@scarlet barn Fixed.

@icy breach Can you look at the SG + Smite build in the guide to see if it makes sense? I don't use Smite enough to know for certain.

long wharf
#

hard disagree

ripe obsidian
#

@verbal thistle Why is Hyper-Violence good? It seems like a pretty minimal damage increase on Shivs

ripe obsidian

icy breach

#

I do not wish to learn it

#

Gib build pls so I can fix it.

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Gross

icy breach
#

you can include that one

#

i am not kidding

ripe obsidian
#

Why bother with Battle Med and Empyric Resolve?

#

Warp Unbound kinda makes them redundant

scarlet barn
#

whos Mr E

ripe obsidian
#

A youtuber who makes bad psyker content. Every youtuber makes bad psyker content tbh

icy breach
#

you stay longer in SG = more benefits

ripe obsidian
#

Fair enough

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

I thought I had it in there

#

I'll fix that

icy breach
#

so i will wait thumbsup_ogryn

ripe obsidian
#

Build updated.

ripe obsidian
#

pffft

#

That's probably not actually smite, though

#

That's probably something to do with Brain Burst

#

Smite is usually "chain_lightning" and brain burst is smite

zealous wing
#

smite in the code is brain burst

ripe obsidian
#

Though Smite does seem to have flat 1s for ADMs

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Yes

#

Does the same damage to a crusher as it does to a scab gunner in my testing

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Correct

#

I just copied the Mr E build for the moment

icy breach
#

i will do it

#

cause you will get yourself an aneurysm

ripe obsidian
#

I mean, I went from 25 damage to 30

icy breach
#

you can say i'm an experienced smyker

ripe obsidian
#

That's a 20% increase from Warp Rider

#

Not another 20% from PotS

Okeydokey

strong gulch
small blade
#

Its been a while since i played darktide, did they remove the knock back ability the psyker used to have?

strong gulch
#

Can you describe it more.

#

Psyker has access to multiple push tools.

#

Do you mean ability as in red talent nodes?

small blade
#

i recall they used to have a force push type of ability? it was before the talent trees were in the game...

==============================================================

icy breach
#

I JUST CHECKED

ripe obsidian
#

?

#

I am not seeing it.

icy breach
icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

I do not see numbers

icy breach
#

THIS IS AURIC CRUSHER

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Without PotS

#

With PotS

#

the difference is just from warp rider

#

slightly different peril levels rounding differently

#

Without PotS and Warp Rider

#

With PotS and no Warp Rider.

#

1 extra damage, so the extra 5%ish from the 1/4 effectiveness

#

And identical damage to Flak

#

And Unyielding

icy breach
#

while you have lower?

ripe obsidian
#

Are you using LMB or RMB?

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

I disagree with that, but that's neither here nor there

icy breach
#

aka charged

ripe obsidian
#

It looks like there are two damage profiles associated with Smite

#

The direct damage and the interval "buff"

#

The direct damage is flat 100% across the board

#

The interval damage is not

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Smite direct damage:
Unarmored - 100%
Flak - 100%
Unyielding - 100%
Maniac - 100%
Carapace - 100%
Infested - 100%
Void Shield - 100%

Smite interval damage:

Unarmored - 75%
Flak - 75%
Unyielding - 100%
Maniac - 100%
Carapace - 50%
Infested - 75%
Void Shield - 75%

#

This seems to be it

#

With the latter being the electrocution buff

#

And the former is just damage dealt by the ability itself

quaint lark
#

I knew smites fucking good

icy breach
quaint lark
#

Tell that to the others...

ripe obsidian
#

Smite is good. Smite is also boring for me and many other people.

icy breach
long wharf
#

so what I'm hearing is 4x smykers is viable havoc team

quaint lark
#

Understandable but it hits me for the perfection it is in some way

icy breach
long wharf
#

3x smykers and a hammer zealot

quaint lark
#

And no one can say different

icy breach
weary crane
#

Smite isn't good in havoc imo

quaint lark

weary crane
#

Psyker should be doing the most damage, also smite doesn't account for ranged, muties, bosses, final toll and red stimmed

quaint lark
weary crane

Even when theres not i always run up and am perfectly fine

No i always point myself where theres the heaviest point of problems and im perfectly fine

Seems someone haven't found a good smyker

weary crane
icy breach
# weary crane Psyker should be doing the most damage, also smite doesn't account for ranged, m...

thats why you take VS to counter them/ you push them into smite range
muties you focus hard by facing them while smiting; they get stunned
Bosses are a hard counter BUT there are many caveats to them; already made an essay about them
Final toll & red stimm; it is what it is; final toll is more of a counter but red stimm is not - with a coordinated team its just like nurgles blessing modifier; its suppose to counter smite but it does not - you stun everything while the red stimm guys come forward for your team to pummel them instead of fighting them inside a horde & potentially risking chip dmg

quaint lark
#

This^

weary crane
#

The stuff smite is most effective against can be killed very quickly by other means

quaint lark
#

But not as many as smite can, plus we can keep it up for a much longer time, while what zealot can throw 3 fire nades then he's out?

