I'm going to eat now. Meanwhile, I'm looking at the builds here. I just turned 30 and played with the Inferno Staff, so I'll look for a build based on that. Thank you for your help.
sounds good, enjoy the food
any questions feel free to ask 
WHY DO I HAVE A BAZILLION CURIOS
😭 now i have to sort again
this fucking scroll bar dude
oh dear lord the weapons are worse... fatshark PLEASE give us a tab to see favourites
I recommend the 2D inventory mod and favorite mod for more colors of favorites
I have many builds in the pinned build guide
what does 2d do
the ranged weapons, the melee, and the curio.....
my brain hates this problem
i do have this precious tho
Densifies the inventory screen. Adds columns. More items on screen at once.
10/10 mod
shall keep in mind
I'm already looking at your builds. I didnt see other build link
dom and i are racing to 1k TL so it might be necessary
six made the main guide, we all contributed to it tho
by which i mean, we told him what was cool and he did all the actual work
Ahhhh, okay. Sorry, I just woke up. Slept through 2 alarms. Brain is fuzzy.
Sounds hateful, honestly
wdym
not grinding really
same as normal, just a lil extra memes
we didnt specify any rules but i presume we both know shit like the twin exploit are out of line
but, dom trading in an hp stat on a curio for xp is funny
right before he finished the sentence explaining it he got sniped also, which was very comedic timing
Pewpew
speaking of tho
how effective do you think bomber/flamer res will be vs 5% hp
ive just swapped 2 5% hp slots for one of each, since i've noticed enemy fire is my main enemy recently
bombers keep hitting me in the face with grenades
I don't use 5% health on any build at this point. I think bomber resist is too niche to be useful, especially with how fire ramps. It might get you 1 extra tick of survival
I can test in a moment
so can i tbh im just lazy
At this point I alternate between +5% toughness and +5% revive speed, and CDR and gunner resist are always there
Gunners are scary
its crazy how heretical you can make psyker look
Gunners/reapers are the enemy that most often appear out of nowhere to bully me. The resist gives me a second to react
Pewpew
I hope I can get my brain braining again so I can play H40s without being a dead weight
Civil War firing line ahh plasma gunners
Real
Except for me it's h25
I have gotten the fabled Celine Carter in my lobby! Let's see how it goes!
That's my thing. (Also sorry about brain)
They left few minutes in for no reason lmaooo
They rejoined
Then they left when they went down?
Abusing the reconnect mod
Ok so it's a mod that does that
Can someone please tell me the dump stat for electrokinetic force staff?
Warp Resist is M2 build
Charge if M1 build
Ok ty
oh my bad thx you all
M2 build best build
3/4 of cosmetics look like eye color swaps of the enemy faction
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=a09bee10-fbf9-42aa-8944-596bfdf31ccf I'm currently planning the curios like this. I don't know what the FGS blessings should be. I did something like this with the skill tree too. I'm open to any suggestions. I was using a dueling sword before I heard from you.
I'd swap to a melee that gets access to uncanny strikes to boost DoT damage. Force sword does this the easiest because the the 9m PA (push attack) can stck uncanny at range. If in auric or lower use whatever you want tho.
Do you have issues with managing peril?
great force sword or force sword one
sometimes
but my curios are only toughnes right now
no I changed build I didnt try the new setup my bad
If it's not a constant issue, then I'd drop BM (battle meditation) and the -10% peril nodes and get EE (empathic evasion) and Vulnerable minds.
force sword over FGS for inferno builds.
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=a09bee10-fbf9-42aa-8944-596bfdf31ccf I changed this one to that one
because of peril
There's are builds in the pins. In there, curios recs are listed.
I will look for it
Also note that blazing spirit is terrible on all melee's that can take it.
Again, you want uncanny strikes on melee with inferno builds.
FGS can't get uncanny strikes.
okkey will try
but that is for minmaxing.
if just doing aurics and you like x thing, run what you like
fun over meta
but on meta talk, BM interferes with shriek uptime
So it should be dropped
first I wanna do meta then fun because I can upgrade everything with meta gear
one last question how do I become convict
Keep chatting. After you interact enough, you'll get a red name.
I cant reply with emojis thats hit hard lol
No image permissions yet. Just keep chatting.
Not sure.
I have seen grey names who have been here for years but didn't chat and were still grey.
I will be back with my gifs
Unfortunate
😈
looks familiar
what is
Steam recap thing
how get?
Go on steam
I want this on Xbox too please 
It's on the store front.
It's not just on steam. I avoid the store section unless I am looking for something in particular.
lol



