we had smoke, bubble, taunt and shout for this ES vet

#

I made this back in havoc 1.0

#

When we did our havoc 40 duo

#

I would be a surge staff psyker spamming m1 suppression for my ogryn duo

ripe obsidian
#

didn't you do that with trauma?

verbal thistle
#

Both

#

Well

#

I used trauma in the run that we won

#

But that was havoc 2.0

ripe obsidian
#

Victory was thine

verbal thistle
#

What's this talent called?

mighty cipher
#

Why can six well timed darts from the needle pistol shave just over half the HP of an auric Pogryn off?

verbal thistle
#

Yes

#

I almost finished a hive scum Havoc 40 solo with needler only

#

1st room I killed 2 cspawns, an awake hexbound dh, and a plague ogryn

Add another reason to the list of why zealot can go fuck himself.

Sadly got killed by buggy dog

mighty cipher
#

Tragic

#

I hard carried a team through a monstrous specials heresy maelstrom at around level 19-20. That director was PISSED that match and I ended it with nearly 250k boss damage.

verbal thistle
#

That's high iirc

#

Well done

mighty cipher
#

On HERESY

ripe obsidian
mighty cipher
#

That was genuinely was of the most fucked matches I’ve ever played.

verbal thistle
#

For?

ripe obsidian
#

Scum.

verbal thistle
#

I got a few

ripe obsidian
#

I am enjoying shivs/needler the most, but I want many builds

verbal thistle
#

I like dependency the most

#

I wish pathing in that area was cleaner

#

I do not want to take coherency range

ripe obsidian
#

This has been my build the last couple days

verbal thistle
#

Careful taking nimble

ripe obsidian
#

I know it only works on melee

verbal thistle
#

It has a goofy interaction with ranged

mighty cipher
#

Oh?

verbal thistle
#

Seems to decrease dodge immunity timing with ranged

#

My default build

ripe obsidian
#

Not dissimilar to mine

deft stump
# mighty cipher Oh?

You WILL get hit by shots way more with it. A double edged sword of a node tbh.

potent echo
#

Huh nimble has negative effects

deft stump
#

Or so it feels like.

#

So you get shot to bits during 'end' part of the dodge.

#

Some say it's FS poor coding decreasing the amount of time you are immune, see how they coded Nuncio TDR before the fix. Others say it's just due to the dodge animation lasting way longer than the increased dodge frames.

#

Could even be both for all we know.

tacit stump
#

do you think we gonna get a dot weapon like Siennas firesword?

plucky flax
#

Maybe next year

tacit stump
#

and maybe some soulblaze improvements though with inferno staff nerfs

quartz barn
#

just dodge slide all the time and the negatives from nimble dont exist anymore

potent echo
#

In patch 1.10.0, we introduced a change to how explosions work that was meant to improve performance around said explosions. A side effect of this was that players are being ‘hit’ by explosions from farther than before, which was unintended. We’re aiming to fix this issue in the next hotfix.

#

So fatshark says 'hit' in inverted commas

quartz barn
#

ah so it seems like i got hit and lost half my health but i was actually just imagining it

It was just a dreeeam

#

Omg bursters ARE working differently

#

Maels with pox burster modifier feel pretty unplayable without wall rn 😂 it’s pretty much a guaranteed team wipe if someone misses a single burster

deft stump
#

Great, now I can't get the build I have atm due to not enough points. Sighs. Thanks FS for ruining my builds.

modern heart
#

guys how build melee pycer?

#

im thinking about swaping my blitz cus i barely use it

glass sundial
long saddle
#

I would do warp splitting for FGS as well

#

if you don't want to spend the point on it I'd run assail instead

glass sundial
#

And I'd definitely take warp unbound instead of warp speed for scrier's gaze

long saddle
#

warp speed is fine, no unbound is fine if you don't use peril much

modern heart
long saddle
#

warp splitting also helps assail

#

unbound works with assail p well

#

I have to take unbound because I'm too used to it

glass sundial
long saddle
#

I just overload on accident otherwise

modern heart
#

relatable

#

ima try out kinetic flair first then assail

zinc phoenix
#

heres how i did a KF psyker.

