Doing campaign but I can do random missions as well
ive also got campaign
I will busy carrying some things in the house in a minute tho so don’t expect a invite yet 
hehehehehhehe
Warp Ghost is less effective than any single toughness regen skill, I believe. It's still very good, but not solely for that. Also, Warp Ghost is not ideal on Bubble Knight, as you want passive peril quelling so you can throw more Assails
Ohh I thought assail is not used too much since the build is already using guns
Assail doesn't need ammo, which is a boon, and can cleave through a bunch of targets
It's very good for slicing through crowds and clearing loose hordes
The ideal is to weave it in while meleeing, but that can be challenging
Tbh I have a macro to throw Assail. It's middle click to swap press G > throw one shard > swap back to melee.
Assail is also good for killing most ranged units, and has surprisingly high range with the aimed mode
k we lost, thankfully, so i am only level 2
now we can see if lvl 2 psyker is enough for damnation 
you get the prize of a whole 3 random pox walkers getting shocked by your wall
i forgot sometimes i have to solo malice missions
Not anymore, we are recruiting you for our adventure
@zealous wing tell him
uh
join us
no spoilers
what blessings specifically for illisi btw
no KD so no deflector
Slaughterer and uncanny
hmmm i'm confused. Ainz said obscurus one taps mutants but i'm testing in the training room on auric and it's not always 1 tapping
come, join us
? what am i doing?
joining with a low level character
"YuriKnight" is that Karien?
don't ask about my steam name. cuz i won't give a reply
Moved Bubble Knight to melee builds in the guide
Wait a minute-
I thought I just got invited by randoms lol
I might have to go mid match if so I’m sorry
no worries we'll probably die super quick anyway
Maybe
i love how it says "Tertium Hive. Atoma Prime" as if there is some other place we're gonna fight
there isn't
the second hive city is being teased like no tomorrow
I hope it’s chaos wastes from vermintide 2
I can select a mission but nothing happens 
Must be.
darktide is always borked lmao
Now for the best part of the game: waiting for someone to host H40s
3 more wins, then I can host myself
15 wins more than I can host myself
LMAO
i probably contributed like 8 or so
doesn't seem to lower peril by 50%
its 10
Kobe! ⛹️
woo, H38. 2 more wins
Fire for the fire gods


i tried so hard T.T
good stuff
I will do one more
shall i do blender or tenderiser
sadly i need to go now T.T
I don't know what that means
Okay 
well ones a living blender the other is a living tenderiser
Whichever as long as it gets leveled
itll get true leveled... but i do need tenderiser practice, its very new
im struggling in damnation with him
So we will do auric
i dont want mothman to suffer
He is lvl 30 as well, he will be fine
He switched too
ah ok
@visual trellis I think you have the loading bug again
Do I
Shit I didn’t see this mb
You do
now come back, last game for me


see i need practice
@radiant frigate caught in 4k
How did you even go down at the end now?
crusher blob
for what reason do you invoke me
Because there is a Kat 
Shush
untrue kat
an imposter

heys thats what i do, i remember requesting the mod
Are you asking what mod or a link for the mod?
no, im saying i made the request that inspired the mod author to make it
Oh gotcha.
thats what i use
Thanks for the request.
pretty cool what drip it gets for me sometyimes
Do you know of a mod that makes player chat text or the text box more noticeable? Like it sparkles or something?
i know mister e has a mod to change the colors of the text
k thanks
what is a really good build on psyker im doing really bad with this class
Depends how you like playing
Builds in the top pin. Build bonanza.
But those are for is your are level 30.
You want to burn heretics? Electrocute them? Traumatize them? Slash them? Have manyyyy choices
I want the best one
purg = inferno
it's a strong staff that scales with density
better options for low density difficulties.
depends on you, what difficulty, and if you're still leveling or not
Elektro is best (lie)
best at what lmao
winning
that right there is why youre losing, imma be honest
you cant win if you dont know what youre doing
well, i suppose you can, if your teammates know what they're doing
Thats called getting carried
if you cant even decide if you want to be boss DPS, crowd control, specialist targeter... then youre lost until you do
yup

anything is best for winning
pretty braindead and pretty strong
EK is my favourite stave, inferno is 2nd
i like ek more than purg enough to have taken my purg drip and given it to EK build
I do ek knife
I think lil psyker desperately stabbing reaper is funny
I know I've brought it up before, but that time that the randomizer rolled laspistol, devils claw, and smite durring the brute conscripts event still haunts me. The smyker kept following me and took away my only way to kill crushers. 😭
smite? you got a tree randomizer too?
It's not a mod, just a wheel radom picker.