#

We dont have ammo, others do

long wharf
#

the problem is that if you had gone purge instead of smite, you would have simply killed the crowd instead of making it dance funny while enemies still charged the team

icy breach
weary crane

They pinpoint the and kill quickly

Mhm

icy breach
#

I'm yet to see purg stagger a crusher

quaint lark
#

I wanna see 50 crushers overhead swinging on you and survive

icy breach
#

in a situation where you have no escape

quaint lark
#

Smite will keep them stunned and can kill them

#

Plus we can keep it going

weary crane
#

Smite doesn't kill crushers lol

icy breach
icy breach
#

with PotS

quaint lark
#

I have killed crushers easily

#

Ok not easily but it can be done

icy breach
#

just scroll up; we had a discussion

long wharf
#

how are you combating SG's peril generation with smite?

quaint lark
#

I have no idea i just made the bulid and it works for me lol

weary crane
#

They just use warp unbound

quaint lark
#

I said fuck it we ball and it worked

#

I have only ever popped 2 times

long wharf
#

oh, they don't care about making it last longer, they just sit in smite for the extra 10 seconds?

weary crane
#

Yeah

long wharf
#

...

quaint lark
#

Longest ive kept smite up is 10 minutes

long wharf
#

your poor team

quaint lark
#

And even if I have to quell it takes less then 2 seconds

long wharf
#

watching you crawl through a map holding down smite

quaint lark
#

I do t crawl i keep up easily

#

Hell ill out pace them sometimes lol

long wharf
#

do you exclusively play with ogryns?

#

there's no way in hell you're outpacing a mobile class while spamming smite

quaint lark
#

No I play with my two zealot friends and my bf plays as a arby

long wharf
#

indeed I would

#

greatly so

weary crane
#

Smite can't crit so no movement buff either

icy breach
long wharf
#

you're basically using SG just to keep smiting

quaint lark
#

No movement buff, I use my dodges effectively

#

Yes

#

And it does amazingly

weary crane
#

Youre lucky the anti smiters aren't here rn

quaint lark
#

I played alot of metroid prime so it helps

weary crane
#

I'm not anti smite I just think it's ass

long wharf
#

so, what, you never pop because you don't ever let go of smite?

quaint lark
icy breach
quaint lark
#

And SG just works for me in some way

#

Oh no my feelers are so hurt

icy breach
quaint lark
#

Please, my mom was a Karen by name

quaint lark
#

Haven't been on recently though due to FUCKING SPECTRUM

#

But I ain't worried about some anti smiters we hate each other end of story move on, ill sit here all day

#

Besides its a fucking game, do we really need to be so fucking pissed someone is playing the way they like?

royal totem

One day

quaint lark
#

One day what?

royal totem

I want to play wih a good smiter

ripe obsidian
icy breach
# ripe obsidian The current image in there is an exact replica of the Mr E build because lazy

hes mixing in range & melee usage in that build which is an option & its fair
i went pure smite; you could also use the MM if you use guns for extra dmg for sniping & early smiting; +25% dmg for your ranged gun is very good in combination with other dmg buffs & rending
you could even just whip it out at 100% peril & shoot crushers with a bolt pistol & it will do nice dmg to them

analog agate
#

yep. the shiv

#

weird

ripe obsidian
#

What level are you?

analog agate

ripe obsidian

That is why

So they changed that then

They nerfed it at levels below 30 afaik

I know I hate the crowbar. It's maybe my least favorite melee in the game.

icy breach
#

altho if i would replace Dclaw with Taxe on that build it would be better but its Taxe; i make generally considered dogshit weapons/abilities/archetypes/keystones viable

long wharf
#

I love the crowbar

wispy bay
#

Brittle coating bonesaw is pretty strong.

ripe obsidian
#

I don't like the moveset and the swapping animation feels weird and clunky

long wharf
#

crowbar in alt mode with can opener absolutely fucks carapace

wispy bay
#

Crowbar is a little boring while not being that strong imo.

