uncanny kills crushers.

solid pond
#

not with that attitude

ripe obsidian
#

TL;DR, the surge staff RMB crit is doing like 25% less damage than it should

solid pond
#

just uncanny the voidstrike ball

long wharf
#

it definitely feels weak

solid pond
#

simple as

solid pond
#

also if you have to juice into SG to gib crushers im fine with that

mortal shoal
#

Have a basic melee build. Is it better to spam BB on bosses or heavy swings with the greatsword? Sorry, I know I'm a noob

tulip kettle
#

the only 1 shot on crushers i am ok with is kraks

#

because they are balanced by availability

long wharf
#

FGS heavy swings can do good boss damage if you consistently hit weakspots

#

but risky

patent mango
#

"risky"

solid pond
#

especially if new cuz bad

patent mango
#

i think it has the longest range of any melee

solid pond
#

stop yapping big man

patent mango
#

😨

#

ok then just use bb probably

tulip kettle
#

no, use FGS and learn

solid pond
#

BB with whatever the charge speed on ult use is called is alot safer

#

but FGS better to learn in long term

tulip kettle
#

monstrosities are fine to fight really except burgles

solid pond
#

FGS goat weapon

mortal shoal
#

BB takes so long, even with scriers gaze buffs, teammates already have em down... figure sword might be better

tulip kettle
#

especially on their own

tulip kettle
#

it is better

solid pond
patent mango
#

burgles are annoying

tulip kettle
#

is a demonhost a monstrosity?

#

and yes burgles are annoying

#

but they love backshots.

mortal shoal
#

Many thanks!!!

solid pond
#

if its not a monstrosity what would it be?

patent mango
#

i have to dodge slide to properly deal with the puke

marble crater
patent mango
#

otherwise guh

long wharf
#

of course it is

royal totem
#

Catmirsl likes killing demonhosts

solid pond
#

perhaps

hearty wolf
#

I personally think Chaos Spawns are pretty ass

ripe obsidian
#

Give Voidstrike 150% ADMs on carapace.

hearty wolf
#

Queue Six getting overheaded 19 times in a row

ripe obsidian
ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

yeah they are fine if they arent being broken

patent mango
#

isnt the overhead the one u want to loop dodge

hearty wolf
#

In 1v1 they're the most interactive

tulip kettle
#

yes, but as we saw last night

hearty wolf
#

but otherwise you're just looping them trying to find room

tulip kettle
#

sometimes they bug out and chain the overhead 19 times in a row with 0 downtime

ripe obsidian
patent mango
#

lmao

kind jay
#

are speed stims bugged rn? they last the entire match lmao

patent mango
#

event

solid pond
#

event

tulip kettle
#

its not a bug its the event

kind jay
#

oh

tulip kettle
#

and only in event games

solid pond
#

imagine if reds lasted whole match

#

maybe they do

patent mango
#

i thought we had the different buff though?

tulip kettle
#

all stims give perm buffs

kind jay
#

i can't read disregard me

solid pond
#

oh my

#

time to speedrun my work so I can warcrime some auric bosses

ripe obsidian
solid pond
#

I just forget where the thing is to read it after I see it the first time

#

so I don't go back and read it

ripe obsidian
#

Ignoring the fact that we're protected by plot armor, how powerful is the player Psyker?

#

And how powerful is Sefoni?

solid pond
#

ive heard they're not too weak, but also not that powerful psyker wise

#

needing staves is kinda low? but the bubbles I think are kinda a high thing

marble crater
#

All I know is that Sefoni is surely stronger than the player psyker

solid pond
#

pure energy creation IIRC is relatively easy, so the fire and lightning related things are meh

royal totem
#

Sedoni is...somewhat high i think

solid pond
#

sefoni is nuts though

#

she has admitted to changing the memory of the entire crew on multiple occasions lol

royal totem
#

Alpha or something? Or was it beta?

solid pond
#

I wonder what her purpose is really on the ship though, or if all ships have something similar to her, for training stuff

#

cuz she's not the astropath

#

(? might not be the ones on ships)

#

and I don't think she is creating the Gellar field

ripe obsidian
#

Is Sefoni part of the Trader's crew or the inquisition?

solid pond
#

inquisition apparently

#

serving grendyl specifically

ripe obsidian
#

So Psyker things

white valley
ripe obsidian
#

Isn't Grendyl also hinted to be the Trader's grandfather?

