psyker-class

[wraith sphinx]

it works well enough because in all these normal game difficulties the secret sauce is that you can run basically anything and win if you're skilled enough at the game

[scarlet barn]

being 100% honest the other two seem like hot garbage
so this is kinda crazy to hear

[wraith sphinx]

your only real considerations are making sure you have 500 power weapons and not to use anything that dumps damage

[wraith sphinx]

Just goes to show how there's depth to the game 🙂

[royal totem]

blink blink blink. whaaa? brain burst especially paired with kinetic resonance lets you quickly get rid of that far away sniper your team refuses to deal with. with kinetic flayer it lets you hit elites for a lot of damage or kill them depending on the elite.
Assail is excellent mixed horde clear

[zealous wing]

assail is also pocket peril + damage, great for melee focused builds

[scarlet barn]

So does a gun
and so does the zelot with a thunder hammer 1 shotting the plague ogryn

[gray juniper]

If you’d rather use smite I’d say that’s a comment against the quality of your melee weapon

Chainsword gets you stuck on things

[zealous wing]

do you always have a shroudfield zealot with a thammer? do you have a gun when you have an inferno stave?

[royal totem]

sure. i guess if you're playing gunker. also, i said elites and not monstrosities. 2nd of all, you're a psyker and not a thunder hammer zealot so that's a bad comparison

[scarlet barn]

No
mainly its me and 3 hive gremlins now days >.>

[zealous wing]

do you prefer turning off your teams active damage talents and blessings? locking them in bad spots? blocking the way forward? slowing people down because youre smiting not moving forward? thats the general hatred reasons for smite these days

[scarlet barn]

Really?

But they cant move and take more damage

[zealous wing]

enfeeble does not help as much as you think it does

[scarlet barn]

10% feels like its allot

[royal totem]

you're turning off people's on dodge talents and turning off zealot's +50% finesse damage talent and a lot more. the extra damage you make them take does not make up for it

you might think that but a lot of blessings and talents give significantly more than 10% and you're turning those off

[gray juniper]

You’re also ruining people’s cleave opportunities almost certainly

[scarlet barn]

How am i turning them off?

[gray juniper]

That’s if you use smite on a crowd

[zealous wing]

people cant dodge if theres no attacks

[scarlet barn]

Im confused

[royal totem]

they're activated on a dodge that actually dodged an attack. if you use smite, enemies aren't attacking so they can't dodge for their blessing damage buffs

[gray juniper]

And I’ll tell you a secret, it’s so much easier and smoother when enemies are grouped up tight

[zealous wing]

its also really boring to fight frozen enemies

[scarlet barn]

Why are you taking situational damage bonus abilities?

[zealous wing]

dodging... is not situational

its constant

dodging is a huge part of the game

[royal totem]

because for most classes you dodge a lot or you're dead

[scarlet barn]

Stuff never really gets to me.

[gray juniper]

My whole strategy is dodging until the horde is in a cone pointed at me or circling until I can cluster them. When people smite that just means a lot of button mashing to hit every one individually

[zealous wing]

hive scum is built entirely around dodging, it even regens their stamina which in turn can make them attack faster or have more damage reduction

[scarlet barn]

Ok so
NOT ONLY am i playing wrong
I fundimentally Misunderstand what the games comat loop is about

[gray juniper]

For zealots, vets and hivers you’re cancelling their healing and stamina, for psykers you’re cancelling their damage.

[zealous wing]

ogryn is just ogryn

[gray juniper]

True

[zealous wing]

[royal totem]

I'm not going to tell you to not take smite or such. In the end I don't particularly care like most people. but i will tell you you're making zealots lose 110% ish finesse damage. you're making hive scum like damage and such. Smite has its uses like freezing an unexpected horde or dangerous things teams can't deal with cuz already too much pressure. It's just...please don't be smiting 24/7

[scarlet barn]

I havent seen an ogryn in a week

[gray juniper]

Lmao

I could believe that

[zealous wing]

ive seen one ogryn with the new voice... and that was on na east

(he was also a bad oggy) :(

[royal totem]

and also be aware smite has its downsides as well. that's all you need to be aware of

if you choose to take smite knowing all that then well, have fun and all

[scarlet barn]

I just...Like in any other game if you said "You can stun lock whole rooms and deal damage to them and make them take more damage" people would be cheering

[zealous wing]

at first it does seem good

[leaden thunder]

they can if you do it at the right time

just not all the time

[zealous wing]

sudden wall of armour no one can deal with quickly? works

need to cover an objective-doer? a res? works

freeze everything all the time, not fun

[scarlet barn]

well thats why i took venting shriek so i wouldent have 100% up time

[leaden thunder]

it's a blitz and should be used like the rest of the blitzes in the game (ie situationally)

[royal totem]

Though the 10% is still a wasted talent point imo

[zealous wing]

also true

dont smite the bosses, btw, that can also lock people in place to not dodge the attacks of the monster if theres trash in the way))

[scarlet barn]

I never did cuz my sword did more damage to them and they dont get stunned anyway

[tulip kettle]

I'm so proud of you all

[zealous wing]

DOM :D

[zealous wing]

what, we didnt rip their throat out?

[frank bloom]

hey weird question chat but how would one get the new hotfix cosmetics that just came out

[tulip kettle]

Hey :D

[frank bloom]

hi

[royal totem]

Why

[tulip kettle]

You accurately conveyed why smite sucks

[zealous wing]

for the drip, its a mod that lets you see all hidden cosmetics and customise them, thats how people see them

[scarlet barn]

Kinda dont even wana ply psyker anymore

[tulip kettle]

And discouraged someone from using it

[scarlet barn]

yeah thanks >.>

[frank bloom]

thx

[royal totem]

You shortened your name

[tulip kettle]

I did

[zealous wing]

that does suck, psyker is one of the strongest classes, especially for melee, but, you can do as you please

[tulip kettle]

It's not 2006 anymore I realised

[zealous wing]

for shizzle

[scarlet barn]

well I dont like any of the other classes and I only really liked smite

[tulip kettle]

That's unfortunate

[zealous wing]

if you want microstunlock, electrokinetic staff might work for you

[tulip kettle]

Now you can learn to murder everything instead

Also, you can take smite

[zealous wing]

does dom want to auric

[tulip kettle]

Just, use it sparingly

[scarlet barn]

or just quit ethe game

[tulip kettle]

He does

Very much

1 min

[zealous wing]

i have inferno dibs

i want more practice

[tulip kettle]

bet

Also I did this today

[scarlet barn]

Im just gona go back to vermentide

[mighty cipher]

I just spent 15 minutes in an H40 match with a Fanatic zealot who wouldn’t stop spamming ”Vacuum Capsule!”. Supposedly he couldn’t stop the voicelines but that was still annoying as fuck.

[tulip kettle]

The pile of shame shrank by 1!

[zealous wing]

NOOOOO

the pile of shame must be refilled

thats the rule of art

[tulip kettle]

dont encourage me

[zealous wing]

we must always have unfinished works

[tulip kettle]

the pile is still large

SPIT IT OUT BEANS

[strong gulch]

If like smite then play it.

Just be aware that smite can make the game unfun for others. That is true of other things too, but smite has the biggest capacity for it.