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

I didn't say it was complicated

#

I just don't enjoy it

long wharf
#

I love the uppercut baseball swing that is H1 with the crowbar

wispy bay
#

You can the same thing with Caxe without changing the modes.

long wharf
#

especially when charging and sliding at an enemy

icy breach
#

the only thing that makes me sad is that crowbar has no hammerblow blessing

dull scroll
#

Bonesaw is mid at best in and of itself. But it's got great synergy with this

icy breach
#

it should

icy breach
dull scroll
#

combined with this: it's very OP on stim box builds

#

you can greed 70sec stims with it and cd is super fast

long wharf
#

bonesaw doesn't beat shivs for applying toxin

dull scroll
#

1 stack is enough

long wharf
#

extremely consist with shivs

dull scroll
#

yeah, if you crit, with a talent. bonesaw the weapon itself guarantees tox on hit lol

long wharf
#

I know

#

but shiv also attacks fast enough that it's more than sufficient

#

on top of that, it has way better cleave and moveset

#

I extremely dislike bonesaw moveset

wispy bay
#

Brittle coating with stimm talents make the weapon much better.

dull scroll
#

nobody likes the bonesaw moveset

#

but your claim on shiv, that's a pretty big claim, imma have to test it later

wispy bay
#

Knife is better than shivs imo.

#

If you want to count that one.

ripe obsidian
#

Shivs feel way more fun and fluid to me than knife

#

All the ranged weapons feel fun, as do the blitzes that aren't boom bringer

#

Desperado and Rampage are both very fun

wispy bay
#

I like knife moveset more, personal opinion, I guess.

viscid matrix
#

so why is scum discussion here still, even after a week?

lone ravine
#

because why not

ripe obsidian
#

And because there's nothing new to discuss with Psyker

wispy bay

Learn other class to understand the synergy.

bonesaw i see no real use for tbh, i like the mobility/speed of shivs

as for crushers, i just use needler as a sidearm and problem gets solved fine long as i can make space

My dps also goes up if someone can hold a boss in place while I stab the back.

#

It also seems to stack with another supply cos my atk animation basically broke to the point I was hitting as fast as I could fan my trigger.

#

Was playing with another red/blu supply Ganger.

zealous wing
#

if you use the stim first, the supply will NOT give the stim to the group

modest trellis
zealous wing
#

it will just give the raw crate

modest trellis
#

Can't imagine using shivs normally

deft stump
#

And we were both doing the eat stimm first, then drop supply.

zealous wing
#

...

#

and what kind of stim did they eat

deft stump
#

Same, red/blu.

zealous wing
#

that would be why they attacked fast

deft stump
#

We were alternating uses though.

#

I stimm and crate, they didn't. Both brrrrrrrr.

#

Also, the time we stacked it, we both used ours then supply and all I can say is I broke the barrier and just... attacked too fast.

#

To the point it's absolutely a JJBA episode.

also it makes sniper spam modifier so much better

So, IDK how FS coded the mess, but I know normal stimms get eaten on dropping supply.

zealous wing
#

as they're supposed to

deft stump

But we are talking cartel specials.

I also can extend my stimm by stimming, then dropping my supply at the end to continue the kill trigger finger thing.

1 shot for most elites/specials with needler

wispy bay
#

Saw is a support weapon with brittle coating.

#

Apparently, that brittle stack with the normal brittle,

zealous wing
#

if anyone else is applying brittle, that is

wispy bay
#

Very strong if you think for the team and not your personal scoreboard.

zealous wing
#

idk what (i think it was oddball?) did to make it "kill a monster in 5 seconds", but its not whatever i have thats for sure lmao

#

and no i dont even run scoreboard

wispy bay
#

If you cut it away, then it is not great.

zealous wing
#

even direct psykanium weakspot hits with brittleness then "shooting it a few times with the needler", did not kill the burgle much faster than if i only kept toxin up

shadow oar
#

is shredder autopistol still bad

zealous wing
#

probably

shadow oar
#

i havent used it since before locks

potent echo
#

It's the last ranged weapon unlock for hivescum so it must be good

zealous wing
#

might be fine on hive scum but, even on a full gunker build it kinda sucked when i was playing hive scum at home