Put the things in there and roll for tree.
Fewer bad nodes to roll for now.
Forcing one of those into a build was funny.
if i'm planning on running Smite, is it a bad idea to have an electrokinetic force staff? i dont know much but its rclick attack seems to be similar to smite
EK and smite are fine to run together.
yes
Smiting constantly nonstop can be quite annoying to the team. So be aware.
visually and gameplay wise
lmao yes
i hate smite
Makes my comp lagthis is a lie
I forget if it was oggy chat or vet chat, but a long time ago I was trying to see what staff non-psykers preferred playing with.
EK being the most "ethical" staff for them lives in my brain.
I do need a better GPU though
im an assail hater
Stealing mah plasma gunner kills!
Im trying to get the penance!!!@
who and why hates assail
I cant say ive ever seen anyone say they hate assail
same
Everyone ive ever seen talk about a psyker blitz they hate talks about smite
And I never see brain burst come up
whats there to hate about assail
Positive or negative
If i had to guess itd probably be the stagger associated
i guess
I imagine a scenario "oh a horde is coming, I'll go take care of that while the others finish dealing with the threat in front" and as soon as they get over over there and are about to slice some heads off pshpshpshpshpsh and now they feel useless
In case you were looking for a random nobody's take on it...
if you dont mind me asking, why is smite disliked?
very smelly and uninteractive
also low damage
smelly?
Smite can be a very strong tool. However...
Smite is often misused and has a big impact on other player's experiences. If it's used to perma stun enemies so people don't get to play and those enemies are CCed in a bad position or spread out or if you are slowing the team down by lagging behind just stunning stuff, people will leave the game, barrel you, not res you, etc. The CC also doesn't allow "on dodge" blessings and talents to function for you or your teammates. Parry is also out.
Because of the way Smite ticks and spreads, it's very good at getting the last bit of damage of an enemy's health even if other players did most of the damage. It also is an enabler for the rest of the psyker's kit and snowballs A LOT. So the way it scales in high density with little effort is absurd.
A lot of smite users also don't learn how to dodge or manage CC immune enemies.
A culture of lobby or mission dodging smykers has formed because of this.
ye olde "enter room hold smite until 83%+ then shriek and keep holding smite" combo that clears rooms by itself is also a thing
extremely low effort
Another matter is, does anyone ever want a smyker in their team instead of an inferno or trauma psyker? I certainly don't
okay but... like does it work? disregarding terms of effort and such, is smite effective?
quite effective if used properly it can be a run saver
at pausing things? yes, until you hit CC immune modifiers in havoc, or monsters
using it to push things over? also very effective
Effective, sure, but Voidblast staff is better if you really like CC
but used poorly, its also very effective at making everyone hate you
i was one of those psykers back in my first 30-40 hours lol
i only used it to get the penance, and that was in private games with my spouse. never taken smite to pubs
my dad put me on to smite so i tried it and thought i was palpatine
You are palpatine
someone remind me to remove artificial latency, because i havent had mem leak crashes until i added it
tldr:
1: hurts my eyes
2: i need to dodge attacks in order to do more dmg, cant dodge if enemies cant attack me
3:hurts my eyes
4: it is very strong, so much it makes the game boring
5:hurts my eyes
if by any chance someone has a bad pc, on top of hurting their eyes, youre probably smiting their fps as well
I love playing the higher difficulties so that enemies can stand completely still
It's the main reason for me to play them
I want to get my point-and-click adventure itch scratched
Darktide is just Monkey Island 2
Thank you Lucasarts
yeah i love when the enemies dont fight back, very interactive gameplay
If it lets me win certain modifiers id take a smyker though
imagine a mod that opens a youtube video for you to watch when you're smiting
old void was OP and fire and blast have infinite aoe, so it makes sense
true
Its October and I can’t buy a witch hat for my pysker, this is heresy
is there any reason to use vending scriek instead of scriers gaze?
id think the psyker skull mask qualifies
lighting things on fire
Would be fun to have something similar to Geheimnisnacht (god I hope I spelled that right)
what is the shard throwing spell for? Horde clear?
yeah unless you have smth better for hordes
horde clear, specialist targeting while clearing a horde with melee, peril generation, interrupting plasma gunners from firing, its very versatile
To throw at anything that isn't carapace
i call it horde thinning
really nice for gunker since no gun horde clears like inferno or VB
isnt scriers gaze justa better version of the shreik
if you feel shriek is only for quelling peril or saving yourself from overload, then yes, but they both do different things
VERY different things
shriek, especially with creeping flames, is massive AOE damage, while scriers is for combat
idk they both quel perill but gaze gives some buffs to you
Yesnt
Shrieks range is insane
so with creeping flames its a big aoe stun with soul fire damage?
