psyker-class

[plucky flax]

I was gazing

[summer prairie]

does that include the linger time

depends on the uptime icon i guess

[plucky flax]

No warp unbound I dont think

[exotic tulip]

Sprinting to lower stamina to take advantage of some of the mortis trials blessings.

[strong gulch]

It is. Some extra flavor to it. I know most are liking JaD, but I been seeing multiple people just really not get on with the talent on SG gunker. Idk about bubble. Warp expenditure has been varied in terms of people picking it as well.

[pale prairie]

Warp speed

[plucky flax]

I had a valid crash out tbf.

[exotic tulip]

Theres a 4% crit chance per missing stamina that I got on my fire trauma staff.

[plucky flax]

[strong gulch]

that's flavor

[summer prairie]

I didn't really want to do another either, too late

[pale prairie]

Don’t forget to cuss out the randoms and block them

[ripe obsidian]

Ah, no. I don't think you'll be able to get great use of that on a staff

[thorn cedar]

yea i would not recommend JaD to a new player because it is a scary node, quite simply

[pale prairie]

Goddamn it

[plucky flax]

Wipe at end event.

[pale prairie]

Why would people not stick together on a havoc 40???

[summer prairie]

it was very smooth and coordinated until that

[pale prairie]

So they did have brains

[plucky flax]

It's just the end event of communial.

[pale prairie]

Until they didn’t

[plucky flax]

Need to go to the very side.

To not get flanked.

[strong gulch]

You can quell while sliding.

[pale prairie]

Arbites?

[strong gulch]

charge casts while sliding too

[plucky flax]

I barely used melee. 8mins apparently and still did 559k melee damage according to scoreboard?

Seems high for the little melee I did.

3.51 stacks average unstable though

That's OP

[pale prairie]

Damn. Well if you had all your buffs. Fewer hits but they were big?

[plucky flax]

Yeah must be some really big hits.

[white valley]

I would, trial by fire

[pale prairie]

Tsssk should have had BCoB /s keep those stacks low

[plucky flax]

Xd

[strong gulch]

like how my cousin taught me to swim

[plucky flax]

Oh uptime doesn't show one with the warp buff.

[pale prairie]

According to scoreboard I have had some 14000 damage one shots with FGS so just that multiplied

[plucky flax]

I was wondering what was my tdr average.

[white valley]

Into the fires of battle, unto the anvil of war

[pale prairie]

“Drowned me”

[arctic turret]

I'll be doing h20-30 with randoms and i ask to stay together and take it slow then we wipe when one dude goes down halfway across the map and we need him

[summer prairie]

That's around 1160 dps average with melee

[pale prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/math-confuse-numbers-gif-10041147

[strong gulch]

Shove into the deep end.

"There's a lifeguard."

to the lifeguard "They're ok. I'm teaching them to swim."

[white valley]

Immersion therapy

[strong gulch]

I'm sure that was convincing.

[white valley]

Did it work?

[plucky flax]

It was good round I was kind of keeping up with purg even against 21st.

[pale prairie]

And now potato just loves water

[white valley]

Like, can you swim?

[pale prairie]

Good. Bring EK back

[strong gulch]

I honestly don't think it could fail. I am very buoyant.

So ye.

[plucky flax]

Yeah but my fav (right click) is dead against rot armour.

[zealous wing]

ive missed how fluid melee with psyker is

ive been playing zealot, ogryn, arby last few days

[summer prairie]

There wasn't many instances where enemies stayed alive long being healed so not that much damage farming

[pale prairie]

Most dead bodies are

[zealous wing]

then back to psyker and its just instincts all back for movement

[pale prairie]

That’s why they need cement shoes

[plucky flax]

Maybe surge right click need to do 'warp damage' like trauma nd purg and just bypass the rot armour range reduction.

[zealous wing]

psyker is the best melee class

[strong gulch]

Caught me. Been dead since.

[pale prairie]

That’s my favorite too

[pale prairie]

200% ADM

[white valley]

Honestly rotten armour's ranged damage reduction is a bit lame

[proper spoke]

I only started a melee build with my psyker a few days ago. I was so bad at first, but with some tweaking and practice i feel like a sentient meat blender

[zealous wing]

its so accurate

[ripe obsidian]

Hell, JaD kills me, and I am mostly not a new player

[plucky flax]

Hmm I played that round without bm and was able to pretty much just gaze and unbound all the way. Guess bm not needed to stay in gaze with so many elites and psykenetic aura.

[zealous wing]

i love clearing an area while the others are slow as hell and they just look at me like "we sure thats a psyker?"

[white valley]

JaD is better if you're a Seer

[proper spoke]

The almost constant Scrier’s Gaze uptime feels cool, too

[strong gulch]

Yeah. JaD killed me on EK shriek. I am too reckless.

[white valley]

Loners and Savants die more with JaD

[ripe obsidian]

It's particularly bad with Dregs. Those tox bombs are hell.

[zealous wing]

i dont

but im a gunker

[white valley]

Aye gas is pretty awful

Quietude helps

[marble crater]

Quietude good?

[zealous wing]

it anything JaD made it pretty impossible for me to die when i wanted to (suipsyker)

[proper spoke]

I was having trouble with heavily armoured enemies, but today i tried out a heavy 5-shot revolver (i forgot the name), and its special has solved that issue very well. No skill tree changes needed

[ripe obsidian]

It's less the damage and more that it shoots my peril to max almost instantly. I could sustain through the gas otherwise, but I can't actually shoot

[zealous wing]

revolver

however

FGS

[ripe obsidian]

I'm going to continue my cycle of moving between JaD and OwtW

[white valley]

Aye I quell super low if I am in gas

No point trying to cast at high peril

I quell to like 40% and then cast

But at least with JaD, gas is no longer a psyker death sentence

[ripe obsidian]

I do think JaD is a better talent than OwtW, but the peril gain is so inconvenient sometimes

[white valley]

I just take both

[proper spoke]

I mostly rely on my FGS, but i was still finding it too slow for a few enemies. But 5 rapid fire revolver shots make even monstrosities a breeze

[ripe obsidian]

Hedonistic

[pale prairie]

Heyo me too

[white valley]

Especially because they synergize and even more so with quietude

[pale prairie]

Synergy

[marble crater]

Look at how unique you two are

[plucky flax]

EE abuser

[pale prairie]

Shriek slut says what?

