#

fair. i hope so too

zealous wing
#

if its underpowered, or overpowered, honestly either can be fun, long as it technically functions

royal totem
#

Yeah

#

Im def gonna havoc it

zealous wing
#

ok new scum clip, gives a lil hope back

#

at LEAST they've got a special target weapon

#

so, not too weak to do anything helpful

#

granted theres a high chance thats a lower difficulty but, still

long wharf
#

the dual-wielding-magnums into a horde and not visibly thinning it wasn't impressive

#

but I'm all for pulling out rocket launchers

lone ravine
#

The trailers aren’t usually impressive since they’re certified sedition games

long wharf
#

I'm not someone that specifically cares about dual wielding

#

I don't play Darktide to click my mouse buttons as fast as I can

zealous wing
#

it looked auto so maybe its a hold to fire

long wharf
#

I hope so

zealous wing
long wharf
#

my joints hurt just thinking about that

#

either way, this'll be the first Darktide content I don't pay for the premium package

zealous wing
#

im still debating it, but i do suppose it depends how happy i am with the base cosmetics, the deluxe doesnt have much that interests me

long wharf
#

frankly, I don't like the look of "crazy hive gangers" at all

zealous wing
#

the mask i do like, and maybe the coat, but im iffy on it

long wharf
#

it's really not my thing

royal totem
#

it might not even be 30 gameplay though

#

so like it might not be a proper reflection

long wharf
#

the devs are notoriously bad at their own game

#

and don't do any testing above Malice

royal totem
#

and the devs probably have shit aim so like

#

even if you're shooting a horde if your aim is shit

#

the stats on the gun are completely wrong or such

#

it's not really an "accurate" reflection

indigo plank
#

Prolly gonna pick up the deluxe because I know without any good hats or hoods I’ll be annoyed if my Scum has to wear the same fucking bob cut every fem character has had since launch lol

modest perch
#

who knows if itll be any good. the bfg slash looked super underwhelming in the previews or whatever but wound up being awesome

royal totem
#

i think its really just a wait and see

indigo plank
#

Crowbar looks fun

royal totem
#

i'm just gonna pick up the standard

indigo plank
#

Joked with a friend that it’ll be a different flavor of shovel and I think I might be onto something

long wharf
#

that looks like a lot of cleave

#

I care most about the talent tree, which we haven't seen yet

white sky
#

NDA breaks tomorrow right

indigo plank
#

It looks like Mk1 shovel with Mk3 Evi push attack

#

Which is HOT

white sky
#

Cant imagine we'll be waiting too long to see it then

pure plinth
#

i think that only representing necromunda-esque hive gangers as marketing was a mistake

long wharf
#

yeah, over the weekend we'll get good info

#

and a look at the talent tree

indigo plank
#

Although the PA overhead makes the Mk1 so I’m a lil worried it’ll be weak into Cara but we’ll see

#

Maybe it gets Uncanny KEKW_ogryn

long wharf
#

everything has to be weak against carapace

#

to maintain Crusher Gang Superiority

royal totem
#

lots of things in game are good against carapace though.

indigo plank
#

The MK1 is relatively weak into cara but like crusher maul, it just has a weirdly powerful PA to help offset that

pure plinth
indigo plank
#

It helps against most beefier enemies, not just armor

royal totem
#

uncanny would be cool on it though

indigo plank
#

I like to PA overhead mutants with the shovel because it does so much damage that if my pugs shoot the thing, I’ll prolly just get the killing blow

#

I do wish less randos would magdump mutants and just take a step to the left carlweary

#

But I’m happy with this too

zealous wing
#

lmao first roll on psyker12

indigo plank
#

Niiice

long wharf
#

I predict that striketeams are going to be severely ammo starved when running two or more Scummers

zealous wing
#

generally, yeah.

