemaker and juggling hand icicles*
Don't see why it wouldn't
Idk if the it’s from the actual damage or dot
I love teaching enemies lessons of the warp and then using my stabby stab to drop a mutant while I hear a KF proc pop a sniper I never saw
based, tbf
Slightly related, but screw plasma gunners
and nothing tops knocking bursters that were too close away from your team with trauma
Who decided tanky rapid fire snipers was a good idea 😭
Should I drop ee? On inferno?
No...

what do you path through then
oh is it not new?
Nope, been in the game a while
drop essence harvest
Guh
and quietude
Mah toughness
Really?
Fyre is addicted to overtoughness
I run empyric resolve and I only have soulstealer+souldrinker+mettle and I would also drop mettle if I could
quietude is so good tho
I've been switching between quietude and soulstealer, we'll see
Mmmm I guess it is Inferno
Would owtw be a good drop for just a dream?
I run Just a dream with purg
I suppose with the shorter KF cooldown essence harvest is a bit better too
Marginally, once combat is flowing you'll likely have EH up most of the time anyway, but KF proccing instantly could get you an extra tick or two
Is it me or does the new psyker tree feel more uncomfortable.
It's you
k
Well it's more important when you are playing defensively and you can just proc it 100% even with e.g. the FS push attack
@patent jacinth 690 on scab bruiser with like 5 stacks of dd will meet the bp
Right dd exists
Perfectionism or nothing 
No idea, I assume it works just like every other damage res talent though
that would make sense but when do things ever make sense on release
I completely forgot combat stimms reduce peril generation
Another reason to use scrier's
Arby:
"Double assail psyker? Fuck that."
Leaves before the game even started
On damnation, mind you
True 
Lol entitled babies
Arbites not beating the mark of shame allegations
Guys is 4% toughness on quelling and gaining peril worth it? I do t really feel like it is.
I allready have on warp kill and crit tho
Psykers need all the toughness regen they can get
I think the psyker tree need way more nodes.
Yeah that's good
You don't need more than two toughness gen nodes unless you really lack confidence in playing psyker
I picked the staff perk instead
I feel like kills and crits just do so much more
And quelling barely anything idk
And i have ayphon too
Warp syphon
If you run prescience aura then I'd agree yeah
bait used to be believeable
Mettle works best if you devote the build to racking crits
Up to you
Again I don't believe you need more or less than two tgh gen nodes
Ok
I am running nettle WE and quietude on my bb gunker though
What builds do you guys use for a flame staff with bb?
Mostly to compensate for bb being slow to charge
Not counting the blitz/skill/keystone nodes psyker only have 34 while the others have at least 10 more nodes with a more flexible tree.
That would make the psyked tree opposite of uncomfortable then because you can have more with less points
I really like the new trees
Zazy is a moron. For some goddam reason I didn't realize I had empyric selected on my fire gs build that does not use a staff
I have now amended my mistake
Unfortunately the lack blue nodes got filled the blank with generic points. and even there are less, the paths feel more strict. Optimizing feels very hard compared to the other classes
Not really, if anything it feels more straightforward than before
@wind spruce zazy has fixed moronic mistake with his funny build
The only consideration there is to have is falling into the trap of thinking you need every single ability and node that makes you tankier and constricting your build that way
Yeah before you had to habe certain combinations now you can build whatever
The trees are much much better now imo
It's better than before Yes. But it feels like the other ones are so much better.
Yeah maybe a little inlike vet rework the most
I had empyric selected and I have no clue why @wind spruce
That might be because the psyker tree was in the best state of the three pre rework
I think these two should switch places.
They definitely invested way more time and effort on the other two since psyker already had decent build variability and was strong, but it should get adjusted to be on par with the other two
Yeah psyker was allready strong before just a bit squishy
My only real gripe is kinetic resonance still being niche and not worth picking
BB remains BB 
Bb is godtier i love it
I like it a lot honestly
💀
Actually justifiable to use with a gun now
My main gripe is that the staff nodes still suck
KF was pretty nice before anyway
Why hate bb?
Only with staves and bullet hoses
Easy oneshots on all specials
Don't recall that name, which one that again
So every psyker before the update 
Oh yeah fast bb
Psyker players are awesome, I wish they were real though
BB does not perform well. It's only decent with the multitude of speed-up buffs it can get, and sadly those buffs aren't consistent enough.
