I found that out.
So yeah, it's below low.
I even turned off as much stuff on the side that I know is okay to.
Even volumetric lighting or something.
Made the game brighter to a degree so no real complains. I can see a little better on darker maps.
Still -40 fps on chem 'nade.
Before exploding enemies.
That's the sub 1 fps part.
It's like DLSS box of boom.
what GPU do you have?
3060ti.
Ninth gen i7.
resolution?
yeah, you definitely shouldn't be struggling
you aren't running other things at the same time, right?
I avg 40 fps current patch.
that's low
I have a 3080(not ti), run at 1440p on a Ryzen something-or-other (two generations old now)
I was considering building a new system next year, but prices have jumped up, so I'm going to wait
Or well, panic spam dodge and lights because dunno what even is happening.
is your GPU in the correct slot on your motherboard?
Is why that nade feels like back to box of boom, but worse.
are you underpowering the GPU?
I have 1 slot for GPU.
Pretty sure you can't kark up with 1 slot.
most likely not
No clue with that.
Running bog standard on an 850 watt psu.
Yes.
even better, you can run a utility to show you power consumption of your hardware
to check that things look right
Old classic but no longer top of the line.
how hot does your CPU get?
this is probably a stupid question but you do clean dust and such from your computer right?
This patch, 96°C tops after I cleaned the thing out.
and you do have decent fans right?
Just DT.
looks at my front filters no
Not even cyberpunk goes over 90°C.
how hot does your GPU get?
dt is potato optimization
Just DT 2.0.
yeah, Darktide isn't well optimized as it is
I turn down ragdolls
disable RTX
you can be robbing yourself of framerate by having antialiasing settings too high, too
If you count the extra fans making more wind tunnel noises, yes.
i have rx 7900xt and can't play it kn max settinge
What AA?
huh. i see
I have everything as low as it gets.
okay
looks at my tower with 8x140
Amen brother
make your discord profile dark it is a flashbang
well, at this point, without going over your system with a fine-toothed troubleshooting comb, there isn't much more to address
sounds like it's definitely something Darktide is doing
It is.
I get 60-70 FPS on med high on Cyberpunk.
I actually can max it if I'm happy with stable 30 FPS without RTX and min crowds.
It's more 40-50 fps then.
Though, I do have too many mods installed for it.
Brittleness stacks just increase damage taken right?
To armoured, more or less.
Would you recommend switching to the blessing that improves secondary charge times instead?
This makes darktide plasma and psyker sound like sone kinda DOAT weapon. "Yeah its damaging reality along with the game"
Flamer, no. EK, yes.
No, for soulfire staff
What ones would you recommend?
Karien likes mods :3
Only for cybersmut 2077.
fair enough xD
@deft stump should i uninstall DT?
Naw.
playing it makes my day worse and brings no joy
Even with friends?
i don't have friends
I need to put that on my own servers so I can spam it.
wait what?
why spam that on your own servers
More, get to spam it multiple times as a react.
Because I can.
._.
new wierd discord feature
i think the DT community is better without me anyways
Wot.
Are you serious?
Yeah shouldn't play if you dont like it
That was sudden
I know, IDK how their brain went from that to that.
Bruh moment
im back, are we chilling here now
Things went downhill.
oof, everything ok?
No, I mean in general.
it do be like that sometimes
Mhm. I'm just WTFing at TGA atm.
C33 hype
TGA? C33?
Servers so bad I can’t do my penances rn. Just started my psyker penances too
Also the game lags to heck anyway. FS.
So it’s not just me? I’m running it with 1gb speed and vpn still no luck
Darn I didn’t have any issues until this recent update. Gonna just give it a few days then

i turned everything to low
Oh. I see.
Still 0.01 FPS to 40 FPS.
In actual gameplay. Standing in an empty room or the start doesn't count.
ur drivers uipdated?
To last good one without issues for me.
hmm idk then, this gpu driver update fixed some frame loss for me
I suck at melee psyker, any tips?
do you have anything more specific?
what weapon are you using?
Force greatsword. I can havoc 40 on zealot but psyker melee I struggle in maelstrom, just seems like I always die to some nonsense lol
well, if its crushers, you can push attack to interrupt them, (and throw maulers/ragers to the ground), other than that you just, dodge more, tbh
Gaming?
me too i also suck at melee psy
its hard to know for sure how to give advice without knowing how you play, but, its not super easy nor forgiving to play melee psyker, unlike zealot which has a lot more talents built around not dying
i can be
did you sleep?
main things are just, learn your attack patterns, use mk6 FGS for more versatility, use your assail, etc
literally just woke up like half an hour ago
ayy same
whats bos on greatswoprd
Eating. Maybe in like 10 minutes.
HELL YEEE
done eating
When the game gives you the correct dump at a cheap price but that's not what this character is for.
what class doesnt want recon
why is melee psyker more fun than zealot for me 
do yall go into brainburst proc on hit with gun psyker build
Usually no.
is this fine for melee psyker?
Does Penetration of the Soul affect smite at all?
Yes, but smite does little damage, so not much
anyone know which crit blessing he's talking about with FGS
Alright, thank you. Was wondering if i could juice its damage
Either
Shred is my preference
Riposte is also good
shred/riposte, i prefer shred
Either riposte or shred. Whichever suits your needs or has the most opportunity for you.