white valley
#

Sefoni is clearly just a telepath specialist, she's probably not very capable in combat

solid pond
white valley
#

Not all psykers are good in combat, even if they are "powerful" psychically

solid pond
#

depends what you define as combat

ripe obsidian
#

Then stab 'em

solid pond
#

or just wipe their mind

#

power word vegetable

white valley
#

telepath powers are more fickle afaik

tulip kettle
#

on the scla of psyker we are right near the bottom

white valley
#

as in, you can resist them via force of will

tulip kettle
#

theta level

solid pond
#

if you take darktides setting as lore, which in most part it is, she is capable of rewriting personalities to basically be different people lol

white valley
#

in comparison to something like warpfire, which you can't exactly resist via your willpower

solid pond
#

enough stacks of warpfire on Khorne and he dies too

#

skill issue

tulip kettle
#

alpha level psykers can destroy planets

ripe obsidian
solid pond
#

we should get a blank as a class

#

just kills the psyker on mission start

white valley
#

psykers don't die from being near a blank

solid pond
#

depends on the blank

white valley
#

well, sure

#

depends on the psyker too

#

but blanks are rare af because even blunts despise them

solid pond
#

and even rarer over that because of the training they then have to go through lol

#

just hug the daemonhost

pale prairie
#

It’s gonna be skitarii

#

Or ratling

#

🤞

tulip kettle
#

The Imperium measures and records the psionic activity and power level of psychic individuals through a rating system called The Assignment. Comprised of a twenty-four point scale, The Assignment simplifies the comparison of psykers to aid Imperial authorities in recognizing possible threats.[1]

white valley
#

fatshark has said no more characters with a different POV

pale prairie
white valley
pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

our psykers are sub delta level, approximately theta level

#

and i do think they wnt do ratling

#

because its impossible to balance for map design when ogryn already exists

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

why would you hope for ratlings

#

theyre gross and annoying

solid pond
#

useless for melee

pale prairie
#

I dunno cause they would be different

solid pond
#

and are rats

#

man sized rats dont exist

pale prairie
#

But they speak-talk funny yes yes

tulip kettle
#

unfortunately not

#

they arent skaven

pale prairie
thorn cedar
#

what if its two ratlings, one stacked on top of the other

solid pond
#

they should add skaven to darktide

thorn cedar
#

then you dont gotta change pov

pale prairie
#

Oh shit

#

Ratlings are halflings?!? TIL

tulip kettle
#

they are indeed

pale prairie
#

That’s fucked up

tulip kettle
#

hairy feet and all

thorn cedar
#

if it were me

pale prairie
#

The empire is built on slurs

thorn cedar
#

the new class would be

#

a perfect tie in from vermintide

#

rasknitt himself

tulip kettle
#

if you say cat people i swear to god

thorn cedar
#

after getting smited by the ubersreik five (or four? it doesnt matter) he is transported instantly into the far future

solid pond
pale prairie
#

Hmmm yeah I really can’t think of an interesting canon class that would make sense

thorn cedar
#

i just told you, its rasknitt

tulip kettle
#

its skitarii

#

it fits with the lore of both the universe and the ship

#

you would think i would be excited

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

but i know theyre just gonna butcher it, so im not

thorn cedar
#

idk arby landed very fucken solidly

solid pond
thorn cedar
#

balance was in question but like, mechanically the class was very sound

pale prairie
solid pond
#

to be fair, them doing too much damage is also in character

thorn cedar
#

nah very separate

pale prairie
#

The mechanics were “big numbah”

tulip kettle
#

skitarii are cool because theyre devout followers of the machine cult, that maintain their autonomy but can be taken complete control of by the arch-magos they serve

#

idk how that would translate into gameplay

solid pond
#

an ult is just giving them aimbot as the magos takes control

tulip kettle
#

that would actually be fitting

thorn cedar
#

every minute there's a 50% chance that a console player takes control

solid pond
tulip kettle
#

i just dont see how its not gonna be an amalgamation of other classes

#

for example executiuoners stance / EO / DD effects

solid pond
#

it can have new things while also having things from other classes

#

arbites has things from other classes

#

still does its own thing

thorn cedar
#

if it feels different then im sold, thats all i need tbh

tulip kettle
#

the other thing is, they suck at close combat traditionally

solid pond
#

the

tulip kettle
#

NOW

solid pond
#

fucking

#

drip

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

make it sicarians

#

and im 100% sold

pale prairie
#

I almost wonder if it should be some kind of full support/healer but there really isn’t a role for that in this game

solid pond
#

what in the damn

tulip kettle
#

torso still human

pale prairie
tulip kettle
#

its allowed

tulip kettle
#

chordclaws would be fucking cooool

solid pond
#

he just looks like he'd be so fast

tulip kettle
#

that is indeed their thing

#

they also emit disruptive frequencies

solid pond
#

like, mirrors edge but faster but also more impaling people with your speed rather than parkour

tulip kettle
#

make their enemies blind and deaf and their heads explode and shit

tulip kettle
#

imagine murder spiders with LRAD

kind jay
#

in order to keep game balance he runs on Windows ME

tulip kettle
#

i just changed my mind

#

i want datasmiths with kastellans

graceful arch

Time to grind havoc agian

pale prairie
#

Look what fatshark has done to you

graceful arch
#

i just want rot armor gon

#

gone*

solid pond
#

I want rotten armour and final toll

#

ram it in there

restive stag
#

inferno pathing is so frustrating

royal totem
#

Rot armor, and final toll. and stims all at once. how about that :3

white valley
restive stag
#

it frustrates me

royal totem
#

why? can't get the talents you want or something?