#

you get eternal sg so long as you are attacking which is nice

#

and with bcob + quietude you have infinite toughness regen

#

sword not having deflector is crucial

long saddle
#

PC seems extra here

zinc phoenix
#

yes, but its also free damage on something you do naturally so theres no reason not to take it

#

quite a lot of free damage

modern heart
#

omg i forgot about warp splitting

#

i gotta put that on

zinc phoenix
#

you want to stack cleave related stuff, its p important

long saddle
#

well it depends if you run it with other psykers that do use more SB

zinc phoenix
#

if youre running with multiple psykers it doesnt matter

#

either its so much damage everything dies instantly so who cares or theyre bad and die instantly and it wont matter

zinc phoenix
#

tranq thru slaughter seems nice but your gun is generally a sidearm you use for annihilating bosses/specials so the sg uptime isnt worth the point buy

#

KF makes it so you randomly merk enemy specials which is great when you just clip a mutie and it explodes

#

imo the crit chance aura is important for this build because you want to be triggering empathic evasion a lot

modern heart
#

but i guess i dont need it need

zinc phoenix
#

with empathic evasion you can shoot the gunners as you run at them then commence stabbing

#

so long as your crit chance is high they cant really hit you for meaningful damage

#

that said the issue i see with your build isnt the traits its the sword

#

unstable power is immensely important, deflector is kind of a throw

modern heart
#

i just have deflector cus everyone is hive scum so nobody has long ranged but me and it leads to a shitload of gunners

zinc phoenix
#

mk6 vs mk8 fgs is also an important distinction. the mk8 has easy access to wide sweeps and is better at horde clear, the mk6 has easy access to overheads and is better for special clear. you have to combo or PA into the moves for the thing they arent as good at

long saddle
#

I'd skip shred if you really want deflector

zinc phoenix
#

I’d switch to assail if gunners are your biggest worry

#

Assail builds are massively better at murdering gunners

#

You’ll lose the close in performance boost of KF for fighting elites… but you weren’t using it for that anyway so you won’t notice 😂

modern heart
zinc phoenix
#

Las pistol is the more mobile variant of recon las

#

If you want to try something completely different the autoguns can be pretty fun

#

Shredder Autopistol is the laspistol equivalent for those

zealous wing
#

lol but dont rely on it tons it sucked XD

#

unstable power all the way tho

#

20% strength is really really good

#

more damage is more damage

zinc phoenix
#

Someone posted video correcting me a while back when I said it was bad

modern heart
torpid creek
#

for flame staff charge time blessing or brittleness on hit?

zinc phoenix
#

And in gameplay so long as you’re shooting non Cara it does indeed work pretty well

zealous wing
modern heart

#

pen flames is never needed

modern heart
zinc phoenix
zealous wing
#

yeah i slotted it into my gunker

zinc phoenix
# zealous wing pen flames is never needed

Pen flame is never needed outside of some niche modifier + team comp combinations where it can be really good but normal players will never run into this and can ignore it

modern heart
zealous wing
#

let me get to pc and ill show you how we do it

modern heart
#

yeah if ur running force sword no need for brittleness

zealous wing
#

you should always have a force weapon on inferno tbh

zinc phoenix
#

No way

zealous wing
zinc phoenix
#

Knife and ds see a lot of play on purgatus

modern heart
zealous wing
#

ds is genuinely why bother, knife has mobility, i have seen agent do that, but you arent gonna get carapace dead faster unless youre really good, and fine being up really close

#

nothing makes us wince more than a purg using DS

modern heart
#

wdym?