for a frame of reference
DT is not a horror game. 😭
Trust. I am too baby to play those.

I played like 11 not counting demos
When did you start playing ?
this was a good gaming year, found quite a few gems 🙂
technically june, but that was a few rounds basically, then stopped, and joined up for real sometime after arby, where the timeline spikes
so, mid-late july
I got those last year
missing these three
Just these two for me (I do not play ogryn)
You might be one of the player who played the most this year I think
Fatshatk should get spécial frame
i wouldnt say speedrun
hyperfocus tho, definitely
2k hours is a really bad speedrun 
i will have poxbreaker soon tho so thats cool
siblings

were either of the new classes necessary, in your assessment?
they have their own niche
IDK about needed, but add diff flavors.
I like my zoomin crackhead.
i feel like their niches were already filled by other classes
like arby has big overlap with ogryn
I'm not sure what necessity would entail in this context but both classes were a great breath of fresh air for the game. Mostly hivescum compared to arbites.
Playing hive scum has shed light on why I build psyker the way I do. lmao
Max rat but also max keep hand hurt away.
i mean do they have new playstyles that other classes didn't cover
because arbites just feels vaguely like ogryn
arbi lacks diversity however
and scum is like a kind of rogue archetype, which both zealot and psyker already had flavors of
but i guess we now have rogue rogue in addition to faith rogue and wizard rogue
if you hate oggy but still want tanky bash then arby... also dog
Thing this is the more approachable class.
I will say no other class hits the WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE roomin stabby time the way scum does.
for me
I didn't intend to get the class anytime soon. I was just ehhh on it (and kind of everything tbh), but I was gifted it and it's the most fun I've had outside of psyker.
I actually have a second class to play now.
in a roundabout way, scum is psyker 2
I would say so, although the new playstyles are niche. Arby is very tanky especially if built towards it but still not as much as ogryn - and it's human sized as a tradeoff. And has the dog which is an unique force multiplier for the class ontop of that.
Hivescum is the only real rogue archetype in the game, psyker has been buffed a lot to be quite tanky and Zealot has significantly more defensive talents and abilities compared to hive scum. All three zealot abilities restore toughness on activation, for starters
i haven't played since psyker became tanky
in fact i haven't played much at all after arby made an appearance
i did the class penances and that's it
left a really sour taste in my mouth
Aw, sorry to hear that
I like both of the DLC classes personally, even though a lot of other players of both are really fucking bad at the game and behave poorly on top of that
something about "press tag twice to kill boss" didn't sit right with me
When arbites freshly came out and 9 /10 arbi pubs would just w+m1 and alt+f4 the moment they got netted, that was genuinely a low point for darktide
hivescum was no notes for me, first time ever that levelling a class was actually fun and exciting from level 1
seeing level 1 scummers wipe on an uprising mission hit different
when the new class isn't tanky as shit and inherently immune to sources of death other than overextend net
yeah it's gonna be better
although i suspect psyker could get really silly now
I've enjoyed hive scum so much I'm no longer maining psyker
uncanny strike and what blazing spirit still no no ?
Hive scum does what I wished gun/melee psyker could have all this time
blazing spirit only good on trauma
whats trauma I am new 😄
but where big sword
Blazing spirit is not good on melee. It is only good on voidBLAST staff.
VB = voidblast = trauma
trauma is old name
Divorced 🙁
note that there is a staff called voidstrike
oh okey
i also refuse to call 🅱️urgatus by its new name
so trv
deflector? or is there a meta choice ?
on force sword (deimos or obscurus) when paired with inferno
cara + unyielding / maniac
uncanny strikes + superiority / deflector
❤️
@radiant frigate one more thing I forgot to add, grinding penances for both DLC classes is also easy as hell
I've done everything but the 'win 100 games' on either
I see
that is the only one i have left on arbites
what is a good build for aisells or the throwy thing
everything else finished in 50 games
yep, same lol
I have like 15 games left on arbi and 24 on scum
Gun and melee
Also out of curiosity @verbal thistle , do you ever like check out tidbits of gameplay and stuff? Geniunely curious because as mentioned, I'm generally committed to trying to distill/refine my gameplay or decision making overall but asking randomly for people to go "Check out three minutes of attempted clutch," isn't exactly something I'd go around doing unsolicited.
Half of the time I learn new things when someone points out "Why didn't you do the special combo, or the property of your push attack on multiple targets," or etc.
all that being said I'm probably also gonna take a break from darktide as a whole
QP has gotten unbearably bad again
Player quality asside, the servers are unstable af.
Shit is silent and spawns right behind you. Teleporting back into death. Game just dumping players.
too unstable for beans to play?
is a mess/
I will play with frend
bugs with certain map sections making poxbursters silent still not fixed
Have to feed pets soon
I can tolerate either the bugs or having to struggle with dead weight auric pubs. Not both