restive stag
#

ye

white valley
#

how lol

restive stag
#

coz i dont like it?

royal totem
#

what don't you like about it? O.O

leaden wind
#

I’m starting an inferno staff build, in general I’m guessing cloud radius is more important then warp resistance? Both have everything 80 except one is 60 warp and the other is 60 cloud radius.

restive stag
royal totem
#

everything is more important than warp resistance

leaden wind
#

Bet makes sense

Gah, I am really enjoying chainaxe on psyker but pushing poxbursters with it sucks balls

strong gulch
modest perch
#

mine has 1 warp res chadgryn

long wharf
#

I have a FGS with 30-ish WR

#

need to craft a FS with dumped WR

bold flint
#

any zappy staff users having trouble with their charge attack getting stuck sometimes

long wharf
#

interacting with rations can interfere with the input logic

strong gulch
#

Ye but on other staves and even melee too.

#

Was a problem before rashuns event.

#

Guess event makes it worse.

bold flint
#

happens to me with the tac axe before patch too

long wharf
#

I sometimes get stuck being unable to manually switch to melee via hitting the melee weapon button

#

quick swap works, but it's not what I'm used to

ripe obsidian
ripe obsidian
fiery stratus
marble crater
#

It's because of the event, whenever I block or charge and then destroy rushuns I get stuck

royal totem
white valley
#

Why do force sword specials do nothing to captains

#

to void shields I mean

long wharf
#

they're a trap

white valley
#

how come chain weapons tear through that shit but force weapons tickle

long wharf
#

don't use the special

white valley
#

I know

marble crater
#

Deimos and Obscurus should, because they are several hits

white valley
#

they don't though, the damage is pathetic

rough gale
#

Because warp not good for armor

marble crater
#

I still use Deimos specials, because it's funny

royal totem
#

chain weapons tear through shields? 😮

white valley
marble crater
#

Reconlas with infernus is also funny to dump into captain shields

rough gale
#

True

rough gale
royal totem
#

huh i didn't know that.

solid pond
rough gale
solid pond
#

infernus is not good for shield lol

rough gale
#

Not good but funny

white valley
#

but unfortunately twice now I have been killed by poxbursters because chaxe sucks at pushing

solid pond
#

cuz im pretty sure the actual push is pretty good

white valley
#

weapons like duelling sword, combat blade, and FS can double push

strong gulch

That's are skill issue and part "me ni likey".

sinful peak

#

I want to give a try shotgun Psyker. What blessings best and which shotgun?

white valley
strong gulch
#

the dodge away is short enough be risky with bursters

white valley
#

maybe I should use chainsword instead

#

better pushes, better dodges, and I can slot rev it up I guess

marble crater
solid pond
#

lol

rough gale
#

Anyone played shotgun Psyker after the update?

white valley
#

but goddamn does chainaxe feel fun with trauma

strong gulch
#

ye

white valley
#

"Oh a crusher on the floor let me just saw that real quick aaaand he's dead"

strong gulch
#

i like chainaxe with trauma too

white valley
#

It also helps with boss damage since trauma has abysmal dogshit boss damage

strong gulch
#

maybe anticipation with chainaxe

#

just try to spam dodge and still have a good one left

white valley
#

I'll just try chainsword

#

it's a bit less carapace damage but trauma doesn't really struggle with that tbh

#

as in, crushers aren't that threatening

#

I'm mostly using chaxe to delete mutants, contribute to bosses, especially captains, and occasionally killing an elite straggler

#

actually, does anyone know how the modifiers on a chain weapon affect the revved attacks?

thorn cedar
#

shredder is the only mod that matters

#

vis a vis the rev attack

white valley
#

so finesse and pen do fuck all?

fiery stratus
thorn cedar
# fiery stratus

but only at 1am and only in the first minute after your body sinks into that restful state where you can feel the sleep coming

thorn cedar
#

i just scream for the emperor and saw a fucker

white valley
#

I'm only asking because if the damage modifier doesn't impact it, maybe I could dump that instead for slightly better mobility

fiery stratus
rigid sky
#

Is perfectionist+cruel fortune sensible for vraks 5 now?

strong gulch
#

Ye

#

Marked target are much easier to get to now.

