psyker-class

[rancid geyser]

which is true?

[summer prairie]

they were talking about channeled force

[rancid geyser]

aah

[patent steeple]

ye, but idk when to start applying the stacks.

like, before or after a big-charged rmb?

[rancid geyser]

must have not read thouroughly enough

[white sky]

What do you dump on FGS?

Warp Res?

[thorn cedar]

yea

[rancid geyser]

i think on every weap with warp res you dump that stat

[white sky]

Tyty

[rancid geyser]

it just gates your damage

[plucky flax]

As low as you can get on fgs.

[white sky]

60

[plucky flax]

No lower.

Sub 40%.

[white sky]

Lmfao

[plucky flax]

Lower is even better.

Whilst keeping everything else 80.

[rancid geyser]

i wish i rememebred that earlier

[white sky]

Oh you mean like

[plucky flax]

If your warp resist on fgs is 60 that's simply way too high.

[white sky]

A well rolled 480

Or something

Right?

[rancid geyser]

shit was in the 20s when everything was maxed

[plucky flax]

44 is okay but could be better.

I think mine is 29% which is like above average.

[white sky]

Yeah I see what you mean

[rancid geyser]

i cry

[white sky]

That, tbh, seems like a massive pain in the ass

So I assume

[wispy bay]

Damn, smaller is better now.

[white sky]

I want to find a 60 cap 0 actual bar FGS

[rancid geyser]

honestly when we max weapons

we should be able to slide the values

on the bars that we have

screw you Fat Shark

[plucky flax]

You have some sus blessings on your fgs.

Hope you changed that. Xd

Unless you want to meme (But the meme doesn't synergy)

[rancid geyser]

i havent touched it at all

just bought until i got nice rolls then leveld it up

[modest perch]

if only those blessings worked together

[rancid geyser]

think the only things i touched were the perks when i was testing it out earlier

[modest perch]

psyker rly needs a way to apply soulblaze at range

[rancid geyser]

.>

Kill dudes

[white sky]

Alright so

Im looking for

A FGS roll with 60 Warp Res Cap

But 0 in the bar

And as high of numbers as I can get elsewhere

Correct?

[modest perch]

sure but i dont see the point

[marble crater]

Except Voidstrike, which dumps Blast Radius

[white sky]

I understand the logic tbh

Greater peril generation means its easier to stay high peril

Its gonna pmo tho

[pale prairie]

Guys I just popped over to Darktide Reddit to learn about new meta

[long saddle]

I found one in the reg shop that I managed to get to 40% with the rest maxed

[modest perch]

yea but peril is already easy to get

[pale prairie]

Havoc 33

Coming to a pubs near you

[marble crater]

https://tenor.com/view/now-delete-it-neuralyzer-will-smith-men-in-black-gif-16747951

[white sky]

Atp we're splitting hairs for maximum efficiency

[modest perch]

and spamming the special to get there seems inefficient cus u waste the charge of the thing

[white sky]

Tbh I find smite so boring to use

[modest perch]

like i get doing it on deimos or whatever

[white sky]

It doesnt feel efficient either

[modest perch]

u dont need smite

[white sky]

I know

[modest perch]

scriers

[white sky]

Ive got uh

737/2500 for the smite penance

So i do have to smite a little longer

[modest perch]

f

not doing it during the glory days of ep smite

[wraith sphinx]

I don't even remember grinding that penance 💔

[white sky]

It didnt exist when I last played

I took a very long break from dt specifically cause of the gacha weapons

[royal totem]

@pale prairie smite meta now?

[pale prairie]

You mean the unlimited smite?

[modest perch]

yea

[pale prairie]

Yeah apparently. Guess I’ll just keep sucking with my super not meta meleeker

[pale prairie]

Those were the days

Broken ass shit

[modest perch]

ppl who complain about box o nades fuckin up their fps have no idea what theyre talking about

[pale prairie]

Lmao I just noticed your name change

[pale prairie]

Oh man infinite lightning was killing connections like thammer an bosses

[white sky]

My fps in dt is either fine or it isn't

[modest perch]

4 psykers with that crap (which was a frequent occurence) would give you enough time between frames to do your taxes

[white sky]

Like i either launch the game and it's smooth

And I launch the game and it runs at 20 fps

[pale prairie]

Schrödinger’s framerate

[modest perch]

getting rid of these things is my one armed man

[white sky]

I unironically do not understand it

At all

[pale prairie]

Good luck and may the emperor bless your crusade

[pale prairie]

It’s kind of spooky especially cause the engine is niche and unsupported. Makes it hard to diagnose

[white sky]

Yk what other game uses this engine?

[pale prairie]

Helldivers 2 baby

[white sky]

For some ungodly reason

[pale prairie]

They a small studio and I imagine it was cheap

Now they have bucco bucks but are stuck now

[modest perch]

they should make darktide 2 on creation engine

[pale prairie]

Somehow Todd returned

[deft stump]

Oh, we do know. It's obvious when my game stutters from one or too many.

[white sky]

They should make darktide 2 on source

[pale prairie]

Look I might allow it if we can visit other planets

[marble crater]

Use UE5, then nobody can play it

[pale prairie]

Pffff games don’t use source anymore

[royal totem]

damn. i guess i'll stop running BB

[white sky]

I unironically think source is such a preem engine if you can be fucked to utilize it

[modest perch]

make darktide 2 exclusively for temple os

[white sky]

Source and Frostbite

[modest perch]

https://tenor.com/view/cia-terry-terry-a-davis-terry-a-davis-got-the-moves-cool-dance-gif-14065988

[pale prairie]

Oh for sure it is excellent. Too bad Steam isn’t gonna make more games other than deadlock

The Honda civic/toyota Camry of engines

[white sky]

Titanfall 2 was on Source and that's the best multiplayer shooter anyone's ever made

[deft stump]

Game runs smooth on a 3 year outdated driver lul.

[white sky]

Honestly Steam makes such high quality high skill ceiling games

[deft stump]

I don't even think the driver I use supports it.

[pale prairie]

Heyo! My UE5 game is finally working well now that I flashed my BIOS, upgraded my video card, AND gave it admin privileges!

[pale prairie]

Yeah get with the times or get left behind like me you whipper snapper

[marble crater]

[white sky]

From what i understand UE5 isn't even the issue itself, it's devs using every single shortcut it has access to

[pale prairie]

It isn’t bad. Some of the gun mechanics outside of the mechs felt distinctly CoD shenanigans

[white sky]

Wdym by cod shenanigans

[pale prairie]

Beautiful

[marble crater]

I blame the devs and the engine, Claire Obscure is a great example of doing it right

[modest perch]

https://tenor.com/view/super-troopers-shenanigans-gif-12521650

[white sky]

Thats 33 right?