Tposing when usually playable sucks.
US servers are dead atm. EU is spicy.
if the bugs are funny, then I mind a lot less
like "why does everyone have ogryn sized helmets??" that was fun
And then servers I can play on is dead.
blue eyes white dragon
US servers are Tposing til DC.
black magician
why dont psykers take quietude?
point hungy
quietude good, but other things better or already cover enough toughness gen
I usually take quietude with SG or in gas missions.
No TDR or DR node is a choice tho.
quiteude with JaD now that it works still sounds funni
ye
What does Pot of Greed do by the way?
There are multiple nodes in here I would probably drop for Quietude.
Is that one of my builds? I don't remember it, but it could be.
I'd probably be dropping something for BM actually
But it looks like a staff build
Big assumption on my part
You're a big assumption!
was it ever not? >.>
more like a big ass
haha got em
man i love the big slice
I don't really do vod review but if I am in vc/playing with someone and spectating I do help them things
its VECT's build
wish voidslice crit had a bit more oomph
just something extra going on with it to make the crit blessing more justifiable
Ah, okay. So one that's in the Bonanaza but not one I made.
it has really good fall off damage compared to the non-crit big slice (ie. it has much less fall off) but you're still only looking at extending its trash killing potential and not much else
I like FGS + Voidstrike. One of my favorite builds to play outside of tryhard havocs
it wasnt until they got rid of it
that i realized 99% of my enjoyment with voidstrike was the unbearably loud SFX from way back when
especially when it was cracking through hordes ofs kulls
it was so loud
I will be honest, I don't personally like this build, but it works for VECT and I try to include all builds, not just ones I like. Skill > talent choice in the end. This is part of why I put the templates into the Bonanza, so folks have a basis for modifying builds to better suit their playstyle
Good to know!
ok kinda related, i was looking for weapon dump stats for the build i wanted (example flamer staff with bubble) and didnt find any
did i miss it? if not, would be nice to find
@tulip kettle am free
I can add dump stats if they aren't there. I'll check. Which weapons?
Flame stick dump stat should be at the top of the Inferno section
i remember i was looking for force sword dump stat
would be nice if it's put nearby that build's section
I can add that.
Force sword dump stat is warp resist
got a strike party going and babysitting newbies atm
As low as possible without sacrificing other stats
My force sword is currently 28% Warp resist and 80% in everything else. I would like something under 20%, but that's very rare
illisi strokemaxxing is 0 in everything and 80 in warp resist
dont see that in ur dumb guide
I have shamed the Psyker name.
gotta teach people how to swords out for the emperor
is this right for dump stats https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ftJZuivw8sX-W1kXbJKl8W8aX7m9dFZYQ07jEGCymWs/edit?gid=0#gid=0
Absolutely not for Psyker
Damage dump on Inferno?
And the only person who dumps blast radius on Voidblast is Rat
lmao
I saw the pinned comments
do you guys think if it goes off screen it reveals a secret extra reward
You need to hit 40,000% for the secret reward
a lot of it comes down to proper positioning
basically just use some meta buils like bubble purg and lock areas down
maliciously abuse the current ranged dodge window
other then that learn the flow of the different missions, almost all of them have areas where you just have to deal with monsters and hordes so you can prep beforehand
and yea its mostly map stuff
just ran a 29 with pubs and first drop of baross we got annihilated cause one of us dropped too soon and it lead to a cascading fuck up. second run same people same everything we clear it with no downs
you should very much expect to lose and be ready to go again
I wish there was a staff that shot force sword projectiles
There should be a geoguesser for video game locations
I think there's one for CS
Could make a website for darktide geoguesser
thoughts on this build that i just tried? https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9fc4f03e-d841-412a-849f-8ebb94b2958b/the-good-smyker-build
Idk why it says good with ep smite
Just play it more and learn the flow of each map. Its a grinding sort of content
anyone wanna post a melee gun build they like to run?
Yeah, just not very fun content I guess, wish I could have havoc modifiers in auric or something without worrying about stuff like emperors fading light and teammates
I’ve got a plethora of builds and it’s kinda 50/50 on most of em
Oh i was referring to the guy asking about melee build. For havoc the safest build to play is bubble purga
Ah mb lol
Hate that build unfortunately 😭 will keep powering through with my own
Especially with stim nerf and no rot this season. So bubble is decent again
Last season they were just too thicc so imo shriek was stronger so psyker could mass clear them
smyker build sucks ass without good teammates 😂
Had this dude in havoc who just smited eveyrhting
im stunning like 5 crushers and maulers and they're off frolicking off somewhere
Look at the pinned build guide
There are many melee builds
From multiple members of the community
I always feel a little weird when I drop into a high 20s/low 30s and still lose. Imposter syndrome going wild. "Do I really deserve to be H40?!"
yea like the guy who dropped first was just the first domino