Shred is better if you have a taunt ogryn, there's a lot of CC, or you aren't keeping aggro.
Riposte gives you max percent immediately, procs off EE, and doesn't drop if you hit a dead target or miss.
thanks
thank you
im going to run unstable and shred, instead of wrath with unstable
This is a character specific thing, not a class thing. I am looking for 76s.

@shadow oar ur playing arby? lol
huh
nvm
not allowed because of scum -s
Idk my scunmers name will probably be edward
===========
like ive genuinely seen someone called scumbag
Game doesn't want me to have fun.
I forgot I was fucking around with the plasma gun and completely gimped my character for this Havoc match
It’s an EXE STANCE Las pistol setup that I pretty much exclusively use, so now I’m stuck using a god damn D-Claw solo as a melee vet.
Also is it just me or are Havoc bosses extra tank at the moment?
they seem to be
melee psyk for me is the easiest melee
unironically
Bullied by karien
L karien
Immune to ranged damage on crit and insane toughness regen
And Scrier's Gaze is just goofy
Also big dmg and movement speed boost
Unrelated, I am goofing around with shivs in the psykhanium, and the single-hit damage can get high
that is without Rampage or stimm
Just adrenaline + heavy stabbing random enemies
Kinda tragic how the shivs outclass the saw
Shivs are maybe the best melee weapon in the game atm
I get that the saw applies toxin / rending, but the shivs can do the same with crits and are faster and do more dmg
I think I do way more melee damage with fgs
I am not sure you do, honestly.
Not saying I can outclass you with shivs
Because I cannot.
But I think shivs are better than FGS with Scum's melee talents
I know I do way more melee damage with fgs than shivs
I do more melee damage with shivs than any other melee build I have tried in this game
Fgs is just better vs hordes
Main question is which one has the higher single target dps
Prob shivs but cant back it up
Also not at home so gl testing ig
With a very brief test, I did ~10.5k DPS to a BoN in a controlled environment
Fgs op
no idea how FGS compares
with ramping backstabs?
You can get 15k weakspot in bonbon with fgs and dd stack
ramping backstabs and hyper violence nonsense doesnt count
This is without rampage or stimm
I was not.
then i think scoreboard is lying to you
I was not using hyperviolence or the ramping backstab talent.
Thats low compared to fgs crit bonbon
I've hit like 19k during a havoc on a boss before with debuff
Shivs also hit like 3x before you hit 2x
how r u testing then
I don't test for highest single hit damage
this wasn't active testing, it was just goofing around
the highest I get consistently without hyperviolence nonsense is 8-10k
show me the setup
This is the build. But I am not stacking hyperviolence beforehand.
maybe if you also get adreline frenzy active but then it's not really boss dps
okay you've toxin so it's adding up a 31 toxin tick with your crit damage
when they line up
the highest I can see without toxin is around 8k after pulverising strikes stacks up to +25% power
I don't have frenzy active though
I look at my scoreboard and it shows 12.6k but I know for a fact the highest I've seen is maybe 8k
you are activating frenzy
Yes.
well that doesn't count
"You're using the class"
'It doesn't count'
you are running the elite/special kill node
?
all he said was "This damage > that damage" no?
all classes have elite and special dmg nodes dont they...
anyway, the highest damage hit doesn't seem to be accurate based on my own testing
The frenzy node doesn't give bonuses for special kills, only elite
wouldnt know i havent bought hive scum
nor arbites
im a filthy base classer
💔
i really should buy arbites though it seems pretty fun
Mine says 10074 max hit in this session, which is what the max hit on the burgle was. I am pretty sure the 12k was due to hyper violence.
But that was 11.6k DPS on the burgle with 2 stacks of toxin and all my melee stuff up.
I don't
i like burgle better
Burgle is more fun
hmm right now I hit for higher than my scoreboard highest damage hit and it didn't update, weird
might be a rounding thing
I will say that if you put FGS on scum, it would almost definitely be better than shivs
Shivs are only this good because scum melee talents are ridiculous and reward attack speed in a silly way
also the heavies probably shouldn't have cleave.
need to do some uptime testing with the weakspot adrenaline node, the elite one might be an overkill and you lose it for hordes and harder to keep up for bosses
If you come to a conclusion on that, do tell me.
It's one of the few nodes I am somewhat iffy on.
But getting 15-16 stacks on an elite kill is fun.
is there anyone available to help with malleus monstronum (on PC)

Would ping but navigating members on mobile is impossible

Fuck off

why are some players against buffing voidstrike/electrokinetic staffs
EK needs to be fixed before it's buffed
fixed?... what is the bug?
Issue Type (Required): Weapons Issue Description (Required): EK Finesse Per the in-game Attack Pattern view, an Electrokinetic Staff’s RMB does 660 base damage, and on a crit does: 1064 damage to unarmored, infested, unyielding, and maniac 858 to flak 772 to carapace And a weakspot hit (ignoring that EK can’t hit weakspots, at least to ...
missing finnese damage huh
Missing crit damage multiplier on RMB
So a crit on the zap does like 25-30% less damage than it should
Because the crit multiplier is outside of brackets. =|
It is, like, a 10 second fix.