[strong gulch]

I type slow you poop.

[tulip kettle]

:D <3 sorry

[scarlet barn]

I dont want to be an acive detriment that people fkn hate to play with

[quiet inlet]

It's not everyone. Do whatcha wanna do.

[zealous wing]

bring somethin murdery, use smite as emergency

[strong gulch]

Emphasis on CAN.

[zealous wing]

thoughtful smite is fine, its the permasmykers we hate

[strong gulch]

It's easy to misuse smite.

There is a vid in the 5th pin that uses smite as a primer.

[marble crater]

First thing I see when checking chat: Dom flaming Beans

[strong gulch]

Smite in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing is stupid strong and hepful.

But it can really make things worse too.

[tulip kettle]

its friendly flame

[strong gulch]

true frens

Gotta cook me so I'm safe to eat.

[scarlet barn]

I've been trying to find what other weapons to use that's the whole point of why I came here in the first place and it devolved into, it felt like dunking on people who play like I want to play

[zealous wing]

if you like melee, bring something small but punchy like a bistol to specials

[strong gulch]

Smykers get dunked on.

Note that someone who has smite and a smyker are not the same thing.

A smyker is someone who uses smite all of the time.

1 poxer. smite.

smite the monster

smite the horde in a bad location with the enemeis all spread out

staying back still smiting that horde, not able to keep up a decent pace

Using smite to almost force good positioning, push things into choke points, restabilizing a situation etc are good uses.

[scarlet barn]

whats a bistol?

[quiet inlet]

bolt pistol

[scarlet barn]

why do yall speak in code

very hard for new people

[quiet inlet]

phone typing

[hollow summit]

What's the point of lightning staff

[strong gulch]

We say these thing everyday multiple times a day. Thing get shortened.

There a list of the more psyker specific ones in the pins.

Anytime there is a word that is not familar, ask.

[strong gulch]

Special, smaller elites, and scattered shooter killing.

There is a LBM build that can basically replace a gun, and a RMB build that has easier targeting, some CC, and is a SB snowballer for left side talents.

[hollow summit]

What's sb

[strong gulch]

other acronyms in the pins or build bonanza.

SB = soulbalze

[hollow summit]

Range is kinda shit isnt it

[strong gulch]

no

Lmb has long and RMB can hit up to 25m.

[hollow summit]

So far i prefer voidstrike

[hollow bluff]

Hey Potato, I've been reading your threads today while trying to craft an assail build. I'm partial to using non psyker weapons on psyker, and especially guns but I don't mind psyker melee.

Anyway do you think assail would work well with an agripinaa shotgun (the slugs)? What melee weapon do you suggest (besides dueling sword and combat blade)?

[tulip kettle]

im not potato but i can read their mind

yes, and force great sword (MK6)

[hollow bluff]

lol I'll take any reccs, thanks for replying

[wraith sphinx]

abbreviations are good and cool

[strong gulch]

Assail pairs well with most things. You can basically assail and melee and mostly ignore gun if you like to fight. Some people like shotgun, but if you have assail and FGS, it just works.

FGS, obscurus, and deimos are melee psyker's friend. You of course can do DS, knife, rashad, etc.

[wraith sphinx]

not all are equal though, like why tf is twin linked stubber called twink

[hollow bluff]

I've been seeing LOT'S of force greatsword talk. It looks fun (and the sound it makes is sexy as hell) but the farming kills to warpslash seems greedy and on my difficulties so far everything seems to die before I can make use of it. Although I eventually plan for Havoc. I play Damnation rn.

[tulip kettle]

CLAD IS ONLINE

[strong gulch]

Most people take recon, vraks 5, or laspistol. But you can do silly things with shotguns.

[tulip kettle]

THE FRICK

[wraith sphinx]

this is not an issue in auric

there will be so much stuff to kill you cannot worry about kill stealing

[strong gulch]

If you don't want to do much psyker stuff but do want SG and such, talk to @quiet inlet about fyker. The least psykery psyker.

[hollow bluff]

loveee my recon lasgun psyker build so I'm switching it up. But it'll still work with assail huh? When would I use assail vs recon lasgun?

rn there's so much ammo with hivescum and vets around

[tulip kettle]

assail clears hordes gooderer

procs malefic momentum

gun goes brrr into reapers gunner blobs and bosses

[hollow bluff]

thanks, i love playing psyker but only using magic thru blitz or melee

[strong gulch]

You want to weave assail in between non warp attacks to keep MM up

[hollow bluff]

got it

kinda like the combat specialist on vet rhythm

[strong gulch]

That is true whether you gun or melee a lot.

[wraith sphinx]

sorry, the what?

[strong gulch]

it's a thing

Sharpest blunt

[wraith sphinx]

no I mean

[strong gulch]

bluntest sharp

[hollow bluff]

we gotta know what the f in fyker is for

[wraith sphinx]

what's fyker mean

[strong gulch]

@quiet inlet fyker

say your piece

[wraith sphinx]

if it's scrier's gaze meleeker with kinetic flayer brain burst I will scream

[strong gulch]

ye

no mm

[quiet inlet]

just fight, fuck space magic

[hollow bluff]

lmao that's my main build

ig I'm a fyker

[wraith sphinx]

That's literally what I've been telling people about since bound by duty dropped, this is stolen valor

[hollow bluff]

I've ran it since it was bad

[wraith sphinx]

holy shit same?

[hollow bluff]

even in the beta i ran gun psyker

[vestal trench]

i just had a psyker in pubs do left click purg spam

wtf

[hollow bluff]

i love the latest brain burst change

[wraith sphinx]

the point tax on pre-bbd bb gunker made me want to peril myself but I ran it anyways

[strong gulch]

It was buffed to make KF actually real recently tho. (real for SG)

[hollow bluff]

it was worth it to see the satisfying rager skull pop as I recon lassed hordes to flames

[quiet inlet]

if you want to play psyker, but mostly want to fight, be a fyker

[royal totem]

Im having trouble finding ammo these days

[wraith sphinx]

Yeah, that's the bound by duty change, no?

[strong gulch]

no

[wraith sphinx]

I did the same with shredder auto

[strong gulch]

Like scum recently

[wraith sphinx]

oh. what was the buff? I missed it

[hollow bluff]

pre or post pinning fire changes?

[pale prairie]

holy shit my mods aren't throwing errors. lets see if it still crashes though

[wraith sphinx]

post, I'm a darktide zoomer

[strong gulch]

KF can proc and doesn't just go on cooldown at critical peril and higher now.

[wraith sphinx]

kf with no cooldown??

[pale prairie]

no more like no false procs

[hollow bluff]

dear lord, welcome to the Salty Spitoon

[wraith sphinx]

oh cool

[strong gulch]

Oh I see party full.

[wraith sphinx]

The community's passionate hatred for gun psyker in all forms kept me going

[strong gulch]

No It still has a cool down like normal. Before it would just go on cooldown and not proc at crital peril or higher.

[wraith sphinx]

I see

[strong gulch]

Instead of just not proccing.

[wraith sphinx]

that's pretty awesome then!