i died because i tried to push attack a final toll'd overhead
to predictable results
lessons get learned and relearned pretty quickly
I have just outright refused to play the game. Last havoc season was just not fun.
if i have a build that just
completely crushes auric after repeated play
then i jump into havoc if its the build i wanna keep playing
i dont feel compelled otherwise, there really is no reason to
I thought it was really fun xd
Bs but fun with how many crushers there are
Lmao these are awesome
My experience has been that 40 tends to be much easier than the 20s because people in the 20s are usually not good teammates 😂 I’ve called it the havoc valley of death for a while 😂
I still remember a havoc 20 where I killed close to 90% of stuff on the map and solo’d the twins as part of a clutch and then we lose after I get everyone up because I got netted and die because everyone forget about me and nobody rescued me from the net 😂
Man that still smarts lol
i had a guy throw a 39 at the end of mercantile cus he "got bored"
Yeah, H40 players tend to be more reliable and predictable
yea except those that get a huge ego and stop caring cus they got theirs and wanna run bs
it depends. if you all agree to someone trying bs, thats just being a goofball, having fun. its when you dont agree beforehand, ie "want to take it seriously" that its a problem imo
running dumb shit in h40 is common, but def shouldnt ruin other peoples fun for the sake of it
Remove rank and the party maker, add a new “ultra big pp maelstrom” with all the h40 modifiers. Unlock it for an account only after people get MGS. Problem solved
Mystery Goon Squad
24 hr awake bad
You gotta be a patriot
And have sons
Wot is MGS?
The cheevo for beating a mael with no downs, it’s a reasonably good gate for a big pp mael mode as a replacement for havoc
Cataclysm in VT2 requires you to beat a set of bosses on legend which is reasonably hard to do and serves as a good gate for “can you play the game well enough to not be dead weight”
I never got the Cataclysm DLC, but I did get the achievement for doing every map on legend with every character
Cata is like havoc. Die in like 2 hits.
Yeah and boy do I suck at it 😂
The humble skaven slave poking you in the butt for 80 damage
My brettshield sitting in my pocket ready to regen all of it and change in 2 seconds
HOLY CRAP the inferno staff has a rediculus amount of stagger
i been playing sienna in chaos wastes cata and the backshot slave is real
still working out how to sienna tho 😂
There is a reason most havoc builds use it
Yea and it’s kind of bullshit that the literal earthquake staff doesn’t have the same or more comparatively
its funny that the bug has fundamentally changed how people react to bursters in games
used to be people would barely ever shoot em
now they seem to shoot on sight
i know i do LOL
Anyone have recommendations for other warhammer 40k games that have character/class building aspects?
I try to put a teammate between me and bursters
Hit burster from far away with purg and let it explode due to burn near teammates
Soulfire on the new trench map is op. Snowballing is great in the tight corridors.
I need advice on how to clutch this situation. /s
See if that was me i would have just survived
(I was explicitly stuck I think halfway in the boss, I was completely immobile)
So I was just kinda fucked
If you hit better the boss would have just died
Build I saw out in the wild.
I thought maybe they were using whatever they were given, but I saw them swap to increasingly "interesting" builds.
it's wonderful but i am tempted to throw idira into the abyss after An Unforeseen Combat Incident
Cassia go brrrt
Anyone got the Dark Heresy alpha
I keep Idira out of my party. Even on the hardest difficulty, she is unnecessary.
My entire strategy is just give Argenta 8000 buffs and watch her clear the map before enemies get to move
Fellow psykers o/
hey yall, does quietude proc if peril is at 0%? I'm curious to know if it works if smth like by crack of bone continually procs while i'm at 0%
So.... is that overpowered build by Mr E still good? that he talked about in his strongest class video? the Interno staff psyker? and what is that build?
And Does anyone have the Force Greatsword build that is supposdly strong as heck?
No idea which build you talking about
i forgot to say in the video but if youre reading this then type your guess below like last time!
What mods do I use? - https://youtu.be/43VBLFL_8ck
What music is that? - https://youtu.be/L6P6t5OV3wk
Join the channel for acc...
Not at my pc, but you might be able to test with quietude and tranquility through slaughter. Remove other toughness gen sources and shoot a recon (or other gun with crit strings).
Quietude works at 100% peril. So it might work at 0%.
Mr. E has spread psyker misinformation, especially around SB. I don't trust Mr. E builds.
Check pins for builds.
What is SB?
I don't think Quietude works at 100% peril anymore. Will test.
No? If it doesn't, I wonder when it stopped.
Scum release?
Wonder if the reload builds peril talent is working correctly yet.
Sure isn't working anymore.
Quietude at 100% peril.
I mean
Test 0% too.
You never know with this game.
At least that's consistent.
Alas
Does the peril gen part of quietude work with surety of arms?
It has historically not worked. So would be neat if it does now.
Also should be 24 or 25 % peril on reload, but has been stuck at around 15% for some time.
I got 15 toughness when reloading
Also got 15% peril
A crit headshot with mettle and warp expenditure gave me 130 toughness
of 187 max, in this case