This is how it looks:
default_target = {
boost_curve = PowerLevelSettings.boost_curves.default,
},
boost_curve_multiplier_finesse = damage_lerp_values.lerp_1,
And how it should be (different attack that's set up properly):
default_target = {
boost_curve_multiplier_finesse = 1.5,
boost_curve = PowerLevelSettings.boost_curves.default,
finesse_boost = {
[armor_types.unarmored] = 0.75,
},
Headshot doesn't matter for this
Right click can't headshot, it can crit
The finesse multiplier is crits and headshots
i know
But since it's outside of the target brackets, there is no crit bonus
So crits do a lot less damage than they should
did you digg this up or others
I found this
And confirmed it's wrong with others
I mean, this alone wouldn't put EK on the same level as Inferno or Trauma, but I would prefer things to be fixed before they're buffed
upvoted the post you sended before
it is understandable to bugfix first
would be interesting if ds would be missing the finesse multiplier how people would react
I think the reason EK is missing it is because the damage profile is copied from Smite, which can't crit
always those smykers... even bug weapons
The easiest way to make EK stronger would prrrrrrobably be to make the right-click hit 3-5 enemies for full damage instead of 1 enemy for full damage and 1 for very reduced damage
Though I do not know if that would be balanced whatsoever
chainlightning effect hit 1 for full and 3-5 targets which loses 20% each
That same mistake is also copied to smite but I guess it doesn't matter there
Yeah. It's such a simple fix, too.
what do you think about my idea
That would also be a good change. The reason inferno and trauma are so strong is because they have infinite cleave.
And in Havoc, charging for half a second to hit one enemy is just not viable, which is why most people use LMB focused EK in havoc
Giving the weapon the ability to hit multiple enemies would be a big step toward making it more usable
still using the old wording for blast but not purgatus or surge
It's because voidblast and voidstrike are too similar
strike feels weird and we have no long range soul blaze Variant like siennas beamstaff
fireball staff would be nice to
soulstealers bounc leftclick would be neat but rightclick would be to similar to bb
I would enjoy if 3/4 staves didn't have the exact same lmb
laser was shotgun or was it corucation the tornado maker
Coruscation is cool. I would enjoy it as well. I think laser was the shotgun
Haven't played VT2 in a while, and Sienna was my least played
corus was surely shotgun and beam had a other cobe attack
I was mostly WHC or WP Saltz or Merc Kruber
Coru was shotgun lmb, laser was shotgun alt fire 
i was shade main first bw second, liked necro aswell
laser rightclick was beam wich can burst with leftclick, only leftclick was cone
Wasnt the beam left click
nope
exactly swapped
Perhaps
or i mixxed it up
likely cause it behaved differently from all other staffs in this regard
i think we don't need firestorm, conflag or the firespear staffs in this game
Wouldnt this be on purpose?
Copied code from ek to make smite, bugging out both with the extra bounce node in the past
And it wouldnt surprise me if something thats intentional on smite is effecting ek again
Smite is good
Ye but player bad
Not bad at all if they know what their doin

even wirh coruscation i used beam cause teammates are sometimes to slow for specials
Smite is amazing if the person in control of it does it right
Giant ass horde your team isn't ready for due to there being the twins, oh why dont i just kill the horde in a moment while yall handle the boss
i only used it then for the penance
yeet shard which shredds the horde or cleaves through it with fgs and staffs
And for some reason ive noticed smite does more damage to the Deamonhost then other bosses
Maybe but with smite your would never have to quell and ya can stun/kill crushers to
Shards takes recharges
Uhh might want to back that up with actual numbers
Because it shouldnt
Its what ive noticed, I always look at boss hp while it goes down and everytime some aggroed a deamonhost and im using smite i see it go down faster then other bosses
Unless you base it on the bar depleting faster, which is just because they have less health
Same team so nothing is different
Oh that might be it then...I never knew lol
But still
or maybe cause teammates focus mor on damage cause mobs don't hit them
Theres a link in the pins which has all enemy stats if youre curious
No no i have mainly my two friends and my partner helping most runs
And I always keep horde aggro off them and keep hordes cleared
I might idk I perfer guessing stats lol
you would need mobspawner mod to test it properly
Tf is a mobspawner?
Gotta boost ego somehow 
Oh a mod oh I dont use mods at all
Never have never will lol I perfer my good Ole fashioned gameplay ^^
If i cant enjoy a game at its base core then I cant enjoy it at all
Base game also doesnt show monster hp next to the bar
Hence this comment
Oh I live field test my skills and weapons, I never use psyker lady tube thing
Expect for bosses
nut do you know where to get the mod i mentioned never used it could test it afternoon then
Mobspawner?