#

You can keep stacks when hitting a monster too.

#

So the two main flavors are perfectionism + cruel fortune or just lingering.

#

With lower density of valid targets, I tend to float between 9 to 15 DD stacks in damnation. The it jumps quickly in high density.

#

I am not an amazing meleeker / gunker.

royal totem
#

i keep thinking about playing some psyker casually

#

but i don't think i'm very good at it

rigid sky
#

On auric event it feels pretty easy to stay consistantly above 25 outside of elevators

#

uh

#

above 15

solid pond
#

above 25

royal totem

damn. Krags broke game and got to more than 25 stacks 😮

In news unrelated to Darktide, I have hit 700 ELO in chess. This is not a high ELO, but I started at like 400 less than a month ago, so it is a major improvement

bold flint

just psyker things

ripe obsidian
#

A real Psyker would just read their opponent's mind and win

Delicious, delicious souls

no idea what that means

The trailer says "Praise the Omnissiah" or something like that instead of "For the Emperor"

also mine is just naturally that wide, isnt yours?

you might need to consult a medical professional

Just fully consecrated this staff, what does the little magnifying glass mean on the blessing?

long wharf
#

nothing important now

#

I think it's a blessing you don't normally have access to

leaden wind
#

Oh ok yea I don’t have lvl 4 blessing unlocked

#

Never seen that before

long wharf
#

it matters a lot less nowadays

#

it's an artifact from before we unlocked blessings via masteries

leaden wind
#

For the before times?!?

#

Wooooaaahhhhh

#

Also should I just swap that blessing for blaze away? Only lvl 2 tho

long wharf
#

sits in rocking chair on the porch y'see, back in my day, we had to beg Hadron to give us the blessings we wanted

#

twas real common for a weapon to be permanently bricked and worthless after spending currency to upgrade it

leaden wind
#

Jeez that sounds terrible

long wharf
#

thousand yard stare intensifies

strong gulch
#

Finally rolling T4 surge (it was only T4) on VS with the other BiS blessing and good stats. So you never surrender the weapon and have to live with the magnifying glass.

long wharf
#

when the game released, Hadron's UI said "Crafting Coming Soon"

#

that's a fact

How did you survive such terrible times grandpa?

ah, the pseudo-excitement watching the clock for when shops rolled over, especially Sour Milks

strong gulch
#

yes

long wharf
#

I used to check the shop inventories on my phone

#

just to make sure I wasn't missing out on a unicorn

#

in all seriousness, Sour Milk is absolutely pointless

#

he needs to be a source of free Aquilas

#

gimme 5 Aquilas per contract, I'll make damn sure I do it every week on every character

strong gulch
#

Melk is only good for curios or if you have a new character.

long wharf
#

yeah, he is good for curios

rain wren
#

Cheerios

long wharf
#

those too

strong gulch
#

we should just be able to buy curios like weapons tho

long wharf
#

we should be able to craft curios

leaden wind
#

Yea when I first started my psyker build I got my EK from him and that was it lol

rain wren
strong gulch
#

crafting goes into buying

long wharf
#

enough with this garbage, the main stat on a curio is a blessing

#

so, let us just craft what we want already

strong gulch
#

if we are going with the same way weapons worth.

#

work

rain wren
#

I end up finding the curios in the shit shop before melk

strong gulch
#

I'd prefer to just craft whatever level of cruio. If I want +1 stam or 21 health. Just let me.

Hey psyker players. Can one of y’all provide me with the strongest, most effortless to play build? Preferably with a variant that I can use for relatively pain free leveling. I’ve tried homebrewing my own builds in this game but they’ve kinda sucked so I would like to just use the meta please.

long wharf
#

yep

#

meta != effortless

rain wren
#

You know they should really upgrade melk and add cosmetics

long wharf
#

unless you're throwing assail shards on heresy-, nothing the psyker does well is "effortless"

rancid jasper
strong gulch
rain wren
#

So I can use the infinite tokens I get from him

sleek lynx
long wharf
#

you want effortless?

#

all Smite all day

sleek lynx
#

Ok what perks for that?

#

And weapons?

strong gulch
#

As a warning. If you smite constantly, you're likely to get people lobby dodging you or even blocking you.

rain wren
#

Smite away

#

Lol

sleek lynx
#

They keep melee users off of me while I snipe the range guys for them

strong gulch
#

That's fine to like or appreciate having it on the team.

Most do not.

#

Most who post on forums or here.