so its fus ro dah
if it lit them on fire
that ones seems pretty good
i still dont really understand the shard throwy ability. it seems like psyker has a lot of stuff to do the same thing
staff is horde clear, shards is horde clear, shriek is horde clear
i dont have an example ready to go but, heres a use case
you could just shoot the guy tho
that requires careful aiming before firing, not aiming after firing
and the shards seem kinda wimpy
shards also double down for harassing gunners
wait the shards follow your aim?
harassing specials whatever
yes
yes
ah interesting
shards have a ton of control
if you want to hit something specific but not the thing next to it, you can do that too
it just seems like the main useage is just yeet a bunch through a crowd to chop them up
ie, near a DH but not hit her
its an alernate range option, especially lovely when your weapon doesnt 1-2 shot specialist
what is dh
daemonhost
besides, as a psyker, or any class, you HAVE to pick a blitz.
if youre a gunker, BB doesnt make much sense, and neither does smite
extra refilling bullets? yes please
keeps the gun loaded in a CIVI maelstrom, use the shards on lesser things, save the gun for the monsters im there to kill
Shriek lets you stack more soul blaze than you normally could from other soul blaze sources, which can deal insane damage with the weird exponential ish damage curve on soul blaze stacks if the enemies already have some stacks because when they get more the damage increases greatly
With creeping flames that is
also i think i like assail because not only is it fun, its also the most technical
Elaborate
bb, point and click, smite, click and press w, assail, has extreme control if you want it
none of the others have much skill in their learning curve
you can get good at them, ye
but assail feels more... more
Assail is also point and click or spam randomly tbf
yeah but assail is a funny bouncy projectile
you look at something, it goes there
nothing else is a funny bouncy projectile.........
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Yeah they all do that idk what you're trying to say
I deranked cuz server kicked me out
f
i think theres multiple active derank complaining posts in forum rn
or there was last time i havent checked
good. needs more complaints
thats why its more technical, i suppose, you think they're the same when they arent
never enough derank complaining 🙏
to people who say "oh i did it even through all the crashes and such"
i say
it's nice you like suffering but......i don't
people being ok with pain and misery just cause they've gone through it is so weird
ig they want more people to relate to but i'd rather it just be fixed always
same
so for hordes should i just thorw shards and just kinda guide them around to chop up the horde?
yeah you can do that
assail usage does depend on the rest of your kit though
dont need em to basic mob horde clear with greatsword for example
i got those blue shards ability for my psyker, is this the ability everyone uses?
i think its the most fun one so i always use it
no but its popular for gunkers and meleekers
also its the most synergistic with right side that i play
BB is the go-to for stavekers, specifically with KF subnode
im having trouble with the staves, what do i use them for? because those blue shards really do it all
well shards do not handle carapace at all
i got this lightning staff but it does less damage than a catachan light attack
it's really weird like it just makes me look at them like they're a freak
are they upgradeable inside the skill tree?
i would guess the issue with your EK is, youre not built for it, its stats are poor, blessings/perks are wrong, etc
idk i think its some form of coping or smth
yes
warp splitting or the add ons are the big ones
most people just take warp splitting so it hits more targets
for cara i have no idea if rending would help i havent tried that myself
so if i dont like that staff do i just get a pistol
yeah
depends on the build but yeah get a gun
hand cannon for cara should be decent with crit build
yea i was using the staff and i almost blew up in the easiest diff
psyker gameplay
probably resizeable with the custom hud mod if needed and on pc
hey yall just wrecked on havoc with purgation staff
never use it till now
is showstopper any good
psyker has no surivviabilitty
oh no it's all just bubble psyker being carried by ogryn and arbite
i think its a bit of a meme blessing
is toughness important for all psyker builds?
yeah just cuz seeing the rng on random head burst being reliable
wondering if one more rng with this much horde/elite density might help
i feel like a glass cannon but ig that will change when i level my character up more
i just think the other options are better as far as i can tell
but it should still b funny idk
Weak Aura 
You kill everything
That's your survivability
Also ignore half of DT mechanics

psyker also has "everything you do staggers"
whats a typical havoc psyker build
seems it's bubble and purgation
for melee?
usually greatsword all right side talent tree
you're helping everyone ignore the stupid stuff, ranged scabs and moebian 21st
or bubble greatsword mostly right side
bubble greatsword?
blaze force sword still has guarantee crusher stagger
saves lives
i recommend deimos force sword (especially against rotten armor) cuz light -> heavy or push -> heavy both knock crushers down on weakspot hit
i only have blaze swords
ig depends on if you want safety or just to focus one guy easily
i didnt like crushers falling into the horde personally
it is nice for bulwarks though they're annoying anyways
there's always more crushers to hit in the weakspot! deimos lets you juggle and kill multiple of them
Coming back to psyker after a long LONG time away.