I haven't played it but I heard very good things

[wraith sphinx]

🙃

[pale prairie]

I grew up in the counter strike scene and some of the way bullet drop/impact/spread/damage calculation felt different in titanfall 2. The incorporation of movement was cool though

[marble crater]

Yes, game of the year level good things

[plucky flax]

Swedish engine

[white sky]

Alright yeah I can see what you mean then

[pale prairie]

Mmmmmmm still waiting to do my havoc grind then

[wraith sphinx]

Yes that's largely correct, UE5-specific tech lets development teams shorten the production pipeline so to speak, which both customers and CEOs love because that means being able to do more in less time, which makes the number go up

[pale prairie]

The use of terrain, wall running and grappling hook was insane though

[wraith sphinx]

how is this achieved? by offloading certain work to the enduser's PC, hence the performance issues

[royal totem]

~~don't flame me but now i need to try to see why smite is "so good" ~~

[white sky]

Learning that grapple hook, imo, was titanfall 2

[marble crater]

From what I am seeing customers don't love it when the game runs badly because of it

[white sky]

If you didn't use grapple in multi you were simply playing a different game

[pale prairie]

Yeah they should use the UK engine

[white sky]

I dont even buy games on release anymore unless its a Fromsoft game

[deft stump]

Deadlock, yeah.

[wraith sphinx]

UE5 games can be well optimized and run well, my personal favourite example is robocop rogue city

[pale prairie]

Just live your dream!

[plucky flax]

UK have like... total war series. And some other stuff idk

[white sky]

That game is unironically so good if you're a fan of robocop, i want more stuff outta that studio.

[wraith sphinx]

The problem most often is just that either there aren't enough people working on a developing game, or they don't get to work on it for long enough, tho the latter might be debatable depending on the context

[pale prairie]

Yeah some crazy shit can be done when you do

[wraith sphinx]

Yeah, it was a blast to play

[white sky]

You felt like Robocop

[wraith sphinx]

exactly

[pale prairie]

An excellent franchise honestly

[plucky flax]

Oh the planet coaster studio.,

They are UK

[white sky]

I still remember when I finally got down the spawn to spawn hook on the chasm map

I could get over the enemy spawn within 5 seconds of start with my cold war

That games skill ceiling was so rewarding

And what did they do?

[wraith sphinx]

anyways menace demo dropped today, gonna try it out instead of wrangling with error 2014tide

[white sky]

Make Apex Legends

[pale prairie]

Had the same feeling as killing someone at round start with a grenade in their spawn in Counter strike

[white sky]

Source games

Nothing quite like em

[pale prairie]

Mhmmm

[pale prairie]

Lmao

I imagine apex made them so much money though

A lotta twitch streams and shit

[white sky]

Probably but

Goddamn does it suck

"Just play Pathfinder dude he has the grappling hook"

Fuck you that things a zipline

[pale prairie]

Lmao

[crude flare]

Grappling hook in apex is weak baby mode. Tf2 grapple hook is best depiction of all time

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/slowy-going-across-bobby-bones-breaking-bobby-bones-slow-zipline-slowly-but-surely-gif-21774439

[pale prairie]

Team fortress 2 had a grappling hook?

[crude flare]

I will stab you with a fake knife

[marble crater]

I need Titanfall 3

[pale prairie]

As long as it’s not the knife from TF2 that let you take on my character skin and gamer tag

[pale prairie]

Do you deserve that though?

[modest perch]

i think we all do

[crude flare]

No promises

[marble crater]

Yes, but now that EA is owned by... well
I won't buy it even if it's released fuck that

[pale prairie]

No we aren’t getting it and it’s Sut’s fault. He flamed the CEO’s kid

[pale prairie]

Yeah gaming industry is about to be fucked

[modest perch]

whatever man ea is dead to me

[marble crater]

https://tenor.com/view/thegoon-bigoldgoon-ted-lasso-yes-yes-yes-yes-gif-701975896996955852

[pale prairie]

They’ve killed so many great studios

[swift stag]

I was finally able to get my damage back to respectful levels

Out DPSing vets and zealots

Always struggle to keep up with pick or mallot orgryn

So I'm fine with that

Of course these are just in pugs I can't compare to the old group I played with cause they got bored with the game

[marble crater]

I will never forgive them for Westwood and Bullfrog
At least we have Two Point now

[pale prairie]

For now…..

[marble crater]

Forever, it's on the internet

[patent steeple]

I have tried mk12 cha(d)xe on Gaze Vstrike psyker, and it worked very well.

crushers, maulers and ragers die quickly, and even monsters take decent damage from the heavies (but I could always swap from Flak and Cara to Unyielding and Cara, just to see how well that could work).

even captain boss shields break quicker with the cha(d)xe heavies compared to DS4 spam.

[marble crater]

Boss shields really don't like chain weapons

[thorn cedar]

yea chaxe12 is quite nice on psyker

[pale prairie]

Axes claim another one

[thorn cedar]

we can abuse the shit out of its push attack and it has boss damage we really cant get anywhere else

[plucky flax]

From fgs.

[thorn cedar]

chaxe has much more

not that others have none

[plucky flax]

[thorn cedar]

really deimos still wins out for me as our best weapon cause of the H2, its unique PA, and phat dodges. Also has reach.

[acoustic jacinth]

For EK + FGS. thoughts?

[bright summit]

IFR over Psychic vampire

[acoustic jacinth]

you do have a point with how this new patch is

i am shrieking ever 6-7 secs

[marble crater]

Warp splitting over the Assail add on as well

[bright summit]

If you use m1 at all take emypric shock and soul stealer but it's post patch who cares

[bright summit]

For the melee I assume

[marble crater]

It's also better for assail

[zealous wing]

so it would work on both melee and the assail

[acoustic jacinth]

nvm lol. was unaware it was for assail too

[zealous wing]

ye assail is affected by cleave

[acoustic jacinth]

great

[thorn cedar]

honestly im surprised its continued to be allowed to affect assail

[acoustic jacinth]

yeah, it's definitely good but i sadly don't really

m1 is just for the sniper tryna catch a peek

firebaaallll

[bright summit]

Also JaD over BM/quietude

But again post patch psyker who cares

[acoustic jacinth]

is JaD that good? don't get me wrong, sounds good in theory but it sounds like it might just get me accidentally blown up, i imagine myself going up on peril the moment i'm trying to edge it just right

that sounds god awful

psyker terms

[white sky]

Is soul blaze with the FGS a meme?

[jovial juniper]

Yeah

[white sky]

Thanks

[jovial juniper]

They should just make a weapon for dedicated dots build

Make it deal no damage

But has blessings that can apply bleed, fire, blaze and brittleness

[patent steeple]

it is a meme, but its the most effective meme strat imo (in terms of FGS, at least...)

the trick to making it at least somewhat work is to not take keystones, and running fire shriek with it always helps

[jovial juniper]

Skullcrusher even

Even shock

[patent steeple]

btw, is the toughness gain bubble node still needed (for auric), or can I take it off and put the extra point into something else? (blaze VB build, btw, and I really wanna see how much MM would help with damage on that build...)

alternatively, I could take off Inner Tranq as well and put the 2 points into KD...

[plucky flax]

Hmm empyric shock should be levelled with the 5% crit chance node.

I don't want to take channelled force but want es for this build.

[patent steeple]

Souldrinker is a decent alternative, because it also gives access to ES (just gotta have some soulblaze to make it worth taking)

[plucky flax]

I'm making my own version of syllo's extremely sus surge surge havoc build.

Gazer surge surge Xd

Not touching any soulblaze stuff.

[royal totem]

.........................

[patent steeple]

even Combustion should be enough imo (if you can afford it, of course)

[royal totem]

i tried the smite build people are going crazy about >.<

[marble crater]

Fake psyker

[plucky flax]

Nah the idea is to not have any soulblaze at all so if there's another psyker in team they get all the soulblaze stacks.

