yeah you did GREAT it wasnt a criticism

#

im just saying its very normal for me to be burning the big blob then stood there in their face pushing them away

ripe obsidian
#

If there's a vet with power sword or kraks, they usually win crusher DPS. Otherwise inferno + uncanny does, in my experience

#

Usually

tulip kettle
#

power sword not close

#

krak spam maybe

strong gulch
#

I should have armored more maybe.

ripe obsidian
#

Power sword can still 2-shot crushers if you're good, I believe. Maybe 3. I am not good.

#

It's a pretty bonkers melee weapon

tulip kettle
#

ultimately when you are hitting 1 enemy at a time its never gonna compete with doing 700 (closer to 1000 with other buffs) per tick to 20 enemies at once

ripe obsidian
#

The difference is that the vet should be killing Crushers while inferno kills everything else

tulip kettle
#

i dont disagree

ripe obsidian
#

So if the team is working properly, vet should win crusher damage easily

strong gulch
#

I didn't get superiority to proc if KF killed the elite with sword in hand in the meat grinder. Could have just been a fluke.

ripe obsidian
#

I also had a power sword + plasma vet do 500k damage in a 40 minute game, so

tulip kettle
#

i think its probably still fine

ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

as long as it procs from them actually burning

ripe obsidian
#

I can test again tomorrow

tulip kettle
#

which is how they mainly die

#

or if i just stab one that comes too close but isolated

summer prairie
#

DS4 can kill 12 crushers in around 25 seconds with max DD stacks, but you'll be dropping them if you are focusing on just crushers

#

sure if your crushers already have 31 stacks it's hard to beat, but if you start from 0 it's different

#

need some other elites mixed in

tulip kettle
#

i mean lets not start again, but we literally expereinced it together where there are 20+ rotten crushers with all the maulers and ragers mixed in

#

its not uncommon in current havoc

#

i wish it was

summer prairie
#

I just don't agree it's the best weapon in the game against crushers, just in specific situations

#

and I'm sure most people don't

tulip kettle
#

i think there is no weapon that can safely and efficiently kill this much armour as burning them then uncanny force sword pushing

#

i posted videos

#

i just posted a scoreboard from a lower lvl havoc with six in the game

summer prairie
#

don't need videos, not like we haven't all tried that in psykhanium

#

how does a scoreboard prove anything

tulip kettle
#

i dont know what else to say

summer prairie
#

I can post a scoreboard with 3m damage and 0 kills

tulip kettle
#

dude whatever im not engaging with this

zealous wing
#

fighting auric crushers in the psykanium, is not fighting rotten armour havoc crushers mixed with their mauler rager buddies and a horde and several bombers, trappers, hounds, flamers, snipers, in a very large area with a couple hallways/stairwells and mixed cover areas

summer prairie
#

I'm sure he is using the solo mod

#

to get havoc crushers in psyk

zealous wing
#

i mean, fighting crushers with a DS

tulip kettle
#

it just dosnt matter

#

it literally doesnt

#

if you cant do 20000 dps with a sword its not going to compete

#

and you cant

#

so idk what else to say

#

im just not engaging with this discussion anymore

cold ivy
#

The answer to "what is the best weapon to kill X" depends on how many X you need to kill

tulip kettle
#

completely agreed

#

and when X is 30+ carapace armoured increased healthpool enemies while also staying safe

#

the answer is always inferno into uncanny force sword pushing

radiant frigate
cold ivy
#

yeah

zealous wing
#

@summer prairie

#

hello there

summer prairie
#

not me

zealous wing
#

you surrre

cold ivy
#

also small digression about rotten armor: i hate the little farts they create on death, i feel like there's a specific distance where a crusher winding up an overhead to kill you is invisible through the green gas. maybe it's killing too many of them in the same spot that makes the gas more and more opaque? not 100% sure

tulip kettle
#

i hate the visual disturbancew

#

i love the ploosh sound

#

imposter syllo with the same TL

#

thats dedication

#

only plays when you do

zealous wing
#

funny when i just walk out of psyk and see one of you motherfuckers

summer prairie
#

ok you got me, it's me

zealous wing
#

or, check previous missions and see someone here

zealous wing
tulip kettle
#

would be cool if the mourningstar had more than like 20 people on it

#

would be awesome to see it actually full

zealous wing
#

a proper hub, ye

tulip kettle
#

i remember when division 2 came out and the safehouses had literally thousands of people in em

zealous wing
#

would be fun if they had what i saw SM2 has, a sparring room

tulip kettle
#

all with collision

zealous wing
#

i'd love to have a pvp mode, honestly, for friendly spars

tulip kettle
#

nah it would be pointless

zealous wing
#

yeah, entirely

#

but, fun

tulip kettle
#

we just instagib each other

zealous wing
#

perhaps

#

duel of the BB psykers

strong gulch
#

Y'all ever play fast food sim? I bet if we all played, it'd be a mess.