#

ds has uncanny wich makes ur fire do more

zinc phoenix
#

DS has a good combo of riposte special, single target headshot dmg and solid mobility. Knife is all in on mobility. FS got the push and occasionally the special but the mobility suffers a bit iirc

zealous wing
#

either take a knife for mobility, or be confident in your movement with deimos/obscurus

zinc phoenix
#

I’ve just been enjoying ds recently 😂 the change to riposte is fun

#

Ds5 riposte dueling out the rager swarm is always fun

modern heart
#

fr

zinc phoenix
#

But again, haven’t been doing havoc much this season

zealous wing
#

seeing agent kite and kite and kite the rot swarm from last season was intense, because nothing was really dying

modern heart
zealous wing
#

its ADM is changed now but, its not in, so we cant see if knife is more viable now for that

interruption to overheads also safer

you cant parry 20 overheads in a row

#

omg i forget it could do that 🤦‍♂️

#

my b

zealous wing
#

the push atk on all force swords can

#

i think on laspistol too

#

havent tried but i think it does?

#

i usually run FGS if i have laspistol, so

#

i just switch when its bonk time

summer prairie

oh yeah

#

i love they fix it, right after i do the penance

classic me timing

gotta see if its better than chem nades

zealous wing
#

also, i didnt clip it, thought six would

#

but

#

bro was pulling a shroudfield zealot on daemonhosts last night kekw

#

as a scum

#

hope the new layout doesnt mess up his build too much cuz that shit was really funny to me. need to get it again and actually clip it for when people say hive scum is all glass no cannon

#

(yes there are people saying that)

#

lmfao well at least the tree isnt reset

summer prairie

Aww, they removed this from broker_talents

on one i had a spare point even kekw

deft stump
zealous wing
#

oof

#

what got cut out

deft stump
#

Need 2 more points for them due to being forced to take the toughness on ranged hit taken and something else.

summer prairie
#

Weakspot damage is no good anyway

deft stump
#

The other is funny though.

zealous wing
#

why is weakspot no good?

jovial juniper
#

Fatshark math

zealous wing
#

ah

deft stump
#

Is okay on extremely high finesse stuff, but nothing really special.

#

I only had it cos shivs and knoifes.

jovial juniper

Yeah it needs to be a good amount of +weakspot

zealous wing

its sad i know EXACTLY what you mean by fatshark math Sitgryn they have a history of le bullshite

You could even do it at the start of a map with a 15 sec stim and then leave after 30 mins.

I found out it was counting the time weird when I did an entire map at max stacks and got no progress

deft stump

Yup, found that out the hard way

Most ppl wouldn't cos mission will end with it on.

It's all closerange kills.
You should be getting them with guns too

#

Especially on scum

deft stump
#

And chem now... if you own the stack.

royal totem
#

Thats a big if in qp

#

And i shoot lots of things that arent close range

deft stump
#

Still.

royal totem
#

Its not worth it

nocturne wasp
#

Well it's definitely worth it, but if not your preference that's what matters

royal totem
#

Horde clear is just ok for only needle gun so sometimes chem nades or big boom are the solution for my playstyle.

leaden thunder
#

close range is like 15-20 meters

royal totem
#

15m i believe

royal totem
deft stump
#

At least 12.5m... is easy to check with desperado.

#

If they are highlighted, they are in close range.

nocturne wasp
#

🤦‍♂️

deft stump
#

Is the truth though? They get a white highlight.

royal totem
#

Also, penances of hive scum are pain

wraith sphinx
#

just the custom stimm ones really

#

even with using the stimm crate it's cancer

#

everything else is fine and gets done really fast

deft stump
#

Red/blu is easy.