#

at least

restive stag
#

i appreciate skilled usage of smite

strong gulch
#

ye

sleek lynx
#

Well those people that post on forums or discord communities are a tiny minority of a community at large

strong gulch
#

constant uneneding use of it I do not like at all

restive stag
#

yup, same

sleek lynx
#

Well if smite spam makes runs go as smoothly as my shout spam plasma vet I’m gonna use it

strong gulch
#

using smite does not automatically mean smyker

ripe obsidian
thorn cedar
#

yea

strong gulch
#

The problem is constantly using it to where others don't get to play the game.

#

Keeping enemies spread out.

#

Clustering them in bad positions.

#

The smyker not learning how to dodge at all.

restive stag
#

yeah, keeping enemies spread, disallowing things like dodge passives to be procced, not doing anything against big targets damage wise
it leads to very poor situations where things are handled with extremely inefficiency if at all

sleek lynx
#

Well if it’s suboptimal I won’t do it

#

I can learn an optimal playstyle

restive stag
#

that's good ye

sleek lynx
#

I learned melee Ogryn as a ranged vet this shouldn’t be too hard

#

Compared to that shit

digital elbow
#

is the dump stat on inferno staff damage like how it is with the zealot flamethrower?

verbal thistle
#

it is warp res for multiple reasons

restive stag
#

ye

digital elbow
#

oh then what’s the one psyker staff that doesn’t have warp res as dump, if any

verbal thistle
#

voidSTRIKE

#

which is blast radius

restive stag
#

voidstrike ye

verbal thistle
#

only warp weapon that is non warp res dump

sleek lynx
#

I’ve heard inferno staff is arguably the strongest thing in the game. Is that true?

verbal thistle
#

it scales into density

#

since the game scales difficulty with hp and amount of enemies

#

its the best weapon the higher the difficulty

sleek lynx
#

Is it better overall than plasma gun?

#

Also mastery levels are by account and not character??? Fuck yea I have dueling sword maxed on psyker already lol

verbal thistle
#

they different things, you cant compare them

#

plasma is sustained ranged dps, better single target then horde clear

#

firestaff is sustained close range horde clear

sleek lynx
#

Plasma does horde clear pretty well too

long wharf
#

no it doesn't

sleek lynx

#

Personally, I like trauma staff for explosion animations and watching body parts fly everywhere.

#

But inferno will just burn down anything. Even things like scab rager patrols become easier to handle with it.

#

Especially if you lean into the soul blaze build with it

sleek lynx
#

Well if inferno is the best that will be my end goal to work towards

restive stag
#

it takes some time but the only thing it really won't handle under any circumstances is crushers

ornate hamlet
sleek lynx
restive stag
#

although you have to not die in the time it takes to kill stuff anyways so

ornate hamlet
sleek lynx
#

Or actually I could just take dueling sword for that

#

I do have it maxed already from vet lol

ornate hamlet
#

That too, force great sword works wonders as well

restive stag
#

deimos can also work

#

s'what i run, deflector is a great boon to have when i gut my survivability for the sake of big fire

sleek lynx
#

I would kinda prefer to use a class’ signature weapons in a build. Like I run plasma+shovel on vet so force greatsword+inferno staff sounds neat

#

Plus I’ve seen force greatsword has the big Moonlight greatsword wave which I like

strong gulch
#

DS used to be psyker only.

#

DS parry generates peril on psyker.

#

so there is something unique to it at least

royal totem
#

so today my second arb hit 30

ornate hamlet
sleek lynx
#

I wish weapons were also account wide so I could just mule my groll dueling sword from my vet

strong gulch
#

FGS and inferno are fine together but of the melees that are good or better against crusher, it has the most overlap.

Melee on inferno need to be decent against crushers and preferably have good mobility and access to uncanny strike. FGS does not meet all of those. It's still fine tho.

sleek lynx
#

Guess I can just make a separate build around the greatsword

weary idol
#

just upgrade a dueling sword to max level

sleek lynx
#

How’s the normal force sword?

weary idol
#

arguably better than dueling sword in a lot of ways

#

you don't get the privileged dodge profile, but you get better utility blessings, and better damage blessings

strong gulch
#

Obscurus is good
deimos is good
illisi needs a buff (is also horde clear and not good against crushers)

royal totem
#

it depends how you're using it and against what. that's all.

sleek lynx
pallid stump
#

fellas would you say these skills are mandatory on psyker?