yep
Prob nexus
thanks frog
Replace with whatever gender identity is appropriate
The hat tip is what's important
Ah, found a version without text
gives you broadsword and shield and sends you in the middle ages
everytime i play high havoc without shield i dont really notice that its gone, doesnt really feel any more difficult without it, starting to think its just a crutch for people who cant play, any time i have a decent team it kinda feels like it does nothing
@lusty compass 
@deft stump
Didnt expect you to be so toxic
if you think about it
talents are just a crutch
What playing with agent does 
Having a decent team is the real cheat code
installing the game is a crutch
If the team retreats together you know you are winning
turning your computer on is a crutch
Exclusively rely on sound 
toughness curios are a crutch for people who can't dodge
Mouse and keyboard are crutch for people who can't aim with controller
if you cant beat h40 while fully simulating the game within your mind, dont even talk to me
external stimulus is a crutch
Tbf you still have a lot of people in h40 who actually have to see enemies to react to them
"silent" crushers
true the game is normally like 40% sound anyway

The dodge sound queue is always there
science's greatest mystery
But they dont really make sound when moving
Bubble is rarely bad to have, but it's also rarely the best option
When sound also fails, you need to rely on your third eye
oh i just realized this is psyker chat
M
Just dodge all the time unless cornered
i was thinking of a different shield
thought i was in oggy chat
yeah bubble can be a crutch
I am just bad
Guess what, also a crutch 
Being good at the game is a crutch
What if you are good at using crutches
Even more then
is it just me or is psyker bugged right now? I can't go bomba, I can keep casting assail/greatsword special at max peril
something is wrong
Yes, twitchy's bugged and can't overload from peril rn
you can overload
its source specific
and performing actions that should make you overload but dont causes stutters for every player in the game due to writing to error logs
Do you have a list of the actions that are bugged?
Def not gonna use it to lag out my frens pcs 
force sword specials
dueling sword parry (on psyker)
plasma gun ADS
force greatsword special
lmb EK
entirety of trauma
entirety of voidstrike
assail
bb
smite (though it is a pain to overload on it anyway)
Is burga not bugged?
Fs racist against op staff
I think it will be easier to just proclaim removal of overloading a buff to psyker for FS as of now. It will be balanced by game stuttering when casting over 100% Peril anyway
Going to write a negative review if they revert this buff
Inb4 they make it the bolt pistol recoil bug
Rooted on important systems so they can't fix it
Band aid time
Or something along those lines
If i see ONE smite or ONE chorus zealot...
I run smite whenever I play Psyker lol
I mean, jokes aside, you do have to be one hell of a smyker to be that annoying, but somehow, unfortunately most smykers are. 2/3 smykers i might see in a day are SG + smite till death
I dont 24/7 like others, like if theres a horde thats coming while were in the middle of twins, imm 24/7 that shit real quick bc ain't no way were dealing with a horde and twins, but if theres like a small group its just a waste for a EP yk?
why does no one use the voidstrike staff nowadays?
I run EP with smite so its useful when needed and have three charges whenever so in case I do need to quell I can real quickly
Psykers cant aim for shit i swear like jeez
It also charges really slowly
It's just, extremely unexceptional. It doesn't do crazy damage even with surge crit, it doesn't have insane stagger like VB/EK, and it takes 2 years to charge. EK also takes whatever hope it could have at M1 builds
Now i use my shotgun for a quick elite headset to get a EP but thats quick and I played a fuck ton of doom
it was by far my favorite when darktide launched and now i returned to the game and im really sad i cant find any build for it
I might fuck around and build some wacky thing for it like I do with everything cause everything deserves one chance yk?
Even if its shit ill give it one chance
Yeah i have nothing against it but i personally don't value most "supportive" stuff of this nature in the game. Classes are far too much killing machines (especially psyker) to spend their time being disabled (smite, chorus), imo
My smite doesnt just disable it also kills, any low hp unit like gunners, gone in a second, crushers are stunned forever good luck seeing them move lol, and im doing constant damage to new parts of a horde spawning so it keeps pressure off
Building it isn't hard it just won't be very good. There's a few blessing combos but i highly suggest surge + warp nexus. I can send you here but guides are pinned, more detailed than just a tree id send ya
It's just the average Gun Psyker build but you run VoidSTRIKE
im not having trouble with building it, im just sad no one uses it xDD
Aha, well yeah it's no wonder
If i wanted to play voidstrike
I'd play EK m1

i just got addicted to the feeling of mowing down mixed hordes with BIG BALLS
yeah, im just confused what exactly changed
talents and blessing seem still as good for it as before
was it nerfed?
or did people just got gud and its a noob trap?
Elites having more hp pseudo nerfed it and VS has been blasted a few times iirc
Cant remember exactly what got nerfed though
Right now it's pretty much
Inferno is king, voidblast follows close, EK is alright
Bw lingerstorm is so good in VT2 players will probably kick you for running it
well yeah but vt2 has another problematic staff
the what now?
you mean coruscation?
six uses it in auric and below (he doesnt play below), and six is the one who made the psyker guide in the pins
it can still kill a crusher real nice and quick so its not BAD but its not ideal
but its fun
yeeeeaaaaaah
thank you ill check him out <3
No, flame staff with lingering flames
is it now
.....
cant handle specials tho
Ask anyone in VT2 server
i havent followed the game since they announced necro

finally, something better than coruscation
i hate that staff so much
i might get back into vermintide just cause of that xD
i still need to snag a voidstrike. psyker is over 600tl and i have no void strike
This is easier to show you
i see
so its just fucked
oh well
FS moment
but its cause of the bug?