[marble crater]

Was?

[ripe obsidian]

This is my Inferno build. Swapping between JaD and OwtW regularly

[white valley]

But then again I use bubble so I don't have to deal with ranged mfs shooting my peril up as often

[white valley]

Ah I do not run IF

[pale prairie]

Oh hey warp unbound timer how nice

So much left clicking

Makes me sleepy

[ripe obsidian]

IF is one of the reasons I prefer JaD

[plucky flax]

Tru

Extremely bad and memey build.

[pale prairie]

It’s okay. This build is the only thing keeping EK alive in havoc lmao

[plucky flax]

Blame elites buff for killing surge right click.

As well as rot modifier.

[pale prairie]

I do

Everyday I heap curses on the rot armor

[white valley]

They called me a madman for bringing penetrating flames to rotten armour

[plucky flax]

Mad indeed.

[marble crater]

And they are right

[white valley]

It's about the same dps as warp nexus these days from my experience

[pale prairie]

Still crazy

[white valley]

I am a psyker main, crazy is my duty

[pale prairie]

Play selfish

Like every psyker

[white valley]

My calling

Plus it also has great value with stimms

[marble crater]

I don't, sometimes I even stun maulers or crushers that are about to overhead my team from behind

Sometimes

[pale prairie]

Yeah cause your trying to get the kill

And damage farming

[zealous wing]

zealot torso fuckin slaps

[pale prairie]

They just HAPPEN TO BE THERE

[zealous wing]

psyker and zealot get the best drip

[marble crater]

I don't even have a scoreboard mod, I couldn't care less about damage farming

But I do care about kill feed spam

[ripe obsidian]

Tbh I am considering it. I am sick of watching my teams fail to kill armor. Or I need to get better about procing Uncanny

Blue stim enemies are scarier than rotten crushers

[marble crater]

Maybe you need to get better at dealing damage

[ripe obsidian]

I do. I barely hit 3m some games

[marble crater]

I don't know if that is good or not at the moment, playing without scoreboard is so blissful

[strong gulch]

Until recently, zealots got a lot of jammy pants.

[ripe obsidian]

If I don't have scoreboard, I can't self-flagellate if I do poorly

[strong gulch]

idk why

[plucky flax]

Seemed I did a crit mk6 stab on plague ogryn for at least 9.2k damage last round.

[ripe obsidian]

I don't think it does. The stim'd enemies have flat DR that can't be lowered, per Path

[wraith sphinx]

decided to play ogryn for a change, immediately ended up being the anti ranged of the whole team

[marble crater]

Because they didn't deserve anything else

[plucky flax]

Blue stim and 15 stacks dd +20% unstable.

[strong gulch]

PA with force sword and run.

[wraith sphinx]

that was kinda exhausting lol, tap bursting the twin link for 40 minutes

[strong gulch]

I haven't played rotted yet so don't take my advice

[ripe obsidian]

It didn't work!

[strong gulch]

stimm

right

[ripe obsidian]

PA on a blue dreg rager did nothing!

[strong gulch]

1 uncanny stack tho

[ripe obsidian]

I was like, wtf do I do now

[ripe obsidian]

Doesn't help

Blue stim is just DR

Not ADMs

[strong gulch]

ye

I've seen the scary clips

[ripe obsidian]

Blue stim enemies are hell

[wraith sphinx]

yellow stim scab stalkers are pretty terrifying too

it's like they remembered to switch to full auto

[ripe obsidian]

I had a random blue stim mauler emerge from a Pogryn's corpse and destroy me

[pale prairie]

Have you tried PoTs?

[ripe obsidian]

:(

The only stim that isn't terrifying is the red one

[strong gulch]

Oh I was responding to rotted crushers. About uncanny. I responded to the wrong massage. Sorry about that.

I blended posts.

[wraith sphinx]

but that's the scariest one!

red eyes, very evil

[ripe obsidian]

Stims + rotten armor is hectic

I did one of those last night. Nearly won, but I got split from the team by like 3 bombers after the power matrix mid event.

I died, they died, we all died

[thorn cedar]

yaaay death

[wraith sphinx]

FROM LIFE... DEATH...

[thorn cedar]

FIRE, DEATH, RENEWAL

FIRE, DEATH, RENEWAL!!

[pale prairie]

I hate when this happens and all I have is rumbler or kickback

[wraith sphinx]

yea

[pale prairie]

2 arbites and an inferno psyker

Oh hey it’s sniper gauntlet vent purge

Cool

[gray juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-bars-hot-fire-micdrop-gif-17791374

[pale prairie]

[gray juniper]

That reminds me of the time I gave arbutt secret service level coverage from snipers while I’m gun psyking. I went down twice because I’m handling 100% of the snipers and too much up close while he’s speed running someone else’s havoc. “Sykes havoc ain’t for you”

So glad arbites got debuffed even a little

[marble crater]

But my paid class

[wraith sphinx]

classic really

[royal totem]

no. Arbites should have been buffed.

[zealous wing]

i seeeee you

[royal totem]

make dog appply a gamebreaking 50 stacks of bleed -_-

[strong gulch]

I got to level 32. I haven't played it since.

[strong gulch]

Do I have more psykers than my arby's levels? I'll never tell.

[gray juniper]

Everyone using the same build for exploit damage was extra lame too

[marble crater]

You are not a good representation of the player base, Mr 20 psykers

[gray juniper]

Still can’t do proper DD with a dog arbites in the game

[pale prairie]

You don’t like fighting for scraps with the dog?

https://tenor.com/view/dog-food-tug-baby-gif-4075688

[strong gulch]

I need to fix my mod. Game won't let me make more rn.

Overheaded-Today wants to be overheaded in havoc.

[marble crater]

[strong gulch]

WAIT. When do we get access to havocs?

[ripe obsidian]

Arby with Agri shotgun is one of the best snipers in the game

I learned that from Ainz

[strong gulch]

Can I level up in havocs? Just do baby ones??