How do these force swords work? Special action just generates peril for meleeker damage with talent?
which sword. 1 handed or 2 handed
The gs but iam curious about the mechanics of both
Greatsword generates peril, and in return you shoot a big warp slash on your next attack within a few seconds.
The attack charges up based on enemies killed.
Each level of charge increases damage, stagger, and range of the warp slash.
The 1h swords work similarly, but it's not a ranged attack. Press the button, gain peril, empower your next attack.
oh, and no different levels of power for the 1h swords.
I can get a few clips
Interdasting, i suppose i didnt notice because low charge level at the time
The 1h i noticed a diff attack animation with a 1hand biden blast thing
the illisi MK of the 1h sword has a swipe, the other MKs have a biden blast
sped up is funnier
I'm saving this for next time someone asks about smite.
hey guys is smite viable in uprising
I wish i could be good with the 1h fs but i am a troglodyte larping as a mage
LMAO
Its so peak
Reasonable crashout
i'm curious, does the illisi get any extension to its hitbox when empowered?
Cool
more cleave and damage iirc
more cleave is nice 
I remember doing the ogryn event. We were getting spammed with crushers and I had a Declaw and laspistol. A smyker was making it so horrible. Glad you got an out. 😭
0 charge. 1 bar. Full bar
Force greatsword @eager sentinel
0 charge for stagger, peril increase, 1 bar can kill horde, 2 can kill elites and specials
dont mine me missing the mauler in 1 bar
Each bar increases stagger on special too.
2 having significantly more impact than 1 or 0 bars
increase the bar by killing or being around things that are killed
Good stuff, thanks. I tend to only use it on plague ogryns so i never saw the difference or effect
its like warrior priest passive
You're like the warrior priest passive. >:(
speaking of WP
You're shiny, golden, and you do a lot of damage.
Need scoreboard in dt. Want ro shame my buddy for doing 0 dammy
I heard the mod is somewhat busted or finnicky to install?
After playing so much vet i end up picking ammo bags by accident
the actual data if very finicky with how the numbers are gathered (mostly the damage numbers not being right) and is usually the main mod that needs an update after each major update
they are easy to install
just upkeeping them seems to drive people away
Sounds about par for the course. Imma check the nexus for em when i get back
(needing to wait a few days after an update then reinstall)
it really shows how much psyker farms purple
the entire spawn of a H40 run that took 80 minutes equal to 1 psyker in a havoc with purple
this was purple + rot with no krak vet
Checked my old weapons, this should be 501
Something there is lower than 80
Is 76% still capping many of em though?
Being 2023-2024 player who returned... you automatically get now good stuff pretty much
Little late, but the short version is that modding in darktide is really easy. The scoreboard mod itself doesnt have a main author anymore, but people in the darktide modders discord usually volunteer to fix it if updates break it. Link can be found in the communities channel
The damage per enemy type breakdown is from a seperate mod called ovenproof scoreboard plugin
i cant wait for him to find out he's the one doing the least damage, with that fucking attitude