[strong gulch]

ye

[wraith sphinx]

I still kinda miss those days. Playing psyker felt so... humbling

[pale prairie]

just with randos

[wraith sphinx]

I'm tempted to try a 0 talent psyker run on damnation/auric but I don't want to get flamed for griefing

[honest moon]

Hello. Scoreboard keeps crashing my game during matches. Is there a way to fix it, for now?

[hollow bluff]

I use tac axe on my main fyker build. That's fine right? (fun ofc it is but i mean how is it in viability)

[wraith sphinx]

definitely.

[pale prairie]

first did you update it? second did you install ovenproof plugin? third did you install the community patch for ovenproof?

Mine is working so far but I haven't gotten to scoreboard screen yet so maybe it breaks game

[hollow bluff]

def a priv game or game with all friendlies first

[wraith sphinx]

the great thing about sg is that it's very weapon agnostic

[hollow bluff]

sg is shotgun here? combat shotties

i do love my shotties

[wraith sphinx]

um scrier's gaze lol

[hollow bluff]

ahhh

[honest moon]

It breaks during the game probably due to some of the hivescum talents? I cant' tell, it's the "ammo part" that breaks it. I haven't done those things. Nexusmods says last update 26 of March

[wraith sphinx]

but yeah! any weapon goes

[hollow bluff]

got it

[wraith sphinx]

I've even had fun with the heavy sword on aurics w scrier's gaze

[hollow bluff]

i will experiment with slug combat shotgun/assail/and some force swords later

[pale prairie]

Numeric UI needs an update too

[hollow bluff]

it's been a very long time since I've used force swords

[pale prairie]

there are two more mods that should be installed: OVENPROOF PLUG IN

[royal totem]

ok........time to try out chaos hive scum

[pale prairie]

THEN OVENPROOF PLUGIN COMMUNITY PATCH

[honest moon]

I understand those two will fix the scoreboard?

[pale prairie]

not having errors right now but doing my first run now

[strong gulch]

Taxe good

[honest moon]

Thank you

[pale prairie]

kay scoreboard still causing crash

[hollow bluff]

Also anyone know if full bore/no respite are best in slot for agripinaa combat shotgun?

[strong gulch]

you have this?
https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/514

[strong gulch]

I am not well versed in shotguns. You can probably default to the vet guide. IDK how different their needs are vs ours on shotguns.

[pale prairie]

yes

[strong gulch]

DMF and DML updated?

[pale prairie]

yep

[strong gulch]

I haven't fired the game up today so I could be fecked too.

[hollow bluff]

holy image

[strong gulch]

Maybe syllo's fix?

[hollow bluff]

Thanks, I think that MAY be where I got it from while crawling the discord but I'll look into the pins again to be sure.

[hollow summit]

Idk what blitz I want

Brainburst feels slow, smite is basically shadow shaman shackles from dota 2

[strong gulch]

IDK if this will fix anything @pale prairie .

From the 3rd.

#psyker-class message

[hollow summit]

And assail shots are deceptively high peril

[strong gulch]

Wait, these. #psyker-class message

[honest moon]

F

[strong gulch]

I will fire up game to see I I am having issues.

I got a cassette. get checkpointed nerd

[hollow summit]

Guess I'll stick with the free brain burst on elites for now...

[strong gulch]

Try SG with WU (warp unbound). Pop SG and melee or gun then dump assail

[hollow summit]

Wat

[hollow bluff]

i use brain burst when feeling blitzless because of kinetic flayer

[hollow summit]

Ye, im trust 15 lol

[rare arrow]

Picking up ammo crashes my game, I have the error does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix it if I share the error?

[hollow bluff]

Also sorry for the ping but @tulip kettle @strong gulch @wraith sphinx Thoughts on chainsword/chainaxe on psyker?

[restive slate]

Pardon me

Are the mods fixed yet? I tried enabling but the game crashed

[hollow bluff]

depends on the mods, keep swinging and its derivatives work for me. Then again I haven't played since last night's hotfix. It seems scoreboard has some issues that crashes the game rn.

[strong gulch]

To mitigate assail peril gen try SG WU. You can cast at 100% peril and not explode when WU is active. LMB does less peril gen and RMB does more.

[hollow bluff]

modded?

[restive slate]

Ahhhh thankies, I'll try out again

[strong gulch]

bad

[rare arrow]

Yes, specifically an issue with the scoreboard mod it seems

[strong gulch]

do it if it makes you happy

[hollow summit]

What's the difference between lmb rmb

[strong gulch]

Chainaxe with VB has a special place in my heart.

[hollow bluff]

left click is fast lower damage, right click is opposite

also peril charge difference

[hollow summit]

Hmm

[hollow bluff]

faster and weaker = less peril per shard

[hollow bluff]

you're so real for that (i don't know what vb is) I like the rev it up blessing on chain weapons even if it's an opportunity cost.

[strong gulch]

LMB comes out more quickly, gens less peril, and tries to go where you are looking. RMB is more peril and damage, aimed, but takes longer to do.

[strong gulch]

voidblast

[hollow bluff]

ahhh so super off meta. One day sibling, one day.

or am i thinking of voidstrike

the ball one

[royal totem]

voidblast is meta

voidstrike is.....bad

[strong gulch]

VB is circle on ground

[hollow bluff]

yeah u was thinking of voidstrike lol

i prefer voidstrike

i swear at one point voidstrike was meta

in the past

did i make that time up?

[strong gulch]

blame fatshark for that

continues to be confusing

[hollow bluff]

how it feels to check old threads before they changed the names of all the marks of all weapons for some reason

[zinc phoenix]

Voidbleat is best

[restive slate]

Should be Kinetistrike or smth else to avoid double Voids

[zinc phoenix]

Summons a sheep from the void

[restive slate]

Voidblyat

[zinc phoenix]

How about trauma for voidblast

Aka it’s original name

[restive slate]

Ahhh good ol times

[hollow bluff]

which chainaxe variant do u prefer

i like high attack speed with the one that latches on lights

makes me feel like I'm really sawing thru chaff

[hollow bluff]

it'd be cool if we got new staffs like the ones in vermintide

shotgun staff when?

and unique primary fires

but maybe that's neither here nor there

[royal totem]

never kek.

gamesworkshop says no probs

[hollow bluff]

I don't see why gw would say no here, psyker powers are very varied in the books.

[strong gulch]

@pale prairie I fired a true solo map on scum and did have issues. so idk

[hollow bluff]

I've never actually played the wargame yet so there could be something I don't know.

[strong gulch]

I can drop you my files if they are somehow different that what is available on nexus.

idk what I did tbh

[rare arrow]

are sub stats still limited to 380 points on weapons?

[restive slate]

It is my personal wish ever since trying Psyker for the first time

[strong gulch]

Depends. I think I like the 12 more. Horde clear is not gated by pushing or PA, the PA has a strong stagger, and bleed thunderous memes are funnier (though crusher HP changes made it less funny).