indigo plank
#

I got my plasmoid godroll the other day just on a “I wonder”

royal totem
indigo plank
#

Laughed to my buddy like “yeah some people spend millions of ordos on this”

royal totem
#

but we'll see

#

feels pointless speculating

indigo plank
#

Rolled a reverse godroll at first with 71 thermal res but then within like six more rolls I got the real one

royal totem
#

especially so close to NDA lift

zealous wing
#

i feel sorry for anyone paired with a scum that mag dumps, an ogryn with a twink, and a new arby with hordelear shotgun

zealous wing
#

they'll be at eachothers throats possibly

#

however

#

having a hive scum and a vet both replacing ammo would be very good

indigo plank
#

laughs in melee psyker

royal totem
#

i was running with a vet the other day and god they were the worst.

indigo plank
#

I don’t consume any resources

#

Well, other than Medicae KEKW_ogryn

zealous wing
#

laughs in surge surge

white sky
#

ability? ykwim

indigo plank
#

Im excited for the real funny part

#

Everyone having to start in sedition again

zealous wing
zealous wing
#

its gonna be pain

indigo plank
#

We’re gonna have to do it the old fashioned way

#

Can’t wait for the online posts about “can’t stand all these people playing scum just rushing ahead”

white sky
zealous wing
indigo plank
#

Literally people trying to get out of malice as fast as possible

zealous wing
#

thats kind of what nem and i are gonna do, except we have someone who can take us both to auric at once

indigo plank
white sky
#

Tbh I'm probably not buying scum on release

zealous wing
#

trial by fire genuinely works in this game

royal totem
#

i've been trolling around as psyker these days

#

but i'm still a terrible psyker

indigo plank
#

He’s put himself through a couple of gauntlets and just got his lunch money taken by poxwalkers

zealous wing
#

i was pulled from malice (having heresy issues) to auric mael and im now as good of a tox flamer as dom is

indigo plank
#

He’s come a long way tho. I’m genuinely proud of how proficient he’s gotten relative to time played

royal totem
#

BUT

#

i don't explode much anymore

indigo plank
#

He really enjoys melee psyker but doesnt yet know how to control the power so he often finds himself backdashing into a pickle getting butt tickled

#

“Oh shit that’s a ton of guys behind us”
“Behind you big dawg! I’m back here”

zealous wing
#

final stats

indigo plank
#

He’s the only friend I’ve brought into Darktide that actually played long enough to regularly queue Damnation/Auric

royal totem
#

ah so map awareness

indigo plank
#

They all quit in malice

zealous wing
#

not bad for a throw away character

indigo plank
#

He’s developing gamesense slowly. There’s a lot of things that can’t be taught as much as they just gotta be experienced and fine tuned

royal totem
#

a friend brought me into darktide

indigo plank
#

“Always dodge when you hear a trapper net, even if you don’t think it’s aiming at you”

zealous wing
royal totem
zealous wing
#

dogs too

#

dogs jump from so far away

royal totem
#

don't have the map awareness of somebody a few thousand hours in

zealous wing
#

i hear the lunge i turn and push

indigo plank
#

I’ve also felt dogs jump faster since Arbites update

zealous wing
indigo plank
#

Like they don’t spend as much time going “arrooo” before they actually jump

#

So they’ll round a corner and just TACKLE your ass

royal totem
#

not me

#

😏

royal totem
#

it's just like something you learn from experience

#

it's of course not about never getting dogged or netted or bursted

#

good players much more experienced than me still do. it's just about as little as possible

indigo plank
zealous wing
#

i almost took the wrong mark into a game again

#

that wouldve been pain

indigo plank
#

I’ve done that a lot with the Arby shotguns

#

“Oh fuck I took the duckbill”

deft stump
royal totem
indigo plank
#

I’ve started double pushing bursters

royal totem
#

double pushing bursters better

indigo plank
#

Normally I just single push and dash back but I found you can squeeze the second one and holy fuck it feels so much better

royal totem
#

i have slower reflexes than most of you here so

indigo plank
#

It also broke my habit of ALWAYS doing a PA because I don’t let off the LMB

deft stump
#

Double? 20+ times panicking.

royal totem
#

if i preempt dodge it generally works better for me

indigo plank
#

Do you know how many times I’ve detonated a burster by clipping it with a PA from longer weapons?