[marble crater]

Crazy about in what way

[royal totem]

reddit thing apparently according to krieger

[marble crater]

Smite bad

[plucky flax]

Apparently we are 'gret' players.

[patent steeple]

does it use Gaze? I think I saw a Gaze smite spammer at one point post-patch...

[jovial juniper]

Smite good

[royal totem]

yes

the theory is infinite smite with gaze

and ummm.... i remain unimpressed

[patent steeple]

tfw smite build is unimpressive

[royal totem]

you just walk forward and keep casting smite is basically how it works and ummm........ i mean i guess it can do damage and all but it just feels so dumb

you never really use the like shockwave thing or anything. just keep smiting

[marble crater]

Welcome to smyker

You don't get to play and neither gets your team, because you removed the entire melee part from the game

[patent steeple]

ye.

but is it even more brainless than just blaze VB spam?

[royal totem]

you've basically removed the game from the game

[royal totem]

i would argue so

[zealous wing]

at least vb lets you do stuff like this

lmk if you saw it

[marble crater]

All I saw was greatness

[summer prairie]

Agent if there's another SB psyker, I think you can get souldrinker procs without any of your own but not sure

[patent steeple]

I did see it (if "it" means you got flung off the map)

[zealous wing]

😔

[royal totem]

LOL

[plucky flax]

I'll try extremely sus build at some point.

Next time we play you go purg.

[summer prairie]

surge surge isn't very sus, you kill all specialists and most elites

[plucky flax]

I'm not using dd

Can never hit headshot with it.

[summer prairie]

dd does give flat and crit damage too though

[jovial juniper]

No

You still have to dodge with smite

[plucky flax]

Ye but this is assails build.

[zealous wing]

not if you wall hug

[summer prairie]

assail surge?

[plucky flax]

I dunno it's meme

I'd remove 10% ranged damage node for just a dream tho actually

Just for some extra tankiness.

[summer prairie]

questionable toughness gain

[plucky flax]

Peril gain and crit.

[summer prairie]

I guess without ER and Warp ghost it might be enough

[zealous wing]

and SG

[summer prairie]

Just a dream is a bit problematic with SG if you use assail/staves

you tend to just sit at 100 peril

[plucky flax]

Hmm tru

Then 10% range damage is nice too

For assails

[thorn cedar]

not too much an issue with assail

you just need to quell off 0.01%

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/played-gif-13534492

[summer prairie]

problematic as in you don't get as much value out of it when you just want to WU spam at 100% peril

[pale prairie]

Lmao that’s dangerous for your mental health holding onto videos of yourself getting murdered

[plucky flax]

If souldrinker works for me without any soulblaze application then I'd take that over channeling force.

Free crit chance

Leeching from other psyker.

[thorn cedar]

that's why u dont take WU (;

[summer prairie]

going to have to test that next time with Uptime and see

[pale prairie]

For 10 sec it isn’t as useful. Correct

[summer prairie]

With some staff SG builds you always sit at 100%, not even trying to stay under

[pale prairie]

Yeah it’s definitely not as useful on staff SG builds

[bitter hare]

i cant even send pictures of a build to get opinions damn-

[pale prairie]

You can build it on Darktide gameslantern

Then share the link

[bitter hare]

shockingly thats where i did it-

[pale prairie]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor

[bitter hare]

wait they have personal links so i can just send that link here right?

[pale prairie]

Yes

[bitter hare]

alr alr

[pale prairie]

You have a white name. To prevent bots and spamming you have to reach a certain number of posts to be given a red name and get image permissions

[plucky flax]

I played with a psyker. He was on purg and bubble yet he demanded me to play shriek. I was like bruh why don't you go shriek and I go bubble since you're already on purg.

[bitter hare]

yeah that is fair

[pale prairie]

What were you playing?

He is scared of snipers

[plucky flax]

I went bubble knight and he didn't even switch to shriek.

[pale prairie]

Plasma

[plucky flax]

So we had 2 bubbles.

[pale prairie]

Hahahahahhahahahahahahah shriek knight

[plucky flax]

And I did more damage than him -.-

[pale prairie]

How novel

[plucky flax]

Super weirdchamp man

[pale prairie]

I heard only 3.5 people can do that

[bitter hare]

neither of you had brain rupture at all?

[summer prairie]

shriek knight is good

[plucky flax]

I dunno what he ran for blitz. I had assails.

[pale prairie]

I imagine it’s not bad. Would that go warp siphon?

[plucky flax]

Ye but he was on purg why does he want me on shriek wtf

[wind wind]

GIGA important question since i have returned from work

Do i

a) continue my run of the corporate sector alliance in modded Empire at war Thrawns Revenge

Or

b) do i continue playing ogryn and finsh my weekly tasks?

[plucky flax]

I'd just steal his soulblaze.

[summer prairie]

DD still I guess

[vast yew]

Smite/Purg best combo

[plucky flax]

And have no blaze away.

[pale prairie]

Hmmmmm generating peril might get tight without quickshards

Or just get punched with JaD

[pale prairie]

Yeah it was a dumb ask

[plucky flax]

Is tru tho

[pale prairie]

Maybe he was confused how soulblaze stealing works. Though his staff could take it from you

[marble crater]

A
Nobody needs melk bucks

[plucky flax]

Tbh that's not a bad idea. In the prematch lobby just assign soulblaze priority.

Xd

Give purg guy #1 rights.

[pale prairie]

It should be how havoc works

[plucky flax]

So if some noob is not comfortable running purg shriek I can run some whatever + shriek and stil lhelp them.

Pro team player

[pale prairie]

Yeah or having two purge Psykers

Hehehehe

[plucky flax]

[woeful sigil]

I made a female psyker just to hear voice lines and I ended up getting stalked by a dude

[marble crater]

Unlucky

[wind wind]

Aight. Destroying Allegiances with Bulwark IIIs it is.

Also i recently captured mandalore

Let the Kedalbe spam commence

[pale prairie]

Lmao that’s funny but also fucked up

[woeful sigil]

never again

[pale prairie]

That game was peak

[marble crater]

I wish people would stalk me for female voice lines, but nobody ever talks to me even

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/you-don't-want-that-bunny-schneiderman-mid-century-modern-you're-not-going-to-like-that-mcm-gif-16634956941945222122

Bruh you hate talking to people

[pale prairie]

How does stalking even work in this games

You can leave lobbies and shit

Block people

[marble crater]

I do holy shit, someone from another discord asks me how I am every day, I can't take it anymore

[wind wind]

Still is. But you overeat it quickly now. At least i do.

However, Thrawns Revenge will get an Update soon (soon for Corey loses time lmao). And guess what faction gets a complete overhaul?

The Empire of the Hand 😍😍😍

[woeful sigil]

he went on my steam profile page, found my twitter, went back about a year and a half to a post where I put my discord invite link, and joined

[pale prairie]

Hahahahahahha

[woeful sigil]

immediately removed me when I changed back to male psyker

[pale prairie]

@marble crater how are you doing buddy?

[woeful sigil]

blocked on steam and discord lmao

[wind wind]

Marry him/her already and call it a day

[pale prairie]

Holy shit that’s some peak incel behavior

[vast yew]

what the hell

[pale prairie]

Jesus Christ

Wait THIS discord?