Lookin' at the inferno + venting shriek build. Have a duelling sword at the moment. Is Deimos the better option for peril generation?
If you're looking for a force sword to generate peril
Illisi is what you want
Just spam special
Stroke your sword
Good to know. What are the other good options, in general?
Duelling sword is obv good for dealing with carapace, and I know it well. There a write up anywhere on the options and why people choose what? Search has been helpful for listing weapons, but less so for rationale
dueling sword for everything other than peril generation because atm its currently busted as fuck
but if you're bored of the ds or just dont like it, you can use the force swords or the FGS
Obscurus for obscene amount of killing carapace
Deimos for safer killing carapace
Illisi for dealing with multiple enemies
Knife incredible finesse weapon with tons of mobility
Tactical Axe for a watered down version of knife, but pretty safe
Shock Maul, Chain weapons and Devil's Claw aren't that used on psyker
Although you can run dclaw for the kinetic deflection parry spam
i dont think dclaw is real
Force Greatsword is a generalist, it does everything
But be mobile

Heavy Sword kills everything short of carapace, also not that used by Psyker
guessing warp resist is the dump stat on all the force weapons?
yea
The Rashad Combat Axe is one of the best weapons out there
Also not that used on Psyker
except voidstrike its an attention seeker so it dumps blast radius instead
I have a FGS from when it was introduced but ended up pivoting to another career and didn't ever put it through its paces
should i wait until im at high peril to use the shreik or is it not that important
its called resist a dobra in portuguese?
whats so good about blaze sword? is it jus high damage?
at 86, or was 83, you apply all stacks of soulblaze from creeping flames
so yeah
shriek past that
yea and the push attack is a strong push
ah i see. i just never get that high peril with the shards usually
but the special on blaze isnt really good? and whats best combo on blaze sword?
Resistência à Dobra
do not use special on obscurus and deimos tbh
yeah i somehow havent played dt in portuguese before
ig i switched to english right away
so the push is good? it seems like it does a lot of stagger so probably good
We don't use the special on obscurus/deimos
yea its cool
For single target
Deimos light into heavy
For light stab heavy stab
If and I mean if the target survives
It hits the ground hard
For obscurus single target is heavy light light
is heavy attack good or just spam light?
Heavy attacks are good
But you'll be spamming lights against hordes
seir melk holding out on me on +3 stamina
i sarcastically joke, only Six can save me tonight.
it's a joke cuz he can't save me from server crashes
have you tried going up to fatshark and burning some incense for the servers
maybe a prayer or 2
maybe they need to be exorcised if anything........
i think fatshark has got a lot of those jokes due to derank
it's like chainsword
you're locked in place for 1.5 secs while using it
not a great predicament in mobs
but its good at everything else
question: for a Brain burst build, running both the fire staff nad Empiric shock would make an aoe attack that can also boost the BB? so if it hits a crusher conga all of them take more damage from the brain bursts?
what does the blaze sword push do is it like soul fire and then the push attack is the stagger?
The push is just normal ish push
It split seas
The Push Attack is a 9 meters single target stagger
Can open bulwarks
the blaze swords put a warp shield, visual effect
the push attack is a force push, has long range and can open bulwarks
Throw crushers off balance
also trigger kinetic flayer
Sorry didn’t see this
psyker has like no toughness regen i die so much
They gen plenty of toughness, but your source has to meet what you're doing.
Most of it is over time.
what are the deimos perks/blessings? Search is turning up old results
whats the best staff
Has the Electrok staff blessings have changed nowadays? are we running surge instead of warp flury?
Your first couple talents give decent toughness regen
its what i run but m2 spam seems to be stronger
Ya’ll are running staffs?
not all times, if team is not ammo hungry I go gun-fu
not draining your teamates ammo is very powerful
I rarely use my gun
that way the Rumblegryn and the Arby gunners can shoot as much as they want
is support at its finest
I play psyker like a zealot with magic
instead of infusing knifes with Bistol bleed you infues warpslash with bleed
I hate it when teammates steal my brain burst kill
I know the average dt player thinks “see heretic, kill heretic” which I do myself but its still annoying
there'll be more

Sounds like a M1 build
M2 should still be Nexus Flurry
so its build specific? what is the difference?