#

It’s a sad number

#

Low, but sad

royal totem
#

i need to play more heresy

#

heresy is the right amount of you get punished for your mistakes but also a you aren't so brutally punished you can't recover

#

for me personally

sullen bobcat
#

Punish me harder, daddy Emps UwU

outer condor
#

Thank you for sharing

strong gulch
#

Got that no mouse bug.

#

Just doing 1 mission btw.

#

I downloaded the relauncher mod, so that the game would relaunch on crash

#

problem is that quitting the game is actually a crash

#

so is alt f4

#

I was in a loop lol

#

I will just do it manually instead of this

zealous wing
#

now we just gotta hope no one shot it earlier and it only has a couple HP left

potent echo
#

Seems like they added a new HK server for darktide

#

It has much more people playing than central Pacific asia

verbal thistle
zealous wing
#

(he shot a burster and it killed him)

lone ravine
zealous wing
#

apparently after i blocked him he kept spewing trash so, glad i blocked him, and i hope he dies often

#

this was like, 5m later

lone ravine
#

I don’t get people who don’t take a singular piece of advice

zealous wing
#

"you should watch it giving unsolicited advice" tell me youre a moron without saying youre a moron

lone ravine
#

like as long as it’s not an entire game long I don’t care if someone gives a helpful remark

zealous wing
#

was literally the only advice i gave, and it was after he died to it

#

not after he shot it and killed me with it, after he shot another one and killed HIMSELF with it

lone ravine
#

hey he defused the burster at least

royal totem
#

it's funny

#

when they only kill themselves

#

it's not as funny when their willful ignorance punishes the rest of the team

#

or even one other teammate

long wharf
#

should have just said "Emperor protects"

zealous wing
#

ye i accidentally pushed a burster into the zealot earlier that game, and it killed him. i took a medicae, and absolutely dumbassed myself to the res point to get him back up kekw had like 20hp left by the time i got him up

long wharf
#

I've had my arbites dog push poxbursters into people

zealous wing
#

let alone jokes

long wharf
#

yeah

zealous wing
#

i would like a cancel dog button

long wharf
#

how about just not auto-sending your dog on first ping? 🙂

#

or use my mod that lets you hold down the ping button to send your dog

zealous wing
#

because 2nd ping is location

royal totem
#

i still thing bursters are the most buggy special

long wharf
#

buggy?

#

I've not noticed any bugs with how they work

#

pretty reliable

zealous wing
long wharf
#

I definitely haven't seen that happen myself

#

but okay

weary crane
#

Hounds are probably buggier but both are awful

zealous wing
#

hounds are buggy?

lone ravine
#

No charge up pounce, complete 180 pounces

long wharf
#

I'd chalk that up to lag

weary crane
#

Also ignoring stagger sometimes

#

And no sound

zealous wing
#

no sound is less the bursters fault and more the engines fault tbh

long wharf
#

sound is something that's not tied to a specific enemy (usually)

#

Darktide has so much audio going on that it easily runs out of audio channels

lone ravine
#

Sound is just because bajillion audio cues on at once therefore can’t do new ones

long wharf
#

and sometimes it's because the enemy literally spawned next to you

weary crane
#

I want a mod that allows you to remove unnecessary audio

zealous wing
#

all they need to do is make certain enemies have audio priority, namely bombers(and tox), bursters, hounds, and trappers

#

if they give priority to specialists it would be a smoother experience

#

bombers are on that list because they dont need LoS

#

so the only way to find them most the time is audio

lone ravine
#

Me watching the pox bomber hit 37 ricochet’s to dome me with a severed gas head

zealous wing
#

i do suppose sniper shots should also have priority

potent echo
#

Can anyone hear the sniper sound cue? I think they added one a few patches ago..