[bitter hare]

just want to see how this build looks and get some opinion on it https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9fff02ae-d7da-422d-b636-637513fc3cd4/testing-3

[woeful sigil]

no my server

[marble crater]

See it isn't even like that, just "hello" then when I reply "How are you?" in my DMs just tell me what you want, I don't care about the pleasantries

[wind wind]

Just kidding but i wish a chick would be like half that Interested in me lmao

Cries in perpertually single

[pale prairie]

Ohhhhh wow that’s not great

[bitter hare]

wtf LOL

[pale prairie]

The internet has gotten fucking crazy

[bitter hare]

thats fucking weird

[marble crater]

Oh, like actual stalking, I thought he just invited you to a game again maybe. This is unhinged

[pale prairie]

Sorry that happened to you Bunnii

[bitter hare]

you say that like people just out of nowhere became creeps, this is sadly just normal nowadays

[strong gulch]

Bet that guy thinks he's a "nice guy".

[woeful sigil]

if this is what women have to deal with then my lord I don't blame them for not playing games

[strong gulch]

Sorry that happened.

So gross

[pale prairie]

Don’t worry you’ll get murdered by a nice girl soon I am sure

[marble crater]

If you ever wondered why they don't like to use voice chat, there is your answer

[pale prairie]

I meant more how little effort it takes to find people like this

It used to be harder I feel like

[bitter hare]

ah that is fair

[vast yew]

There's a reason people make entire careers around OSINT

[bitter hare]

thats probably because the worlds also become more accustomed to being on the internet especially after the whole covid incident

[pale prairie]

Yeah I get really depressed seeing posts about being called slurs in competitive games just for being a girl or using voice chat

[marble crater]

Because all accounts are connected now I guess, I don't know

[vast yew]

Every once in a while in Valorant there'll be a girl on my team and some cringelord will start something

[marble crater]

Speaking of stalking though
@strong gulch hi

[pale prairie]

@bitter hare alright first off on this build, if you’re using. Voidstrike you are fucking chad

[wind wind]

🙏🏻

[strong gulch]

Hi

[woeful sigil]

voidstrike actually rips

[bitter hare]

my normal build id be using inferno mainly cause im already using brain rupture

[pale prairie]

It’s so messed up. Games are supposed to be a fun escape not a place to regurgitate alpha bro podcast behavior

[bitter hare]

im just tryna play with something with gaze in this one

[pale prairie]

It does. It it’s harder to use these days compared to like gunker or purge

[woeful sigil]

if you're a crit build and you got double shot on crit + crit chance on higher peril + warp unbound its a literal mg42

infinite ammo

[strong gulch]

WTF. I some smeared chocolate on my desk and hands. I ate that protein bar a long time ago. How is it only now getting everywhere??

[vast yew]

Plus usually the girl stops comming as much to avoid the asshat, which leads to just worse performance for the whole team.

[bitter hare]

wait i might lowk change my 2nd blessing then on voidstrike LMAO

[pale prairie]

You cough have animals?

[vast yew]

Actually, quick question: do you guys prefer Surge Voidstrike or Flurry Voidstrike

[woeful sigil]

also I got sick of trying to close distance on plasma gunners so it serves a purpose

[pale prairie]

Yep. They don’t ever really voice chat except to HELP THE TEAM and now less likely to ever do it again

[strong gulch]

It wasn't them. This is definitely me. How did I do it?? No one knows.

[pale prairie]

I prefer surge cause consistency can get fucked by my gambling addiction

[marble crater]

Check your clothes, maybe you smeared it on them

[vast yew]

You...uh... you sure it's chocolate?

[bitter hare]

me who uses brain rupture and enhanced psychonics:

[woeful sigil]

also how come no one ever talks about supressing ranged with it

[strong gulch]

Yes

[zealous wing]

hey bean

[vast yew]

Did you taste it to make sure

[marble crater]

Did you taste test it?

[zealous wing]

LOWER YOUR ICON RENDER DISTANCE

[marble crater]

HA

[woeful sigil]

you can literally make an entire platoon of reapers cowar and hide their face instead of line firing your squad with voidstrike

[vast yew]

🤝

[strong gulch]

I don't see any. I just wiped my hands on them after the smear.

[zealous wing]

did it get ON the keyboard perhaps?

like a piece fell on V or something

[strong gulch]

Oh. A bit of chocolate fell into the grated keyboard shelf.

[woeful sigil]

dookie

[bitter hare]

real

[strong gulch]

Nah I pick poop up regularly.

[zealous wing]

such is life with animals

[marble crater]

[zealous wing]

[bitter hare]

the fact kriegers been typing for a good solid two minutes scares me LOL

[zealous wing]

also i cant get over these stupid helmets. i almost want one just so i can have a laugh whenever

[marble crater]

Don't worry, it's probably about how I am bad at the game or something

[zealous wing]

youre on xbox its not allowed

[royal totem]

is this when i tell Krieger i played one more round to make sure i was playing it right and make sure it's 100% boring?

[bitter hare]

do you consistently die to bombers throwing you off cliffs?

[white sky]

Most of the best looking gear for any class is the straight penance gear im ngl

[woeful sigil]

I was gonna buy the white one but the green eyes are what turned me off of it, if it were blue it would match that blue/white set

[strong gulch]

Bomber throw a nade directly at my head too often. Been stagered by it.

[bitter hare]

that is actually lowk the goofiest helmet ive seen so far

[zealous wing]

at the very least yeah

[vast yew]

what about the gay penance gear

[zealous wing]

im mainly keeping an eye for something very specific but i dont know EXACTLY what

[pale prairie]

@bitter hare I would probably have carapace damage on FGS instead of sprint because voidstrike can take a while to kill crushers if there’s a big pack.

I also am not a huge fan of wounds on psyker as opposed to toughness or health but if you are still learning it’s fine

You really want perfect timing on this build. It is 15% free damage to everything especially since you’re crit focused.

Depending on how much you melee soulstealer might be better than warp expenditure

Smite is good as is and the two sub nodes are wasted points that can go elsewhere.

Warpsplitting works really well with VS

I would also grab EE if you can to help with ranged threats.

I would also go DD instead of Warp siphon cause the crit damage and finesse really help. (Might want to go the other direction on SG too but haven’t done that in a while so don’t know the peril gains)

Drop puppet master and grab solidity, Empyric resolve, and ghost.

[zealous wing]

like, i know what vibe i want, but idk colours or what the clothing items i want are called

[white sky]

Hm, solid 9/10. Also good but I'm not massively into most zealot cosmetics.

[zealous wing]

a hood like this, but more close, like the zealots, similar to this head piece (img 2). especially want voice modification

[marble crater]

No, despite the clips I share I am actually not awful at the game

[royal totem]

even the second round i played, smyker is still boring!