I guess 12 them lol

[vernal temple]

Huh, you know what, after over 2,4k hours in this game I've always thought that Sefoni has a unique face design, like Rannick and Morrow, but turns out no, we can make our reject psyker's face a complete copy of Sefoni

I think Hestia also has a unique face design? And Dukane for sure

[hollow bluff]

is pa= power attack? Is that the special and then a heavy or something else? I understand, I think the 12 is better in the end, but the gimmick of the other one clicks with me.

if the 12 is the non latching

i hope they fix the crusher meta soon, a la chaos knights from vt2

[hollow bluff]

understandable, it plays a small part in why i use guns on psyker instead of staffs

i do like both void staffs tho

[pale prairie]

roger yeah It seems to be an error with scoreboard tracking max ammo. anytime you pick up ammo it crashes

[restive slate]

I vote that Sefoni should be a mangled nugget of a corpse in a jar with her true face appearing in our head when she speaks

[pale prairie]

I already know i am the highest contributor so i don't neeeeeeed it

[strong gulch]

Push attack

Yeah, the 4's lights get me.

[restive slate]

There's so much potential, VT2 has so many staves they could pick from as reference

[strong gulch]

I will try picking up ammo.

[vernal temple]

well her face is scarred already, if you use a free cam mod to look closer

[blissful granite]

Anyone got any tips for melee psyker? How do I deal with crushers maulers, just use my push with force greatsword to knock them down if they pile on me?

[vernal temple]

Basically this is what her face looks like, along with the scar and tattoo

[pale prairie]

Scrier's Gaze and practice dodge mechanics. Kiting is good and great

[verbal thistle]

hit them 1st, FGS has insane range

[restive slate]

Yet her body is in perfect healthy fit condition for one constantly bathing in fluids haha

[verbal thistle]

and can 1-2 tap them

if you are in a long fight with many armor enemies having a stagger or mobility ranged weapon helps

trauma staff for stagger or las pistol for move/dodge speed

[vernal temple]

what if her entire body is hydrophobic and she's not actually soaking in that jar?

[pale prairie]

she is making the fluid

[blissful granite]

So should I be dodging 4 times into force push for melee ?

[restive slate]

Ah so Sefoni is a wet one

[pale prairie]

just stay calm and try to position so they only come one at a time. Your stagger push interrupts even the overhead.

[mighty cipher]

Turns out fall damage is enabled for enemies

[pale prairie]

balance between heavy pokes and stagger pushes while moving backwards so they don't clump around you

[pale prairie]

She is for me

[restive slate]

She may be a dead fish on the bed, mind you

[pale prairie]

give me a tag if you figure out a fix

[strong gulch]

In ture solo and meat grinder I was able to pick up ammo.

[pale prairie]

bruh she creates entire training scenarios in her fucking head. that kind of creativity is definitely not dead gish

[pale prairie]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[strong gulch]

I will try live mission.

[hollow bluff]

🤦‍ ofc, I should have known. For me I use push attacks near constantly (a habit from years of taxe use) so it's more of a pro than con to me.

[restive slate]

In her head, exactly. Physically might be a different case haha

[pale prairie]

What is pleasure but the electrical synapses in your brain firing. She can push those buttons without moving a finger.

[strong gulch]

maybe it's because I have scoreboard srt up dumb

Stop eating ogryn rations and take more fibre should fix the problem in 2-3 days

okay i've now made the most troll stim. it gives +6.25% cd

and that's it

[royal totem]

also, good thing nobody has clips of me playing

[zealous wing]

surely

not like i have one

[blissful granite]

Wdym I have a clip on youtube of clutching you in havoc 40 with 200,000 views

https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=BabGA6qQ9Wpcbnge

Is that not u?

[zealous wing]

lmfao

[strong gulch]

@pale prairie I have DMF, DML, and scordboard updated from nexus.

IDK which I did first or last but here's what I have for Ovenproof's scoreboad plugin. I think it's older than what's up on nexus but with with some combination of syllo's fixes.

See if replacing what you have with those fixes anything.

[main wyvern]

I like smite but I rarely use it. Just like an o shit button if I'm cornered with crushers.

O whoops I'm replying to something from 2 hours ago

[strong gulch]

I also have ammo pickups disabled in NumericUI from a previous bug, idk if that would have any impact tho.

I don't know code things

[heavy dagger]

is the electro staff strong?

[strong gulch]

ye

[heavy dagger]

i played with someone using it yesterday and he was killing everything lmfao

[strong gulch]

doesn't scale into high havocs as well as inferno or VB, but ye is very strong in aurics and maels

[heavy dagger]

good to know

[royal totem]

surge surge though

[strong gulch]

Still does scale like inferno.

Is strong but ye

[royal totem]

i always think scrier's gaze is funny. you're an apex predator for like the 10 seconds of warp unbound

[strong gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/ouro-kronii-im-in-danger-whoops-uh-oh-oh-no-gif-25525826

[void perch]

did they fix hitbox and server

with

erm

the patch

o whtaver it is

[royal totem]

i didn't read anything about them fixing that

but idk

[plucky flax]

Fix deez

[long wharf]

nope

but they acknowledged it, at least

the hotfix fucked up scanning-distance-discovery on scanning targets

also, the hotfix "fixed" stim box proccing Chemical Dependency

and in doing so, highlighted the awkwardness in using stim box with chemical dependency via cooldowns

[zinc phoenix]

??

[long wharf]

you can get the stim box back faster than you can get the stim cooldown

[restive slate]

What's the awkwardness? Enlighten please

[long wharf]

which means you can frequently place your stim box, getting the stim effects, without using the stim itself

[zinc phoenix]

Yeah but that’s whatever, you can do the same thing with stim collector

[long wharf]

stim keeps its current cooldown timer, which frequently becomes available shortly after you've deployed your stim box

[zinc phoenix]

Real question is why does chem dependency even exist 😂

[strong gulch]

Ye. Karien and hexis were play hot potato with stim and tossing a box down.

[long wharf]

so you can effectively double-tap stim boxes in close timing

honestly, Chemical Dependency needs a redesign

having a capstone ability that, without modifiers, just boosts cooldowns is extremely lackluster

[heavy dagger]

would this build work with shriek over bubble..?? i mainly play auric mael https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9df8cf62-74bb-407a-b6ab-b942ad63597d/the-best-psyker-build-rats-trauma-psyker

[long wharf]

extremely unimaginative

the fix to what I described above is to have the node that makes the stim box available when stim becomes available to also reset the stim cooldown when you deploy the stim box

[zinc phoenix]

I’d just change chem dep to make stims more powerful

Since that’s at least cool and gives you the ability to do something other than CDR stim 😂

[long wharf]

I'd change it to be something chem toxin focused

[strong gulch]

Be advised that rat has a very specific play style that does not suit most player's.

If you switch to shriek you should do a nexus + blazing spirit VB because the added crits will add more damage and survivability.

Take a look in the pins for that.

[long wharf]

like, for example, the mortis trial chem toxin spreading effect

[heavy dagger]

thank you

[zinc phoenix]

Toxin is already comically strong tho, the base effect would have to stop being ridiculous to have a buff node

[long wharf]

not buff the damage

make it self-spreading, reasonably

that's just one idea

the Scummer talent tree is, upon closer inspection, not imaginative at all

almost like FartShack decided they needed an easy money maker out before Xmas

[deft stump]

And giggling to heck.

[strong gulch]

yes

[long wharf]

getting a Chem Dependency stack just for sniffing someone else's stim was a bad call, IMO

[strong gulch]

It's like getting excited because you got to hold a stimm.