[marble crater]

After maelstrom

[strong gulch]

sad

[marble crater]

Not sad, good

We need to keep you out

[strong gulch]

😭

[gray juniper]

No and I realized some people have buffs going on where I can’t beat the dog for damage to take the kill

[pale prairie]

They both had shot pistol with shield. Weren’t sniping the snipers though

[gray juniper]

Shield arbites is a weak sign

[marble crater]

Shield and shield Arbites is fun

[gray juniper]

If they’re not using the shotgun it’s not a good sign

It’s fun but not as effective definitely

You get more ammo and kill effectiveness with the shotty vs the pistol, both bolt guns or the revolver

[thorn cedar]

nah

i love the maul and shield, like, a lot a lot

[gray juniper]

That’s all you big dawg

[thorn cedar]

but without a doubt, strongest arby set up is shistol with almost any other weapon

[gray juniper]

Oh no I disagree here

[thorn cedar]

its his best sniping weapon, believe it or not

[wind wind]

The one thing shield pistol is good at...

[thorn cedar]

and it still has all the utilities of a shield to boot

[gray juniper]

Shit-stol

[pale prairie]

I cried while dodge sliding

[gray juniper]

A case of “didn’t understand the assignment”

[wind wind]

Love it when the vet with the long gun doesnt snipe the long ranged threats 💀

Recently had a Marksmans focus Exe stance vet with hellbore die to a sniper 4 times in a row.... He then ragequit while bitching that he hadnt played in a while 😂

[wind wind]

I wouldve too

[gray juniper]

That’s cool though. When long range users won’t do their job I’ll just waltz and tango along the edge of the map until I’m in inferno distance

[royal totem]

triple zealot lmao

[pale prairie]

Helbore but only focusing melee elites lmao

[royal totem]

i was like "why are no specials or such dying"

[gray juniper]

“I’m the main character”

[ripe obsidian]

Pain.

[wind wind]

He refused to use his melee against melee trash... Was constantly downed by trash infantry and ragers.... 💀

[wind wind]

I love the pistol zealots who use revolver to snipe ranged threats.

They seem to be rare tho

[gray juniper]

Probably not a zealot main tbh

[ripe obsidian]

In non-Darktide news, I have grown my chess ELO from a wretched 500 to a slightly less wretched 570. I am pleased with myself. Note that I just started playing, so I am a beginner

[thorn cedar]

I’ve been hit with this one before

[wind wind]

Bru in what world lmao....

Although, depends on loadout.

Voidstrike/gunker, sure.... But flame.... melee... Smyker...

Yeah, no

[gray juniper]

Lmao no sir. How

[marble crater]

They are great

[pale prairie]

“Voidstrike is the most OP staff”
Reddit the other day

What else is he supposed to do? Buy the groceries, change the diapers, mow the lawn?

[pale prairie]

Wipe his ass

[kind jay]

and fix the plumbing too

[gray juniper]

Probably best to be real but not OP fuck Reddit

[pale prairie]

I think they were trying to say best honestly

[gray juniper]

These poor brain rotted kids

[ripe obsidian]

Wait really

[wind wind]

Flame - blast - Strike - force. From best to worst.

At least for me

[ripe obsidian]

Flame > Blast > EK >>> Voidstrike. I still use Voidstrike in like 95% of my non-Havoc games

[gray juniper]

It feels so bad since all the scabs got their HP buffs. Impossible to kill anything.

Fix EK's crit scaling.

What's wrong with it?

[wind wind]

Yes, but i had great fun knocking plasma gunners on their ass.... Albeit that the rest of my team had to do the actually killing

[ripe obsidian]

https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/incorrect-finesse-multiplier-on-electrokinetic-staff/112098

[wind wind]

Bruh what scaling? Ive been more successful in finding love than critting with this staff and ive been single for over 15 years

[ripe obsidian]

TL;DR, they copied Smite or something and put the crit scaling in the wrong spot

[thorn cedar]

feel like this quote is in my head several times a day

[ripe obsidian]

So it doesn't scale on finesse at all

[ripe obsidian]

I just Shrieked and stole all their soulblaze. All kills become my kills.

[wind wind]

Lmao

[pale prairie]

I don't build for crit, I build for sustained unrelenting hits.

If I shoot 10 times as many shots, I'm going to eventually Crit.

Double Hit on Crit and Warp Flurry to spam full charges quicker.

Sometimes I put blazing spirit instead of double hit so there's tons of extra soul fires.

Voidstrike specifically allows the secondary to double Hit on Crit.

Brain Burst.

Psychic Shout or Shield Bubble.

Empowered Psionics.

I run the talents that lower peril generation. So I can spam virtually non stop, drop the scream and keep shooting.

I use the one that takes away 80% of your passive peril quell and gives you better toughness Regen.

Along side the one that lowers your peril generation and lowers your toughness Regen,

the toughness changes kind of cancel out mostly but make your peril not raise very much, and you have to manually quell it.

Were talking like only receiving 10-12% peril a shot..

I use hastened brain Burst spam on bosses after I've built up charges on the trash. Shout+ Empowered Psionics is almost instant brain Burst.

[ripe obsidian]

Working customer service will do that, yeah. I was in retail/customer service for 12+ years before I got into IT

[marble crater]

Me when EK gets fixed

[ripe obsidian]

I don't crit, I just use crit blessings. Wtf.

[pale prairie]

Lmao

[wind wind]

Accuracy by volume

Did you by any chance serve in the united states armed forces?

[pale prairie]

Yeah that’s the original commenter in the pictures

[pale prairie]

They literally just need to move one line of code into some brackets. It's a 10 second copy+paste.

Expect it in the next 5-10 buisness years 💀

[pale prairie]

We fixed EK crit but now psyker crashes the game

[wind wind]

Eh, what doesnt crash the game these days....

[elfin mortar]

Why are crits good on the inferno staff?

[marble crater]

They apply two stacks of soulblaze instead of one

[plucky flax]

What's going on here?

[pale prairie]

Just Reddit nonsense

[marble crater]

Which also means you can go over the soulblaze cap from inferno if you crit at the end before reaching it

[pale prairie]

Copy and pasted a guys reasoning for Voidstrike being “the best one”

[plucky flax]

Is tru I only see voidstrike in havoc.

Literally best staff.