Real warp zealots use mind knives not BB
1 you get the worst talents in practice and Empyric Shock
The other you play the game normally
Oh wait
(I’m going to pretend I know I know what you are saying) oh, yeah. Definitely.
You can skip channelled
Yeah nevermind
Oh Souldrinker is there
Oof
Still stands
"oh but Souldrinker is good"
On a M1 Scriers Surge build?
Where your only source of Soulblaze is Perilous
Oh but you can skip Souldrinker
And go
Wildfire
💀
Yup still stands
I just played Shock Mine arby for the first time. This blitz is dumb
does purgation staff get stacked if i do carapace and flak
or should i just do like maniac and unyielding
hell should i get unarmoured and flak since it's really killing swarms
i won two
so i'm back up to 21
but it's still frustrating. if i didn't derank to a dc i'd be at 22 🙁
another noob question: what exactly is the difference between staff types? is it just their secondary attack that varies?
no their primary also varies too
for example electrokinetic has a high crit rate on its primary fire and its secondary is an electrocution
Voidblast has the same primary fire as electrokinetic but without the extra crit iirc. while its secondary is basically an aoe explosion in an area with infinite cleave
Purgation staff the primary fire is a small wave of fire with high stagger. it doesn't go as far as EK or Voidblast primary though. its secondary is basically flamethrower. you charge it up and its a short beam of fire with infinite cleave
Voidstrike.......idfk cuz it's kinda bad and also i kinda hate it
yea i just got voidstrike which prompted my question since it seems like its primary is the same as the secondary mostly?
it is not
the secondary deals more damage and is slower
iirc
it's really not worth using. it's a bad staff right now
and it's not just me saying it. its damage numbers and characteristics of it just aren't good
not enough cleave and the secondary is also slow iirc
i think also charge time too long? something like that
i wish there was somebody smarter than me to answer your questions but ......
hey man you taught me some stuff about staves i didnt know before so thanks!
to be accurate, it doesn't just kill everything in one blast. the damage is most at center and is less the further from center. it can knock over trash in one hit but maulers and bulwarks and crushers and reapers take more than one
inferno force staff (flame staff) and Voidblast (trauma staff) are the unquestionable best at the moment
in non-havoc electrokinetic is really good but it falls off in havoc cuz too much armor (i'm guessing also not fast enough horde clear)
if you want to play Electrokinetic staff you'll want to pair it with Venting Shriek because it generates a lot of peril. If you take the left keystone with in fire reborn, you'll be able to get shriek down to about 6.6 seconds in hectic combat situations. which is pretty good
Inferno can go well with bubble just cuz it doesn't generate as much peril. but inferno+shriek is pretty fucking great
on a note completely unrelated to staffs, i always lose whenever i have a taunt Ogryn 🙁
electrokinetic gets you like 5 secondaries but it feels like less cuz it's also not guarantee stagger or kill
it's pretty fast at killing certain elites if you spec into it
my electrokinetic is specced for killing with primary fire.
general ones people use are flak and crit chance
had the opposite effect of having good cover from taunt ogryns, weird
Very weird
i don't get people going into havoc power outage games and not bothering to tell people to grab flashlight
Dunno. I do it without a flashlight
bet
Best blessings for trauma?
Nexus blaze or flurry rending
?
if you're playing high enough a torch isn't going to be the reason you lose, and if you lose lower than that, the torch wasn't the reason why
I.e torch not needed
It was very odd earlier. Had some questionable loadouts on my havoc team but it went...super well
Smyker lighting 😏
debating on smite and headburst
cuz sometimes you just don't have team members that shoot that far
Headburst with kinetic flayer
kinetic flayer with smite
Imagine how cool that would be lmao
be neat if there was things that changed functionality of a blitz based on playstyle, like removing the ability to manually brain burst things, but getting a lower cooldown on KF
I almost never bb anything except with kf procs
Any attack that does damage
I walk into a hole I can't see. Screen like literally black and darks.

anyway to make the inferno staff flames smaller? can barely see with it
Only benefit is less stuff.
wut
Look, new PC ex.
I miss custom flames
vastly superior mod to this
but deprecated and doesn't get updated anymore
so it just doesn't work :/
I should probably put a "Build to use while leveling" build in the guide
If you ask on the modding discord there's a non-zero chance someone might update it
A warp and none warp option. Karien has an assail and inferno build. It's called bee keeping or something like that.