Bug but the idea itself too. In a staff where you are pure damage dots lingering flames is bound to make things that much worse
i mean, bw was top tier before this shit anyway
press F to melt hordes
i mean its a cool idea in theory
This is why we should buff psyker
on a low cooldown

but the way it interacts with the rest of sienna's kit is...
with a bigass aoe that covers a football field
problematic to say lightly and straight up stupid unbalanced less lightly
Lol yeah
especially cause having a must take talent in vt is much worse than in darktide
cause it locks you out of the other options
completely invalidating them
well not caunting keystones, blitzes aura and the like
cause then its the same problem
checking clips, this is a reminder to actually check your surroundings
check your surroundings lol, most randoms dont even know where their health bar is
Just use your special to bash the dog
Although less effective atm with the broken hitbox
Oi, you guys alright? I've had some games today and you lot are struggling to both play and not insult everyone around you.
tf you mean special
reconlas special is a flashlight 
important note, thats on the players, not psykers as a whole... however there are a lot of bugs going on so im sure a lot more people's fuses are being shorter than normal
considering most of psykers kit currently doesnt make us explode, honestly people should be playing better, but, alas, not always the case
skissues are skissues
IDK, maybe some ppl use shotpistol too much..
Fair on that, still, having a Smiker call me shit when i was the ONLY one to not get downed was a surprise. Fuckin' gros baby lala he was
Some people are also getting frame drops due to the current peril bug as well
sounds about right for a smyker imma be completely real

everything is everyone elses fault because surely their lightning-go-brr saves them from everything, therefore someone ELSE made them die, or some shit like that
also true
I watched as a rager just walked up to him and downed him. Now, noted, I'm rocking the Scum right now so when I have to carry for other its not a fun time
i bet
i think i've had to do that myself, but not to an extreme
definitely have on other classes tho, people like that just do exist
now, i do not mind carrying at all, i care when the person being carried is rude to me or the others
im all for people trying new things, people having bad days, etc, the moment they're rude tho, they're on their own
i consider it a challenge :p
I feel ya, I don't mind carrying but it rubs me the wrong way when someone SHOULDN'T be at that difficulty is an ass to others. Had a vet bitching not too long ago to 'stick together' when the team was doing the objective and he was faffing about.
I mean, if you are sitting on the objective, it's okay to complain everyone isn't there, but if you are the one wondering...
It's always the batteries on the train mission. It's like some sort of cognitive hazard for some people to even LOOK at them.
I've rando queued and got nothing but train today. Kill me
Not even, like, with a modifier. Just plain Damnation and people are still running around with their heads cut off.
well tbh that is more common in damn
if you do damnation a lot, definitely move to auric, its usually more chill
Damnation sucks, it gives you Covid
I usually did but with Scum, I'm trying to see if I can go without getting downed but I might need to just bite the bullet. Before that; I need to shovel my deck and driveway because winter is here
sometimes i wonder what it'd be like to play excise vault without doing the entire finale alone while everyone else dies to 2 zombies and a dog on the other side of the room
Oh ye oops
I had one modded on in the past so it would default the special to the bash, while always having the flashlight active
At least people generally know to go to the left at the start to get the batteries
The map is Mercantile HL-70-04, as you come out the elevator and into the cellar room it is all the way down the hall on the right
Smelter is the one I’ve had the most trouble with teams on
It’s very easy to do the objectives but some people constantly run into the open and dieeee
And then when they do others try to save them so they die
They instantly scatter when the three objectives pop and proceed to die. Everytime
And then I end up clutching over and over again in the dead guy room
Because my whole team dead
One time I had three people who were so dumb they died 30 times and all three left and it was just me and the bots
I was so salty because if they had just sat in the dead guy room and distracted the horde I’d have done the mission for them
Batteries is the only objective thats hard to solo too
Because good luck giving yourself the breathing room to funnel them to their deposit
I’ve done the pick up and throw then kill everything method
It’s slow
Have to repeat a billion times
Its still ass
Generally better to just die
snips assail shards at you
It’s not worth it
Drpends on the weapons you use
Big horde clear makes it easier because you give yourself more time
But you always get fucked by ragers, flamers, trappers or bombers
trappers...
Ragers just because they hit you from narnia mid slide so you drop the battery and are now forced to fight whatever is on you that you couldve just slid away from
idk why but inferno and voidstrike are the staff i use the least
would barrier with inferno be weird, since inferno is bs against range elites and reapers
It's still not patched?
Mercantile has multiple safe spots as I can recall.
Hive scum melee immunity when sliding 👌
Your missing out
EK the most fun
but inferno just makes the game easy
inferno is boring
and kinda meh without good teammates
it has the fatal flaw by gunner,reapers,bombers and snipers
Nah, loads of maps have broken stuff that's never been fixed lol
There's a vent on smelter that means nothing can reach you
every day without a new psyker staff is another day without a reason to keep going
How do you do blessed by fate, i've done like 3 darktillion warp attacks at 100% peril and the animation never pops up
Use purga/inferno.
Or RMB EK.
Rest is bugged atm.
Just FS code much.
Use inferno staff or Electrokinetic staff alt fire.
All other warp stuff is bugged atm.
FS needs to hotfix before holiday but they aren't likely to do it in time.