people who whine like that are usually the worst performers in the situation
either in actual damage, or in meaningful damage/tasks etc
2 more tox gas maps until I never have to touch it again
dont make me put on a 3rd 10% xp
do it i fucking dare you
lose even with 3x xp curios

this is more interesting to me tho for now

Dom Torreto?
FAMBLY
Hes kind of fat now
He is almost 60, leave the man alone 
People say my partner looks like Vin Diesel, but I don't see it.
Then again. This chat has accused me of being face blind. 
evertime i see a new psyker im reminded of this.
i feel like she does okay but so far it's been melee psyker doing the heavy lifting for me
Bio- + pyromancer psyker 
Heal on burn damage inflicted + if at full health heal whoever has the least
WTINESS THE MIGHT OF HOUSE ORSELLIO
cassia starts the turn, groups up enemies, buffs the everliving f out of argenta, zones everywhere.
argenta with heavy bolter goes next.
no more enemies.
gm siblings
didnt play for ages
two new classes lol
do we like the hive scum?
nice. if i get the dlc can i use the weapons for psyker?
damn
they look a bit weak vs armor?
Nope
The only class weak against armor is Arbites
Mid ass class
The dog is cool though
is there a chill loadout for me to test on psyker? new talents looking good btw.
Check pins
Even the YouTuber agrees with me
Wait
Shouldn't it be vice versa
I should be the one agreeing with the YouTuber
Omg what do I do now
I find armor easier as arbites
Whats that?
The class that can fairly easily stagger crushers out of overheads?
And kill them in a few hits?
Ah yes
Few
But never 1 hit
How many classes can 1 shot crushers?
How many classes can't?
That's all you need to know