zealous wing
#

fuck you brunt

tulip kettle
#

why? seems like a gift

zealous wing
#

after i upgrade the revolver, waste money, NOW i get one

tulip kettle
#

oh i see

strong gulch
#

Lmao

tulip kettle
#

yeah hes just trolling you

zealous wing
#

like yeah thanks brunt, i hope youre dead wherever you left to

#

honestly though, i take that back

tulip kettle
#

WOAH

zealous wing
#

its the servitors fault

#

servitor needs to be repurposed

strong gulch
#

I was gonna say.

tulip kettle
#

we all know where he is btw

#

off doing hive secundus things

zealous wing
#

last i heard though was people saying he probably dead

strong gulch
#

Oh where the vid you talking about the traitor being shot and me posting a vid of the shooting?

zealous wing
#

you want the clip or you asking in general

tulip kettle
zealous wing
#

my brain is... deepfried

zealous wing
#

the skyrim sounding two

white valley
#

There is a memory fragment where we hear him kill one

#

Havoc genestealers when

#

maybe with second hive city

zealous wing
#

strong gulch
#

Oh is it live now?

acoustic jacinth
#

Rashuns?

#

I wasnt aware

strong gulch
#

Angy oggy activate.

acoustic jacinth
#

RASHUNS

strong gulch
#

Syllo saw something about a possible event coming up in the code that was rations related.

#

Angry ogryn was in it. KEKW_ogryn

acoustic jacinth
#

Looks fun tbh

white valley
#

lads heard there were rations

zealous wing
#

theyre everywhere

#

im so cinfued

strong gulch
#

Oggy mode. Rashuns working.

#

Ok gn all.

zealous wing
#

just had a plague ogryn spawn in the final fight for assassination mission... on heresy

#

the hell is going on

summer prairie
#

I think the angry ogryns is just the previous ogryn event, but maybe it only starts happening if you destroy rations or something

zealous wing
#

been collecting i think

#

so confused

#

yeah its event, but like

#

theres no tab for it

#

if its recover, or destroy, but the event says "recover or destroy xnumber rations" 10 times, why fucking bother with a difference?

summer prairie
zealous wing
#

and what does THAT mean

summer prairie
zealous wing
#

they cant be creative can they

#

well after relaunch, least it counted the mission i just did

strong gulch
#

Gimme your lunch money.

plucky flax
#

Kill all ogryns

strong gulch
#

Should play bully oggy.

#

Feck. I said i was going to bed.

summer prairie
#

If you recover you get ogryn enemies/bosses, if you destroy you get moebian hordes and renegade captains. Not sure how that works during a mission

strong gulch
#

Maybe tomorrow I bewilder frens with my oggy "skills".

summer prairie
#

maybe it's based on the global count

strong gulch
#

Glad monster health bars mod is working then

tulip kettle
#

gnight beans

summer prairie
#

daemonhosts (and other bosses) are guaranteed to spawn a medium ration on death, surely a reason to kill them

tulip kettle
#

a medium ration?

#

rations come in different sizes?

summer prairie
#

like plasteel I guess

#

small and medium pickup

#

it's probably just a currency essentially

#

I think it spawns a special horde after picking up 50 rations, boss/horde at 100 and "super boss" +horde at 350

strong gulch
#

This won't be oops all bonbons again will it?

summer prairie
#

"super boss" if recover is winning (?) on auric is just

#

destroy super boss is twins

#

but nothing else, maybe a horde

#

Didn't notice this in the buff that you get when you destroy rations

#

or when destroy is winning globally maybe

#

surge surge with infinite cleave sounds decent

deft stump
#

So what do you do when someone fucked up and left the freezer door open and everything defrosted and now you are going to eat all the blame for spoiling food when all you have been doing is either asleep or trying to do some weird shit in DT?

flat nexus
dusk wren
#

isn't this like

#

a reskinned skull event of the past

deft stump
deft stump
#

And a more annoying button to press to pick up the rations.