#

Like the laser's sound

lone ravine
#

I can hear the charge up noise

weary crane
#

I've had hounds bunny hop across the map, make 0 sound, land right next to me, ignore stagger, then immediately pounce from 180

lone ravine
#

Idk if thr laser makes a sound

#

oh it does make an ambient noise

#

I’ve never heard it

potent echo
#

Yea before the ping there's like a electrical brrgr sound

#

But it totally gets lost

lone ravine
#

Ngl im never gonna hear that

weary crane
#

I think sometimes sniper shoots before the laser sight even appears

lone ravine
#

Mostly because I need a new headset KEKW_ogryn

zealous wing
#

i tend to hear it unless its helldensityhavoc

#

in which case i usually try to face the sniper to see the flash

potent echo
#

Yea sometimes I get shot without the seeing the laser, maybe it has to do with character height KEKW_ogryn

zealous wing
royal totem
potent echo
#

True but I tend to notice this more on my max height zealot and not my average height psyker

zealous wing
#

i want explosion event velocity back ngl

potent echo
#

Might just be a coincidence though

zealous wing
#

the amount of explosives on a burster should fling me farther

potent echo
#

Training room with creature spawner is some fun times

#

Spawn 30 bursters and detonate them whatthefuck_heresy

potent echo
#

Aw you didn't hit the ceiling KEKW_ogryn

zealous wing
#

i have a slowly increasing project of "psykanium shenanigans" of me trying to hit the ceiling, playing with the lamps, etc

potent echo
#

100 bursters

zealous wing
#

i spend way too much time in there

#

i get all the lore drops

royal totem
#

oh no

#

i'm almost starting to like fgs

potent echo
#

Yes

zealous wing
#

welcome

royal totem
#

rip

#

i think pox gas is so obnoxious cuz you can't see incoming specials

#

i took 0 damage till a poxburster killed me in one go by exploding me off a bridge

sacred crane
#

ok which of my siblings named themselves this

i don't think he's a sibling...

#

my conclusion is never take bubble if you're not used to it lul

zealous wing
#

lmao who has the skissue where they require bubble?

royal totem
#

the arbs

zealous wing
#

LMAO they HAVE A BULLETPROOF SHIELD

#

deft stump
potent echo
#

I also blow up all the time with shield KEKW_ogryn

deft stump
#

The penance doesn't require completion.

#

I helped enough ppl to know that.

zealous wing
#

well no but never hurts to finish the mission

quiet inlet
#

don't get to 5mil dockets by quitting missions

deft stump
#

Assuming you are up for it anyway.

#

But yeah, is more ppl wanna just get it done and leave.

bitter frost
#

does anyone have any suggestions for the Malleus Monstronum penance?

paper harbor
deft stump

Do not take any soublaze things.

brain burst a boss with blue stimm faster or red make more dmg.

bitter frost

deft stump
#

Best boss is pogryn or DH.

bitter frost
#

i tried to do it on the slug bc its slow but the health was way too high :/

deft stump

Honestly, I would help if I'm not in bed and on phone. Been awhile since I did it.

royal totem
#

nothing is showing up for you either 🤔

bitter frost
#

hmmmm weird

royal totem
#

on an unrelated note. i refuse to go bubble on inferno staff

#

it's just miserable

bitter frost

Also shriek let's you stop one entire direction

So you can purge the other direction

royal totem

shriek lets you also ez save people from dogs etc

Assuming you have friends they can help you mop up either direction too

deft stump
royal totem
#

i hit 5m

#

i should be good for hive scum now 🙂

deft stump
#

Ah.

#

Been so long since MM lul. I kinda thought the next generation helps now.

royal totem
#

mostly me and hexis :3

deft stump
#

First person I tried helping, we played an entire afternoon. I couldn't try to solo heresy and we didn't get early bosses.

#

Ended up with a mid run DH that I just provoked as the final try of the day.

zealous wing
#

i always go for maps with guarenteed spawns

#

if theres none on the board we do a map thats alright and just see how it goes

deft stump
zealous wing
#

consignment wasnt around?

deft stump
#

So we just went random missions praying for DH.

#

Missions used to be random based on difficulty. So you only had 3 actual missions on heresy.

#

And I had to do the heavy lifting from memory since that person doesn't play higher diffs.

royal totem
deft stump
#

No campaign back then.

zealous wing
#

campaigns dont have DHs if we want a chance for more backup plans if i have to take over

#

depends how confident i am the other person can avoid and kill the monster tbh

royal totem
#

ah

deft stump
#

DH is safe bet.

zealous wing
#

it is if youre a psyker or oggy

deft stump
#

Just focus on disablers.

raw coral
deft stump
#

And chip into the DH.

royal totem
#

i like dark comunion cuz normally on heresy i find it's 2-3 chances

deft stump
#

Corruption damage from DH aura stops at around 40% hp left.