It's kinda funny (and cool) how the decision making is immediately complicated bc there's not an obviously optimal or build-agnostic path buildpath through the blue nodes before your blitz
Although on the other hand there is, it's just quietude then battle med
The second lot of blue talents are just as if not more rough for new players to navigate lmao
i guess it also depends on how rich you are, if i were starting a new psyker character with 10m dockets and 100k plasteel/diamantine the leveling process would probably look a little different from "psyker is your first character on a fresh save"
cuz you can just sacrifice spam to mastery 20, get a good staff and use that
Yeah fair you'd want to write one for new players and one for new psykers
whereas the true poverty approach is probably crutching on assail
I'd skip assail for new players
They aren't learning anything using it
Absolutely a BB pick
i used nothing but assail until i hit 30, but i was both very poor (this was in the dark era before deterministic perks/blessings) and also pretty experienced by having built/leveled all other classes to 30 before psyker
I'd also be getting new players to pick nodes like channelled force to get them to think about using both of a staffs attacks, which attacks are warp and which aren't and also understanding that psyker isn't just about warp shenanigans
Yeah which is totally fair bc you'd have adequate mechanical skill already and probably just want to power through missions with assail so you can get to actual builds at 30
yeah it's the "i've already learned my lesson, just get me to 30 asap" build
What should I do to combat ragers? They're beating my ass sideways.
Stagger them or learn to time your attacks and dodges around their attacks
Lots and lots of stagger options
What weapons are you using
At the moment the force greatsword and voidstrike staff.
Ok so with FGS your warp slice special attacks will stagger them. You can also push attack them to make them fall over. Or you can just hit them on the head without getting hit yourself if you get your timing right
If you're on pc download the creature spawner mod and fight them in the psykhanium until you get used to their attack patterns
blue stimmed rager is the stuff of my nightmares... -200% stagger applied and only 20% damage taken, i don't think anything short of forced knockdown (abilities like shout/maybe explosive nades?) or stun (smite/stunstorm?) can slow them down
I'm on the PlayStation. I'm only level 13 at the moment so I'm sure I'll get better with time. But I have identified that the ragers especially beat my ass.
NOT ACCEPTED

Normal new player stuff.
Smite LEFT CLICK is also good for quickly staggering them and then keeping on swinging your melee or casting
Assail is also nuts against ragers
Staggers the poopoo out of them
generally at lvl 13 you want to be relying on assail
most of the time for most of the things
Not if you're brand new to the game
if youre lvl 13 and psyker is your first char then you want to learn how to press the dodge and melee attack button i guess
the problem is that psyker just sucks pre 30
and staffs suck doubly so because 200 power rating staves are not the one
20 mastery or not
also hi everyone i have returned from the wilderness
got up early today just to binge the tide
What weapon should I use for my ranged then?
a gun
the staffs suck at low power because having low warp res + low quell + low damage makes them just feel awful
revolver can be good for killing that one thing that needs to die, shotguns also
recon las can be great
but really where you are dude just try to focus on learning the core melee mechanics of the game
ALSO, unrelated
wtf is this toughness gen on my beloved now
i feel literally unkillable
Gets extra silly with ghost and all the damage reduction talents
Say goodbye to chip damage
Quietude already being great and getting buffed by 60% 
there was one moment where i fucked up and got surrounded by ragers just then
and im just like, oh wait no im a space wizard
zap
they also did something with DLSS because the game looks way too good
A swing from a rager (because it's actually two hits) used to fuck you up a bit, now it does like 3 damage to me lmao
everything is so crisp
Pick soulstealer quietude mettle and souldrinker then add warp ghost on top
Funny toughness regen with burga
yeah it feels kinda bonkers tbh
is the only way to die getting flattened by a crusher?
Plus essence harvest bc why not
yeah essence harvest is nutty
Nets 😭
Hmm is it good?
My build has no more spare points
No
Need to run essence harvest some time just to see uptime
But I'm just talking about meme stacking toughness regen
i think its just up all the time tbh
feels like it for me
idk what the new hotness is for builds yet i just threw a few together
Maybe today I will win vigil rot armour
And getting backshot by packs of ragers
Vigil seems to spawn boss at the start always and with a bunch of shooters
Silo flashback
i did notice im not 2 bonking crushers with my FGS now
Essence harvest is the equivalent of generating or quelling 15% toughness with quietude. Seems bad tbh, but as you say syllo it'd be interesting to see the uptime on high havoc
Hahahaha 
i think its just that you dont have to do anything and its literally always up
Yeah often a 3 bonk if you don't crit
Essence harvest can stack with warp charges
I did the thing
Is it though?!?