summer prairie
#

Players are supposed to get buffs but unclear when they get activated

dusk wren
#

i think they are going to do something depending on who wins out between destroyed or recovered

dusk wren
#

anyway, thunderhammer bros eating good

tulip kettle
#

recover seems t be winning by a huge margin right now

#

so many ogryn cosplayers apparently

deft stump
tulip kettle
#

yeah so just say that, i didnt do it, i didnt know anything about it, blame whoever did it not me

i would struggle to sleep after such a thing also

It's actually really well written tbh

this was poor timing

RASHUNNNNSS

tulip kettle
#

i love pressing a number key constantly the whole game

#

such depth

acoustic jacinth
#

Are there really that many?

#

Yet to play

tulip kettle
#

they are EVERYWHERE

acoustic jacinth
#

Gonna take ek psyker for the big boys

marble crater
#

So what does the event actually do?

tulip kettle
#

every special seems to drop em

acoustic jacinth
#

Oh man

tulip kettle
#

and other enemies too

#

when you pick up a certain amount you get a plogryn

#

its either recover or destroy

#

but recover is bound to "1" and destroy "2"

#

so i think most people pressing recover by default

marble crater
#

I guess I will have to play it to understand what's going on

tulip kettle
#

its literally just like

#

diamantine everywhere

#

that you press 1 or 2 to pick up or destroy

#

and when you pick up enough a plogryn spawns

marble crater
#

Who thought that was a good idea?

hearty wolf
#

looter shooter darktide

tulip kettle
#

idfk but its bad

hearty wolf
#

Bordertide

marble crater
#

I want to play the game and not run around picking up stuff, that was already annoying in the other event that had us pick stuff up

tulip kettle
#

got 350 rations in 1 auric run

#

so in that game people pressed 1 or 2 350 times

acoustic jacinth
#

Lmao

tulip kettle
#

many more were missed

marble crater
#

I wonder which buttons they are for controller and how much it sucks to pick stuff up

hearty wolf
#

Imagine it's like

tulip kettle
#

probably a fucking dpad key or sthing

hearty wolf
#

R3 or L3

#

Sticks in shambles

tulip kettle
#

why couldnt they make it the use key

#

makes 0 sense

#

also purple pop up on screen

marble crater
#

Guess I will find out later, can't wait

tulip kettle
#

"SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES"

#

plogryn spawns

#

krak grenades fly

#

plogryn dies

#

such gameplay

acoustic jacinth
#

Don't worry, i'll make it fun by bringing thammer zealot, then it'll be EVEN more invigorating gameplay

plucky flax
#

I played 1 round.

#

Press 1 to pick up is so restarted.

#

What if I want to pick up this thing but I am reloading my range weapon hrmmm KMS

hearty wolf
#

Time to rebind

fading patrol
deft stump
deft stump
#

And yes, you are totally going to accidentally waste stims and ammocrates/med crates doing it.

marble crater
#

Yea and I think it's bad

deft stump
#

The number of stimms I wasted already sits at 7.

#

And a med kit.

#

Unless you go DESTROY.

#

Cos then it's DPAD Right.

#

Which is nothing burger.

marble crater
#

I do that already anyway, I want to stim but the game eats one of the imputs and I throw the grate down instead

deft stump
#

If the amount of ppl destroying is angy controller users, I'll understand.

#

Like, Just bind pick up to fucking X.

#

And destroy to something stu[id cos nobody but a few would really do it.

marble crater
#

Just don't make an event that needs people to manually pick things up

acoustic jacinth
#

You WILL pick up the rations!

marble crater
#

No, let the ogryns starve

jovial juniper
wraith sphinx
#

hell naw this event is ass

#

I'm uninstalling the game until it ends

zealous wing
#

honestly, its not that bad imo

#

annoying but, meh

plucky flax
#

Meh I cba to suffer so ill just chose not to play it

tulip kettle
#

its very annoying to press "1" 400 times in a game, deselceting my ranged weapon every time

plucky flax
#

H40 more fun anyway Kapp

zealous wing
#

i just didnt grab any, and i think otherpeoples pickups count so

#

if it does, i win by doing nothing but normal

tulip kettle
#

hexis doesnt return the cart at the supermarket

zealous wing
#

... technically, no

#

we leave them by the taxis

tulip kettle
#

hexis is responsible for nazis being voted into power

zealous wing
#

if we had to drag the cart back to the mall then go back to the bus we'd never be free of the mall

#

HEY NOW

tulip kettle
#

"i dont need to vote against them because enough other people will" ass take

zealous wing
#

Thats mean

#

:<

jovial juniper
zealous wing
#

litmus test?

deft stump
#

Wow. Seens some people actually choose to destroy.