#

just curious

strong gulch
pallid stump
#

hmm

#

why not?

strong gulch
#

depending on the build, PC is dropable

pallid stump
#

i am using an inferno staff so

ripe obsidian
strong gulch
#

You already have better quelling talents or peril mitigation

ripe obsidian
#

Battle Meditation is never mandatory

pallid stump
#

i see

royal totem
#

isn't ER better than BM? not 100% sure though

ripe obsidian
#

Battle Meditation is gambling. It makes it hard to keep peril at a good place.

pallid stump
#

well i dont have enough points to get EP and WG so

ripe obsidian
strong gulch
#

If you have a spare point, you probably have something better to take.

royal totem
#

i really like quietude these days

strong gulch
#

talents depend on weapons

pallid stump
#

not sure myself on what to get here

strong gulch
#

also plenty of builds in the builds pin

pallid stump
#

i get for the inferno staff the soulblaze perks

pallid stump
strong gulch
#

with reasons why things are taken for that build

pallid stump
#

i use the pinned builds in some cases

strong gulch
#

I'm not saying to copy the builds and not think about choices.

I'm more saying there are reasons listed they were listed.

#

also what talents do

#

more detailed explanations about talents in the kuli guid

#

guide

ripe obsidian
#

To help you customize

sleek lynx
#

Does inferno staff not work well with smite? None of the builds in the pinned guide use it over the brain burst

strong gulch
#

too much overlap

sleek lynx
#

Both close range horde clear I take it

royal totem
#

my personal opinion is smite objectively doesn't make any build better.

strong gulch
#

Inferno and smite are both midrange and don't deal with crushers well.

#

BB + KF gives range and helps snowball SB with PC, wildfire, and shriek that also feed IFR (in fire reborn) and souldrinker.

#

also conrats on red name

ripe obsidian
#

Inferno LMB also staggers anything smaller than an Ogryn

strong gulch
#

and rmb can supress shooters

ripe obsidian
#

Doesn't LMB do that as well?

strong gulch
#

not shotgunners tho

ripe obsidian
#

I would need to check

strong gulch
royal totem
strong gulch
#

not sure exactly what happens

but they will gun you down with inferno RMB

They either shoot you before a threshold is met or RMB inferno just can not do that on shotgunners well

pallid stump
#

@ripe obsidian let me ask you something if possible, with voidstrike staff you normally take cleave based on peril, is it to help horde clear with melee?

restive stag
ripe obsidian
#

Is quite bad

pallid stump
#

oh, gotcha

ripe obsidian
#

It also boosts Assail significantly

#

And melee

pallid stump
#

also, is it recomended i take true aim off, to also get warp ghost or not?

#

well since you mentioned assail i think i get why you have it now

#

i forgot assail was there lol

ripe obsidian
#

True Aim feels more necessary to me on VS, since Surge procs are a lot of your damage

restive stag
#

yeah i would agree

pallid stump
#

gotcha

#

is there any way to switch EP for something else? the -30% toughness replenished is scary for me?

#

or is it not that bad?

ripe obsidian
#

You can drop it if you want. It's helpful but not necessary

#

The toughness loss isn't too bad imo

restive stag
#

i feel it but i don't eel it so much i feel like my survivability is gutted

pallid stump
#

ill give it a try once i can

ripe obsidian
#

Voidstrike gets tons of toughness from DD, too

pallid stump
#

ah gotcha

ripe obsidian
#

So mettle, souldrinker, soulstealer, DD...

pallid stump
#

understood

#

now i just wonder what weapons to use with gun psyker

prime elk
#

recon, vraks, SAP are common picks

#

agri is good too

#

and DB can work as well

deft stump
prime elk
#

am i the only one that finds vraks recoil ok?

#

lol

#

it's like purely vertical

deft stump
#

This is inf auto, right?

modest perch
prime elk
prime elk
modest perch
leaden wind
#

I’ve done it folks, rank 30 psyker. Now, I can finally have fun

deft stump
prime elk
#

oh controller

#

that's fair then

deft stump
#

And exe stance did not help.

tulip kettle
#

Yeah it has poor accuracy and spread anyway

prime elk
#

ES makes vraks much easier to use

tulip kettle
#

So pulling down doesn't help at longer ranges

prime elk
#

but in general it's def more of a cqc tool

tulip kettle
#

Up close bossdeleter3000

deft stump
#

Boss reaches a certain point, damage triples.

#

Can't hit bomber half the map away even with exestance.

cloud ridge
#

what mk for the greatsword?

deft stump
#

Mk6 a tiny bit better.

#

Easier to use the strongest attack so better dps.

#

But is tiny enough, doesn't matter.

royal totem
#

🤔

deft stump
royal totem
#

ah

cloud ridge
#

ill try the h20 thank you

deft stump
#

H1 is no slouch as well.

#

Just is overhead so may be more annoying to hit certain things.

cloud ridge
#

yeah im having problem with ratlings

tulip kettle
#

H2 means the second heavy, the stab. Its extremely powerful and chains easily, unlike the stab on the MK8

#

wuhhh

cloud ridge
#

i think kruber keeps messing with me idk

deft stump
#

Also think there's gonna be inf vets till it changes to angy oggies again.