[long wharf]

yeah

Premature Capstone Proccing is a serious problem, consult your doctor today

[strong gulch]

stimming from a stim but not because you took the drug

it's just your special interest

[long wharf]

rename the class to Fart Sniffer

also, I'm glad that they bumped up the numbers a little on the rocket launcher, but it's still not enough

RL needs two upgrade nodes

one lowers blast radius but gives great single target damage with cleave for the blast cone

the other greatly increases max damage blast area

[ripe obsidian]

I am pleased they reworked the tree a little.

And fixed Hyper Critical

[blissful granite]

What should I name my melee psyker who uses force greatsword

[long wharf]

oh yeah, the way they switched nodes means there's no reason for every build to have the important survivability nodes now

still need a two point dip to get Hive Brawler, but it's worth it

[deft stump]

I hate the switch. Not enough points for the nodes I want.

And I don't even need the survivablity since it does jack for me anyway. If I get reaper'd or gunner'd, I'm literally good as dead.

[long wharf]

focused? absolutely

but that split second between dodge windows? crucial

[deft stump]

The forced middle node to go from slide dodge into gunslinger.

[sturdy reef]

the rocket launcher change and the chem dependency change was the best

[ripe obsidian]

It freed up a point for me

[long wharf]

I think the fix for Chem Dependency is shining a light on its need for a rework

[deft stump]

It ate 2 points and I still can't get back what I want.

Nor afford hyper-critical.

[ripe obsidian]

This is what I am sitting on atm

[blissful granite]

Anyone else think it sucks they fixed the cape clipping for the zealot on the new Athonian cosmetics but didnt do shit for us psykers

Like wtf is that

I had to refund it because it clips so terribly with itself. The arms clip through the cape constantly walking around the mourningstar, or even rotating it in the shop screen

[potent echo]

You can refund premium cosmetics?

[blissful granite]

Yea you go to the forum and make a refund request

[potent echo]

[blissful granite]

If you bought within i think the last 2 weeks they will give u ur Aquilas back and take the cosmetics

[potent echo]

Good to know

[blissful granite]

Should just be an option in game tbh but yea

[deft stump]

No hyper critical, no Toxinmania.

No Toxin Renewal if I go down toxin mania.

[long wharf]

you don't really need that node to the lower-right in the middle block

[ripe obsidian]

I have found toxin application on melee to be iffy, honestly

My uptime on Toxin Mania is sub 40% even doing a solo auric

Things just die too quickly

[weary crane]

Toxin mania seems to stack infinitely

[deft stump]

I use blinders for that if I remember.

[ripe obsidian]

No, it caps at 3

[weary crane]

Why does it display more then

[ripe obsidian]

For fun

[long wharf]

that doesn't sound right

[deft stump]

I know. But I'm used to having more to panic with.

[ripe obsidian]

Based on the number of enemies who are affected by Chem Toxin within 12.5m of Hive Scum, increases any damage by up to 15%; stacks additively with other damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs. Checks every 0.2s for toxined enemies in range. Since each toxined enemy increases damage by 5%, the maximum buff value of 15% is granted when at least 3 toxined enemies are in range.

[long wharf]

well, that's the node I'd free up for Toxin Mania

[long wharf]

that's why you dance around the crowd

[deft stump]

I also run it while running toxic renewal.

[long wharf]

having three enemies around me toxed up is easy

[weary crane]

Y'all aren't ready for my build

[long wharf]

I was ran an auric mortis going full toxic commander earlier

full stim box nodes, full chem dependency nodes

it was, frankly, stupid

[weary crane]

Yup, I got 1.4 million toxin damage in havoc

[long wharf]

shivs only for applying more toxin

[deft stump]

I feel the box explody is a meme.

[ripe obsidian]

Not with my build. They die instantly. I am one-shotting anything smaller than a mauler with LMB when in rampage and adrenaline

[long wharf]

I love exploding stim boxes

[long wharf]

what weapon?

[ripe obsidian]

Mk 1 shivs

[long wharf]

oh well yeah, in rampage and adrenaline

[deft stump]

Just so hard to really hit with it.

[long wharf]

I don't use shivs with that

I go crowbar

[weary crane]

For the box nodes you either take them all or none

[ripe obsidian]

Shivs are more fun for me than crowbar. Even if I lose track of where I am because zooooom

[long wharf]

boy does it ever zoom

it's almost too much for me

[deft stump]

Pifft. I wanna be able to run off and stab things.

[weary crane]

Shivs are just a better combat knife

[long wharf]

I'm considering using the auto-attack mod just for shivs

[heavy dagger]

best way to play voidblast is by spamming rmb right

[long wharf]

way too much clicking

[ripe obsidian]

It can be too much for me

[long wharf]

I feel so try-hard clicking as fast as I can while dodging constantly

I hate combat knife play, but for some reason shivs are okay (barely)

[weary crane]

Faster attack speed, easier attack pattern, and toxin knives

[craggy mulch]

are we just not blowin up rn

[deft stump]

I question the easier attack patterns. They are both equally braindead.

[long wharf]

shivs getting free throwing knives is absolutely r-word

no reason for a melee weapon to get a whole-ass Zealot perk built-in

[royal totem]

zealots are obsolete

[weary crane]

Hive scum is weak remember

[deft stump]

Is to rub it in.

[potent echo]

Or dual autos with free run and gun

[long wharf]

aside from big hammer bonk, yes

[potent echo]

Zealot has twbs though

[royal totem]

the hell is twbs

[deft stump]

Thy wrath be swift.

[potent echo]

Thy wrath be swift

[weary crane]

And an extra life lol

[deft stump]

Zealots also feel faster if you need to run around in general still.

[ripe obsidian]

Same. Combat knife is >:( but shivs are :)

[long wharf]

faster than Scummer?

[potent echo]

Book support while still having decent damage, and yea ability to sprint while holding heavies

[long wharf]

book support got nerfed into meme territory

[ripe obsidian]

Agreed

[potent echo]

Did it though

[deft stump]

At least the nonsense stealth build I have.

[long wharf]

okay

[ripe obsidian]

With everything but inferno and EK RMB, yes

[potent echo]

I get unlimited voidblasts?

[deft stump]

You will need to use a maxed blu stimm on mobility to go fast. Zealots just do it free in a way.

[ripe obsidian]

Hive Scum is weak if people don't know how to dodge. And shivs are weak if people can't hit headshots.

[ripe obsidian]

For now.

[deft stump]

This is just knoife 2.0.

[potent echo]

Guess I'll just play scum this week

[deft stump]

You be sad if you don't backstab or facestab.

[potent echo]

I assume shivs also get the innate backstab rending like combat knife

[royal totem]

i need Karien help\

[deft stump]

Well, I do more than single digits poking the back of crushers, does it count?

[heavy dagger]

penetration of the soul is useless for voidblast and shriek right

[deft stump]

Wot. I don't carry.

[zinc phoenix]

im doing some mega fuckin heresy tonight

yes indeed i am a dirty little heretic

[royal totem]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a08e5d7b-24a0-447e-955d-be37cb016a6d/lol-zealot?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button

i'm looking to free up one point and i'm not sure what to take off

[deft stump]

You asking me? That person with 3 meme builds for zealot?