#

And well, changes nothing.

#

It still spawns a wave of bulwarks and a pogryn.

summer prairie
#

I think the maps are supposed to also change based on whether you recover or destroy. Angry ogryns or starvation riots (which I think has the inferno modifier).

dusk wren
#

i'm sure it will change something at the end

summer prairie
#

so maybe there's some progression and the buffs get enabled then

dusk wren
#

is there no announcement for the event yet

wraith sphinx
#

no

deft stump
dusk wren
#

crazy

wraith sphinx
#

announcement is always days late

deft stump
#

Angry always seems to happen if most are recovered.

#

Starvation if most are destroyed.

dusk wren
#

i played 3 games with it and neither triggered

summer prairie
#

oh, the maps is suddenly on fire?

deft stump
#

Not on fire.

#

Just. Warning. Starvation Riots.

summer prairie
#

I see

deft stump
#

Spawns bulwarks and maybe a pogryn.

jovial juniper
#

Well not the litmus test itself

#

But the shopping cart litmus test is

summer prairie
#

Based on the description it sounded like it's a description you see on the map before selecting the mission rather than something that happens during the mission

deft stump
#

Basically, don't think it changes anything but the banner.

#

On heresy, it's 3-5 bulwarks and maybe a pogryn.

#

And my god is heresy pubs bad. Having to solo pogryns cos everyone is dead on on the floor with a meme build...

cosmic cobalt
#

they're literal babies bruh

deft stump
zealous wing
#

by the taxis is a main one, because the mall is right next to a main bus terminal

deft stump
#

We just have cart returns at the Taxistand and carparks for a reason.

#

A short walk if you want your dollar back.

zealous wing
#

we dont pay to use carts here either

#

not that ive seen anywhere anyway

#

though, there is a mall downtown where you have to pay to use the toilets, so, its possible

deft stump
#

Well, if you charge a dollar to rent, ppl will return them.

plucky flax
weary crane
#

nah this is hold

#

hold w tap sprint

plucky flax
#

Well yeah I dont play with hold to sprint

summer prairie
#

Doing it constantly is too much anyway, at least with default binds. Sus if someone plays the whole round doing just that

weary crane
#

might work well with empyric shock

#

id have to swap out wildfire though

summer timber
#

i don’t see why would you do that anyway tbh

#

unless you’re laying into a boss or something

#

but i’m an avid BB DPS user so I wouldn’t be using infernus for that anyway

autumn lark
summer prairie
#

I didn't look very closely, it used the same abhuman mutator, though one number was lowered

plucky flax
#

There's a pop up then a plague ogryn appear

#

Happens like 3 or 4 times in the only game I played

deft stump
plucky flax

#

Might be dead. Lower diffs ppl can't clear bulwarks that fast.

But I don't think we'll see much of it

You get angry ogryns for recovering (stealing)

jovial juniper
#

Because muh rashuns funny

summer prairie
#

it is captains

#

or twins

deft stump
#

If there should be any differences.

summer prairie

it might only change tomorrow

True. We'll find out then.

whats the funny assail build people use to nuke groups of elites?

jovial juniper
#

What do you think

#

(no)

wraith sphinx
#

it was a rhetorical question fatshark

#

there's also a bug that causes you to get stuck blocking with your melee if you push attack too quickly after pressing 1

jovial juniper
#

Yeah

Just swap your weapons

Do I really need to run bubble for every havoc tiers :(

young cliff
#

I run walls and win, bubble is the safety blanket of average reject that doesn't know how to slide or take cover

real granite
#

I like running shriek and Brain burst + lighting staff

#

You see that special? Not anymore

royal totem
#

though if you're using PF you will probs get declined a lot without bubble

real granite
#

:(

royal totem
#

it's like not even a thing of the skill of the players you come across cuz you get both good and bad people in PF

#

one of the big things is bubble is a nice safety buffer when nobody has played with each other before.