shadow oar
#

hardmode unlocked last duh

sturdy reef
#

shredder is fine

modest trellis
potent echo
#

What's the upsell vs dual autos

sturdy reef
#

it can melt bosses

#

and flak/maniac

#

do you get the dlc characters weapons for all or just them if you buy the dlc

#

the key thing is stacking to 30 tox and comboing with brittle

zealous wing
#

even hit it with the saw many times

zinc phoenix
#

interesting

cold ivy
#

chem tox unyielding ADM is 0.9

#

so 40% brittle increases your damage from 0.9 to 1.075

zealous wing
#

oh and my needler does have unyielding on it so i was also hovering on that while checking dot

zinc phoenix
potent echo
#

I prefer to put unyielding on melee because realistically you will have that out more often when bossing/kiting

cold ivy
#

ah i think hexis was talking about a solo kill

zealous wing
wispy bay
#

So at full stack vs crusher without brittle coating, it is around 520 damage per tick

pure plinth
wispy bay
#

Vs crusher with hit from brittle coating, it is 625 damage per tick

hollow spruce
#

what does strength affect with unstable power? dmg?

cold ivy
#

1.075 is 19.4% more than 0.9 so you're getting ~20% more damage from full brittle

zealous wing
#

not over unstable power, and shred was on that list

zinc phoenix
potent echo
#

It's also nice for the rest of the team

wispy bay
#

Also, if you want even faster damage against boss, use the brittle coating + actual DPS ranged.

strong gulch
hollow spruce
#

copy that gamer

potent echo
#

Idk if the stagger makes any difference for FGS in particular

#

Most thing just die on bonk

wispy bay
#

Something like BrAR or autopistol can delete monstrosities very fast, especially with both brittle coating and normal brittle.

pure plinth
potent echo
#

Unstable should have near 100% uptime

zinc phoenix
potent echo
#

I'm going to play brauto with crowbar on rampage next

pure plinth
#

ig it would depend on the build

zinc phoenix
#

stack a billion attack speed on it

pure plinth
#

on a scrier, dd build i feel some other thing would be better

zinc phoenix
#

im also reasonably sure saw benefits hugely from ultraviolence because you kill low hp stuff thanks to tox

wispy bay
#

APistols has much more damage though, but the reload such as if you want it for bosses.

potent echo
#

Precog with max buffs can probably oneshot crushers lol

zealous wing
#

80% peril puts you at 20% strength

zinc phoenix
#

neway from my pov scum is really good at being a dps or enabling the team to kill dangerous stuff super fast

zealous wing
#

this is true

pure plinth
#

with crack of bone itd be much lower

zealous wing
#

...

potent echo
#

I usually weave assail in-between cracks

zealous wing
#

if youre low peril all the time idk what to tell you other than youre losing damage

potent echo
#

I don't let it drop all the way down

hollow spruce
#

one more question: how do i harvest blessings to put on another weapon again?

potent echo
#

Also malefic momentum

#

Damage value!

pure plinth
#

i dont think id need it if i can get near 100% uptime in combat on scriers

wispy bay
#

I'm trying to think of something with the stim supply to make a support ganger build.

potent echo
#

More damage is more damage

zealous wing
zinc phoenix
potent echo
#

Idk why you would draw the line at unstable power

hollow spruce
#

oh thank god

zinc phoenix
#

masteries are earned by sacrificing weapons to hardon

#

but it doesnt matter what is on the weapon and greens work fine

hollow spruce
#

okay sweet

zinc phoenix
#

same weapon as the one you want to unlock stuff on will make things much faster

zealous wing
hollow spruce
#

last time i played it was horrendous rng only

potent echo
#

Times are so much better now

zinc phoenix
#

yeah you had to get the weapon drop with the correct blessing then harvest it

mighty cipher
#

Mastery XP given is based entirely on the POWER of the weapon. Blessings, refinements, and consecration are irrelevant.

hollow spruce
#

gotcha

zinc phoenix
#

then you had to find non dogshit stats and get it applied + we had the locks 😱

hollow spruce
#

I had 200 knives in my inventory trying to god roll back in the day

potent echo
#

Never upgrade something beyond green if you want to sacrifice it, it doesn't give more xp

sturdy reef
#

scummer support is better without a ton of stimm nodes

zealous wing
#

if blight, 15, 20s tops

pure plinth
#

thus to the question, best blessings on fgs

wispy bay
#

You can support by killing the enemies, that I understand. I want to do a buffing other of my team.

zealous wing
mighty cipher
#

I GOT A GODROLL BARRETA FROM BRUNT

#

COLLAT DUMP

zealous wing
#

because you should also have this

#

and this (tho not peril based, it does scale)

#

so youre telling me youd rather settle for "eh, it could be higher but its fine" damage when you could easily run higher damage?

mighty cipher
pure plinth
#

i never noticed the difference on specifically a scriers dd fgs build if i took unstable

#

by crack of bone and the peril quell on ranged crit talent seem to simply dump my peril to zero all of the time

zealous wing
#

if thats the case you might as well take off all the wasted nodes like warp splitting and warp rider

#

or, you could take off the quell on crit and bcob

#

how i was told was, are you playing psyker or a weird vet

pure plinth
pure plinth
zealous wing
#

there's a whole array in the pins

#

no peril, 100 peril, noncrit, heavy stab, headshots, crusher. i run this tree.