[royal totem]

yes

not too many people i trust so yeah

[deft stump]

If you solo frontline, you get the least use out of unseen blade unless you abuse stealth.

Is just me.

[royal totem]

mmmm i see

i think i have to unseen blade to go down the tree though 🤔

[deft stump]

Cos ppl aggro more to things they first see. Could be good to murder the mutie or rager on someone else though.

[heavy dagger]

emphatic evasion makes sense with shriek VB?

[deft stump]

Thus, the worst thing is that.

I guess you can sacrifice prime target.

[royal totem]

what you think i should take shield of contempt instead? xD

welp,

[deft stump]

Actually, left node in the middle. Lul.

[royal totem]

i sacrificed prime target for Purge the Unclean

[deft stump]

Is just enemy within but damage

[potent echo]

You can but I rather use it to pick another defensive talent

[heavy dagger]

quietude sounds better

[potent echo]

Like kd if you haven't already

[deft stump]

Honestly, just think in the role you do. Prime target is nice but the vet or scum should be the one killing specials and elites usually. You just hit the ones they fail to catch.

[royal totem]

srry the scum and vet are always dead 😏

[deft stump]

Or the melee stuff if they aren't krak'd off the face of the world.

[deft stump]

Fine, the uncanny flamer psyker.

[potent echo]

Pub players are mostly fine if you cover their butties

Runs always end because of specials from behibd

[royal totem]

are they named Unsanctioned, Spoony, or Hamdolsun? if not i don't trust them

[deft stump]

Or ehm, and suddenly, massive armoured wave at the back.

[potent echo]

That's the fun ones 🤤

[deft stump]

Where Hex?

[potent echo]

Playing special rearguard gets boring after awhile

[deft stump]

Where Beans?

[royal totem]

i don't play with Hexis and i don't think i've ever seen Beans inferno

[deft stump]

Where Papa?

[royal totem]

never played with Papa

[deft stump]

Well, Beans is more, fire trauma.

[royal totem]

whenever i log in Hexis is already in a strike team lmao

[deft stump]

I usually have to ask to play.

[royal totem]

i don't ask people to play

playing with people is too hard for me

[deft stump]

Playing with pubs is harder.

[ripe obsidian]

Karien is a master of all weapons and playstyles

[royal totem]

playing with pubs

is way easier

what are you talking about

[deft stump]

Like idiots starting atonement when everyone had no hp but me.

Only because my ganger playstyle is literally, if I get get hit, I'm basically dead due to 300+ ping.

[royal totem]

pubs expect nothing of me

so like if i do badly it doesn't feel bad

if i play with friends and i do badly

i feel bad and want to curl up into a little ball and die

so playing with pubs is easier

[deft stump]

Pubs expect me to clutch but when I do, there's no thanks.

[royal totem]

oh yeah. you'll clutch for them and they snatch all the ammo and grenades anyways

[deft stump]

And it's extra hard cos I'm trying to get ganger wins and can't clutch with it.

[royal totem]

idk. i just play heresy

[deft stump]

I just need blind or blind or fart missions and like 30 auric wins or so.

I find it funny the only auric win I got, I had to play blind as kark.

[royal totem]

why?

[deft stump]

Lights out.

I see black with a small circle of barest of vision in the center.

Penances as well.

[zinc phoenix]

this is really funny with the "perils of the warp is broken" bug

you sg once to turn off auto quell at 100 and can smite for basically however long you feel like it

warp ghost is honestly throwing b/c you dont get the toughness regen when you play like a total idiot LOL

anyway i tested it and it totally works, you cant die to peril so you can just keep doing whatever forever

[astral finch]

Okay. I've done some play testing, got something alittle different

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a07e055c-3eba-4e39-bc70-2ceab382740c/melee-psyker-2-2

This build feels as tanky as I need it to be, BR for ranged, staff and FGS for horde clear, staff procs the various SB stuffs that I have. This feels REALLY tanky, but I somewhat struggle with ranged targets, but that's I GUESS the downside to this build. Quietude and BCoB have a sort of feedback loop with Quelling and toughness regen.

[heavy dagger]

not bad for my first time using voidblast i guess

[royal totem]

i hate lights out

[astral finch]

If there is ANYTHING you guys think I can sub out to be able to pick up OwtW, I'd appreciate the input.

[royal totem]

probs warp expenditure?

unsure

[heavy dagger]

yall prefer dueling sword or force sword deimos with voidblast?

[astral finch]

Good idea, I have quite a bit of toughness regen already.

[royal totem]

wait

why is this a melee using inferno?

i saw inferno and instantly thought burn but just realized LOL

[astral finch]

Oh its a hoot

So

[zinc phoenix]

Right side purgatus doesn’t work well

[astral finch]

Flame staff CURRENTLY has 10% Warp Res, so it builds peril FAST, applies SB, swap to FGS, bonk heads, quell, regen toughness from Souldrinker plus 5%crit chance, quell and regen toughness from quietude, wildfire procs, whole buncha good stuff

Sorry, 14%

[zinc phoenix]

You could save yourself a lot of effort for pretty much the same result by ditching souldrinker, taking more effective perks on the sword and just killing stuff with it

[astral finch]

I almost PRIMARILY keep sword in hand

I might actually do away with Blaze Away, I rarely alt fire

[zinc phoenix]

I play FGS mk8 pretty regularly. Just having sg, quietude, Bcob and warp splitting already gives you obscene amounts of toughness

And you’re giving up warp splitting for this wacky build 😂

[blissful granite]

I keep getting shit on as melee psyker in havoc

[astral finch]

Warp Splitting and BCoB seem counter intuitive to one another personally, plus I dropped assail, didn't feel like I needed it

[blissful granite]

The gunners just fuck me up

[zinc phoenix]

What havoc level?

[blissful granite]

I have true survivor but any havoc level besides low havoc im just getting shit on

Other classes like arbites i can do well but psyker melee is just not working for me

[zinc phoenix]

Have you played it outside of havoc at all or is this new for you?

[blissful granite]

Yea I can do alright in aurics but everyone 1 shots me in havoc

[royal totem]

empathic evasion with gun just go pew pew pew and you count as dodging

[zinc phoenix]

Like I do pretty well with bubble knight in havoc but I’ve been playing melee psyker for years

Mostly it’s about when you engage and making sure to dip out

Is very much a slide all the time build

[blissful granite]

Use gun to proc empathic evasion?

[zinc phoenix]

Yeah and assail

You want to attack constantly while sliding ideally

[royal totem]

recon lasgun can force empathic evasion yeah

[zinc phoenix]

It’s not enough to let you walk at gunners thru the open

But it is enough that if you’re in melee you should be good

[cedar delta]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a0587485-500b-4eae-b692-a65c30deb888/jedi-master-psyker?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button

this good melee build?

[zinc phoenix]

No, check the pins

[royal totem]

why smite?