[pale prairie]

Yeah that’s why your LMB spam ek is meme

[royal totem]

that was ..........a game

[zealous wing]

i forgot you do auric now

i was like, oh ok ill do a warm up with zealot with you

[pale prairie]

I only get accepted into havoc teams if I have voidstrike on. I have to switch it last minute to inferno like some kind of rumbler Ogryn

[zealous wing]

well

[royal totem]

i wouldn't have gone zealot if i knew you were gonna be zealot LMAO

[zealous wing]

it was SOME KIND OF WARM UP

That shit was SPICY

[plucky flax]

Tru I find this too.

[royal totem]

honestly wouldn't have been if we didn't have triple stack zealot lmao

[zealous wing]

i mean we did do ok

[plucky flax]

I play left click voidstrike.

[zealous wing]

i wouldve gone psyker or YOLO'd arby

[plucky flax]

I heard it's more op.

[royal totem]

that death was just unfortunate

[strong gulch]

I did a mil damage in auric either yesterday or the day before. They can def be spicy.

[pale prairie]

More grapes = more better

[royal totem]

like i was driven mad by tox gas running around

[zealous wing]

that was literally the first auric ive done with my zealot LMAO

[pale prairie]

Yeah the maelstroms/aurics are spicy now

[zealous wing]

i didnt actually die, so thats good

the wounds helped

[royal totem]

my wound didn't save me

[zealous wing]

my zeals a marty

so i got wounds for days

[royal totem]

i was down but nobody could reach me

so either way was dead lmao

[zealous wing]

imma need a breath after that one lmao

like a minute or two

[royal totem]

that game everything was either on fire or tox gas

[zealous wing]

do i at least look cool

or was it hard to see through all the fucking bombers and tox flamers

[royal totem]

you think i have tox vision? LMAO

[zealous wing]

i turned scoreboard off so i have literally no idea how well we did

[royal totem]

i have no clue either. i was just running around stabbing things

[zealous wing]

but i used scoreboard enough to know when i do well vs when i do poorly

i think it went well

i saw a lot of things bleeding

[royal totem]

if i used my flamer more we would've had a better time LOL

[zealous wing]

might go psyker this time

or maybe arby

[royal totem]

do it xD

i'm just trying to give myself some more time on vet and zealot today really

[zealous wing]

im curious how shit my arby build is, but i know my psyker build is peak, regardless of what the people here say

[royal totem]

lmao what is your arby build?

[zealous wing]

randombullshitthatlooksfun

im using both shield weapons so its not ideal

but yeah, that's my vet. as you can see it's my worst class xD

[zealous wing]

i dunno, you did well enough

[royal totem]

sometimes the game hates me and won't let me type in game chat

[zealous wing]

most of that run was "how am i not dead"

[royal totem]

cuz you're an arb xD

[zealous wing]

yeah because of this, with the crusher orgy that piled on me

[royal totem]

i really thought i'd die when i got seperated off from the rest of the time by a mob

i DID try to throw krak grenades for you

[zealous wing]

IT WORKED

[hallow finch]

Thoughts?

[zealous wing]

it didnt kill all of them but it got them off my ass enough to throw my own

[royal totem]

sometimes just need to give the crushers some...... "Sticky Surprises"

[zealous wing]

[royal totem]

~~actually mine is Cadian so mine just says Krak out. ~~

[thorn cedar]

well, im sure six feels very validated right now

[zealous wing]

tree looks good

sword.... uh

needs work

[royal totem]

i want to play some more vet sometime so i can bring it in havoc

[thorn cedar]

precog is a bit of a stinker

[hallow finch]

Sure, im listening

[thorn cedar]

too short a duration, attacks take forever to come out

on the greatsword anyway

[zealous wing]

you want warp resistance as the dump stat, for starters, if you can get your hands on one

[thorn cedar]

and your dodges are way too valuable to be spending on a hypothetical damage bonus when theyre as poor as they are on FGS

[zealous wing]

flak unyielding looks fine, if youre using it against bulwarks and monstrosities instead of a gun

itll handly fine whether its flak maniac or unyeilding, so those are genuinely fine

the general main blessing for FGS is unstable power, then something else, like wrath, or deflector, depending on playstyle

it is usable in this state ofc but its not gonna handle the best

and, besides, most people pass up on unstable power because it lies to us

it says up to 5% strength, but that stacks per 20% peril

so at 20 peril you have + 5 strength, 40 you have +10, etc

[royal totem]

Excuse me hexis

Youre implying fatshark lies!

It would never lie to us! /sarcasm

[zealous wing]

clears throat

they lie

a lot

fun fact, warp unbound isnt 10 seconds of unlimited casting

its 11 o.o

[royal totem]

Wait whatttt

[zealous wing]

technically i think its 11 point something

[thorn cedar]

11.5

[zealous wing]

ye

[sage plaza]

Quick question: does Surge provide +5% ranged crit chance on all ranged attack, secondary attacks included?

[marble crater]

It should

*not accounting for bugs

[royal totem]

Remember everybody

Darktide is a game with 0 bugs

[zealous wing]

just like crystalline will will save your ass if you kill an elite with the explosion

and dont ever shriek or use SG to save yourself from overload

[marble crater]

CW will give you a wound when it shouldn't and not give you a wound when it should, so they cancel each other out

[zealous wing]

i'd say they dont

[marble crater]

They do, 0 bugs, best talent

[zealous wing]

being able to cast unlimited for free the entire match is way stronger

turns the mission into a mortis trial with that kind of boon

[royal totem]

I keep playing veteran like i have EE

[zealous wing]

lol

[royal totem]

dives at a reaper

Crits will keep me alive!

[zealous wing]

i do that too, but im better at dodging

[royal totem]

downs

[zealous wing]

AYO

[ripe obsidian]

I had a really good veteran last night. Nearly kept up with me in damage. Had like 1m when I had 1.5m everyone else was sub-500k

[zealous wing]

i didnt see this before

arby is more cracked than i thought

[ripe obsidian]

Arby isn't even that strong comparatively anymore

[thorn cedar]

Arby is rock fucking solid is what they are.

[zealous wing]

their DD is better than ours :(

[ripe obsidian]

I think it's Psyker > Vet > Ogryn > Zealot = Arby

[thorn cedar]

Not a lot of up and down, just one gradient of "I'm here to fist-fuck Lexbreakers"

[marble crater]

Nerf psyker?