My beloved says they were all sharing the same dream, shame dreams aren't real either
With the cdr i constantly have my shield and constantly can speed up bb if needet. If not ill just take cover and kill specials behind walls
The poor arby though
Beloved says he's just seeing things again
That's the problem
You have to slow down and hide to make use of BB
How is that a problem?
Waste no tears on an average arby 
Darktide is not a 'slow down and hide' game
Bb shouldnt need that to be halfway decent
Allegedly BB used to be decent when there were fewer special enemies and they were more threatening
It still doesn't auto target elites
I disagree rushing gets u killed
I usually win with slow and steady teams
Also, I did actually count the number of times KR was actually useful in a match from someone who swore by KR. It was <5% of BB kills.
Auric literally got an "anti speedrunning" mechanic now
Apparently captains spawn like in havoc if you go thru an auric mission too fast
Doesn't work. 
Isn't that just the event?
No
Oh boy I love mechanics that aren't explained so the people that know have to suffer more from people who don't
It's the havoc mechanic now added to auric
Well, sure, rushing does
Im certainly not hiding tho i have a shield too agter all
Slow and steady works, yes, but you don't slow and steady by hiding behind a pillar and trying to pick enemies off with BB. Enemies in Havoc will literally out-spawn BB's kill rate.
and not mooks either, actual elites
Sometimesni do if we get overwhelmed for example
bb need a speed buff fr. it's not about the anti-speekrunning it's that it needs to be more aggressive.
The sequel
I agree it could be faster but i atill think its really strong
BB needs to be more. It is just not good, and the only reason I pick it is for KF.
Kf has been one of bbs only saving graces that even gives it a pick rate outside pathing since the game released
It's the weakest blitz

Idk
Lol I know there are more psyker players than before, my comment was about void doing gunker erasure again
Anyways havoc bad
Vermintide BB isn't real, Vermintide BB can't hurt you
Try as I might I just can't get as invested in vermintide as I am in darktide
Vermintide is definitely a downgrade for me in terms of fun
I got both vermintides in my library during free giveaways but I just don't care about whf enough to try
Lmao, I prefer WHF to 40k
It is one of the cooler fantasy settings out there though
Does vermin 2 still get new players
I'm only here because STUPID SIENNA WITH HER STUPID SELF-DAMAGE AND STUPID TEAM DAMAGE
rarely, as one might expect
It still gets more updates then dt
Yeah figured
But dt melee just feels way better imo
On brand that this entire update was for their silly not chaos wastes tm update and have not a single mention of it in 2 days
I love dt's blend of melee and gun combat
Stop wanting WHF, want AOS not space marines instead
Age of sugmar nuts lol
Yeah gums feel MUCH better
Just the combat in general tbh
I don't care for geedubs' rancid brand pushing
And i dont like the beastmen enemys in vt and the chaos goons i wish it was rats only
They suck donkey balls, they just have a few hits with licencing their ips
Don't get me started, I will rant about beastmen bs melee range for HOURS
VT got an entire new map with a kickass boss fight for its yearly event.......dt got a boss as a common spammed enemy
Something wrong with your V4 and V5 there
How many players does vt2 even have?
the health damage of V5 should be wrong
More or less?
Only slightly less than darktide
Lawd jesus
Thats surprising tbh
I mean i liked vt 1 but 2 never really catched me idk
VT2 usually sits at 2-4k darktide settles at 5k without updates
V2 was completely free for a while
Last time i checked dt was like 10-12k on average steam charts.
Update
hmmm one sec
V4 is correct
I forgot Just a dream isn't working
Yep
What's wrong with dream now?
nothing, but his test scenario in that was at 100% peril so it wasn't proccing
Yeah definitely makes it more confusing than it needs to be for someone else looking at it
but its a WIP
There ya go
I find it funny psyker can now face tank mauler overheads without blocking
you could do that before iirc
hello
Oh yeah crusher too
fix your numeric ui
It's funnier if you reverted for every video
Just to drive them insane
It's like always leaving a skill point unspent during streams so chat gets to have an aneurysm for 2 hours
Just always have a broken ammo counter in the corner of every clip
new PA is actually kinda cracked lol
scriers is consistently off CD halfway through warp unbound
It's at least on par with the old PA for the psyker
lower peaks, higher troughs
We permagazing out here
You weren't before? Smh my head
Not with assail no
At most times I had a roll going until team did something inconvenient like not allow me to kill it all myself
*or crushers showed up
So the new Psyker tree seems to have a pretty good "oops all peril" build path now, complete with juiced up Crystalline Will. Anyone did something fun with melee blender Psyker who occasionally explodes recreationally yet?