#

It always applies.

wraith sphinx
#

it all sucks but the toughness one sucks the most

deft stump
#

Toughness actually requires you to have no toughness.

wraith sphinx
#

and it really showcases how trash that whole branch of the stimm lab is

deft stump
#

And trying to get myself hit just to stimm is like... terrible.

can someone test this while I'm writing a bug report

Just to add no self exploding staff

Lemme try on a real game

We increased player hitboxes and now they can’t explode

No, I mean you can't get value out of it if you can't explode

have to run purg I guess

I mean yeah. The proof is in the fact that you can boot the game up at all. I’m surprised that’s something that doesn’t break more often.

you buy 6 bottles of cough syrup at once or more than 64 gb of ram at once

you go on a list

royal totem
#

that's a bad idea

#

cuz like some people do validly need more than that

fierce crest
#

64 might not be the right cutoff

royal totem
#

like here's the thing, if a consumer is buying a kit of 96 or even heck 192 that's not really anything

#

because it's a lot in your opinion but it's still a single kit

#

compared what AI companies buy at once

#

im def being hyperbolic

it's a rounding error

wall so good in mael

#

i just cant even

#

Takes missions from burster bullet hell to running forward between walls casually owning everything in the mission

#

Even managed to complete the “no one died” contract 😂

scarlet barn
#

whats the best ranged option for psyker?

zinc phoenix
#

There’s no single “best” for all of the game and all playstyles

scarlet barn
#

Shouldent the loadout for the hardest possible mode kinda just stomp every other lower dificulty?

#

depending on playstyle of course

zinc phoenix
#

No, as plenty of newer people who only do havoc find when they go into auric maels and their build doesn’t work

#

The threats are different, the breakpoints are different, the needs are different

scarlet barn
floral copper
#

purga staff is straight useless in auric and below with competent players as stuff dies too fast but in high havoc its great because infinite cleave and warpfire can actually do work

#

pysker is a lot deeper than just whats the best weapon unfortunately

#

there are bad weapons though

zinc phoenix
floral copper
#

yeah

#

i prefer trauma in havoc personally as ive had more success with it

scarlet barn
#

Well i solo play SO i cant do havoc

zinc phoenix
zinc phoenix
#

Yes? I don’t do the voice comms organized group thing for Darktide

scarlet barn
#

Im a do a mission or two then stop for the day type of guy
Pugs dont usually like that

floral copper
#

either way depends on what abilities you want to use as well as blitzes as some things combo better with other ranged weapons and vice versa

zinc phoenix
scarlet barn
#

Right now im using Smite Gaze build
not trying to stun lock forever just pause big mobs so my team can kill em
But i want some other ranged options

zinc phoenix
#

Havoc’s biggest issues are that it is super repetitive, the party finder minigame is ass and the mission time is bloated because you’re clearing one meatwall after another

#

But it’s totally doable to pug all the way thru

scarlet barn
ripe obsidian
#

Seems like a good hot fix today

floral copper
#

if youre playing auric the other two are way more rewarding and faster acting

iron flame
#

staregryn Ok turns out it is not really me having a skill issue with inferno staff

scarlet barn
iron flame
#

It is inferno staff with 20% warp resistance and making me making me overestimate how much warp is going to cost lol

floral copper
#

its fine, but not only it teaches you to play incorrectly it suffers from the purga issue that in auric if your team is competent it just gets out performed

jovial juniper
#

Smite falls off on Havoc

After leveling it to 60% i stop blowing myself up that much

#

not playing havoc but tyvm

glad bolt
#

I just played a mission with scries gaze and glitched myself to never trigger perils explosion loregryn

floral copper
#

its not a glitch

#

hotfix broke psyker doesnt require warp unbound either

#

default trauma void strike and strokin your force sword cannot trigger perils this patch

#

hotfix*

glad bolt
floral copper
#

they didnt even touch psyker and this happened

#

idk how

#

also surge staff left cannot but its right click can

scarlet barn
#

Might play a different class if smite isnt good on auric

iron flame
#

Huh ?