#

This is tested on my psyker mostly. Cos I used to do it with that funni build.

wind spruce
#

this makes zero sense

#

even account for rounding crit damage gives a worse % damage than weakspot does

#

and why do you only get ~24 bonus damage from the crit damage perk when its a ~282 damage increase from non-crit

deft stump
#

10% of 282?

wind spruce
deft stump
#

Maybe some weird rounding error.

wind spruce
#

even with rounding it doesnt add up

#

the third row i have the base rounded down and the perk modified damage rounded up

deft stump
#

I wonder if there's variational damage. No talent vet baseline or so?

wind spruce
#

on psyker with zero talents

deft stump
#

I assume jank FS coding.

wind spruce
#

yeah unsurprising result tbh

royal totem
#

anybody playing atm?

#

non-havoc only

mossy hazel
#

Can not beat this fucking twins mission

royal totem
#

why ?

#

what difficulty and such?

mossy hazel
#

Heresy. Just doing the campaign.

royal totem
#

i can help you if you need help

#

not guaranteed win but i'll be better than most randoms

mossy hazel
#

Sure, happy to take any help I can get. I’m new, but I feel like I’m mostly pulling my weight.

#

I even grabbed bubble to try to help the team a bit more but no luck so far.

royal totem
#

1 person can rarely carry a mission

#

inv me

#

i'll help

#

my friend code is next to my name

mossy hazel
#

Yea plugging it in

#

🤘

royal totem
#

i can't read strike team chat but yea xD put is in mission when ready

mossy hazel
#

I’m not typing anyway. On PS5.

royal totem
#

fair

zealous wing
mossy hazel
#

Appreciate the help.

royal totem
#

we'll just dip it

#

and inv hexis

mossy hazel
#

Heck yea

zealous wing
#

i can just join if theres room

royal totem
#

oh

#

damn

#

too late i dipped

#

lmao

#

inv me again Fox

zealous wing
#

all good, sorry xD

royal totem
#

hexis can just join from me

mossy hazel
#

Inviting

royal totem
#

also lemme switch to my zealot. will give us better buffer

#

ok rdy

mossy hazel
#

Did it not queue us?

#

It dropped me solo right into an active mission

royal totem
#

hmmmm not sure

zealous wing
#

it split us up then nems left

#

rescued the two others and left, least i apologised xD

mossy hazel
#

Yea, uhh.

royal totem
#

not sure what happened there

zealous wing
#

its been a bug a couple times, game freaks out and doesnt know what to do when someone joins right as another group, and just says "fuck it, split em"

mossy hazel
#

I can try again

zealous wing
#

ye

mossy hazel
#

lol

zealous wing
#

gg on the keep your distance penance as well

mossy hazel
#

No idea what that is haha

zealous wing
#

dont get hit in melee by an elite on heresy +

mossy hazel
#

Well, thanks for the carry that was so easy compared to my other runs

zealous wing
#

not a problem :D

royal totem
#

the twins fight is actually hard for new people

zealous wing
#

ye tell me about it

royal totem
#

cuz if you don't know how they work/how to handle it

zealous wing
#

when it was just my spouse and i playing in private games, it was a fucking struggle

royal totem
#

it's very punishing

#

i failed through it cuz at some point i got lucky and got qued with good players

#

also cuz like most players going through it first time are still using low power weapons that are gray

#

without their whole tree either

zealous wing
#

its the only reason my other characters were as leveled as they were, because my spouse and i just stopped at that mission until we figured it out

royal totem
#

having a book zealot makes a lot of room in that mission though

mossy hazel
#

Not sure if I left the strike group but it was unintentional. Got an invite, accepted, total strangers. Also, heard my dog whine and had to sprint to let him out.

zealous wing
#

no worries, had to relaunch

royal totem
#

i left cuz i'm in the "relax and sleep soon" phase

strong gulch
#

It feels like the game is shortening the amount of reaction time players can have in order to react on time. More noticeable in havocs. I don't mean lag or bad ping.