#

same with VoC and prayer etc

marble crater
#

Recovering rations is winning, so I must destroy them loregryn

#

No

real granite
#

I hope we get more events like this

#

And hopefully our decisions is impactful (prob won’t)

royal totem
#

it's somewhat i think?

jovial juniper
#

You just gotta be aware of ranged enemies

white valley
#

Bubble also lets you position and huddle in ways you usually can't

#

no need to run away from burgles and flamers anymore

white sky
#

And like Balsco said is very good for trivalizing Burgles

white valley
#

Burgles, flamers, trappers, and even bombers to some extent are affected by bubble

#

Sliding and dodging is cool but bubble lets your team be more aggressive

white sky
#

The only issue i have with bubble is you can defo tell when someone has an overreliance on it

I saw some of the builds in the new guide, some of them really cool but I wonder what weapons you would suggest for the vent meleeker
(Also will give it a second look later, thanks)

I mean if you're going shriek melee psyker isn't Fgs a pretty obvious pick.

#

For both DD and WS?

#

Or something different for the WS one?

young cliff

#

Yeah that works, but I would just stick to DD.

celest valve
#

For FGS I weirdly tend to like laspistol as a mobility tool.

#

But also autogun is love autogun is life.

#

...autogun has weirdly fast equip time which works well with the FGS 0s equip time.

#

(yes fgs is effectively instant to swap to due to its wield attack cancel)

jovial juniper
#

Isn't the Iag the slowest equip time available to Psyker, 0.6 or something

Autogun or autopistol?

Keep in mind that with shriek assail, you don't have the crit chance and other things of SG.

#

Is why bistol or zarona is common picks for it.

#

also funny bleed applying to assail or FGS special

young cliff
#

Zarona paired with assail sounds like a good combo, finesse for the big damage, assail/vent to patch the ammo needed and aoe

#

WS for the bleeding warp slash sounds good since you can spam it quite often for more bleed and fire

strong gulch
#

low WR on FGS can feed shriek

#

you can spam it anyways

#

without WS

#

DD helps assail, gun, and melee a lot

young cliff
#

Indeed, funny that DD empowers assail more than EP

strong gulch
#

but if you want to shriek more then warp siphon but everything else will not hit as hard

#

idk about more

DD just does more that just blitz

#

if you just want to power up assail, EP is the way to go.

#

but that is just blitz

marsh badger
#

and throwing EP assails (RMB in particular) does more damage and cost no peril so it works nicely with SG

I played gun/meleeker all day yesterday and I just discovered there's a talent named warp ghost, can someone do me an eli5 on it?

weary idol
ripe obsidian
cosmic sigil
#

in the context of a melee gun/psyker, how does it play?

#

I am used to manage peril by killing stuff

#

and by the time SG is finished i can use it again

#

so the passive quelling stuff doesn't talk to me

#

does warp ghost remove the need of some other talents? does it complement others?

#

I can at least see kd because of the stam stuff

ripe obsidian
#

Ah, it's a nice talent to have. Everything it does benefits you fairly well, especially with Warp Unbound to remove the threat of headsploding

#

It is not mandatory, but it is nice

blessed be thy coding skill obesefish

No 90% rending tho.

tall solar
#

I wonder if you could make a remotely viable build where your main damage source was the force staff spec bash

#

it has weirdly decent stagger for some reason

#

and melee attack talents apply to it

strong gulch
#

Viable? Lol

The best you're gonna get is charged strikes for bash bonk, and it doesn't benefit from EP now.

tall solar
#

i dont expect this to work

#

i just want it to be usable enough i can use it in heresy and get a stupid character name change

#

i'd settle for malice

The area near first medicae is going to be absolutely hell. A bunch of elites + shooters from stairs.

no viable needed

tall solar
#

fair

#

i only want to be funny useless not annoying useless so i will attempt to make the best of a useless loadout

tall solar
#

like it semi-reliably knocks down a lot of enemies

#

on heavy

#

and flinches them on light

tall solar
#

the best possible staff bonk build

#

would require that you pick smite

#

just for shits n giggles

#

because of that one addon node to smite

#

that makes your melees electrocute

summer prairie
#

The corridor after the elevator is rough too if you get crushers+boss(es)

plucky flax
#

It's bubble time but the bubble die in 6s.

tall solar
#

does the weapon damage stat affect the staff bonk?

#

also

#

if an enemy dies to the electrical DOT from that smit enode

#

does it count as a warp kill

ripe obsidian
summer prairie
#

Yes

long wharf
#

but it warrants testing (though the electrical DoT is very weak)

strong gulch
#

This patch, the DoT from charged strikes has actual ownership and a damage type. That damage type is warp and does proc MM.