Speaking as a dev we tend to slack tf off in December
Bug fixing stuff over Christmas is mega ass
Isnt this bugged atm
Yup
my Beloved says it will remain broken forever
Surely they fix it soon
it's getting awfully close to holiday break period, I wouldn't be 100% sure
Seems they are currently working on it, I wanna say this weekend
They know about plasma gun too, and they are saying that an upcoming hotfix will fix it
So we are all good in terms of not waiting ages
At least the bug doesn't make the game unplayable, worst thing about it is not being able to do a few penances with all available weapons
I mean it affects blitz as well
Anything that can cause you to blow up, including force swords (even their push)
all our class exclusive weapons 😭😭😭
I know, but it's not game breaking or has a bad negative impact, so it's kind of whatever really and not a big concern 
I played a few rounds of bubble knight and has no issues
When the computer notices you aren’t blowing up, it flags it as an error
It then gets written up on your hard drive
Which causes stuttering
Worsens as it repeats
fyi that was just my guess and people are assuming that it's correct, maybe that's not what causes the stutter
I’ve see it on the forums and Reddit as well
I am going to continue to parrot it as if it was fact
yes, because people are reading my bug report that says it might cause issues
Ah, I played two games yesterday and at points I abused it by spamming staff auto attacks for a few minutes and didn't notice anything bad. Maybe because I'm on console
One time console is superior smh
😔
Well it’s a good theory, and it makes sense
And regardless the issue is still very much there no matter what’s causing it
I don't know how plasma gun fits into that if it only triggers at max peril
or heat
I started playing Mount and Blade on PC and learned that I hate playing with mouse and keyboard
at least controlling the character. It's great for all the menus and everything else, but controlling the character? Nah
I just did the mesh loading fix so that whenever I open the cosmetics menu it doesent slow my game to a crawl
Oh there’s deffo games where the controls are better, like fighting games and racing games
For me everything except strategy games I guess, I simply can't play with mouse and keyboard 
Even as a "I can make it work" die hard mouse and KB user, some games are built for controller... Dark Souls/Elden Ring comes to mind.
But staying on controller in a game like Darktide will have you working twice as hard for a half the result imo.
I have a friend who plays with controller though, he chooses particular builds for it.
Not to diminish any fantastic controller sharpshooters
darktide is a game that, more so than other FPS games, requires rapid accurate turning of large angles. Its pretty common to need to do 3 180s in rapid succession and its just harder to do on controller. Otherwise, its an FPS game so controller is fine
yeah that'd be my main issue playing tide with a controller
also the fact that you have to use controller presets instead of being able to bind individual buttons
or the fact that apparently 2 out of 3 available presets have the spot button mapped to L3 
no wonder why barely anyone pings enemies and items
even with gyro and backbuttons i don't play fps with controller
Luckily my controller let's me remap all buttons through their software anyway, but they are remapped everywhere, so navigating menus gets tricky 
mine aswell
hey, so, soulblaze stacks mod, to see how many stacks an enemy has, what mod is that? Does anyone know?
do you mean soulblaze?
healthbars does it, so does debuff indicator
personally i disable the one on healthbars and use debuff indicator as its more legible
and has better customisation
sweet thanks
i use mods but i don't track enemy debuffs/health
Space marine 2 feels much better on controller to me
but that one is interesting, because mouse and keyboard does have better shooting accuracy
camera and combat speed make huge difference
I think it also helps that there is an aggressive controll aim assist
i can't comment about that
How to gunpsyker
So far, it feels insanely clunky on M+K
It feels made 4 it
I couldn't get it to work. That could be partly due to playstyle; I wanted to fight more than shoot
needing an aim button, a fire button, a melee button, and a parry button all close at hand was really cumbersome for me, and the defaults just didn't do it
I also want to get into melee more than shoot, and it feels... bad so far.
Chip damage from the thousands of little guys, then I mistime a parry and lose all my health
are you playing the campaign?
Aye
they start you off in the hole, because all of the melee weapons you can take are balanced defense
once you get to the multiplayer, you can pick different variations that either make parries much easier (fencing), or have a different defense mode (blocking)
Pick gun, aim gun at enemy, shoot gun.
There are also builds in the pins if you need more details than that
Ty ^^
you can also parry attacks that aren't blue circles 😂
which the game never tells you
True 40k experience, Darktide also doesn't tell you a lot of things
yeah, the space marine tutorial is pretty fekkin sparse
Do I give space marines another try? Maybe I like it this time?
If you already have it, might as well
Ninja said 👎 .
Might be onto something.
I'm not stopping you, but I am pretty sure of the outcome. We can do a space marine strike party later today for funsies
Who made Ninja the authority on what people should or shouldn't try again? 
Not all people, just potato
He's not, but he knows me pretty well.
Like how I've never been successful at QTEs.
I gave sm2 another try a few months ago and I still hated it.