#

I see why ppl angy no ammo cos of ppl grabbing all the ammo.

solid pond
#

isn't the current thing increasing ammo?

#

I had like 1.1k rounds in a las pistol

#

lol

deft stump
solid pond
#

its auric

deft stump
#

Even at white.

#

I saw some zealot in a run hit red.

#

They still refused to give a tin to said zealot.

rain wren
#

Lol now instead of stim hogging it's ammo?

solid pond
#

even I was gremlining some ammo because I have been awake a little too long and there was still bags and tins sitting everywhere

#

auric just force feeds you ammo

deft stump
#

I just ping them in hopes they can gas to me to take first.

rain wren
#

How is the difficulty now without the angry ogryns?

solid pond
#

good with either modifier change honestly

#

been fun

deft stump
#

Vraks, can still survive and VIc is just hilariously ammo effi.

pallid stump
#

im in

#

problem is ammo...

royal totem
#

a lot easier than angy oggys imo

deft stump
rain wren
#

I found the ogryn one really fun made me feel like a hackie sack

royal totem
#

the oggys was fine. i didn't enjoy the 7 mutants

deft stump
#

Only reason is harder is cos inferno on some maps is budget lights out.

#

I only see through exe stance.

rain wren
#

Lol whole match I was going wee. Army of mutants throwing me

deft stump
#

Oggies is... I saw 14 crushers on heresy.

#

At once.

rain wren
#

Oh yeah they did spawn the mutants and crushers like horde

deft stump
#

I was trying to solo, 14 crushers. Then csptain, then BoN shows up and like, WTFF is this?

royal totem
#

Karien

#

it's budget havoc

rain wren
#

On damnation they never stopped spawning I was left alive plenty of times and had to fight through them to go to rescue. Felt like everytime I killed one 3 popped in it's place

deft stump
#

Somehow, this is worse.

#

Spawnrate wise.

rain wren
#

Oh worse than ogryn?

deft stump
#

No, angy oggy mod.

#

Is worse than sub-10 havoc.

#

Heck worse than up to 14~.

#

And talking only heresy diff.

rain wren
#

Oh yes the angry ogryns were spawning a lot even the lower difficulties felt like the original auric Maelstrom was easier

royal totem
#

i would actually say

#

it's worse than havoc 20

deft stump
#

I had a few tries at soloing the angy oggy mod.

royal totem
#

but it does depend a bit on exactly which havoc 20 lul. but havoc 20 doesn't send me 7 fucking mutants in a train

deft stump
#

I think inferno might be easier to try solo.

royal totem
#

Karien is becoming a soloer? 😮

deft stump
#

If I weren't shade blind and can barely make out the map outside of exe stance.

deft stump
royal totem
#

also, i remember the havoc 4 where Karien had to desperately try to keep me from dying

deft stump
#

You know 3 ping to 300 ping is a massive diff.

royal totem
#

i was tired so every single trapper net hit me

deft stump
#

I go from being able to chain mutie headstabs to needing half a room of space just to barely dodge one.

tulip kettle
#

is going well

deft stump
#

High ping pubs just feel awful.

#

Nobody watches your back and 300 ping makes things harder.

royal totem
#

i rely on Karien to free me from nets :3

tulip kettle
#

random mid join in the screenshot

#

we diealmost immediately after when captain bug downs me

deft stump
#

They won't even shoot a fire bomber when tagged or highlighted by ETP exe stance.

tulip kettle
#

awesome game

deft stump
#

And fighting vraks recoil and 300 ping gamble on shots hitting sucks.

#

And tell me, how many people want to play 200+ ping?

royal totem
#

nobody lmao

potent echo
#

Should play Asia servers and roll the dice with the pubs here KEKW_ogryn

deft stump
#

Why do you think I get to SOLO in a public game?

#

I don't mod, remember?

#

All those solos are because NOBODY was playing on the APAC Central server.

#

Other than me.

royal totem
#

let's see what my ping would be on that server

deft stump
#

And yes, they are LIVE missions. It's just dead server.

royal totem
#

Asia and pacific center?

deft stump
#

Yeah.

royal totem
#

201 ping for me

deft stump
#

See, 200+.

#

I know cos Chaos said 240.

royal totem
#

aye

#

i should try a game there someday just to see what happens

deft stump
#

Just predodge stuff.