#

Previously, that wasn't the case.

you can't kick people when on the MS?

So I doubt he was truly the 'beter psyker'.

Nope.

Also there's no whisper system.

This game's social aspect is so shit.

pine elk
#

sorry how exactly does perils of the warp work?

tall solar
long wharf
#

yes it is

#

unless it got a significant buff in the last couple hotfixes

pine elk
#

So if you're at 100% for a bit without quelling peril in any way you explode?

long wharf
#

it's not damage worth counting on

verbal thistle
tall solar
#

that or it just feels good in comparison to the force staff melee

if peril decreases with any talents you will be saved

and battle med

and wrath

and destiny sub node

anything that reduces peril will save you

wrath?

tall solar
#

because you cant

long wharf
#

that's moot, then, isn't it

merry sinew
#

crystalline will and exploding an elite

long wharf
#

anything that quells peril while you're in the "I'm gonna go hnnnnng" animation will save you

tall solar
long wharf
#

which is memey, yes

tall solar
#

but its funny though

pine elk

long wharf
#

I really want there to be an upgrade node for that to include killing any enemy will save you

tall solar
long wharf
#

it's the Emperor Akbar Jihad build

merry sinew
#

it's the suicide bomber pysker build. spec into crystalline will, go explode an elite and you won't die, repeat.

long wharf
#

problem is the damage is still not high enough to reliably one-shot elites on auric

tall solar
#

peak

spark thistle
#

just spamming max peril explosions

long wharf
#

and killing a specialist doesn't proc it, only elites

pine elk
#

i might run with that

tall solar
#

it should really have been spec

#

not elite

long wharf
#

it really should be both

pine elk
#

mind in motion worth it..?

tall solar
#

it at least saves you from accidental boom if you take it ig

merry sinew
merry sinew
pine elk
#

aha

spark thistle
#

okay now i want to do that but just solely run at bursters and detonate first

pine elk
#

yeah I'll consider working around that

tall solar
#

does the damage stat on your force staff impact the damage of its staff bonk

long wharf
#

staff bonk does 0 damage at all times

tall solar
long wharf
#

wait nevermind

tall solar
#

it does some

long wharf
#

yeah, it's very small

merry sinew
#

you shouldn't really be stuck on quelling animation for long anyway.. should be targeting staying at 80-100% peril the whole game to maximize damage, crit, etc. so you technically only tap quell once or twice if you're at 100% and you should be fighting again.

tall solar
#

if it did ZERO i wouldnt be making a meme build with it

long wharf
#

staves shouldn't even have a melee bonk for a special attack

long wharf
#

no, it isn't

#

hasn't been since release

tall solar
#

bad =! unfunny

#

hitting people with sticks is funny

jovial juniper
#

Psykers can hit people with their staves

#

Even Rogue Trader has that

#

It's a big stick

spark thistle
jovial juniper
#

Hit people with it

long wharf
#

sure, in tabletop and "real life"

#

but in Darktide, they're ranged weapons

tall solar
#

hitting people with sticks is funny

long wharf
#

and that special attack could be something cool and unique per staff

#

a unique way to either spend peril for a warp attack or something

tall solar
#

especially when they go flying onto the floor with unreasonable amounts of momentum given the fact its not a particularly heavy looking stick

jovial juniper
#

😭

that fact that the staff special has stupid high impact value is straight dumb

Bait a teammate to get eaten by bon then use staff heavy to unslug them.

they'll just get eaten on their own

Be sure to do in H40 down a narrow corridor with shooters and forget that bubble and deimos H2 exist.

leaden wind
#

Silly question, with EK heavy attack should you aim at the head of the first target or does it not matter

strong gulch
#

Doesn't matter

white valley
#

cannot target heads, makes no difference where you aim

leaden wind
#

Sweet that’s what I figured lol

long saddle
#

idt you can aim it

long wharf
#

you can aim it, but the attack only ever hits the body

#

the enemy it targets is whichever is closest to your point of aim

#

you use this to select which enemy you hit, works in a crowd when you can see the head of the one you want above the rest

leaden wind
#

Ooo ok ok good to know

strong gulch
#

Ye

jovial juniper
#

Yeah

#

Max height supremacy

strong gulch
#

tarappers and bombers are taller and there's jump tech

#

it's a lil fiddly but mostly reliable

long wharf
#

I really wish the staff would actually hit the limb in your crosshairs

#

let me crit heads with the damn thing

#

bad enough it only really damages up to two enemies

strong gulch
#

still gotcha watch it when thing of similar height are packed tightly together or if something jumps bewteen you and your target if there's a bunch of them