I don't agree with the premise that not one hitting crushers means a class is weak against armor.
Except 5 classes can do it
In a world where 5 classes are able to 1 shot
A class that can't 1 shot is nothing
Mid ass class
The dog is cool though
In generally used builds?
Yes lol
Odd, i guess people are dogshit at pixking builds then, since i rarely see these one shot crusher builds.
But hey, arbites weak, buff please.
So it can 1 shot crusher too. 
One shot and bully everything around it?
Yeah
Ogryn does that
So why not the paid class
I'd say 5 years until we get an Arby's rework
More often Temu Jason Statham, woody harrelson, ben foster, or chris elliot. Only occasionally Vin Diesel
problem with arby is the only thing its actually good at is being immortal
burster? nah, thats only half your toughness
Not really, I saw some that hit the ground faster than my absolute paper of a psyker.
well yeah, its easy to die in any class
C'mon mate
If we use bottom tier player to measure a class
but, you can literally have a build that makes you unkillable
the only thing you need to worry about are trappers
its real dumb
like, its kinda fun for a bit, but, output isnt much
But I'm bottom barrel with an atrociously sanity snapping horribad build.
The fun is shutting brain off unless needing to solo.
Weak Aura
Was that not obvious?
You should rise above the odds
Why though?
Loner aura 🤢

You know I'm a failure. I even failed at ending.
Not this again 
Loner is really the shittiest thing in this game... It is effectively no aura.
What aura?
Pretty sure I'm already doing better than the avg pub with not insane ping.

With how traumatised I get being last one alive even with Rinda karking me over.
i feel like he doesnt know, no one tell him
You wish Rinda was karking you over
No interest, I rather sleep with Hallowette and deal with her mocking my poorness.

Why do nawt want but rather than Rinda.
Stop horni the heretics 
Hallowette is not a heretic thankfully
Hallowette isn't a heretic, just a greedy moneyfaced profitmongerer.
good
for a days progress so far, not bad at all
are you farming da kills with inferno psyker
Hexis on the kill farm:
hell yeah
More accurate
psykers upon becoming inquisitors
So, I just played Psyker for the first time in a while last night. Jesus jumping Christ, Crit Scrier has crazy uptime with Warp Siphon.
I don't even need Inferno Staff with it, I'd rather run EK for the reliability at range to kill specials.
I might even switch my FS out for GFS just to see how well it does comparatively.
Melee 
pick up the 10% melee attack rate node if you do
you will notice before/after with it
I have it as part of my build.
Melee Wizard is extremely fun now.
Like once a week I consider dropping it. I run one match without and then immediately take it back lmao
One day they'll make Scriers Gaze actually good by giving it baked in 20% attack speed /s
Wait where is 10% attack speed node
Scrier's Gaze is already very good, and designed to work with both ranged and melee. It really doesn't need extra attack speed with all other bonuses.
About midway down the tree in the center
Iirc
Oh yeah I see it
Already had to checked off, my brain was just having a little stroke
The melee wizard build on the website recommends the right-hand keystone, and I'm sure the extra crit damage is great, but I like Warp Siphon for the uptime it grants on Scrier's Gaze.
the boosts of DD are extremely good because theyre up basically all the time
its good enough that you can run a competitive melee build without sg just by using that node
DD outdamages WS in basically all instances except for fire and voidblast.
And with Psykinetic Aura being buffed for us now I don't even run CDR aura nor CDR curio perks and still end up with effectively 100% scriers uptime no matter what I do (especially true if Warp Unbound is your primary motivation for using SG)
depends on mode and team
like if hes playing heresy then theres no way psyk aura is enough for consistent uptime on SG
Granted, I wouldn't fuss too much about minmaxxing in heresy
sure, but that would explain where hes coming from
can be
Idk I haven't seen heresy in a while and I sleepwalked through it with hive scum
id be more concerned with the sudden wet noodle effect that can happen
youll go from one shotting a ton of stuff to just not doing damage because sg comes down/you lost enough peril/lost enough dd stacks
i dont think warp charges solve that the way dd + sg does
amazingly my empowered assail wall trauma build didnt make the meta list, cant imagine why