[zealous wing]

i mean

nemui

[ripe obsidian]

Psyker is so good right now

[thorn cedar]

and nah ours is miles ahead

[zealous wing]

how many times did i go down last auric HISTG

vs the one before it as zealot

[ripe obsidian]

4

[royal totem]

0 i think? Or was it 1

Might've been 1

[zealous wing]

0

[strong gulch]

What are all of the ways we've been buffed this patch?

[thorn cedar]

there isnt a class in the game besides Ogryn who wouldnt take DD as a replacement to one of their best keystones

[zealous wing]

as a zealot, i have 6 wounds, went down at least 8 times

[marble crater]

All I remember is a PA nerf

[royal totem]

Btw that other vet was kinda pepega

[zealous wing]

ive used zealot more than arby

the other vet was very low lvl

around ours

but possibly only 1st or 2nd character tbh

[thorn cedar]

The only actual nerf we got was the loss of +10% max HP

[zealous wing]

they seemed more confused than just bad

[royal totem]

All that matters is theres no Unfortunate for Some

[strong gulch]

Unlucky for Some 😭

[zealous wing]

😭

[thorn cedar]

gone but also very forgotten

[royal totem]

Fair xD

[strong gulch]

All of my Unlucky for Some memery made some people (or maybe 1 person) think that I thought it was an actually good talents.

[vernal temple]

bruh, joined a havoc 40 team and was asked to use a smite+scrier's build, since there was a 2nd psyker running purga+bubble. Felt like a complete idiot constantly holding down smite while everyone else did all the work

[zealous wing]

lmao

[thorn cedar]

thats cuz ur fake, unlike me and MiM

[zealous wing]

gross

next time, genuinely, ignore them

run what you wanna

[vernal temple]

I know. And we failed 3 times in a row and called it a day. Serves me right

[zealous wing]

if they want a smyker, THEY can be the smyker

let me guess

they blamed you for not smiting enough?

[thorn cedar]

i would not ignore, i would just go for a different lobby

[hallow finch]

Was told to dump def

[thorn cedar]

that they are asking for a smyker is a very bad sign already

[vernal temple]

nah, everyone was friendly, just after the 3rd attepmt left one by one

[zealous wing]

by who

ah thats good at least

[zealous wing]

who

[strong gulch]

who was saying to dump defense??

noooo 😭

[vernal temple]

the modifiers were rotten armor + encroaching garden. we kinda did fine on the 2nd attempt and reached 2/3 of the map with nobody even going down

but then shit the bed

[strong gulch]

FGS doesn't have a mobility stat and high WR can be detrimental.

Don't dump DEF on it.

[ripe obsidian]

Rotten Armor + Purple is a little rough if you don't have good carapace killers.

Rotten armor + corrupted stims is absurd

I think Path said some enemies actually hit 100% damage resist

[royal totem]

It wasnt. But the name was so good.

[zealous wing]

i found them

shame

for shame

[vernal temple]

that's mental

[zealous wing]

probably not actually the same but

shame

[royal totem]

How dafaq do you kill 100% DR enemies

[ripe obsidian]

Yeah, I was getting hounded by stim'd up rotten maulers and ragers. It was spooky

[vernal temple]

Bleed?

[royal totem]

Guess? But still obscene

[zealous wing]

trust us, you dump warp resistance on everything psyker

[vernal temple]

the modifiers this time around are not joking around

me: alright, ready to brave H40 again

me 10 minutes later: damn, H40 got hands

I feel like today's Havoc is way more difficult, than it was when first introduced

[zealous wing]

well

crushers do have like 10k hp in havoc by default now

[vernal temple]

I got TS on week 3 back in December or something. No way I would get that today.

Shit's scary

[hearty wolf]

Surely after a few months break i can just do it stone cold

[strong gulch]

surely

honestly tho

I think after a couple rounds you'll be ship shape

[hearty wolf]

hm

Have I been reset or whatever

[strong gulch]

yup

[white valley]

Everyone has been reset

[hearty wolf]

to 30?

[strong gulch]

yup

[white valley]

Aye

[hearty wolf]

oh

since I uinstalled

where my mods

[strong gulch]

builds reset and new season for havoc so 30

[white valley]

And this season is bruuuutal

[hearty wolf]

I'm sure it will be easy

[white valley]

Despite increased player damage, elites are tougher and this season's modifiers are insane

[hearty wolf]

what does it mean

[strong gulch]

Probably have to update frame work or something like that

there have been big mod updates

mod loader update

that was the big one

[zealous wing]

im fuckin broke

😭

fuck brunts casino

[vernal temple]

I'd love to share if it was possible

[zealous wing]

hey look an all 76

they do exist

[strong gulch]

yes

[hearty wolf]

is

not

working

:(

I think I may have figured it out

I think it's because I installed it on a different drive

[hallow finch]

Cant remember now
Should I use true aim if I don't use gun all that much? Sure i use it for gunners and snipers but other than that not really

[thorn cedar]

true aim i think is relegated to automatics nowadays

[hallow finch]

That dont tell me much

[thorn cedar]

KD is a more universally applicable pick if its a question of pathing for DD

otherwise you dont have to take it

cause yeah i use gun a lot, but i dont take it cause my gun is laspistol

but on a recon or an infantry autogun its pretty juicy

[strong gulch]

True aim is good for assail and gun, but it is droppable if you're really focus on melee.

True aim is quite nice for a guaranteed crit for a known EE proc if you start an engagement with shooters with your gun or assail.

[thorn cedar]

crits chain on automatics and those critted shots still stack up true aim and all of this helps keep your uptime on Empathic Evasion high

not sold on it for assail nowadays tbh, now that you arent pathing into it by default to reach DD

[hallow finch]

What should I replace it with?

[celest valve]

this is a good form of lying to you because otherwise people would cast at the end of 10 seconds, explode, and be angry :p

[thorn cedar]

id recommend Warp Speed in the middle of Scriers Gaze

cause it is very fun

[celest valve]

it's the same reason why scrier's gaze had an unmentioned like 1.5ish second grace time at the end where you got the benefit of warp unbound effectively without mentioning it

[strong gulch]

Don't have to path into, ye.

But if you're doing a mix of attack types, true aim is nice. Starting things off with an EE proc is pretty good.