The overload kablooey is still dissapointingly weak
Dang
I was hoping I'M GONNA BLOW UP was a real strat now
Making me take reality anchor on gaze to get warp unbound has persuaded me to just
Not take it
To take all of middle tree
Fair
6 points of pure heat
I want anticipation for staff builds so much but the points are too sparse 😭
exactly
out of dodges
😔
Have more dodges then lmao
That's why I want anticipation
Im curious if anyones made a melee build for psyker using the chain ax
Some love it on psyker so almost certainly
mhm I really hope they add a Force Ax at some point
I want a force knife because I'm addicted to speed
Remove the small node in the middle, for one
I'm just annoyed psyker's tree is seemingly purposefully more inflexible than the other trees
More dead ends at the bottom, more minor nodes
it even have the most chokehold points which are all minor
I just wish if I go scryers I didn't have to spend 3+ points to get quietude
But qietude is just one point from the top
whoops I meant solidity

to grab empyric resolve
leaves me with juust one point shy of another perk I want
Im trying to weave soulblaze into the melee build ;-;
gimme fire perks
psyker has the least nodes yet it always leaves you with not enough points.
my favourite ability in the game is brain burst but its always so awful to use
Dont get them started again😂
U need ze cdr on ability.
or the lockon is shit
BB with EP should be the default speed at minimum.
And only use leftclick imo
even with it the veteran is much faster
BB was already clunky and bad when the game came out, and it hasn't been meaningfully improved since
and start with targeting only specials and elites
Actually untrue, making it not required for warp charges was arguably an improvement, as was the auto-trigger node
So really, the improvements were a direct result of not having to actively use it
I like it a lot but i understand how people think its too slow i hated bb at first when i played psyker.
when I ran it I had both the EP plus kinetic which makes it charge faster
I like the concept of brainburst but its AGONIZINGLY slow
It couldn't catch up with all the powercreep
But he also needs ammo for that
And good aim 😆
at the difficulty Im at ammo isn't too hard to come by
I've just come back after a loong break
aiming isn't a issue on BB? get real lmao
Once i gor the hang of it im popping heads left and right no trouble.
Me when I aim at the mauler but the game decides FUCK THIS POXWALKER
It can be a bit annoying at times.
aye I can get kills with it but a lot of the time the target Im charging on gets killed just as Im about to pop it
It simply needs to be faster
There really needs to be a targeting priority
I try to go for targets that are behind or out of the way
dog
Of course the vet is faster if u aim for the one goon ifront of him
It wasn't good at release, either. All it did was light up a dude for the Vet to leisurely take aim at and shoot long before your slow BB was done charging.
BB started way behind other, actually useful abilities and never moved.
for now Im stickin with my melee build
though Im debatin on if I wanna get rid of perilous combustion or wildfire cause I dont have enough ppooooooooints
Or I could get ridda warpsplitting and have boff of dem
yeah fuck warp splittin we don't need cleave
I felt like i dont need those with a melle psyker.
then why is it even ther?
if I need cleave I'll just whoosh my sword
I doo kinda wish there was a node that gave crits soulblaze in the perk tree cause chainaxe with crits on the rev would be funny
"And now you are burning a lot
it really do be kinda nice
lights out auric, only had 10 health damage in total throughout
plasma gunner event too
Speaking of which, do poxwalkers even have brains left to pop?
fair enough
what build is this? looks interesting.
it's my brain burst gun psyker build I'm tinkering around with
I use mk V dueling sword and mk x laspistol
cool
will try dropping vulnerable minds for warp speed
warp speed is a really fun subnode but I haven't used it in almost a year now
the uhh plasmagunners are cring
<@&735928989146939404> ^
Red name turned into a Servitor, sad
they are hard to see and unlike the plasma pistol bosses don't quite seem to have a windup
Cool concept for an enemy tho just....basically snipers with no lazer
You can hear them charge the gun though
I couldn't hear shit when they shot me just voop ded
I only played two missions with them so far and had no problems with hearing them, maybe I was just lucky and need more situations 
Super loud sound like a captain boss. Hard to miss honestly.