I think it's pretty much all or nothing. I frickin love the game, but it is a pretty narrow niche
The only thing I know about SM2 is the Cadian speech, but in German, because apparently people think it's really cool or something. I listened to it and all I heard was cringe and bad dub 
Playing a big character who feels squishy is just weird
I move slow and clunkily, but also die in 2 hits
Yep. Can't defend the way they approach showing the core gameplay loop
it's like an artificial skill floor, and I don't know why or what the benefit is
They have trial sections for the multiplayer that are decent, but just drop the player in rawdog for the campaign
and hope they just accept getting stomped for a dozen hours or so until the entire basic kit is demonstrated
maybe it's to make the power fantasy by the end feel better? dunno
Some of the takes in hive scum chat are certainly interesting.
I haven't been there since class launch
I haven't hung out there yet.
I tried builds in the pins, but last time I checked, they weren't updated.
Oh cool. The one I clicked on is updated.
I am lurking there because this chat is slow today
I wonder what the leveling recs are.
Like "use assail" for psyker.
I'm gonna have to read and learn the talents one of these days.
Their current topic of discussion is, "Why do people want to nerf scum when psyker exists?"
I told them that SG should give attack speed, rending, cleave, and soulblaze on hit and at least one person thought I was serious.
Scriers giving Soulblaze on hit 
Yes yes finally good blazing Spirit melee build 
SG should auto win the mission
it's peak
Is the doom guy psyker build still around
hive scum is schroedinger's class, I swear
it's the best, shittiest class that dies and can't win that needs to be nerfed right away
It didnt have bubble
Combat knife double shotty build
then idk what you mean
It was made by one of the good players just to like brag solo havoc 40
I liked the build still got the stuff for it just not the talent tree after the resets
Psykers have no good players
You're scrying how the mission will end. Either win or lose immediately upon loading in.
Probably pretty standard right build then.
If you can remeber any hey talents, that would help
If I show the gear does that help
It had like shriek
Or scriers gaze
Not sure which
shriek would be a really odd choice.
If you can't remember the ability then I can only guess.
Do you remember the blitz?
Just play gunker with knife and double barrel I guess
I have... doubts about this build soloing H40. But some people are very good, I suppose. That it's using controller inputs furthers my doubt.
Someone in the scum chat saying rampage and adrenaline are bad nodes. Holy moly.
Let's pretend I don't know what the nodes do
Replenish all Toughness and enter Rampage! for 10s. For the duration, gain +50% Melee Power, +20% Melee Attack Speed and 25% Damage Reduction, as well as becoming Stun and Suppression immune.
Melee Strikes extend the duration by 0.3s. After 20s, the extending becomes diminished.
Upon exiting Rampage!, lose all Stamina and become Exhausted for 7s, gaining +25% Damage Taken and -75% Stamina Regeneration Speed for the duration.
Base Cooldown: 30s.
Here's a pretty standard right side build for guns and melee with some flex points.
But if it's "high skill" and with DB, then that might have KF instead of assail. Also true aim. IDK how often DB shotgun is being used. If it's a lot then TTS and SoA might be used.
Melee Hits grants you a stack of Adrenaline. Critical Melee Hits grants +1 additional Stack. Not gaining a stack within 2s will remove a stack instead.
At 30 Stacks, remove all stacks of Adrenaline and gain Adrenaline Frenzy.
Adrenaline Frenzy grants +10% Attack Speed and +25% Melee Damage, lasting 10s.
This isn't counting the subnodes that add more damage and cleave and such
Sounds OP, must be bad nodes indeed
I need to remind myself that most of the people in that chat are new to the game.
I was enjoying, earlier, people arguing with Path about his understanding of game mechanics.
oh noooo
Path, famously known for not understanding game mechanics, yes
Supposed to be visiting family and can't play the game and make tables filled with darktide data Path.
Yes.
That Path.
So it goes
I wish I cared more about understanding game mechanics 
I'd ask him for clarification things. I can only confidentially challenge his ability to save me from fire.
Poor path. He got a sizable severing of me being a chaotic goof.
Maybe YOU should challenge YOUR ability to save YOURSELF from fire 
Everyday. 🫡
Speaking of, my brother set fire to a tunnel once 
and a dumpster, two different incidents
I DEFINITELY don't know anyone who set fire to school's property.
It was you, wasn't it
no


i said it was someone high skilled who was bored of the regular stuff and wanted a change
it was like a challenge build for doom guy type fun gameplay

anyone know what the best normal force sword is at the moment?
Best for what?
just overall as a jack of all trades
In that case you should use either of the Force Greatsword variants, as they are actually that, the normal force swords are more specialised
deimos is single target, illisi is for hordes idk what the og one is for
Illisi is for horde clear, but it's a bit weak
Deimos is for single target
Obscurus is kind of between them, but the combos are silly
Greatswords are both great and do horde clear and single target really well, the downside is lower mobility, mark just depends on which moveset you prefer really. Mk6 is a bit better against elites, mk8 bit better for hordes, but either will do either well
I know. I just think it's a questionable build for H40. Someone could maybe do it, but I am doubtful. If you are able to find a video or something, I am happy to be proven wrong. I like seeing off-meta builds succeed.