glad bolt
#

and here I was quelling for no reason

jovial juniper
#

Yeah

floral copper
#

some one posted a vid above earlier but yeah currently trauma and voidstrike cannot trigger perils of the warp regardless of ability choice

jovial juniper
#

You can only blow up with Inferno staff and electric rmb

floral copper
#

spaghetti code at its finest

glad bolt
#

this is the psyker buff we needed

iron flame
#

Soo ... any what does this mean ? I can just stay at 100% peril and blow ppl up with voidstrike ?

floral copper
#

yes

iron flame
#

staregryn Damn

#

time to abuse it

floral copper
#

idk how this bug got through but i guess every class i main in every game is cursed with the wildest bugs

jovial juniper
#

It'll be fixed in 2 days tops

floral copper
#

thats a long time i was praying for afternoon fix

jovial juniper
#

I won't bet on it because I'm really bad at gambling

floral copper
#

im all for funny but this is a horrendous bug

iron flame
#

hmm yea i tested it out ... while 'interesting', it give my frame rate drop because i imagine the peril is supposed to trigger but doesn't and bug out

floral copper
#

it could also be a mod causing the lag cause was watching someone else do it and they got no lag

ripe obsidian
iron flame
#

Hmm ... true i guess but eh it will probably be hotfixed fast anyway. i will just stick to gitting more gud with inferno staff

jovial juniper
#

You can't explode with plasma as well due to this bug

#

But everytime you shoot

#

It drops frames hard

iron flame
#

yea ... fun bug but not it drops my frame rate so i think i will just stick with normal gameplay lol

#

if it doesn't drop frame rate, i was thinking to try that funny left click surge staff

ripe obsidian
#

Psyker needed a buff.

jovial juniper
#

Yeah but not infinite² ammo

ripe obsidian
#

Scum has infinite ammo

#

Psyker needs infinite² ammo to compete

scarlet barn
#

I was told its not

quaint lark
#

I use it all the damn time in the right areas and its perfect for my team

#

Dont spam it 24/7

#

I use it as my main weapon but if theres like a horde of 15 dudes I dont use it

#

I use my shotgun or greatsword

scarlet barn
#

Thats why i was asking about a good secondary

wraith sphinx
#

smite is fine, it's just easy to abuse to the detriment of other teammates' enjoyment of the game

quaint lark
#

My secondary is shotgun and melee is greatsword

wraith sphinx
#

It's also my least used blitz. I only like running smite with Voidstrike staff

quaint lark
#

As a mage If I dont wanna use magic I CAST BELLY FULL OF LEAD!

strong gulch
#

Smite isn't good because it's too strong. Has so much impact. So it's misuse smite and negatively impact a game.

quaint lark
#

Use smite right and you turn the tables just right it feels good

scarlet barn
#

I dont spam it 24/7

#

i promise

quaint lark
#

Never 24/7 it

royal totem
#

one day i'll play with Vortex or somebody and see their smite

I feel like smite is best used when there is a bunch of mauler and crushers

wraith sphinx

#

ah

#

next time i can convince Chaos into carrying me

scarlet barn
#

So what secondary is good with smite?

iron flame
#

Man ... it is crazy how having high warp resistance stops me from blowing up. I thought it was me having skill issue but after leveling up my staff, i stops blowing up that much despite under heavy pressure

I've added Exploits vid of using smite as a primer to the 5th pin.

BUILD BONANZA sounds like a scam but this time 6 was being more of a Six and less of a Sevenius

ripe obsidian
#

Why does it sound like a scam? D:

tardy pumice
#

i was just in a mission with a psyker that did some ability and deletes all enemies nearby, what is that?