[zinc phoenix]

smite rn is funny because peril don’t work

So if you sg while smite, it lasts forever

[half pebble]

can anyone else not overload

[royal totem]

can only overload on inferno and EK RMB right now

[half pebble]

why no overload

[half pebble]

thats an absurdly massive oversight

[royal totem]

yeah it is. but like i'm sure it'll be fixed very soon

[half pebble]

please be soon

oml psykers just being invincible

[prime elk]

The psyker buffs will continue until morale improves (morale has not improved in years)

[royal totem]

lmao.

[heavy dagger]

in fire reborn or psychic vampire?

[royal totem]

for fire staff?

[heavy dagger]

void blast and shriek

[royal totem]

if you're doing blazing trauma do in fire reborn

[heavy dagger]

ok bet thanks

[astral finch]

I just wanna NOT take a Blitz, I swear

[heavy dagger]

im debating if i should take just a dream on voidblast and shriek

over puppet master and penetration of the soul

[royal totem]

why? lol

[royal totem]

not personally a fan but maybe you can make it work for you

[astral finch]

I just find that, in how I play and what my janky ass build is, I never really use any of em tbh

[heavy dagger]

me neither lol, i just don’t know what to use my extra point on. i can probably take kinetic resonance

[royal totem]

just take brain burst with kinetic flayer then. passive procs will add a good bit of damage

[royal totem]

i'm a big fan of kinetic resonance but most people arent

[astral finch]

That's TWO points of an investment.

[royal totem]

yes for quite a bit of damage

[heavy dagger]

i mean i don’t think emphatic evasion makes sense on a voidblast build compared to inferno or am i wrong?

it’s either that or KR

[royal totem]

i don't feel it does personally. so i'm a little uncertain. but @strong gulch might know whether it does better than me

[astral finch]

Im strained for talent points as is, and with JaD and OwtW, I kinda wanna put warp splitting back on and I dont really know where else I can lose a point lol

[heavy dagger]

thanks for your opinion

[ripe obsidian]

EE is not bad on fire trauma. Is bad on rending trauma

Also, I kinda don't like Psychic Vampire in any build

[heavy dagger]

okkk thank you

my build does crit a lot i’ll put EE on

[ripe obsidian]

It definitely does give you stacks, but it feels so limited

1 stack per 25 kills in coherency is bleh.

[heavy dagger]

yea that is mid

[plucky flax]

Nah you get more if youre good

[ripe obsidian]

In Fire Reborn is not coherency limited and the enemy does not have to die to fire

[ripe obsidian]

Being good has nothing to do with Psychic Vampire

It's 4% chance of a stack on an enemy death in coherency

[heavy dagger]

playing with 3 scum as a psyker pray for me

[plucky flax]

You get from killing specials and elites too

[ripe obsidian]

That has nothing to do with Psychic Vampire.

[silver echo]

so can psyker really not blow themselves up right now? just saw a reddit video of someone not blowing up trauma spamming with bubble

[plucky flax]

Thats on top of psychic vanpire

I use it with rending trauma and surge

[ripe obsidian]

Can only blow up with inferno or electro RMB afaik

[silver echo]

certified fatshark moment

[ripe obsidian]

Yes, but I am saying Psychic Vampire adds very little value. I still pick it, but I don't like it

[plucky flax]

You said you dont pick on any build

[strong gulch]

EE is decent on fire VB. Especially when ranged units are suppression immune or scattered. LMB is sometimes the answer.

[plucky flax]

Wtf you gonna do with rend trauma

[heavy dagger]

thank you bro

is it just me or a lot of scum rush ahead and leave a big ass horde behind them

[royal totem]

i rush ahead as scum 😄

[ripe obsidian]

No, I said I don't like it on any build

That is different

[strong gulch]

I would personally only take Psychic Vampire if I don't personally have much or any SB and there's a chance that I'm going to live longer than my inferno teammate.

This assumes I'm non-SB second psyker.

[strong gulch]

Scum is basically close range and need to be killing stuff to live.

So if they rush ahead on a killing spree and a teammate is behind, the game spawns shit.

[heavy dagger]

makes sense

one time a big horde of crushers just spawned behind me and game over lmao

[royal totem]

especially if they're running like rampage and adrenaline

[heavy dagger]

this is a dumb question but does the 5% crit aura stack with scums or no?

[astral finch]

So, Penetrating Flames, would it work okay as a Carapace armor debuff?

[dull scroll]

use a forcesword with uncanny, spam force push to proc it, much better

[astral finch]

I use FGS

[restive roost]

Melee psyker is so cracked, FSG is just better relic blade.

[dull scroll]

you use FGS, as a secondary on a staff build, bad choice

[restive roost]

I'm just so dogwater at staying alive lmao

[astral finch]

Its working pretty well so far

[restive roost]

But I guess scryer's gaze is the oh shit button?

[astral finch]

The funny thing is that the FGS is just about the only thing I use, the Staff isnt even a secondary, its tertiary, a sidearm. FGS is the star of the show and rarely leaves my hand

[urban creek]

Scryers gaze is the booger Sugar button for us melee space wizards

GOTTA GO FAST

[sturdy reef]

god the increased player hitbox is annoying

[ripe obsidian]

It should

[sturdy reef]

it does stack

[strong gulch]

It's not really worth it for that.

[plucky flax]

For everyone?

[sturdy reef]

yes

[plucky flax]

Hmm reapers gonna be more annoying now

I die in 0.1s rather than 0.2s

[sturdy reef]

try spawn lol

move u everywhere

[royal totem]

is that a bug or no?

[sturdy reef]

yes

[heavy dagger]

umm there’s a unlimited peril bug

[sturdy reef]

at least i hope

[royal totem]

sorry. we've all mutated into Ogryns

[scarlet barn]

whats the big difference between blaze force sword and great sword

[royal totem]

one is slow and hits harder

kinda

[restive roost]

I carry a laspistol instead of a staff. To shoot the fellas that glow blue.

[royal totem]

in general FGS has much better horde clear than deimos or obscurus force sword but it's a slow weapon

[restive roost]

It's pretty fast for a slow weapon, don't let it deter anyone from trying it out

[heavy dagger]

is this bad for someone new to voidblast? my second game

[mortal notch]

Does penetration of the soul work yet?

i know for close to a year it didnt

[last shore]

Copying @plucky flax name

only class I know its good on for sure is vet

[heavy dagger]

everyday we eat good

[royal totem]

i run revive speed on every curio

[ripe obsidian]

It works. Just isn't good in most builds

[mortal notch]

not even the burn build for havoc 40?

[plucky flax]

No

[heavy dagger]

best blessings and perks for force sword deimos?

[heavy dagger]

heard thats really good

[royal totem]

it is cuz lets you pickup teammates from both down and dead faster

[heavy dagger]

might replace combat regen with that

[plucky flax]

Not cdr cos you want to spam your ability

[heavy dagger]

health would be better eh

[royal totem]

i'm naughty so i drop toughness for that 🙂

[heavy dagger]

[ripe obsidian]

Maniac, carapace, uncanny, superiority or deflector

[heavy dagger]

thanks

[heavy dagger]

what about uncanny and slaught?

[ripe obsidian]

Ehhhh

Deimos doesn't have great horde clear

[heavy dagger]

ah ok

[ripe obsidian]

I use it to poke specials, crushers, or spam push attack to build uncanny stacks

[heavy dagger]

bet thanks

[strong gulch]

Only do slaughter on deimos if it's your main weapon.