#

and i did wait for shred to not be active for both

#

scriers also not active

#

only difference being peril level

#

if you only sit at 0 peril most of the time, to the point you find peril based boons not worthwhile, youre missing out on a lot of damage that makes psyker actually strong

ripe obsidian
#

Scum and I had a ~5 minute clutch

zealous wing
#

you got out damaged by the scum

#

toxin dot very nice

#

glad im not the only one running stripped down on my needler

ripe obsidian
#

I was also running bubble

#

Because we had no frontline

zealous wing
#

makes sense

#

although

#

you do have a zealot there

#

but, hey, it worked out

ripe obsidian
#

Stealth + Hammer zealot

#

Hence the 500k boss damage

#

More than everyone else combined

shadow horizon
#

If I que with three friends into a match, does it count as a private game for Malleus Monstronum, or do we still need to set it as private in the matchamking options?

royal totem
shadow horizon
#

👍 Thanks

ripe obsidian
#

Honestly, everyone in that game did everything we needed. Died more than was ideal, but oh well, havoc is hard

#

Vet sniped specials and krak'd crushers.

#

Zealot bonked bosses, one-shot most of them.

#

Scum ran around and dealt with dangerous things on the edges.

#

I burned hordes and put down bubbles so we could advance.

#

Pretty nice when people play to their roles.

zealous wing
#

sounds like a well oiled machine then

ripe obsidian
#

It's weird to me that my ranged damage was more than my soulblaze damage

#

I guess things were dying before I could stack a lot.

zealous wing
#

probably

#

your range is also much more limited with no shriek

ripe obsidian
#

It is true

#

And hard to stack damage on elites when there's a hammer zealot, a plasma/krak vet, and a needle pistol scum

zealous wing
#

esp if everyones actually on top of it, yeah

ripe obsidian
#

Yeah, I feel a lot weaker without Shriek.

#

And the Vet would've beaten both of us if they hadn't gone down for that 5 minute period

royal totem
#

One day...ill play with Six

#

But i sleepy today

ripe obsidian
#

I wanna faff about as scum now that I have my weekly H40 out of the way

zealous wing
#

idk who it was

#

someone was wanting to know how to turn off high peril sounds

#

i figured out how

#

wish i could remember who tho lmao

#

im just gonna slap this here with
disable peril sounds, lower peril sound effects, turn off the high peril sound, for some easy searchability in the future loregryn

as an added note, to disable the tentacle effect, you'd need a mod like "disable screen effects"

#

I got 2 more wins b4 Im back at 40

ripe obsidian
#

oh

#

Well.

#

Scab ragers are carapace for soulblaze now

#

I didn't realize.

zealous wing
#

a... are they!?

ripe obsidian
#

Yes.

sturdy reef
#

they changed their base armor to cara?

cold ivy
#

wait.. when was this update? i thought their "core" was still flak so soulblaze still uses flak adms

sturdy reef
#

it should still be flak

zealous wing
ripe obsidian
#

Not for me

#

Says carapace

zealous wing
#

SAYS cara but reacts to switching

ripe obsidian
#

Ah

#

So I am deceived

#

:(

zealous wing
#

yes

#

:(

#

does the same for toxin, i was confused

ripe obsidian
#

That is why I noticed it

zealous wing
#

but, did confirm just now as well

ripe obsidian
#

Testing with toxin

zealous wing
#

they are indeed still flak core

#

cara at home

ripe obsidian
#

Yeah, code says flak

#

So why does it say carapace?

#

What in tarnation

zealous wing
#

i think its been that way for a bit

ripe obsidian
#

Weird.