[white sky]

I liked the one hat that just rotated out of shop for psyker but not for 1400 Aquilas

[patent jacinth]

Correct

[zealous wing]

torso, i want a fuckin cape, or this fucking jacket someone posted in driptide, lemme find

[vast yew]

Mister E just put out a video on Smykers so expect quite a few of them in the days to come

[patent jacinth]

You hold 2 buttons

[white sky]

I bet i know the exact one you mean

[pale prairie]

He’s just sort of awful

[patent jacinth]

and watch everyone else attempt to play the game while you hold it hostage

[white sky]

Oh, nope

[royal totem]

i'm not a big fan of content creators

[pale prairie]

Dear fucking god

[zealous wing]

you probably meant the triple coat one

[pale prairie]

This guy is a plague on Psykers

[white sky]

The big ass imperial guard greatcoat I see every psyker in lol

[zealous wing]

that one is also good, but i saw this coat and i know better now what i want

[zealous wing]

yeah triple coat

[vast yew]

I don't mind Smite when it's used to stun a group that the team might otherwise have problems with, but whenever I get a full-blown "Smyker" that just holds it down on every single enemy I want to hurl

[white sky]

This one looks better for most psyker voices i feel

[pale prairie]

I am not angry just disappointed

[zealous wing]

it was up when i was starting out but was very anti mtx mindset and then it left and im like... FUCK dude that was probably the coolist coat id see ever

[pale prairie]

But at least you came to the right conclusion

[marble crater]

Time to test EK with Elite instead of Maniac damage, death to Scab

[royal totem]

i confirmed A. i'm not playing it wrong. B. it's still boring af

[zealous wing]

i also love the prosthetic leg

[white sky]

I honestly think it only works on a Savant Psyker but I'm weird about cosmetics matching personality

[pale prairie]

@bitter hare also True Aim talent DOES affect Voidstrike. (One of the reasons I like surge warp nexus on it)

[zealous wing]

the walking sound gives me joy

[pale prairie]

Alright I am proud of you again

[zealous wing]

what personality is this psyker?

[marble crater]

Noob personality

[pale prairie]

I saw a vet skin with two prosthetic legs and thought of you

[white sky]

My Beloved

Could also see loner

[pale prairie]

Smyker

[zealous wing]

youre both blocked :(

[bitter hare]

im lowk more suprised you didnt mention the deflector + kinetic deflection at all but this does help

[royal totem]

here's a guide on how to play smyker
A. use smite.
B. press scrier's gaze
C. repeat
D. scream in mind-numbing boredom and switch to any other psyker build

[white sky]

The purples give a royal feeling tho that I think suits My Beloved

[pale prairie]

PURPLE LIGHTNING FOR MY PURPLE OUTFIT

[strong gulch]

purple

CW build

whichever psyker has the funniest or most unhinged high peril or explosion lines.

[zealous wing]

THAT FITS THIS OUTFIT

well not smite but

vibe

[sinful perch]

Life is cruel a hound I lit on fire ran next to the Daemonhost and then died spreading the fire and setting it off 😭

[plucky flax]

You should zap rotten crusher in havoc.

It's fun and very quick ttk.

[zealous wing]

this is my suipsyker

[pale prairie]

Nah KD+deflector is solid while learning. Eventually (especially with EE) you’ll probably notice that you might not need KD or deflector as much. Regardless if you grab warp ghost you’ll get a free +3 to your stamina so can grab another toughness or health curio

[strong gulch]

I hope they fix KF proccing on un aggroed DH.

[white sky]

i wear this rn until i get out of heresy and feel like the character deserves to be uprated to finer garb

[pale prairie]

But that’s green

[sinful perch]

Yeah it basically makes it so whenever one is in a 10 mile radius you just simply cannot use the inferno staff whatsoever

[zealous wing]

ELECTROKINETIC

[strong gulch]

Luckily wildfire doesn't apply to DH, but other sources of SB.

[pale prairie]

But that’s blue

[royal totem]

@pale prairie i'll have you know i'm going back to inferno or EK

[zealous wing]

default stave is gold

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/youre-my-favorite-mobius-m-mobius-owen-wilson-loki-i-like-you-gif-22364622

[pale prairie]

The lightning is blue

[zealous wing]

THERE HAPPY!?

[pale prairie]

So happy

I got the blue backpack too

Fucking stupid

[zealous wing]

its stupid but not as dumb as the helms

[pale prairie]

Just finding excuses to give fat shark money

[pale prairie]

For sure

[bitter hare]

i just found the combo to be pretty good over all, mainly so then i can keep things like gunners and reapers distracted on me so my teammates can swoop in without issue, though this also implies me having shriek on hand too i can prob swap it off since if im using gaze im gonna be more focused on aggressiveness anyways

[zealous wing]

i like the transmitter more

[bitter hare]

it pretty much felt like having a ogryn/arbitrator shield using that combo

[pale prairie]

So empathic evasion gives a lot of range immunity. Anytime you are in a position to get bullets you just spam left click while moving towards cover. I am just saying as you get better at sliding and positioning you might find yourself using those tools less. For instance I know a havoc 40 purge staff user who has always used deflector and Kinetic deflection but recently dropped KD because of the free stamina in the tree

[zealous wing]

i dont think ill ever drop KD for my SG build

[pale prairie]

Exactly! At the end of the day Darktide is about killing threats not outlasting them

[zealous wing]

being able to tank a DH is always going to be a handy thing

[royal totem]

Darktide is also about customizing your tree to how you enjoy it........within reason

[pale prairie]

Yeah if you ever run with hexis be prepared to tank DH

Guy loves them

[bitter hare]

i use kd alot for my main build mainly cause my main loadout consists of having warpflame as a secondary damage for crowd control and brain rupture to pick off more immediate threats so then id have a defensive option available

[royal totem]

ok i'll make sure Hexis has to fight DH's with me

[pale prairie]

SMITE

[zealous wing]

oh no if theres a DH we avoid her, but if its havoc, and theres a ritual, i want a chance to live ty very much

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/proud-so-gif-24294972

[bitter hare]

shooting lightning out of ur fingers is funny tho

[zealous wing]

if you trigger her intentionally youre literally on your own unless we agree to fight before hand

[bitter hare]

just wish the sub talents for it didnt feel so bland

[royal totem]

~~good thing Hexis didn't hear about what happened last night so won't have an elevated opinion of me. ~~

[zealous wing]

the auric clutch?

[pale prairie]

It’s funny for the first 5 min then it gets boring cause it shuts everything down except bosses hahaha

[royal totem]

i think if i trigger intentionally...... i'm just dead LOL

[zealous wing]

specifically high intensity auric?

HISTG

[royal totem]

yes it was HISTG

[zealous wing]

i even gave you a

[bitter hare]

i mean if it lets me get out of a bad scenario fast then idgaf

[royal totem]

oh no. i don't want people to expect greatness from me

[bitter hare]

i love ANY method to torture the fuck outta the goons

[royal totem]

expect mediocrity from me and you'll never be disappointed

[pale prairie]

Purge staff? Should provide insane CC and safety. KD should only be needed for bosses

[zealous wing]

we had a convo about shakieness and everything

[royal totem]

ah shoot. we did

on that run i was using inferno staff+bubble btw

[pale prairie]

Yeah it’s decent on voidstrike for big bad situations. Just don’t spam it

[bitter hare]

yeah usually kd helps alot for the monstrosities or on the off chance i just wanna box up a daemonhost for the funny

[pale prairie]

Do the shriek

Do it

Do it

All the flame

[bitter hare]

BURN

EVERYTHING

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/fire-breathing-dragon-gif-2717638591291048781

[royal totem]

i switch between inferno+bubble, inferno+shriek, and EK+shriek

[empty pivot]

Is crystal will bugged?