But that is not how most people use deimos.

[hollow summit]

What's a fun psyker build

So far I know voidblast spam, smite and soulblaze stacking

[patent jacinth]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e477e30-624d-48a3-b54a-8097ca8a4145/simply-just-a-little-tac-axe-psyker

Oh shit the entire build broke

nvm

[strong gulch]

FGS is slower to hit, has longer reach (not including the special), and an infinite cleave special that can be boosted to kill softer elites and hordes. The special can even go through walls, ceilings, or floors to undog a teammate. It's psykers best allrounder weapon.

Force swords are faster to hit and get access to uncanny strikes. Uncanny is a self buff that can boost DoT damage; so force swords are often paired with inferno. Also deimos can knock a crusher on its butt.

[hollow summit]

Assassin type build?

[strong gulch]

IDK what is fun for you. I like RMB EK shriek spam with knife as a mobility stick.

[ripe obsidian]

Friend, countrytoad. I have in the pins many a build. Use them. Love them.

Also melee psyker is probably the most fun.

[patent jacinth]

Go

Run with tac axe and laspistol

Run at things

Hit them

Win

[hollow summit]

Fair nuff

[hollow summit]

Zappy spam?

[patent jacinth]

A good tac axe looks like this

[strong gulch]

Yes laspistol is good monster DPS but you have to head shot to really get that damage.

Vraks 5 is the go to gun for monster killing tho.

Recons is not as good as either of those, but it a well rounded option and easy to use.

[strong gulch]

ye

no smite

Just slide and zap

throw ball sometimes

[hollow summit]

Hmmmmmmm

[heavy dagger]

empowered psionics is the best keystone btw

[strong gulch]

no

only boosts blitz

[heavy dagger]

empowered psi with inferno 🔥

[zealous wing]

lmfao

[ripe obsidian]

DD is the best keystone by a wide margin. Just not best for all builds

[strong gulch]

I am an EP BB enjoyer. I take it into havocs, but EP worst keystone.

[hollow summit]

Some people tell me kinetic flayer bad

[strong gulch]

KF good

[restive roost]

Any cool skins for the FGS?

[strong gulch]

There's 1.

[sturdy reef]

ep bb is nice in havoc

[wise nymph]

The pinned build library here is so useful.

[strong gulch]

Well the free red one for master if cool

[wise nymph]

No. Only one lame one.

[strong gulch]

otherwise there's been 2 paid skins and only one of them good

[wise nymph]

Oh?

Show.

[restive roost]

Yeah show the paid ones

Unfortunately no FGS skins from Hallowette this cycle

[scarlet barn]

Il grab the Vraks

[strong gulch]

I only have vid of the good paid one. Icefall Shard.
https://youtu.be/d9DXWgcDlIE

[restive roost]

Wha

[strong gulch]

The free mastery one is good tho

[patent jacinth]

mk 6 looks good on its own

[strong gulch]

sad true aim stacks

[royal totem]

anybody want to play a game?

[nocturne wasp]

I'll hop on rn

[royal totem]

[nocturne wasp]

Fine by me I'll run whatever

[royal totem]

if you want anything in particular i'm fine with that too

[nocturne wasp]

No preference

[royal totem]

i don't remember if i have you on friends list

apparently not i guess?

inv me when ready

[nocturne wasp]

Guess not just been inviting to party

Just making sure my Scum wasn't borked by the tree rework, still only 19

[royal totem]

i can help you level xD

[nocturne wasp]

Sweet

Friend request sent

Crashed

[royal totem]

i keep thinking whether to buy the cosmetic upgrade for scum

[dull scroll]

Fatshark servers hitting new low

it's so bad out there right now

https://tenor.com/view/the-simpsons-homer-apocalypse-the-end-is-near-gif-7204885

[plucky flax]

Is it worth playing?

[zealous wing]

depends

ive had no issues, but others have

[ripe obsidian]

Hexis, wanna do havocky things?

[zealous wing]

so maybe you get lucky

[deft stump]

Cos flamer is fine.

[zealous wing]

sure, can i be flamer

[ripe obsidian]

Do what thou wishest

I need like 3 minutes

[plucky flax]

Karien I am kind of free now.

Dunno if server issue is affecting asia.

[dull scroll]

Could just be NA West, all the people here can't play shit because the frame rate's tanking below floor level

[plucky flax]

Oh it's a problem with plasma vet apparently.

Play bolter vet for now.

[zealous wing]

issue is on na east and some eu also

[plucky flax]

I saw reddit post saying plasma is killing frames.

[zealous wing]

hive scum also tbh

[dull scroll]

no, nobody is using plasma

in any of the games

[zealous wing]

also tru

[empty bloom]

anyone know what the dump stat for blaze force great sword is?

[zealous wing]

warp resistance

[dull scroll]

also just today my mods are starting to die in the middle of games, red messages on the right side starts to appear non-stop all of a sudden

[empty bloom]

that go for ev=erytbhing?

[deft stump]

Dunno. All I know is US W is unplayable.

[zealous wing]

basically yes. theres a few niche exceptions but, generally, warp res

well, and void strike, but id call that niche as well

warp res always the safe bet, and if you need something more specific to a build, itll say

[ripe obsidian]

Sorry, taking slightly longer than anticipated. Will be there momentarily, I hope

[zealous wing]

no worries

[strong gulch]

Is there room for another in havocs @ripe obsidian @zealous wing ?

[ripe obsidian]

Yes

[strong gulch]

kk

[nocturne wasp]

Thank for the runs

[royal totem]

there's the one game i said @nocturne wasp

the first one where i failed the clutch felt very bad

[nocturne wasp]

Nah thos random were even worse than me

[royal totem]

was so close too ;lkasdj;lkasjdfkl;

[nocturne wasp]

Shouldn't have even needed to

[royal totem]

clutching is fun

[nocturne wasp]

True

[royal totem]

if i had 1 rocket it would have made all the difference

[nocturne wasp]

Lol yep

[royal totem]

i'm actually not even sure how i died that time either but oh well

[nocturne wasp]

Me neither

[royal totem]

the time after i got you up then i just ....died lmao

btw that psyker second game was pretty bad too

but that arb was decent

[nocturne wasp]

Haha yes to both but the arb kept letting shit run up behind us trying to take my kills the whole tine. Anytime I was with him my damage was from behind

It didn't matter how many directions they were coming from he needed the ones right in front of me

[royal totem]

Yeah idk

I soloed obj at end

[nocturne wasp]

I noticed. I kept dying trying to keep up lol

Clearly should have just been babysitting the psyker instead

[iron mulch]

does anyone have any good smite builds i could try out
every build i find is either super old or feels really really underwhelming and weak to use

[ripe obsidian]

I have builds in the pinned guide.

[iron mulch]

small issue

the doc wont load

at all

my discord is refusing to let me see it

[zealous wing]

if discord wont send you to the doc then copy the link into your browser?

[plucky flax]

Is nimble still bugged after latest patch?

[cosmic sigil]

Yes

[summer prairie]

I think it's still good, you've infinite dodges anyway and faster dodges is good