[celest valve]

so you don't instantly explode if you cast stuff during scrier's gaze and it ends

[hearty wolf]

it's been uninstalling for like 10m

[thorn cedar]

it just feels exceedingly whatever when my crit chance is almost 80% already

[hallow finch]

What about crack a bone

[celest valve]

(like it should in fact be impossible to explode from peril during scrier's gaze)

[ripe obsidian]

@buoyant maple how do you, indeed?

[thorn cedar]

also very good

[hearty wolf]

rock

rock kills 100% dr

[strong gulch]

kill = true

[thorn cedar]

ledges

[celest valve]

anyway point is that written durations should be slightly shorter than they actually are when this benefits the player :p

[buoyant maple]

Instakill override

[ripe obsidian]

Contaminated stims are like every other modifier combined. Rotten armor is mostly a DPS and build check. If you don't have at least 2 people who can clear crushers, it'll suck

[buoyant maple]

Otherwise they can’t die

[ripe obsidian]

What fun.

[buoyant maple]

There’re only 3 enemies that can be fully invulnerable

[ripe obsidian]

That feels like a mistake.

[steel flame]

Fuck crushers

[buoyant maple]

Dreg stalker, Dreg rager, bulwark

[hallow finch]

Crystalline will? Or useless because of the ability

[buoyant maple]

Of which, the first 2 can be instakilled

[thorn cedar]

super fucken buggy and dont recommend yea

[hallow finch]

Bet

[steel flame]

Crushers should be exempt from stimms and rotten armor dr

[hallow finch]

Crack a bone it is

[buoyant maple]

Who knows

[steel flame]

Or

Crushers should be able to friendly fire with overheads

[hallow finch]

Okay last thing, what defences do for the fgs?

[steel flame]

Dodge distance

Don't bother

[thorn cedar]

dodge distance, sprint cost, block cost efficiency, push cost

[ripe obsidian]

Honestly, most of the stimms are just annoying. "lmao the enemy now has 80% damage reduction" or "lmao it has double hp now"

[hallow finch]

@zealous wing

[zealous wing]

ah that guy

ignore him

[hallow finch]

So basically mobility

[thorn cedar]

kinda

[zealous wing]

yeah, basically

[hallow finch]

Aint you supposed to dump mob in every other scenario

[zealous wing]

not on warp weapons

[thorn cedar]

yeah but warp is an even easier thing to dump

[zealous wing]

you WANT peril

[steel flame]

I meant, don't bother dumping defences, dump peril

[thorn cedar]

also people who default dump mobility suck, and they cant tell me otherwise because im too fast to catch IDIOTS

[hallow finch]

Warp res?

[steel flame]

Yes

[zealous wing]

me when i dumped ammo on vraks

[ripe obsidian]

Except on Voidstrike. Dump blast radius.

[zealous wing]

not to be confused with voidBLAST

[steel flame]

Dump Crit on electro staff

[hallow finch]

Ight then

[steel flame]

You lose 2.5 ish crit chance between 60 and 80 crit on electro staff

[thorn cedar]

and crit damage scaling

you dont wanna dump that

[steel flame]

Negligible

[thorn cedar]

its a compounding factor

think of DD

normally id actually agree

but that 20% or whatever you are giving up ends up being a loooooot

[zealous wing]

EKs entire schtick is crits

isnt it?

[steel flame]

Yep

[thorn cedar]

just about

[zealous wing]

thats like, the BIG ek thing

[steel flame]

Crit stat scales like ass

[zealous wing]

ah yes make EK suffer more

yeah but you perma smite so you dont care about crits

[ripe obsidian]

There is zero reason to dump crit over warp res

[steel flame]

Trust me I used to be on the don't dump crit camp

[steel flame]

Better sustained DPS on m1

[zealous wing]

the whole point of the m1 spam ... is crit

the crit is what gives it high damage

the crit is what benefits a ton of talents

[steel flame]

Yeah and go look at the crit stat scaling in game

You are losing single digits between 60 and 80

[zealous wing]

ill wait for the nerd to do it

[marble crater]

I had to clutch and kill 10 snipers, BB good

[zealous wing]

even if so, how is dumping crit better than dumping warp resistance, aka, instant bigger damage just by using the thing

[steel flame]

Fine, then dump quell speed on lmb spam

Crit damage increases stack like ass in fast shark games

[marble crater]

Why wouldn't you just dump charge rate on a lmb spam staff

[zealous wing]

im convinced this guy knows nothing about it

dump crit, dump quell,

not, yknow, something that makes sense

dump the thing that gives you more overall damage
dump the thing that lets you get back to damaging faster

[radiant frigate]

should dump damage on every weapon

kinda wanna see a 0% damage knife with a bleed blessing and uncanny

no direct damage just bleed

[marble crater]

@pale prairie help,I'm addicted to kill feed spam

[marble crater]

Blazing force sword viable when?

[strong gulch]

I think I did this when brunt and hadron kept fucking me.

[pale prairie]

It’s the best. Just RMB is harder to use now

[marble crater]

Elite damage helps with making it feel better

[strong gulch]

EK bad

[marble crater]

Buff EK

[strong gulch]

What was actually bad was blowing up multiple times because I didn't adapt to JaD.

[marble crater]

Definitely isn't the reason I'm not using it

Part 2: The Great Escape and Breaking BoN's ankles

I should just record my entire game in 30 one minute clips

[strong gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/live-slug-reaction-gif-25051024

bon just wants a snack

[steel flame]

Not my fault you can't be bothered to go look at the numbers

[zealous wing]

you just have yet to explain WHY dumping a stat giving you more damage, is favourable to dumping a stat that would, as a result of dumping it, give you more damage

keep warp resist 80, crit at 60? why.

why would i bother looking at numbers that will inevitably mean, more damage

[steel flame]

I already told you, you just didn't read. The scaling is so negligible between 60 and 80 that there is no reason to not dump it

[zealous wing]

doesnt matter how small you think it is

there is a reason

[thorn cedar]

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxOS-ghzSDSwW-ZKzSZjwPAk_K1xUWlrlK?si=WytcSOqRDBAn4Vqr
lmao, this ragdoll in the clip

[zealous wing]

more peril generation from dumping warp res

[marble crater]

Realism

[zealous wing]

hence, why i am sure you dont know what youre talking about

you cant fathom peril generation resulting in more damage for some reason

[steel flame]

Think what you want. I can't be bothered to take the time to find the numbers since I'm sure it won't change your mind

If I was at home maybe

[zealous wing]

no, it wont. more damage is more damage, why dump a stat that will result in lower damage, in two ways

so far your only reason is, because crit stat does nothing of note

while warp resistance dump, allows you to increase your peril to desireable levels faster

one is far more useful to dump than the other

[strong gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/dancing-ballerina-ballet-spin-jump-gif-17128778

[thorn cedar]

i waaaaaant it

gimme da battlebields

[steel flame]

You gain a wopping 2 crit damage from 60 to 80, happy?