#

it was like an aoe wave going outwards from him

#

1shotted all normal mobs

ripe obsidian
#

Shriek w/ creeping flames.

strong gulch
#

FGS special?

tardy pumice
#

hmm but i have that and i dont recall 1shotting mobs

iron flame
#

FGS swordwave can oneshot normal mobs at full power

tardy pumice
#

he was using force sword

iron flame
#

it is 2hand force sword ? that might be it

tardy pumice
#

he was playing melee psyker

#

idk

ripe obsidian
#

FGS special makes sense, too

tardy pumice
#

so this one for example

royal totem
tardy pumice

#

yea mostly likely force greatsword's swordwave

keep in mind that it had to be fully charged to delete an entire horde

Blaze Away Warp Nexus

ripe obsidian
# jovial juniper Exactly

I am glad I got my H40 out of the way earlier this week. Do not want to deal with this nonsense in Havoc

iron flame
#

Hmm for warp nexus and that talent that does more damage at high peril, what is the highest number ?

#

i mean threshold

#

80 i think

how often does this build use the pistol?

#

and why heavy laspistol specifically?

#

is it just if u need to snipe a sniper real quick?

jovial juniper
strong gulch
#

Laspistol is gonna be your mobility stick and way to get crits quickly. You can shoot as you slide and is your ranged option when you need it. This gun has a lot of damage if you can hit headshots.

If you can't headshot, you're better off using recon lasgun. Most people choose this gun.

If you are only really using it for boss damage, then Vraks 5 is your gun.

#

Note that BB is a little harder to do than assail. BB also doesn't off much uptime for MM, but it will help boost KF and FGS specials.

royal totem
#

does dclaw need a certain stam amount to parry?

strong gulch
#

I think for crushers it does.

#

I am not a dclaw user tho.

royal totem
#

ah

#

idk any dclaw users to ask

strong gulch
#

Hm. I know there's a few. I can't remeber who they are.

#

Are you doing it on scum?

Because what little I know is mediated through psyker.

wraith sphinx
#

well chat, I am still pretty new to Darktide but I think it's pretty fun 😄

If you do a perfect parry

It'll make it so the attack doesn't cost more than 2 stamina

i tried to parry an overhead

#

and got sent straight to down

#

so i assumed i must have mistimed it

#

and after i got up from down

#

i tried again

strong gulch
# royal totem YEAH

Like @jovial juniper said, there is perfect blocking that uses less stam. Gotta get the timing right tho.

There are mods to help know when you've done it, but with the servers being unpredictable... 🙃

royal totem
#

and got sent straight to death

strong gulch
#

skissues will make it harder for sure

radiant frigate
royal totem
#

to be fair, i had blocked a few things before the overhead

#

so i might not have had 2 stam

strong gulch
#

if you can test in the meat grinder for stam needs, that might help

royal totem
#

i wasn't actually fighting practically, i was more trying to style

#

cuz sometimes you just want to try to style on the crushers

the only one I could find is for toughtness resist

warp slitting
immaterial focus

All of those need high peril or scale with peril.

On of them is poopie on most builds.

rigid frigate

uh

#

has anyone else noticed u cant blow up anymore

vague musk

same with trauma

or have warp unbound

which is part of gaze

no like

no talents or anything u cant blow up

Only inferno and EK blows you up.

rigid frigate

ahh i was just about to test inferno good to know

Plasma works as well.

at first i thought my game was bugged because it was stuttering like crazy at 100 peril then i realized i wasnt blowing up no matter how much i spammed the trauma staff lol

Anyway ppl. I want to try a smite build ...

How is this roll?

I just learned about the 100% Peril not blowing up our local Psyker bug after Hotfix 83, but does the bug have any downsides regarding to game play stability?

Like game will crash or cause the player to disconnect from server

Maniac + flak, probably

Wierd I guess ive not noticed cause i mainly use inferno staff

#

Also is the warpfire bug another issue that popped up after Hotfix 83?

subtle sierra
#

Had to switch up my havoc build because Warpfire(or wildfire perk) has been crashing servers. It happens on/off when daemonhosts and ritualists are afflicted with it

royal totem
fading shoal
#

Okay, noted on that.

jovial juniper
#

Electric staff rmb still blows up

#

Everything else doesn't

subtle sierra
#

I mean I havent noticed the bug because I dont usually deviate from inferno. Glad with that though cause I fear using bugs like that will change my playstyle for the worse when it gets fixed