In the fog and no light conditions you can see the glowing eyes and plasmagun
the most common problem I have with plasma gunners right now is that they look too similar to regular scab shooters from a distance... (unless its in a darkness level, in which case their plasma gun's glow when they are just about to shoot makes them easier to spot)
and that is peak
However those fuckers can survive hesdshot from helbire mk5
Carapace head will do that
Carapace head is fucking up my muscle memory
ok holy hell this setup is nuts
comparable to arbites levels of tanking damage
I still wasn't capable enough to do hab dreyko finale solo though 

did they nerf the chain electrokinesis on this updt?
smite?
they made it spread farther without that extra talent, so it's baked in better
i think it is smite, the hand shock thing, it's building peril much faster
It builds peril faster but it has the extra targets modifier built into it
can i reduce the peril buildup somehow? it's incredibly faster
So you can hold more targets, but not for as much time
hmm, i liked the upgrade but the peril generation is too fast
It's only 25% faster
prob helps to stop the turtle playstyle and create more healthy playstyles for newer players
slight nerf but a welcome one yeah
psyker is more CC than support with its squishiness, it still has insane damage potential
now they should rework smite into something good 🙏
well the alternative is to not have it be a held thing
but it's prob too strong if it's very fast
idt any other class spends as much time having their blitz out
i agree, this is why i found strange the peril generation increase
i used the shock to hold a lot of things back and now it's a tad finicky
the peril increase falls in line with that thinking tho
if you can use smite forever, something that inherently doesn't deal a lot of damage, then you're just pure support
i don't think reducing the time you can use smite will change this honestly
I was using it today in a blazing spirit meleeker meme build and it felt way more healthy (and fun) to use just left clicking, actually having it spread at a decent rate, and then throwing the enemies down on the ground and continue hacking
specially since it's supposed to hold of hordes
That does sound pretty good
I could only hold it for 3-5 seconds even with shriek because I almost never started casting it with lower than ~40% peril
yeah that falls more in line with other CC, beside maybe chorus
I'm prob not gonna use it much for that, I still like the EP Smite with SG
and prob won't use it often anyway
I think that's also fine because my #1 complaint with smite is other players letting go of their keyboard and just holding down rmb+lmb for dozen or more seconds
so if said players can do that less, I think it's a good change
Exactly. Utility; not a playstyle.
it prevents a few characters from excelling that rely on enemy interactions to get strong/tanky
but I usually like it because it opens up enemies freely
Pissing off zealots is funny though
tru
that they won't kill with their weak smite
I have seen high level players smite a ton in missions and still get high damage numbers, so it's not incompatible
Peak psyker gameplay is landing trauma shots just on the "wrong" side of bursters so they get knocked towards smealots
but if you're not in auric all the time you prob don't see it that much
"Oops"
sorry didn't see it 🙈
ye I did some trauma runs for the new auric mortis stuff and the respawning barrels were funny with teammates
it's too hard not to hit them
That's why you gotta land the blue circle on the opposite side so it doesn't explode, just gets knocked on top of them and they shit their pants
trauma psykers got nothing on dog juggling bursters tho
they just can't control it as well
I joined a 22 for funzies last night with the tweaked build and I'm super happy my dumbass finally noticed empyric.
Although fucking Christ it ended up being more of a duo 22
Fire sword when brrrr regardless
One guy rage quit in the first section and farland was floor tanking alot
Did you send through your updated build? I'll take another looksie
Also you should get ovenproofs scoreboard extension so you can see details like how much warpfire damage youre doing
You can remove stuff to make it less cluttered. Plus remove the duplicates from the OG scoreboard
Wait wdym you noticed empyric?
I had it selected in the build for fuck knows how long, no clue why, gave me what I needed to grab flayer
Empyric resolve?!
No, primary staff damage
Brains too big, things get lost 
Anyway, I am profoundly happy to confuse people with a pure melee build dealing more ranged than melee
havoc 21 attempt going great
it's basically just a cracked sf zealot clutching
and it was going so well until the twins spawned 😭
I don't think I can think of a counterplay to being literally crowd crushed
yup
what server do you play on 50rem
Poggers
EU, though I can comfortably play on NA east too
ah im SEA
my gunker is fucking invincible now
i keep coming out of cooked positions not even taking chip
cant quite understand it tbh
yeah this was immediately my best h21 gunker attempt
the tankiness is for real nutty
here goes a second attempt 🫡
gl sir
did any of the psyker weps get giga buffed?
do u play havoc?
yes
im just doing a quick mael quickplay then got shit to do before bed sorry g
but add me and we will game
Is that geist/ghosr node any good?