[zealous wing]

with my easy peril generation? yes

because, thats an easy +10-20% damage

in a mere cast or two

[cold ivy]

outside havoc i'm pretty sure warp resist dump is ideal because quelling is basically instant

so if you're on low difficulty you should just go for the easy damage

[zealous wing]

warp resist is appealing everywhere

in higher havocs you can get your shrieking to like every 6s or so, so its even less of an issue

there's a reason people hunt for the lowest warp resist stat possible with everything else at 80

[steel flame]

Might come as a shock but there are ek builds that want high peril resist, and so you dump crit

And thus you dump 2 crit damage and 2.5% crit chance for more peril resist

[weary crane]

Warp unbound

[proper rapids]

Does anyone have a clip of the Crucian vowguard? want to know what the voice sounds like since my game isnt letting me preview voices

[steel flame]

I mean yeah but you get more damage before you proc that

[gray juniper]

I hear people make long well written data driven arguments here all the time and still don’t follow it

[celest valve]

warp is always always dump because your peril is fake and isn't a limit

and you want to keep it maxed usually

[hallow finch]

What should i dump on autopistol?

[celest valve]

literally it is to the point where on the force greatsword, it is advantageous to have down to 0% warp resistance

[celest valve]

uhhhh i just look at the veteran guide to be honest >.>

maybe collateral tho?

[hallow finch]

Stopping power?

[steel flame]

Well yeah. I have a 22% warp res great sword for a reason, 50% peril per activation is a powerful thing. But fgs ≠ ek staff in all cases. Edging scriers with ek is higher damage than simply triggering warp unbound immediately.

[celest valve]

i mean there's usually quell speed too

[weary crane]

The whole gun

[steel flame]

I did say that to Mr hexis too

[proper rapids]

Does anyone have the Crucian Vowguard? What does the voice sound like

[steel flame]

Back when auto pistol had incredible stagger and pinning fire wasn't ass I'd would have said mobility. But they nerfed pinning fire and autopistols stagger into the fucking dirt in the exact same patch, completely removing any niche it had

It's just kinda a worse infantry autogun now that has built in run and gun while aiming.....

[zealous wing]

pretty much the same as a rebreather iirc

[steel flame]

So probably dump collateral is the goto. You can't stagger anything you want with 80 collateral anyway

[proper rapids]

No clue how rebreather sounds cause cant preview voices

[zealous wing]

the way i check how they sound is go into character cosmetic selection, select the unpurchased one youre curious about, click purchase, then press E, then it works

[celest valve]

i mean you can, but just like... anything that can be staggered

which is mostly ranged units and the basic mob enemies that aren't infected

[weary crane]

Stopping power increases damage

[zealous wing]

going straight from the commodores doesnt work most the time, but from the character customisation, it works pretty much all the time

[proper rapids]

Thats what ive been trying and my character doesnt speak ive reopened the game several times

[steel flame]

Fuck

[zealous wing]

odd what character personality do you have

[steel flame]

I meant collateral, fuck

[cosmic cobalt]

schizophrenic

[steel flame]

U right

[pale prairie]

@plucky flax how you play Darktide

[marble crater]

I love disarming an entire bridge worth of traps in BG3, it's so much fun to roll 10 die in a row

[pale prairie]

Easy solution. Just run an NPC you don’t care about through and just revive them after

[zealous wing]

ive thought of a better simplification

simpletons, beloved, associates

because i remembered f loner isnt german

[strong gulch]

Oh nooooo. I wanting a vid and someone is saying bro a lot.

That's gonna make me say bro a lot too.

I turn off videos that say bro a lot

[zealous wing]

could be worse

[marble crater]

[pale prairie]

You’ll still revive them!

[steel flame]

In other news i want to stone the person that made collateral the name of the stagger stat instead of a ranged cleave stat

[marble crater]

But I don't want to watch them die, maybe for my evil playthrough Astarion can disarm the traps by walking through them then, for all the snark he gives me

Thank u

[zealous wing]

time to delete

only have one slot available, sorry beans, but if i make another psyker it'll be a seer

might delete my 2nd psyker tbh, i dont need a 2nd m loner anymore since campagin is replayable now

then i can have both seers

[strong gulch]

seer

[thorn cedar]

... why multiples

questionmark

[marble crater]

Why delete? Just change the personality

[crystal pond]

usually people do this because they like one class and want more weeklies

[strong gulch]

At first it was because you couldn't change your character and materials weren't shared. Then it became more builds because no loadouts and melk farming. Then it just became funny.

[marble crater]

Hold Monster is OP

[zealous wing]

am broke

besides, i like the level up process

it lets me get away with dumb shit guilt free

[cosmic cobalt]

it's 50k

literally a single maelstrom

[marble crater]

It costs like 2 aurics

[cosmic cobalt]

😭

[marble crater]

Actually unhinged

[cosmic cobalt]

he like losing everything

[zealous wing]

not really losing much

[cosmic cobalt]

time

[steel flame]

All those poor poor bg3 bosses when I can roll a 2 and still succeed on hold monster

[zealous wing]

not really that either

its just a day

my arby is already lvl 35

[cosmic cobalt]

yeah I can't relate

[steel flame]

Leveling up in another game maybe, but not darktide

[zealous wing]

nah leveling in darktide is quick, in other games its a fucking slog

though, zealot, and ogryn, fucking horrible

never making a 2nd of either

vet, was the first, and that was when sedition was around, so, no fuckin idea

[steel flame]

Granted, leveling arby was slightly less shit than leveling base game classes.......but not by much

[zealous wing]

i dunno, it was fine

[cosmic cobalt]

arby is the easiest to level up due to good baseline

[steel flame]

But I love leveling in bl2

[cosmic cobalt]

you have asm and exaction

[zealous wing]

to be fair as arby you start out as an actual soldier instead of an escaped prisoner using a latrine shovel to decapitate heretics

(such as vet was)

[royal totem]

i........am not having any trouble leveling my 2nd psyker

[cosmic cobalt]

yeah except it boring as shit playing everything over again

[zealous wing]

ye once you know how psyker works, its not much different

[zealous wing]

you do that anyway tho

[cosmic cobalt]

especially psyker which is like

doesn't get good until you get to bottom of the tree

[zealous wing]

i loved psyker before i even got far past the abilities

before i came to the discord, i didnt use keystones

didnt need to, was having fun, until i realised there was an issue, and probably not just skill, so, i came here

[strong gulch]

Just roll a trauma staff early and completely forget how to play because you don't have ER and blow up right away... then keep doing it.