zealous wing
#

was having weird menu lag, but im down to hang out if you like

zealous wing
royal totem
#

it's cuz game hides too much info from players imo

mossy hazel
#

Cool, well, I appreciate it. I’m gonna head out too, but didnt want to be rude and just leave the group and vanish. Dog has been super sick so the moment he twitches I’m running across the house

zealous wing
#

valid

royal totem
#

🙁 hope dog gets better

#

like if you don 't have a mod you can't even see how much hp any boss beyond 2 has

zealous wing
#

i dont have that mod, makes havoc a bit more spicy when suddenly, no theres TWO CS and twins,

royal totem
#

which would be fine if the game never gives you more than 2 bosses at once

#

but it does

zealous wing
#

mortis also gives you like, 8

#

which mod is that actually

royal totem
#

think Healthbars does it but unsure.

strong gulch
royal totem
#

my reaction time is pretty slow too

#

i guess it's not very relevant to most people cuz most people will never get 2+ bosses at once

zealous wing
#

50% of the people who've played this game have never beaten an uprising mission, so i think that do be accurate

royal totem
#

i mean auric and below is unlikely to get more than two

#

even like havoc 20s is unlikely to get more than two unless boss+twins

#

it happens but like in 20s i can count on one hand the number of times i've had more than 3 (twins+1 boss)

zealous wing
#

heya dom

hmm, none of our staves/spells then?

deft stump
#

Watched a chaos spawn die in less than 2 secs before.

#

And while you can 1-2 shot on zealot thunderhammer, this is on psyker.

patent jacinth
#

Its mostly specific guns and melee

#

Force Greatsword, Infantry Autoguns, Laspistol, and Combat Shotguns all work

burnt maple
#

hmm i'll try that out

#

sucks that i have to rely on team if i'm not using a build with that

burnt maple
#

i don't want to use a gun 🤷

#

i want to use magic

#

so the answer is nothing

patent jacinth
#

Sword

burnt maple
#

i've been using the force greatsword on a lot of builds so i'm trying out other stuff

#

the chain axe seems okay

patent jacinth
#

Knife, force greatsword, the good marks of normal force sword, dueling sword (gross), devil's claw (one trick)

#

All of these are quite good for bosses

strong gulch
#

If you really want to use staves, EK and inferno are the options for boss killing.

It's not the worst but it's not the best.

burnt maple
#

which one is EK?

#

for inferno, Penetrating Flames or no?

strong gulch
#

electrokinetic

the one with lightening secondary

strong gulch
#

blazeaway + nexus

burnt maple
#

alright, i'll try that. i have the speed blessing + blazeaway atm

patent jacinth
#

Inferno for bosses is just a complicated way of saying just use soulblaze

burnt maple
#

what blessings for EK?

strong gulch
#

IF you really want to push the damage, using melee to buff the SB DoT is the way to go. That isn't using the staff directly tho, but warp stuff is doing the main damage for you.

deft stump
#

Blaze away and penetrating can work if you sleep with a God/Goddess of Luck.

strong gulch
#

It's in the build bonanza in the pins.

Ek is flak + maniac / unyielding and nexus + flurry

#

RMB assumed

burnt maple
#

cool, thanks!

#

i'll try them out

#

left tree i assume or middle?

strong gulch
#

left

#

EK can do well with right side but will need assail to help with hordes if doing right side.

deft stump
#

Cos a lucky leprechaun will crit all the time even at a 1% crit rate

strong gulch
#

yes

#

but also assail

wind spruce
tulip kettle
#

penetrating flames on inferno

#

is only worth taking into rot armour, and only if you dont mind losing your own damage to boost your team mates damage

solid pond
#

better to just run normal BA./WN with a uncanny melee

tulip kettle
#

i agree

#

but, pen flames is actually better overall damage if your team are competent

strong gulch
#

if

deft stump
solid pond
#

nah they can be competent and not be running stuff great at taking advantage of pen flames

#

when you could just kill the enemy

deft stump
#

And crit non-stop anyway.