So depending on how fast you gain them
2 days ago I played gungryn on silo and had to kill all those shooters alone because the rest of the team walked downstairs and died
i mean killing one elite / special every 5 secs isnt hard
Do you use mods dom
yeah
Is too hard
Get on the Uptime bandwagon
Yea I actually left that mission after the 2nd time the rest of the team was wiped
Send me gooning material I mean data
aight bet
I was too tired to continue
I'm sure a few of the 187 mods @plucky flax runs are new
but i actually dont know if i cba to make a meme jihadker build
No new mods but you can try surge surge meme
Its not worth it because it's not even funny when it goes off
To my shame, I got my last 3 havoc rank ups on support Arby instead of Psyker. The teams I joined already had Inferno psykers, and Voidblast bores me. And I am not confident enough with EK to use that when I am tryharding
Pick souldrinker for free 5% crit chance and don't run any soulblaze talent
I'm starting to question whether warp battery and the warp charges on kill nodes are worth taking
Imagine knowing talent names
On which build?
Borderline not worth
on any build
i think warp battery is good for my blazing shriek build
Why it's cdr for shriek
especially with the PC nerfs
6 warp charges is mostly just a waste and you probably get more warp charges from elite/special kills than anything
sorry PA
On non-Soulblaze builds, I was struggling a lot to get to 6 charges.
two nodes for slightly more cdr for shriek, eh
Who's got an uptime screenshot from h40 with warp charges
one moment
i think before the extra 2 was not nearly as worth
but now i think it is
idk tho me big noob agen 
Yeah but extra -3s per for a 40 mins game comes out to a lot
what -3s per
Per ability cast
you don't usually have 6 stacks when you shriek
ya u do
Surely you have this data already
Why not in a big mixed horde fight
especially if also running IFR
I don't have data for not running them, I could see how many shrieks per minute with power di
It's 2.25s
Here are two
that doesn't tell much about how frequently you had 6 stacks when you shrieked
I was responding to Irosk's request
True but it gives credence to the theory that warp battery isn't worth
warp battery isn't worth because you shriek so much yes
except for the cdr
possibly
Well yeah
yeah i think that was always the case
That's the whole point
you have very little uptime at 5 or 6 stacks
because as soon as you get there you are shrieking again
but i also think now with the PA nerfs that extra cuple secs CDR is more valuable
but again me big noob again
i just ran this, tell me why its horrible and what i should change
It's not actually a nerf a lot of the time
Assuming the CDR aura and 3x CDR trinkets:
6 charges is a 12.87 cooldown on Shriek
4 charges is 16.38 seconds on Shriek
Why are you taking that melee damage node
because melee dmg good no?
and because i wanted to see if i can 2 shot curshers
Look at you sitting at 6 stacks like a 
with the MK6
Why does mine look different
that was just one of your runs, I saw a different one where your average was way lower. Lower is better actually
Change every node. Pick everything you didn't. Inverse your build and it might be serviceable

Ye it's an old pic I got already on discord
Need to check a few runs i did last night
Depends on your build. It doesn't seem that melee focused but I only have the tree to go off
oh it isnt i was using blazing trauma and it felt pretty good
but only H30
i am big noob now
Not for warp battery 
have you seen my build guide? Is in pins
Soon to be red headed step child of psyker tree
potato replaced 
I think In Fire Reborn is definitely worth it. I will often Shriek and get 4-6 stacks back immediately from Creeping Flames. Psychic Vampire sucks a lot.
Warp Battery is fine. I don't think it's an amazing, world-breaking talent. But it's not bad.
that was my experience
I could see dropping Warp Battery in non-Soulblaze builds
IFR is really good and so i get warp battery by default
I don't know what I get my stacks from with elites constantly dying
I view IFR as insurance that my stacks will get high quickly
I mean, my Shriek is often on a 6.5 second cooldown
That's why it's the red headed step child. You don't want it but you have to put up with it
i think i could drop essence harvest for quietitude
Yes.
but essence harvest was definitely making me unkillable so i think its basically a sidegrade
as like i said, its literally always up
Did you just generate and then quell 15% peril? Congrats, quietude just doubled essence harvests output per second
because of ifr
yeah maybe quietitude would generate more actually and works with shriek
but tbh as the 10% melee node seems pointless i could just drop that for it instead
I would drop attck speed + essence harvest and outright switch to the +10% CDR since it gives you more dps in the long run with venting shriek stacks
you mean seers presence?
Yea I forgot the name
i would but its trauma not burga
+10% 
that node is actually kind of useful
Drop the bottom right melee damage node for warp ghost
Ghost is one node away wdym
I might honestly drop Warp Battery on my Rending Trauma build. Looking at my uptimes.
no it isnt
Its one node
Yes it is its one node from Warp rider
We are clearly looking at the tree
thats 2 points
Look again
dropping 10% melee gives me 1 point
They added pathing
Kekw
Ghost is based dude
yeah it seems great
No reason not to run it on any build you're maintaining high peril
but i already feel like im just not dying
Ghost is free toughness and stamina
Don't die even harder
if anything i want more damage output
I love bark jost
Use my builds. >:( Or else.