[bitter hare]

though speaking of the warp siphon, mainly cause i do wanna try and have high SG activity but idk HOW viable it can be but it just feels like it makes sense you would want to try and upkeep SG as much as possible

[strong gulch]

not that I'm aware of

[pale prairie]

Yeah sure it does BUT precognition increases your crit damage AND lets you build stacks of SG through weakspot kills. DD lets you compound that extra crit damage with yet more damage and crit

Disrupt destiny on the right side

[bitter hare]

🤔

[proper osprey]

It already has inf uptime with psy aura

Go dd for more damage

[bitter hare]

fair enough

[fierce crest]

do fgs projectiles count as ranged or melee

[proper osprey]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e81f1c9-3b63-4dc3-809b-9aee0aef4d51/evil-hatchetmancer

This is what I use

[proper osprey]

I’d assume ranged

[jovial juniper]

Ranged

[proper osprey]

They are warp attacks

[jovial juniper]

It's why you can't apply Blazing Spirit with it

[plucky flax]

I only expect good play from karien.

[jovial juniper]

Because the blazing on the sword is melee only

[fierce crest]

the enhanced melee hits of force swords are warp also

[royal totem]

What a relief

[fierce crest]

and how do we feel about the new shout talent

[marble crater]

Who says that Plasma Gunners are difficult?

[bitter hare]

well now the issue is i cant even get solidity and ER now cause i have the other things oh god...

[marble crater]

Didn't use it yet, but I doubt it can compete with flames

[jovial juniper]

Solo vented the dog

[marble crater]

Yes

[lone fern]

does the new update change anything about the infernal staff build ?

[pale prairie]

You can live without since you have Battle meditation. What’s your build look like now?

Might be some talent you can trim down

[pale prairie]

You can get souldrinker

[marble crater]

Some talents will be easier to get and you might be able to get more good ones, other than that nothing changed about the core of the build

[pale prairie]

Warpghost makes peril edging easy

[sinful perch]

Just did my first auric and ngl not too bad coming from Damnation

[marble crater]

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/do-it-again-agent-connelly-agent-bill-sphinx-south-park-s3e11-gif-21682647

[sinful perch]

I shall. Biggest difference I saw is that specialists spawn in groups way way more. Basically any time there was a trapper or a bomber it was 2-3 at once

[pale prairie]

Yep shotgunners come 10 at a time

[jovial juniper]

H40 ready already

[marble crater]

This boss was also bugged, spawned there when we entered the area and didn't move at all until we attacked him

[sinful perch]

I even got a few compliments ingame when I said it was my first auric 🔥

We out here

[radiant frigate]

illisi single target damage
actual suffering

[marble crater]

Thinking about playing auric is worse than playing auric for the first time

[marble crater]

We need to buff illisi

[radiant frigate]

make illisi great again

[marble crater]

MIGA

[radiant frigate]

if all the other force swords can have single target and cleave it's only fair that illisi should get some too

[topaz mesa]

Has anyone figured out what the top scriers gaze build is yet?

[radiant frigate]

or an empower toggle rather than the single bonk

[bitter hare]

give me two seconds to rebuild it here rq

ion the site

[sinful perch]

I stayed away for so long ngl because I thought it would be terrible but it's just more enemies and that's kinda it

[marble crater]

Yeah and the team is usually better and nicer

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9fff02ae-d7da-422d-b636-637513fc3cd4/testing-3 this is what it looks like now

[pale prairie]

Dumpf

[pale prairie]

That’s what the events are for! Spicing it up

[deft stump]

Decided duo mortis... had to clutch plasma trapper sniper wave. I love healing 'nades.

[pale prairie]

Alright IF you want those talents and are willing to trim it down. You could swap Battle Meditation, By Crack of Bone, and Quietude (or soul stealer but I bet you’ll get more toughness from this than quietude).

[bitter hare]

forgot i swapped voidstrikes 2nd blessing with surger btw

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-my-boy-curtis-payne-house-of-payne-ho-hate-s9e4-gif-25259918

[marble crater]

Another common Karien clutch

[deft stump]

Void 'nades after was carrying cos bs trappers again.

[pale prairie]

Remember you don’t need a +3 stamina curio anymore cause pathing to warpghost gave you +3 from the tree

[deft stump]

I went kraks because someone wanted to see Lethal Prox kraks.

Pain. But at least murders reapers.

[bitter hare]

i assume there is a cap to how much additional stamina you can have

[patent jacinth]

You take gaze and spend all 30 points

[deft stump]

Kinda. +9 curios, +2 weapon and whatever talent nodes give.

[marble crater]

No, but there is a cap to how much you realistically need

[deft stump]

Lies. 17 stam gud.

19 stam funni.

[marble crater]

Don't listen to Karien, she is addicted to stamina

[topaz mesa]

Well this is not exactly the case because I figured out that that node that gives you 25% damage reduction but increases your peril is not good for it

[pale prairie]

No cap but you don’t need it. I also would HIGHLY RECOMMEND dropping purloin providence for True Aim

[bitter hare]

nah she has a point stamina funny as fuck

[topaz mesa]

Do you try and run all the soul blaze stuff with scriers gaze ?

[bitter hare]

but besides that im already running with KD + deflector on my greatsword so most of my stamina is mostly being put into running around and pushing so i dont need that much

[bitter hare]

yeah true i got enough talents quelling from just spamming m1 into a horde

[pale prairie]

Exactly

[marble crater]

Psyker can sprint slide and get stamina back while sliding, you don't even need stamina for running, other than being lazy

[bitter hare]

i am lazy tho

[pale prairie]

Or even if you grab ER and solidity you can jump low again with just a. Few taps of quell button

[deft stump]

Is true. Also funny when you can push too much.

[marble crater]

Now there are two stamina addicts

[bitter hare]

i have talents that are buffed with high peril so having to manually quell isnt that big a deal

or is it the other way around...

[pale prairie]

Mhmmm you are getting it. This is why I don’t like BCoB

[bitter hare]

idk

[deft stump]

I mean, Stam regen funni.

[bitter hare]

i mean it helps maintain SG

its like a cycle

keeping it high for non SG and then keeping it low for when your in SG

[pale prairie]

It does but you shouldn’t be using melee you should be big booming staff to take advantage of the higher chance of surge procs

[bitter hare]

your underestimate my need and desire to run into the crowd and just mindlessly slaughter with my fgs

[pale prairie]

Yes but it comes off cooldown so fast that you don’t need to sweat having FULL SG stacks

[pale prairie]

That is a slightly different build hahahah but your current one should be able to do it

[bitter hare]

yeah my entire ideal is that im a pure melee enthusiast and i will use any right to get up close and just go to town

usually die in the process too

[pale prairie]

You can do a melee focused build

Just have staff as just in case (or use gun)

[bitter hare]

o yeah obviously

i rather use staff cause i dont wanna have to deal with sharing ammo

[pale prairie]

If the focus is melee then don’t bother pathing left to ER and just grab warp expenditure and some DR talents

[pale prairie]

Reconlas MK 12 is extremely ammo efficient if you only use it for specials and bosses. Won’t even need to pick up ammo

[bitter hare]

remind me again whats DR-

[topaz mesa]

Man, you guys need to get a room together

[marble crater]

Deep Rock, without the Galatic

[pale prairie]

Damage resistance

[bitter hare]

ah

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/rock-everythingeverywhereallatonce-gif-25516405

[knotty sage]

How does that work for electro staff? I only receive 5% crit chance after 2 left click auto attacks?