tulip kettle
#

it stacks with other sources of brittle

#

60% brittle makes ogryns and arbies go brr honestly

#

like dont get me wrong, you can just run normal and stack uncanny and do it all yourself

#

but if your team are otherwise good with competent builds you will get faster overall TTK on crusher blobs with pen flames

#

i would still take blaze away and drop nexus for it

#

its especially useful if you are running bubble and so cant overcap inferno stacks easily

#

and dont rely so much on EE

#

but yes, usually into rot i would just say take shriek and nexus and do it all yourself

strong gulch
#

Might have room for JaD if not peril edging.

#

I don't. Too much skissue

solid pond
#

don't even need shriek to melt cara hordes, sure it does it faster but uncanny/superiority does wonders anyway

burnt maple
#

if i'm using Nexus, should i also build into Empathic Evasion?

zealous wing
#

JaD is GREAT for melee heavy builds (like gunker/meleeker), but as a caster JaD does cause issues ye

tulip kettle
#

you always build EE honestly

#

but, yes

ripe obsidian
#

EE is one of the best nodes in the tree.

solid pond
#

ranged attack evasion is just really good

burnt maple
#

with Prescience or is Seer's Presence fine?

ripe obsidian
#

Seer's Presence is my preference

solid pond
#

yeah, don't need to critmax that hard

ripe obsidian
#

I usually sit around 40% overall crit rate on my inferno staff w/ Seer's Presence

#

And with inferno, that's more than enough

strong gulch
#

Ye

tulip kettle
#

this is inferno meta build

#

its 28 points

#

spend the last 2 getting some of the red ones you want

burnt maple
#

i usually take shield to get people to move in

if you take bubble instead of shriek, get the blue ones

i think the main mechanic you may not be fully appreciating is stacking uncanny with soulblaze

why is inferno staff is so much stronger than any other, even combined

it isnt

it literally isnt

#

uncanny + DoTs is

solid pond
#

cleave

terse lintel
#

ive been playng with voidblast for my whole life

tulip kettle
#

its uncanny that makes it good

terse lintel
#

now ive equipped inferno just test it and it does gorillion damage

solid pond
#

its good without uncanny, maybe not against crushers but it still dominates everything else because of infinite cleave

terse lintel
#

with brain rupture + passive

solid pond
#

even through bulwark shields

zealous wing
#

inferno is still really good for trash clearing on its own, but ye the absolute power house of it comes from interactions that weren't really planned

tulip kettle
#

if they nerf uncanny interacting with DoTs it wont be meta anymore

burnt maple
#

so you swap to the Deimos with Uncanny and it works for your dots from Inferno?

tulip kettle
#

yes

#

if you watch the clip i posted

burnt maple
#

i thought they fixed that

terse lintel
#

you just spam your fire and random balls explode because of your passive

tulip kettle
#

you can also see that the push attack gives you uncanny stacks

#

and staggers crushers

#

and keeps your peril up

zealous wing
#

and yet, people would rather have an inferno bubble psyker than an inferno shriek psyker 😔

tulip kettle
#

but, inferno itself doesnt do great damage to non trash

#

without this interaction

zealous wing
#

quick brb btw dom

burnt maple
#

what is Shriek doing there aside from CC?

tulip kettle
#

overcapping soulblaze

it is indeed

I think I have some notes about it in the guide

Its not even that good on paper

PoTS is pretty good on voidblast

but otherwise its a nope

strong gulch

more like skin deep

Rending is pretty cracked on the melee jobs

tulip kettle
#

you just dont need it with uncanny

burnt maple
#

but on just warp, that doesn't sound useful

nocturne wasp
ripe obsidian
#

Look at the ADM part of the bonanza

tulip kettle
#

and due to the ADMs on the various warp stuff you have access to, it just does nothing

ripe obsidian
#

Anything that's 100%+ gets 1/4 benefit

burnt maple
#

should let us go in the negative rending on things lol

#

-120%

tulip kettle
#

it does like six just said

wind spruce
#

Or additive with most sources like pretty much everything but strength is

burnt maple
#

oh then it's just not enough to matter and on not enough things

tulip kettle
#

kinda

#

ill use an example

#

soulblaze does 5% damage to carapace

icy breach
tulip kettle
#

POTS as max peril makes it do 20% damage

#

which is still nothing

weary idol
tulip kettle
#

but uncanny makes it do over 100% by itself

#

so, just stack uncanny and fuck off POTS

burnt maple
#

makes sense

ripe obsidian
#

Uncanny needs a significant nerf.