#

All I can say.

royal totem
#

also, i have a new trick to stop myself from having to clutch in damnation

#

it's called "stop my teammates from getting themselves killed"

deft stump
willow kernel
#

wheres the fun in that? aura farm while they get bonked by a crusher

royal totem
#

I dun like clutching

deft stump
#

Neither do I.

royal totem
deft stump
#

I do it because I have to try at times.

deft stump
#

Recon and Vraks vet.

royal totem
#

I pretty much only arb now

#

Though...with 3 stam curios

deft stump
#

By that, I mean a horde of them and my team is in rescue.

tulip kettle
#

me "babysitting" the smyker

#

lvl 900, they should know better

deft stump
tulip kettle
#

indeed. i did also ask them nicely to stop first

willow kernel
#

chat what is smyking

tulip kettle
#

what that guy is doing

#

just pressing smite the whole game

deft stump
#

I mean, if you just smite a crusher blob, sure, I guess. But that was smite as a primary.

willow kernel
#

roleplaying as emperor palpatine

potent echo
deft stump
royal totem
#

it only really takes like 1 or a few to break my toughness ._.

deft stump
royal totem
#

enough mini-gunners (the small little guys that pew pew and can melee) to break my toughness

#

i know ._. clutching can be scary

deft stump
#

For some, is easily in their nature... For others, ramping panic sets in.

royal totem
#

i think it depends on the scenario

#

if there's a bunch of bombers and tox gas i can panic too ._.

#

or multiple bosses etc

willow kernel
#

multiple bosses is so daunting to me idk why

#

their aura scares me

royal totem
#

also depends which bosses lmao

#

burgles are actually pretty annoying

willow kernel
#

getting vomited on by a mega slug isnt fun

ornate hamlet
#

Worst for me are spawns….their multiple grabs and tossing people around can ruin a run pretty quick if you get caught in a really bad spot where you have no room to kite

restive stag
#

burgles when i activate the gay baby jail (bubble)

ornate hamlet
#

I don’t mind burgles…they’re more irritating than deadly I find.

royal totem
#

when you have to solo burgles though to not get a ton of corruption have to kite it long distances

#

i mentioned earlier i'm an arbites so i have no bubble

#

waiting for new class to have a talent tree thats so good that all 5 current classes need a re-re-rework

royal totem
#

idk what the hell i'd want out of a new class though

#

i guess a class that can set up like turrets or something would be cool

sleek lynx
#

Which force sword pattern did y’all say was best again?

strong gulch
#

For inferno, deimos or obscurus.

#

Deimos is more simple and has more CC.

Obscurus can be more aggressive but has less CC. Is less simple to use.

tulip kettle

sleek lynx
#

What about after charging it? Just use the normal attack?

tulip kettle
#

never charge it

#

ever

sleek lynx
#

Huh

#

Odd

royal totem
#

but charging it makes it look cool

tulip kettle
#

not odd if you understand the mechanics

sleek lynx
#

I’m just used to power sword

tulip kettle
#

the only reason to charge it is to build peril, in which case you quick swap to ranged and back

#

the main thing with deimos

craggy patrol
#

is there a summary for the skill tree change or do I actually need to read it

tulip kettle
#

is its good vs crushers with light 1 - heavy 2 loop

#

and you can "push attack" with it to stagger everything except bosses and gain a stack of uncanny strike

#

which interacts with your soulblaze DoT

ripe obsidian
#

I AM FREE

#

OF ASCENSION RISER

tulip kettle
#

hells yeah brother

sleek lynx

The stagger on the push attack and the heavies is pretty nice

tulip kettle

its very good.

is there a diff for the skill tree

erm, kind of

why do I have to mouse over nodes

clearly i need Six to carry me lmao

tulip kettle
#

autoblock?

as in, it automatically blocks attacks for you?

craggy patrol
#

you can just send packets that say you blocked every attack

tulip kettle
#

because thats obviously cheating

#

lol

#

gtfo dude

craggy patrol
#

you don't even need to sync gamestate or animation, the server just trusts you

tulip kettle
#

cool

#

its a non competetive pve game

cheating is for literal losers

craggy patrol
#

darktide uses gpl code that they changed without honoring the license so its ok

nobody cares

I mean sometimes the bots are better than actual people

deft stump

I know.

rain wren
#

Lol they will literally die to pick you up

deft stump
#

Not really, sometimes they keep trying to get to the shooter/gunner/reaper horde to hit them.

sometimes the bots are better frontliners

And leave you netted till wipe.

i wish i had the clip where

I have seen them tank DHs forever...

i watched as a bot held 3 crushers 2 bulwarks

#

1 horde

deft stump
#

And I have seen them die in a fraction of a sec.

languid pine
#

but i clipped it too late

deft stump
#

Honestly, if they gave bots at least scaled weapons...

#

Just give them maxed out weapons.

tulip kettle

the bots have hardcoded stagger on their blocks

#

they can stagger blue ragers by pushing them

That is true