[marble crater]

If you shoot the normal balls with left click you can shoot two, it doesn't work with the charge

If you crit, you fire two times

[rigid iris]

my psyker will not fucking

keep casting channeled abilitiues

I don't understand

[serene moon]

It is official. I can still crash to desktop when I hit enough enemies with Smite. I love this game :)

[marble crater]

I also don't understand

[knotty sage]

But 5% works for every attack from statt. At least show crit % mod tells so

[marble crater]

Yes, it gives you +5% crit chance. And it also gives you double primary shots whenever you crit.

[empty pivot]

nope only on void do you get 2

strike

[marble crater]

For the charged attack yes

[empty pivot]

^

[rigid iris]

I'm just stupid

like most smykers

[marble crater]

They should remove the blessing from the other staves really

[strong gulch]

Are you holding the channel / charged button (RMB), filling the bar, then M1 / primary fire (LMB)?

[rigid iris]

I was forgetting

to hold

lmb

after holding rmb

because I haven't used it in so long that I forgot that it is not like purg

[marble crater]

Smyker mechanics

[rigid iris]

smychanics

[rancid geyser]

So i tried it for like an hour -- am i just locked into warp ghost if i want to use the force greatsword?

its like the only way i can think of holding high peril for unstable power

[strong gulch]

WG is nice, but with scrier's and assail, you get plenty of peril without WG. Especially with JaD + scrier's + assail.

[rancid geyser]

im not using scrier and without Warp Ghost it you hold peril for like 2 seconds

[strong gulch]

If you are doing melee + non-scrier's, then you have less peril gen at your finger tips.

[rancid geyser]

i gen a lot of peril, its holding onto it im starting to dislike

think im actually locked into warpghost

not that its a problem the more i look at it

[strong gulch]

I should say you have less continuous peril gen. Thus staying in the 65% or higher peril sweetpot is harder to maintain.

[rancid geyser]

sweet spot is 80%

[strong gulch]

That's one of the reasons why many of us were so excited about WG.

[rancid geyser]

80% is where you get the max values

[marble crater]

WG is just perfect for us

[rancid geyser]

can go up to 100, tap r 2 times go down to like 78%

[strong gulch]

65% is when a lot of peril specific things begin to really influence your stuff.

yes higher is better, but there's going to be peaks and vallies

I'm not saying stay at 65%, if that's now you're reading that.

[rancid geyser]

they all give incramental boosts at 20% 60% and 80%

this was something i checked the last time i was labbing with mods

[pale prairie]

Alright potato said to not go above 65%

[marble crater]

[fierce crest]

[strong gulch]

There is a difference in how OwtW behaves at 65% percent peril, that's why I used it as a min.

[rancid geyser]

even stuff like warp rider is 6.6% at 20% +6.6% every 20% up to 80

makes sense since its easier to code that way too

[pale prairie]

seems to increment more than every 20%

[rancid geyser]

if you have the buff check mod could you show?

[pale prairie]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3094028505

[rancid geyser]

last i remembered almost all of them were gated from 20-80% f peril for their buffs

[pale prairie]

Kuli did code digging to come up with all the blessing and talent mechanics

[rancid geyser]

the line of code isnt there 🙁

see like how he has the line of text for warp ghost?

you could go into the note pad to check that line

and actually see the numbers

[pale prairie]

or you could? I don't really care. I trust Kuli

[rancid geyser]

not having the line for warp rider makes me think something is fishy

[zealous wing]

where's the nerd when you need him

[rancid geyser]

nothign wrong with being skeptical but atm if i copy pasta the lines they have on that page

i can directly find it on the notepad for warpghost

[pale prairie]

"linearly increases damage"

[rancid geyser]

since its tagged

[willow hazel]

Does enhanced blitz half the peril cost for psyker blitzes?

[thorn cedar]

Assail and BB are free with an EP charge

Smite has no change in cost

oh you mean the uh

maelstrom modifier

you get two extra assail shards

[rancid geyser]

i trust this btw, just a bit skeptical

[thorn cedar]

i believe BB charges slightly faster

and smite also gets a slight something, probably jump speed or some shit

[zealous wing]

i have no idea where in this code to find the fuckin thing

😭

[rancid geyser]

still weird if these work more linearly but the blessings dont -- not sure what the design choice for that is

[willow hazel]

I thing it halfs the peril cost of assail, which has been messing up my gun + vent builds

[zealous wing]

oh wait maybe i found the section

so warp rider, is what you want the code for?

[rancid geyser]

either way the sweet spot is 80% because its the max value you need for Unstable Power and Warp Nexus

[rancid geyser]

please

you could just dm it to me if you dont want to drop it here

[ornate hamlet]

bros are keepin secrets

[zealous wing]

ill send you the link here, im just trying to find specifically it, since they're not named the same shit

its updated though, i see the vulnerable mind one and such

[bright summit]

i reinvented fun and ethical ek

[rancid geyser]

no, more like im still learning code but also learning how to edit and read it and its super nerdy and yall prolly dont need that in here XD

[pale prairie]

I thought EK was OP now its ethical?

cause no brain burst?

[rancid geyser]

EK super ethical

still gotta try not to get blasted by hordies

[pale prairie]

Monsoon says OP alot

[rancid geyser]

it is OP in a different way from purgy imo

[bright summit]

beacuse most things in darktide are overpowered, yes

[rancid geyser]

i think its op because i can spam my m1 and dudes dont shoot back at me

most of the time

[marble crater]

EK is not OP, I died using it the other day

[strong gulch]

EK has been the more ethical choice forever. It's doesn't deafen or blind other players.

[pale prairie]

I know that just curious about what specifically makes EK ethical now

[rancid geyser]

it not being a fire staff

[strong gulch]

Maybe ur overpowered.

[strong gulch]

Make garbage kill everything.

[rancid geyser]

WHAT?!?!

[strong gulch]

lmao

oh

Darktide: The Ethical Update

[pale prairie]

again I KNOW THAT.

[rancid geyser]

monsoon want the best of both worlds but taking the worst halves from both 🙁

[bright summit]

yeah i know, reality anchor should help with that, m1 enable m2 with CF + ES into M2 QQ

[marble crater]

What is this for?

[pale prairie]

havoc 50

[sturdy reef]

Where are my ethical plasma gunners

[rancid geyser]

in the dirt

[still ingot]

waiter! waiter! more plasma please!!!

[sturdy reef]

Is it grass fed?