wind spruce
# ripe obsidian What do you mean?

well increasing your armour pen increases your base damage, which scales better with damage multipliers like perfect timing, right? so does the extra damage something like uncanny gives when you're over 100% also count as base damage

I forgot Sitgryn

Okay, going by Kuli's writings, anything above 100% ADM is an additive damage modifier.

what curios are you guys using? i'm using 3x17% toughness...but i do have 21% healths, and 3 stams

"The rending surplus of 1.25-1=0.25 is then converted into a generic damage buff at a quarter of its value. So the attack now deals 320+320x(0.25x0.25)=340 damage total to the Carapace-armored hit zone."

strong gulch
# tulip kettle

What if we all run variations of this.

No one would hear anything.

tulip kettle
#

is what i suggest for rending + flurry voidblast with FGS

ripe obsidian
icy breach
#

Unless you dont use rending shockwave then fair enough but tgen why would you not use of the best brittle aplication sources in the game

tulip kettle
#

you can also drop battle med for POTS to get +5% dmg on the trauma

ripe obsidian
terse lintel
tulip kettle
#

rending + flurry blast with duelling sword / knife

ripe obsidian
# icy breach Brittle does that

I know. I believe I put in the guide that I would only recommend using PotS on blazing spirit Voidblast, and even then it's iffy.

wind spruce

#

and, again, you can take pots

terse lintel

i never saw psyker with any other scepter

it gives about 5% more dmg on the trauma

i was just maining arbi with vet and now decided to try psyker

tulip kettle

lstw

#

again

#

do you understand what we said

zealous wing
icy breach
tulip kettle
#

its not inferno thats broken, its the interaction of soulblaze with uncanny

#

so does the game timer.

ripe obsidian
#

Inferno has infinite cleave, and Uncanny is broken.

#

Ideally, Inferno would just clear trash mobs and be useless against armored enemies.

tulip kettle
#

which, IT IS

ripe obsidian
#

If you aren't using uncanny.

tulip kettle
#

but the CORE MECHANIC in the game of blessings applying to current sources of damage makes it work

wind spruce
ripe obsidian
tulip kettle
#

in testing i get about 5% damage increase using POTS with rending trauma.

ripe obsidian
#

That's the important part

nocturne wasp
icy breach
strong gulch
#

If team has good frontloaded damage then inferno should be useless vs armor. Otherwise...

burnt maple
#

i wish there was a talent that would make overperil explode the zealot, or another team mate ins tead of you

tulip kettle
#

ask chatgpt.

wind spruce
#

thats why i annoy you lot do ingame testing

strong gulch
zealous wing
#

its just if/then statements, its not that bad

ripe obsidian
#

Going by the code, it appears to be separate from other damage multipliers

tulip kettle
#

if you guys havent got there before me i will test later this eve

ripe obsidian
#

It's a unique variable of overdamage_rending_multiplier

#

which is applied at the same time as rending

strong gulch
#

the grandpa flavors

can easily chuck 80lb bags around
or
yells up a lung getting out of the chair

ripe obsidian
#

So it does seem to modify the base damage before other modifiers are applied

#

local rending_damage = damage * (rended_armor_damage_multiplier - armor_damage_modifier)

ripe obsidian
#

rended_armor_damage_multiplier = armor_damage_modifier + rending_multiplier * overdamage_rending_multiplier

wind spruce
#

suspicions confirmed

ripe obsidian
# icy breach So its worse vs carapace?

It would mean, assuming I am interpreting correctly, that if you have, say, 30% rending on a Voidblast staff, your damage would count as 102.5% damage before other multipliers instead of 80%

#

damage = damage * rended_armor_damage_multiplier