#

I have been noticing crazy performance drops when using the electrokinetic staff, maybe its just my pc

subtle sierra
#

Which patch, doesnt look like it was mentioned in the one today

zealous wing

they did mention the wildfire fix tho

Oh sick Ill have to test it again, I cant remember if i was still having the issue or not after the patch. Thanks for the mention

ripe obsidian

(Gameslantern is the build website, but many builds there are iffy; I try to compile known good builds in the bonanza)

#

I have lots of talent descriptions, builds, and templates for making your own builds.

zealous wing
#

so tldr, no there is no website to reliably grab good builds from. but there IS a googledoc in the pins

scarlet barn
#

Then can I just get a good simple answer for a good ranged weapon
i 100% do not beileive EVERY weapon is = cuz thats just not possible

could be vraks infauto, could be reconlas, could be las pistol, could be surge stave

#

depends what your other arsenal is

#

its less every weapon is equal, and more each weapon is used for something different

strong gulch
#

The reason why the build bonanza exists is because there is a constant stream of question about "what's a good build for psyker".

There are many builds there for different needs, play styles, focuses, etc with explanations as to why.

If you want further info or have specific questions, we are here.

#

But a lot of the info people ask for are in the pins.

ripe obsidian
#

I need to make an effort to give info on melee weapons and guns.

strong gulch
#

We constantly have convos about builds and how stuff interacts.

ripe obsidian
#

I would prefer to avoid a tier list, as the point of the guide is not to enforce a meta of what's best

strong gulch
#

So if you have specific questions, please ask.

#

If you have a "what's a good inferno build" then check the pins.

main wyvern
#

Is the rending not good on voidstrike?

scarlet barn
strong gulch
#

Right side psyker invests heavily into crits and finesse damage. There's on crit talents and blessings. So guns that have high rate of fire or finesse scaling do quite well. Some guns also have crit strings which makes proccing things like EE better. Most right side build take FGS or a force sword; so they are not the best in term of mobility.

For these reasons, recons, vraks 5, and laspistol tend to be the more popular picks. They are either a good mobility stick, have up crit uptime, decent ammo econ, good finesse, etc.

main wyvern
#

Also wondering if the 5% crit aura would be better but it feels bad taking it

#

If you have Psykinetic Aura you’re already giving your teammates plenty of extra ability regen. 10% is very little.

congrats i suppose

zealous wing
#

however, we do need something to go off of

#

vraks infantry autogun for example, great on a gun build, built for killing monstrosities. reconlas, great for a bubbleknight gunker build, great for proccing empathic evasion to get up close to ranged elite packs and capable of helping kill a monster, laspistol, great for a melee psyker build as a side arm for similar reasons, etc etc

no no it's fine

zealous wing

nothing will work fantastic with empowered psionics, so you kinda have more free rein of choice at least

wraith sphinx
#

I mean the s word always causes strong reactions but it's fine

#

personally I prefer assail with empowered psionics

gray juniper
zealous wing
#

if youre staff heavy you want warp siphon, if youre melee heavy you go for disrupt destiny, empowered psionics is for a blitz heavy playstyle

scarlet barn
zealous wing
#

so, i guess something for specials would be ideal

#

bolt pistol, laspistol, something with mobility

gray juniper
#

Unless you’re using assail or just a god at brain rupture, empowered psionics isn’t for most

wraith sphinx
scarlet barn
#

yeah cuz it locks them down

zealous wing
#

3 free assail is fun but, dd is better for the damage

scarlet barn
#

Should i swap it to one of the other ones?

gray juniper

it doesn't stop crushers from attacking but you can use it vs them, it will be good practice to dodge their overhead attacks

but your build also needs to have synergy to perform in such a capacity, so if you have "random bullshit go" build, and "random bullshit go" weapons, its not gonna work as well as something cohesive