#

sometimes is better to lmb

long wharf
#

I'd rework the surge staff, at this point

#

have number of targets it hits be based on charge time

#

have it hit the first target wherever you're aiming

leaden wind
#

Like 2-4 more guys affected

long wharf
#

no damage reduction on any target hit

leaden wind
#

Also special attack is kinda useless imo, if it did a small bit of electrical damage that would be better

#

It’s an electric staff, I should be able to taze a mfer

long wharf
#

I miss the OG surge staff

leaden wind
#

What did they change to it? (I just started playing a few months ago lol)

strong gulch
#

Surge has always been my fave staff and I don't miss OG surge staff.

#

It used to hit like 6 targets. Wasn't as much damage at the main target now. This was before smite.

#

Was really strong CC.

I'm trying to look for a set of builds with the most unique and lore accurate weapons loadouts as possible for all classes, meaning I want as few repeat weapons as possible.

I don't mind repeating abilities in the ability tree I just want as unique weapon loadouts/combinations as possible.

white valley
#

Psyker, more than other classes, builds around their weapons, so that's a pretty easy ask

strong gulch
#

IDK about lore, but there are builds in the build bonanza pin.

You could cross ref those with the #theorycrafting board.

Oh no do I need to add lore-accurate builds

is there a way to take damage in the psykanium so i can test toughness talents

strong gulch
white valley
#

I mean lore accurate is a whole other can of worms, it's 40k, there are billions of psykers

sinful flume
#

Also I might have to add idgaf about meta builds that include ammo weapons because I only want 100% organic psyker builds

#

As far as "organic" goes anyway

white valley
#

lorewise, psykers do use laspistols pretty often for example

ripe obsidian
#

Or, wait

#

No

#

All peril-quelling nodes

#

As little peril as possible

tall solar
#

just hit people withj the staff

#

speaking of lore, our force staves don't exist afaik

Simply put, there are no inferno force staves, or voidblast staves

just force staves

radiant frigate
#

at least two also exist in owlcat's rogue trader

#

that i have seen so far

#

surely this could not have been a coincidence!!

white valley
#

What a psyker can do with their respective staff depends on the psyker's own mastery of their powers

#

A pyrokinetic psyker would use their force staff to safely channel warpfire as an example

weary idol
#

well

#

yeah

#

obviously

#

the staves are just a way to itemize different psyker disciplines

#

p sure all the lightning shit is labeled biomancy in the game's code

white valley
#

Aye, smite is biomancy

remember when obesefish said "smite is smite" and let the gorillion% extra damage from EP apply to surge staff

that was certainly an experience

it was 2shotting crushers

ok so

#

after a meme build with arbites

i kinda saw that (at least on low difficulties) that block effiency is very fun

#

so i was thinking....deflector and block effiency force sword (or fgs) and scriers

#

for the memes

young cliff
marble crater
#

Only ever worked after switching weapons

weary idol
#

kinetic deflection makes block efficiency an irrelevant stat on psykers

#

+stamina gives far more returns

pallid stump
#

explain that a bit more

#

the second part

pallid stump
young cliff
#

still quite the odd bug, would hate that my staff starts to malfunction in the middle of a fight

weary idol
# pallid stump this

Kinetic Deflection's peril cost when you block something is directly based on the percentage of your stamina that blocking an attack would consume

#

Blocking is a flat stamina cost

pallid stump
#

i see

weary idol
#

More stamina means blocking costs less of your stamina overall

pallid stump
#

so it woulnd't help at all with blocking thingy ma bob?

weary idol
#

Thus Kinetic Deflection generates significantlly less peril

#

It would help it'd just be much weaker than stamina for the same investment

pallid stump
#

well

#

wait the peril one is better or worse?

#

brain not processing well sorry

weary idol
#

IF you are using Kinetic Deflection you should build +Stamina to block more

#

Since it is just better

#

Also just use Kinetic Deflection if you want to block in general

pallid stump
#

aw man

#

here i thought it'd be good

#

i can always NOT use it

#

but if its better using it then whats the point