Illisi is for hordes, but loses out to the greatswords in every metric except mobility. Deimos is best for defensive play. It has a really strong stagger on its 2nd heavy attack that can knock over crushers on a headshot. Pairs well with the firestick. Obscurus performs best on its own, with very fast and long-range combos, but you will get punished if you screw up
greatsword mentioned
Greatsword mentioned
Kat summoned
A wild Kat appears
Not a house Kat
A feral Kat, perhaps

Obscurus
Reasoning: few of my friends are very good h40 random loadout players and obscurus consistently shits out damage and deals with everything
I like fgs (you can get around its slowness easily because it’s not gimped like zealot 2h’s giga slowing you on every attack)
Deimos is good you just waste time hitting hordes with it if you have nothing else..deimos h2 can knock twins and captains off the map. The stab is good for easy headshots (you can stab through backs and hit heads)
When I have ilisi and a difficult situation presents itself, I’m never thinking “I’m glad I have the ilisi”
Idk it was some wack crazy guy who had mad skills
Afaik Paradise shilled for Double Barrel psyker
Paradise has been gone for like a year tho.
yea generally i find that the illisi is best for hordes but hordes arent really dangerous vs elites and stuff
is the double barrel any good now or is it still terrible?
i havent really tried it in ages
very intesting choices tbh, not even maxed out curios, which someone at the point of being bored generally would have at that point. however, i also dont think this is "someone" i think this is yours, and, if you'd just said that, we'd offer minor advice if wanted, or general comments etc
This is why I say Deimos is best defensively, but Obscurus is best overall. Just that Obscurus is a lot harder to use well.
Why would I lie lol, if it was my build I could probably recreate the talent tree lol
They cuoldn't remember the build at all. So they posted their gear to give more clues.
My curios aint maxed for sure but it's an old ish build
so then, who are these from?
Someone here or in gen talked abt running doom guy build in high havocs and I was like build looks cool and asked the stats
i see, my mistake
What, my other builds that got reset and im just now trying to get all of it rebuilt?
What is your point with this
screenshots of others builds dont show mastery, nor builds
only ones own screen has those
Yeah cause I dont have the talent tree cause the thing got reset before I saved it
And I posted the gear as a clue for someone smarter who coulda probs figured out a some kinda build to work witv them
Once it gone it gone from what I understand
mine got fixed, but, mightve just been lucky
how long ago (ish) was it posted, if you recall
Probably before the other classes got a buff but I reckon I coulda made it work with adjustments if I just saw the skill tree
i gave an option above
And Potato's option is the only option. >:(
i know ainz has a build with DB, but he uses obscurus
im trying to hunt through the logs for screenshots similar to this, or mentions of it
no luck yet other than ainz and medmindset (sawsee)
Thanks I missed it
New Ainz profile picture, ahhhhhhhh
If the person who has the build was indeed paradise, here's the most recent rendition. #psyker-class message
Looks like paradise came back for awhile but is gone again.
Also note that knife (especially without bleed) will not horde clear as quickly so BM is doing even less than it normally does.
Assail and scriers on both potato's and paradice's
Unless you talking abt something else
Ye. assail is standard gunker melee tho.
especially with knife
So if it's "I'm tired of the same old meta stuff" then it's likely not assail.
i do see paradise posting a lot of FGS shotgun build tweaks
This one from paradise has a knife. #psyker-class message
any gamers?
ye
so, i dont like admitting defeat, but i am unable to locate the build as of yet
nothing thats both knife and DB has popped up for me yet
lmao
this was a free game that I added to my library today
seems topical
:D
Not the person btw.
I'm just gonna leave this here
Re engineered the paradise skill tree
Did I goof anything up
Does it translate or do i need to tweak
I just picked all the skills with same icon
move this one somewhere else
Ok out of a match let's see
Ok 10% ranged or 20% to ogryns and monstrocities, I'll go with ogryns and monstrocities
Good catch tho the soulblaze perk was useless lol
Works nice, aint easy build but just what I want when i wanna play something else than staff psyker, thanks gang!
We can call this scooby mystery solved
i think at the top of the tree
it should look slightly different
and maybe will free up one point fr warp ghost
like this
Good, good. Join the cult of no soulblaze on meleeker
Who needs it, not me!
I can try that out too
Soulblaze on elite kill. Flees.
pc on its own is pretty meh
like, less than 1% total damage on a H40 with no other soulblaze support
Why the fleeing.
It's a joke.
I tried messing with it even on assail but chances are, everything is already dead from the shards.
I agree wholeheartedly
I started taking pc anyway cos when I am clutching it helps cos the random purga psyker is ass
But I wouldn't take pc if I was playing with a decent psyker like syllo
And he was on purg
This works too with the warp ghost but it changes how it plays like you gotta be more aware of your meter with this and warp ghost but the tradeoff is more stable dps if you manage to not blow up, which isnt super hard with the scriers
He takes it playing with you?
Would you take it with me?
Is there some kind of ChAxe tech with a gunpsyker that makes it really worthwhile to run, or am I just seeing the average pub havoc party finder
lmao
what would be the best pistol, staff, AR for the psyker class?
No i trust
I dont play psyker when I play with dom normally
Oh.
I can imagine that slicing a cheek when sitting down
Unsheathing itself when you sit being the best case scenario. lol
Back pains is all I see...
You mean, scooting around on said butt.
Game of butt slides afterall.
which autogun are gunkers using these days?
You know is true, especially for Gangers.
Now I'm hesitant to touch any slideable surface further