[zealous wing]

then i got dragged to auric maelstrom

what a day that was

i did learn tho

that a level one psyker?

not ideal for auric

level 4 was ... doable, because, i had illisi

still not ideal, but, an actual functional weapon, rather than a blocking device that sadly is dclaw

makes me understand the appeal of trying to run higher difficulties with profane weaponry

[marble crater]

Sounds familiar

[gray juniper]

Good ol Dom

[royal totem]

Auric feels so hard now 🙁 i keep losing

[thorn cedar]

deffo got tougher

[fickle nacelle]

SINCE WHEN HAS PSYKER HAD A SPECIAL MELEE WITH THE HEAVY LASPISTOL

[royal totem]

or maybe my teammates just bad hmmm........

nah has to be me that's bad

[white valley]

years

[strong gulch]

If you mean force push, always.

[thorn cedar]

it go thwoomp

[strong gulch]

It's slow tho

[zealous wing]

very slow

[thorn cedar]

but it can reach out and touch

[fickle nacelle]

IVE PLAYED THIS GAME FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW AND IVE NEVER KNOWN THIS

[zealous wing]

ye its got an extra 2m compared to a force melee

[fickle nacelle]

I guess I've just never used the Laspistol on psyker

[zealous wing]

but by the time the force push acitvates with laspistol you'd be better off pushing with a knife

its good for peril maintaining though i imagine

[fickle nacelle]

Iirc it adds like 8%?

[zealous wing]

idk i'd have to switch characters and go to psykanium

something like that tho

[royal totem]

what is hexis playing anyways? 😮

[zealous wing]

wdym

[white valley]

It's easily one of the best guns for gunker/meleeker as well

Laspistol's insane finesse means scrier's gaze and disrupt destiny scale it sky high

[patent mango]

funny pistol goes brrr

[gray juniper]

Bro my vet is still in damnation purgatory 😭 lol

The real question is who’s watching scawwy movies for this Halloween run up?

[zealous wing]

is that a mild beg for auric carries

nemui needs vet practice too

and probably so do i

we could always find a time to private squad oops all vets

[royal totem]

oh god, quadra vet lmao

[zealous wing]

well technically yes

though the bots are all level 1

[royal totem]

was curious what class you were playing lmao

[zealous wing]

arby atm

grinding the mastery stuff

[royal totem]

i just finished practicing arb

[gray juniper]

Man I hope so 😂 I swear i graduated him but maybe I didn’t

[zealous wing]

ive got the arby shock maul ready for carapace for havoc, if my berpsyker doesnt do well / if we get a horrible mix of rotten +

though i feel like it might be an either or, like if theres a poxgas modifier, arby with rebreather might be good as a backup plan

do wanna try to do it all with psyker though

he looks cool now

mega edgelord psyker

[gray juniper]

Psyker can hold up pretty well in rotten armor occasions

[zealous wing]

perfect loner

ye the main concern tho is hes gunker

[gray juniper]

If you throw one or two corruption resistance on your curios psyker holds up pretty well in pox gas havocs too

[zealous wing]

i can duel 4 crushers, more than that gets tricky depending on environment

[gray juniper]

Lost havoc 22 because I’m out of practice of the game. New player ogryn kept going down along with other guy. Me and zealot every match and triple teamed by twins and bon again and again. I forget how to handle this

[zealous wing]

oof

well, im at h21, nemui is at h20, so any way about it its not a huge leap for any

[gray juniper]

Man I straight flubbed up. But it also doesn’t help that they separated voluntarily every match. Idk why they allowed that

Nah we played over the number of matches and got pushed down to 19 lol

Me and zealot couldn’t carry after all

[zealous wing]

oof'

well

[gray juniper]

Ngl I’m gonna end up getting heavy into arma and becoming more booty at tide

[zealous wing]

specifically stuff like hunting grounds makes me want the dog
nothings worse than a dog team wipe

[thorn cedar]

looks fun

[white sky]

Seems like a great havoc to join someone else's lobby to not do

[thorn cedar]

dogs are just little perilous combustion presents that dont know theyre actually my ally

[gray juniper]

That’s actually pretty decent. This guy had stims, rotten and 21

[zealous wing]

yikes

[marble crater]

One shriek will take care of those dogs

[gray juniper]

Hex hunting grounds is hackable tho

Yea that’s one option

You can find a sweet choke point and melee like crazy

[zealous wing]

well yeah hunting grounds itself is easy

that makes team wipes from it all the worse

[gray juniper]

If they get around you in the open; just force push non stop

[zealous wing]

assail my beloved, narrow hallway my beloved

[gray juniper]

I haven’t been downed by the dog spam in a long time

At least that’s one trick I have down in this game

If I can work twins and chaos spawn/BoN together I’ll be in top shape

[zealous wing]

well, all i know is, if its twins and BoN, melee twin is still priority because BoN is slow, but, between melee twin and CS, i'd fuckin flounder, while also avoiding ranged twin

just sounds like a clusterfuck

[gray juniper]

Tbh the ranged one is always worse imo. Everyone disagrees but I believe it causes more problems overall compared to the dipshit that constantly chases you but you just have to dodge and knock the shield out

Those gas mines are a bitch

[zealous wing]

main issue with melee is, she wont leave you alone, or give you much time to breathe/kill something else

[thorn cedar]

raaaah gimme battlefield already