[bright summit]

an m1/m2 hybrid ek playstyle ideally

[rancid geyser]

nothing ethical about us or the enemy having plasmas

[still ingot]

free range plasma gunners

[rancid geyser]

actively think that gun existing is a war crime

[sturdy reef]

Plasma gun isnt that op

[rancid geyser]

not anymore i guess

[marble crater]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[rancid geyser]

because it can be used to kill crushers

you still cry when the wall moves towards you, but you can cry and still kill

[marble crater]

Just make two builds, one for this and one for the other

[zealous wing]

most of these are obvious

[marble crater]

I killed them all #psyker-class message

[bright summit]

bigger range target pool and also something to get back the feeling of playing something thats numerically worse but can still perform well with good play

[marble crater]

Good luck and have fun then

[pale prairie]

I think its hidden with buffs

[rancid geyser]

DEFLECTOR GAMING!

i actually think deflector is the coolest blessing in the game XD

[zealous wing]

"cleave from peril" warp splitter
"reload speed warp" surety of arms

psyker_damage_vs_ogryns_and_monsters

vulnerable minds

but like

[sturdy reef]

Make deflector base again

[zealous wing]

😭

[rancid geyser]

Warp Rider might actually have no direct line to search

[strong gulch]

make it base or let us see while blocking

[rancid geyser]

i cant find that shit

[zealous wing]

im checking other tabs

ive done server admin shit so i DO know how to find shit... eventually

if i knew what it was called in the code it would be so much faster

... is there a debug mode?

i know the mods themselves have their own debug mode

[marble crater]

Because it is #psyker-class message

[rancid geyser]

could it be under a warp charge amount tag?

[zealous wing]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-it-yes-thats-it-that-right-there-omg-that-thats-what-i-mean-gif-17579879

i can check warp splitting's language

[rancid geyser]

i have to step away from the PC but i will legit scour that note pad later

[zealous wing]

kjsndvkjsnv

useless

bruh what

[marble crater]

Dueling Sword, surely

[sturdy reef]

Not useless

Its just max and min values

[weary crane]

Yes, and give force swords the ability to parry ranged shots

[patent mango]

scriers gaze now parries ranged attacks

[marble crater]

https://tenor.com/view/obi-wan-kenobi-qui-gon-jin-dodge-lightsaber-star-wars-gif-16333751

[royal totem]

if force sword could block ranged in base form, i'd use it

[marble crater]

It could in the past

[jovial juniper]

The most broken shit in the game

[strong gulch]

unlimited dodges

[rancid geyser]

Wish i was actively playing psyker when that was a thing

[zealous wing]

i give up

for now

[patent mango]

it was terrible

back then all we did was brainburst

[marble crater]

When I started playing after Xbox release I was SO confused when I saw everyone talking about unlimited dodges, but mine only had 5. I thought I was doing something wrong or had the wrong weapon

[patent mango]

inf dodgess was also hilarious

i hugged a wall and spammed dodge

[strong gulch]

RIP perma crab

[patent mango]

godmode enabled

[rancid geyser]

so like it it take 4 hits to kill a crucher with the GS in psykanium how many for a 10k hp one

like 6-7?

[zealous wing]

it takes me 5 heavys with no buffs no peril, to kill an auric (6.5k) crusher. basic maths, 8 hits for a 10k hp one

not focusing on only stabs either, just, shit that would be in basic combat, minus the unreliable peril percentage

[rancid geyser]

well its 5 hits yeah with no peril

but im not going at them with no peril

[zealous wing]

with the right buffs, it can go down to 2-3 reliably

[rancid geyser]

and now its easy to sit at 90-100%

[zealous wing]

on your numbers only it be 7 hits

6 if youre lucky

5 for mine, 4 if IM lucky

it was said earlier, crushers were made of paper, now its just, more paper

[rancid geyser]

consistently gettign 2060 dps

eeeh

imma keep shooting them

best part is i can use the special to get an immediate 45% peril

wishing i never upgraded it now

[wind spruce]

We gotta stop this obsession with talking about warp rider changing breakpoints. 2025 psyker has like 8 different damage buffs that are variable lmao

[patent mango]

psyker could sneeze and that would somehow change every single breakpoint

[pale prairie]

okay these player buffs/hp increases on enemies is ridiculous

[jovial juniper]

Calculating psyker bps but you forgot to take in account that water boils at different temperatures depending on pressure

[marble crater]

Look at you censoring all the names

[royal totem]

agh i got so close to taking no damage one whole map as psyker

then it got spoiled near the end

[pale prairie]

Trying to protect futaloveraddict’s privacy

[marble crater]

[marble crater]

[pale prairie]

How it always goes

[zealous wing]

guys i caught another darktide fledgling

i get to walk through uprising and watch the early days happen

[pale prairie]

Tell them to never play auric

Teach them the Smyker ways

[royal totem]

LOL

damn. i never get to play uprising lmao

[kind jay]

i thought permasmiting auric is how you make friends

[maiden oracle]

Can I get a psyker build for havoc

No smite I don’t fw that

[royal totem]

don't forget pair it with scrier's gaze for almost infinite smite

[kind jay]

absolutely

[zealous wing]

GUYS OMG

HE WATCHED ME PUSH BURSTERS LAST ROUND

HE JUST PUSHED IT HIMSELF

im so proud of this random stranger

[royal totem]

omg

growing up fast :3

[marble crater]

Watch it be some alt character of an old player who also wants to see new people play

[royal totem]

LOL

what would it be like going to uprising and pretending i dunno how to play

[zealous wing]

might be, its fun tho either way

no askin for higher diffs tho, and im wearing my havoc chestpiece and budding interrogator tag so

HA asspadding

[thorn cedar]

god i hate that ass

those boots are GORGEOUS but theyre attached to such a dumb butt

[zealous wing]

wear something cloak-y to hide it?

[thorn cedar]

i went the other way

different pants

[zealous wing]

but hey, at least the asspad pants look otherwise good, with a lil silly thrown in

could be this level of dumb

i dont think ANYTHING can pull this off

[thorn cedar]

its how i feel about most of 40k

pieces of neatness, but the full outfit for most things just looks dumb to me

Krieg exempted

[zealous wing]

the purple set, i love... but the headpiece frill thing

what the fuck

i am not paying for a white squiggle 😭

[strong gulch]

Need the big frill. Purple set one is too smol.

[thorn cedar]

300% frill mod

i wont be satiated until my ogryns are blinded by my frill

"CAN'T SEE OVER DOILY, SPARKHEAD!"
"I know, isn't it fabulous, Brute?!"

[strong gulch]

If the air locks close without issue, then not big enough.

[marble crater]

[strong gulch]

Remove fall damage for big frill.

[thorn cedar]

nah u just slow fall like princess peach

[strong gulch]

even better

would make snipers happy tho

[thorn cedar]

Sometimes fashion means sacrifices

[marble crater]

Snipers are overrated, it's all about Plasma Gunners now

Don't you see all the people complaining?

[thorn cedar]

Wish I didn't.

[patent mango]

500 plasma gunners just broke into your house (silently)

[thorn cedar]

Good luck fighting off my cat, idiots.

POV ur dead

[marble crater]

Cute killer machine though

[strong gulch]

I don't read darktide reddit and steam comments.

So no.

[marble crater]

Lucky

[thorn cedar]

theyre everywhere, man

theyre in the goddamn walls

[marble crater]

Maybe it's because I am playing psyker, but I really don't think the plasma gunners are bad

[obsidian kayak]

I gotta try SG + assail I keep seeing psykers demolish with it

does it need warp rending talent?

[marble crater]

Penetration of the soul? No

[obsidian kayak]

pretty cool that assail procs perfect timing

[zealous wing]

its any critical hit

[obsidian kayak]

does smite not crit? Didn’t see that talent working for it

[marble crater]

Does not

[obsidian kayak]

cool thanks good to know

[zealous wing]

same

[marble crater]

Well for you it's because you are a pro gamer

[zealous wing]

but i play psyker

[fierce crest]

havent touched havocs but in aurics vet psyker zealot havent had a problem with them