The only that makes peril passively drain much slower but you get more tdr
its toughness replenishment not TDR
but yeah i think its pretty good for a lot of builds
Ive been debating on bringing it on my inferno build
+25% toughness from all sources is pretty bonkers
and you dont actually want your peril to decay on many builds
im not 100% sold on it for gunker but most staffs? ez pick
So basically almost every top node gets 25% better?
yep
I'll give it a shot
Might also try just a dream
Acccttuuaalllyy
Maybe not with ghost
why? they have good synergy
Just A Dream works on toughness damage btw
so every hit is peril is extra toughness from buffed quietude
very nice
ty ty
lmao i cant believe i basically got a free +3 stam curio with all these other buffs
Well when does it start to count as critical peril level
97%
made a speed melee got to test it was fun as hell
97.5 if you want to be mega specific
it depends what you get hit by, and how good you are at peril management for high damage
Also what about that one node that gives 10% resistance?
also good
Warp demons in my head eating good tonight
time to read some patch notes
Fixed an issue which could lead to client and server crashes during missions related to the “Smuggled Munitions” event.
hopefully this fixes the issues
surprised they didnt hotfix the broken as hell penance but oh well 
im addicted to gambling with crystalline and im absolutely not sorry for it
look at me im the poxburster now
Right? I can finally exchange the stam curio for health so people stop bullying me
Does EE prog Precognition and Riposte?
So with the one perk that converts some damage into peril, I noticed when you go downed peril still goes up until 97%. Does that mean the bleed out time is slightly longer depending on how much peril you had when you got downed?
Become a new sibling
Use thr trauma staff
Oooohhhh trauma staff
Oooohhhh soulblaze explosiobs
loving taxe fyrestone
i used it on gunker way back when but feels actually stronk now lol
become a berserker psyker
a berpsyker?
It’s amazing on psyker
thinking of trying out new Venting Shriek in Havoc
It’s good
Warp Rupture looks great
well just in general
My melee psyker always tops damage
Yeah venting with creeping flames is still what i would do
I wish there was a better way to deal with Cara
warp unbound KR BR

when u were talking 1SBP for taxe earlier were you talking heavy or light
I should say Cara spam
ya i wasnt really suggesting that
im thinking of going outside the box without fire stuff
Gaze
oi @proper osprey
one shot break point
Ohhh heavy
Like with zealot he has the same issue
But he can achieve it very easily by dodging
ya im hitting 690/815 with perfect timing and headtaker up, but a bit of DD or being in scriers should get there
Because of that one talent
im happy enough with this build to actually put it in the thingy https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9ff65af5-e96e-48a9-b91d-34f8b76124b8/hexis-the-berpsyker
Idk, curious about that too. My first match with that talent I was downed, didn't notice that, got revived, instantly cast staff, exploded
"ohhhh" - me
Missing some key stuff
also MM stacks and warprider
so hitting it is quite easy to be honest
like what
Warp expenditure
literally not enough toughness regen to matter compared to quietude
By crack of bone
also no

I myself dislike Crack of Bone now, especially on meleeker thanks to Unstable Power existing on FGS...
yeah but you also use a taxe
Or shred wrath
and its an EK build
if your peril is too low you arent using assail enough
or im using the wrong talent for mainly a hordeclearer
ive been running battle med, BCoB and TtS AND reality anchor for the last two games lel
funnily enough, despite not liking Crack of Bone anymore, I do like Battle Med on nearly every build now, just because it quells rarely enough that I can still stay at high peril but still quell a bit sometimes...
yeah when you turn damage into peril that will happen
use your assail
It sounds perilous~
I like Bcob because I get the benefits of scriers longer
More damage
More crit
bcob my beloved
not a lot of things feel as good as getting stuck in with a competent zealot with gaze popped
plus if you have a longer scriers, now with improved PA, you cycle straight back into the next one before WU is finished most of the time
or just immediately lol
yup, almost infinite uptime
yeah but yall also gave me shit for using ammo as the dump stat for vraks, so