Your main way of doing that is warp rider + warp ghost
If you don't have a bunch of toughness talent nodes already, warp ghost is less value in terms of additional toughness than just taking a toughness gen node
.....
Depends on build. Not all toughness gen was created equal
gives me toughness gen and reduces passive qulling
idk about passive quelling its already not doing anything
i have no issues maintaining peril
Ok dude
and 2 stam is w/e
warp rider scales damage with peril, warp ghost removes passive quell which lets you stay at high peril constantly
again
which means you're getting high warp rider uptime
i have no issues with maintaining high peril
and extra damage
Yea i had been using that build, feels so good
and i think yeah sure swap harvest for quietitude to get even more toughness gen that i already wasnt using
for a melee build i think the tree would look very different but tbh im just looking to get even more dmg if i can
i think the main options would be shock or force but they were always poop before and i dont see them working well with blaze trauma
Lmao us forgetting staffkers exist
Yeah warp ghost is not that useful then
IKR
I keep thinking us greatswordsmen are legion here
It's their fault for having the audacity
i do use FGS with this
WE ARE
YEAHHHHHHH
but bubble knight is bubble knight i havent even made a build for that yet
Oh also dom
i have been wondering the wilderness of real life for the past month
yeah that looks kind of really good
Dom is here
hey beans ❤️
Hi
got up early today to binge tide for the next 12 hours
The only issue you run into is potential headpopping if you get hit and reach critical as you use a warp attack
how does it interact exactly with being at just below critical?
Plasma gunner tide
The best way possible
say im at 90% peril and i eat a solid smack from summat
will it still absorb the full dmg?
You still get full value even if you're at 95% and would've gained 20% from the attack
It gives full dr and stops at 97%
It has caused me to overload before.
Skill issue
i could see it happening if i wasnt running shriek

very easily
Be at like 80-90% Peril charging RMB > pox bomber tags me slightly > suddenly 97% peril, then 100% in 0.3 seconds from RMB charge > die
Just use a mod that stops you casting when you're at 100%

Wouldn't it be fun if the electro staff arcs more/less depending on body mass? like 4-6 times on regular trash mobs acting like a mini smite.
4-regular
5-fully charged or crit
6-fully charged + crit
cheats 
I'd say Just a Dream has killed me... 4-5 times?
What's more difficult is when something tags you in a tight horde, knocks you to 97%, and you can't find space to quell because you can't use your staff to clear space
ok im just gonna take a quick look at six's bubble knight build

*stolen bubble knight build
atomizing several poxwalkers with lightning would be so fun.
Charged strikes staff bonk.
they really need to make the staff special like the special on sienna scythe
I attributed it to AgentChaos!
i see no quick shards and i cri
dw im sure he has some wasted talents in there

probably has the ranged damage node SMDH my head
Or a blessing which makes arcs connect more &have less damage falloff.
Also pls buff buff electro staff base dmg and aginst carapace. wearing armor that consists metal shouldn't protct you from electricity.
dont disagree with that take
I searched the wiki and it clearly said carapace armor has metal in it.
every metal is efficiently conductive tho.
darn it
Anyways the electro m1 really needs some buffs either being less peril or more damage.
you're joking
its already stronk af
take empyric shock i guess
literally decimates everything but cara and unyielding and can do adeqiately against bosses if youre taking ES
My wish for it would be a high peril & high damage anti-carapcae staff.
can the event roll without vent/lights out?
I don't want it to be a powerful tazer, I want it to be a literal thunderbolt that decimates stronger enemies like the plasma.
no, lame event
I recently played with someone Macroing left click with electro staff and venting shriek just steamrolling through an auric maelstrom not letting us interact with enemies so it was a walking simulator for us.
I thought this was fixed or removed?
oh yeah, i also noticed "swap weapon" in skitarius is broken @plucky flax , any fixes?
like it actually swaps my weapon sometimes now
which is bad, obviously
It needs its finesse modifier fixed.
Are you sure he was macroing, maybe just lmb with autofire. It's 2 shots per second still
speaking of which, why is the primary for an "electro" staff a warp bolt anyways. it shuld be a small arc discharge.
And more with surge obviously
Get the latest version?
I couldn't get mine to shoot as fast as theirs which was super fast in comparison, looked like a machine gun.
Where fireball staff
VT2
MB meant for the charge attack not the basic one.
I hate the current electro M1
Im drinking a phat can of redbull im ready for some games
I'll play some