#

I probably knew that and forgot

zealous wing
#

probably

ripe obsidian
#

Also

#

Why is a body shot with a shiv throwing knife enough to kill most specials on H40

zealous wing
#

toxin or pre-toxin

ripe obsidian
#

Toxin

zealous wing
#

well thats just because it applies a lot of stacks

ripe obsidian
#

4

#

It applies 4

zealous wing
#

basically a free needle shot

ripe obsidian
#

Needle pistol is 6, but doesn't kill those same specials

zealous wing
#

well thats odd

ripe obsidian
#

Sorry, it does kill the ones in the video

zealous wing
#

show me? i havent updated solo yet

ripe obsidian
#

I am mistaken on that part

zealous wing
#

okii

ripe obsidian
#

I hit a scab flamer instead of a scab bomber, confused myself

#

Dreg*

#

Lordy, I have no brain tonight

zealous wing
#

hehehe

ripe obsidian
#

But anyway, it is weird to me that the shiv throwing knives are stronger than Zealot's blitz knives.

zealous wing
#

it IS weird

#

in order for my zealot knives to actually kill i have to have a bleed bistol

#

and remember to have it out, or throw two if im reading the book

ripe obsidian
#

A headshot with them does count for uncanny

#

And uncanny does seem to boost toxin damage

zealous wing
#

the ranged damage node at the top also works

ripe obsidian
#

Weird.

zealous wing
#

the "enemies within 12.5m" or whatever

#

ah i love inferno in normal psykanium

#

constant kf pops and never ending fire kekw

ripe obsidian

It is pleasant

It’s like those Christmas time fireplace videos

#

How do u regen throwing knives as scum btw

fiery chasm
#

Kill any special enemies iirc.

wispy bay
#

Shivs special attack

#

Oh, kill specialist and elite.

fiery chasm
#

I believe killing non-human sized enemies also regens 2 knives instead of 1. I might be wrong.

zealous wing
#

or, kill any enemy with a backstab

#

any

#

poxwalkers included

#

or, did they change that

ripe obsidian
#

Specialist, elite, or backstab kills, with melee, yes.

#

And killing an oggy enemy gives 2 knives back

zealous wing
#

HAH nope

#

any enemy backstab refils, lmfao

#

nope to the, did they fix that

#

it wasnt working at first but i guess i didnt aim right

ripe obsidian
#

it's not broken

#

It's intentional

#

"The Special Attack of the Shivs is limited to 3 at a time, but you can regain Throwing Shivs by either killing Special and Elite enemies with Melee attacks, or by performing backstabs."

zealous wing
#

i could see them nerfing that because its really fucking strong lmao

#

hell, even minus the tox thats still good

#

its a whole extra blitz, basically

1079 on a reaper w/ light spam
1499 with heavy spam

#

with adrenaline and superiority stacked, light is about 2400 dps and heavy is close to 3000

potent echo
#

Understandable

#

Heavy spam

#

Also heavy2 seems to have a faster release point than heavy1

ripe obsidian
#

I can try to find out

potent echo
#

Maybe I'm holding heavy1 too long

ripe obsidian
#

They both appear to have a 0.44 chain time

#

If I am reading the code correctly

potent echo
#

It feels to me like you can already start holding heavy2 while it is still recovering from the heavy1 drag

#

Or rather it is not very visually obvious when you can start charging heavy2 because the weapon is fully offscreen

wispy bay
#

Single target mode locks you to the enemy if they don't die or you move in the wrong direction.

#

I won't recommend it. Only a camera lock at the wrong moment can end the game.

potent echo
#

It could result in very bad stuff happening yea

#

Especially with ping and mutants

#

Just jorks your view behind you

ripe obsidian

@zealous wing Part of this is going to be luck and skill and such, but my highest single hit damage in a mission without Hyper-Violence was 3427. With Hyper-Violence, it was 7132. Same shivs in both missions, I believe.

#

Oh, shoot, the non-hyper mission was apparently Desperado instead of Rampage. Never mind. More testing required.

tulip kettle

why even live

Just doing LMB spam, with Hyper-Violence top damage against 50 poxwalkers is 882. Without is 533

Against dreg ragers:

1761 w/ toxin mania and no hyper
3086 w/o toxin mania and with hyper

But hyper is useless for heavy attacks

#

Only useful for lights

Dunno if they are canon in lore but like a staff with an sharp edge or something to let me use it as a halbred or spear

just to double check how warpghost works:
this just slows the "passive" tickdown of peril right? so that node is functionally just pure upside? since i want to be at high peril basically all the time unless i specifically want to quell?

i assume thats one of the reasons ive never seen anybody take the damage reduction while at sub critical peril talent, since we are basically at high peril all the time if played correctly