Melee

I am open to feedback, of course. But...
Also, I don't think SG struggles with uptime even without WS. PA ticks down even when in SG, so I can often activate it again even before it ends. Or at worst, before Warp Unbound ends.
Though that might get changed, going solely by the functionality of the Scum left and middle actives.
It's impossible to run into serious uptime issues unless you forgo both PA and WS entirely
Laaaame
Babymode talent
Are psyker blitzed affected by equipped weapons in the way zealot throwing knives are? (or were? It's been awhile there)
only assail if you switch while they are still flying
ABD: Always Be Dodging
Drop empyric shock for perfect timing.
if you're not dodging as often as you can with maximum efficiency when not firing you're not dodging enough
especially on psyker who has the lowest reset timer on effective dodges I recall
you can also jump which also resets them I recall, psyker can dodge fast after landing from a jump too
But can't dodge mid jump. So don't do it when a mutant is charging or a mauler overhead is happening. 
Idk about the reset. I'd have to check, but null dragon tends to be correct about those types of things.
eh this is mostly memory from vermintide 2 stuff
but also don't do this outside of zealot or psyker only those two classes get to be ADHD crackheads
(maybe hive don't know about their stats)
idk if its jumping resetting them
it looks like its just the perfect time frame for them to reset
using numeric ui to see the countdown bar, is what im basing this off
oh, I need to upgrade my staff before damnation then...
though ragers are the problem now
If it doesn't reset, the feeling of jumping might be an ok internal sense of timing for the reset.
looks ok, like potato said, drop empyric shock for PT and you also need to drop something else for empathic evasion. Probably warp ghost
You can lmb stagger them.
Warp ghost or quietude are the dropable talents there. Both are good.
Since ER isn't used here, I agree about dropping warp ghost.
Also drop Immaterial Focus for Empathic Evasion
Warp Ghost, my beloved
Ye is also dropable.
Dropping ghost does change curio setup imo. Possibly less access to hp or thoughness.
Ok bet thanks for the tips folks
And yea I’m dodging and sliding literally constantly 😭😭
I wouldn't take JaD on a staff build outside of SG.
Actually shit, how should I set up my curios I’ve been told my current ones are dogwater
There's a curio section in the build bonanza in the pins. 🫡
Oo bet bet
The psyker build bonanza is the best class guide I’ve seen tbh.
I play on Diff 3 regularly with this psyker, so that's probably why. As for WS, it's been my experience that I've reliably gotten max stacks during SG's uptime, and with 6 stacks that's 45% CDR. I have had instances on Heresy where I've had SG off cooldown immediately after it's ended.
But getting warp ghost means you get +3 stam from a small node + warp ghost itself. So gaining or losing that much stam will likely affect your curios.
Unless you do x1 HP and x2 toughness and call it day. lol also valid
@strong gulch hi
hi
I do 1 hp and 2 toughness with warp ghost, it's very nice
That’s what I’m currently running as well
ive only played inferno psyker f or 100 hours so far
how do i play the smite psyker?
You don't
smite discourse 53968932258843778 has begun

🍿
You play melee psyker 
Meleeker + smite
If you really want to, do it with Venting Shriek, Warp Siphon, and all the soulblaze and warp damage you can cram into it.
EK staff is handy if you need CC in a hurry, but isn't great for hordes, so run either FS or GFS depending on which you are more comfortable with.
The WS is so you can use VS more often. Also, take the node with it that gives 10% chance of stack on soulblaze kills.
im doing it for the quests
im mostly asking what goals you do in a fight and what are u looking otu for, when to use G and F
:(
I need to make a JaD clip to match Ainz's smyker clip


You want Smite (G) when there's ragers and maulers mixed in a horde. It'll add brittleness and letting go early can knock down walkers and such around the unyielding, making it easier for teammates to follow up.
F is when you are at high peril in order to set everything ablaze and keep your smite going, since you can vent without letting go of smite.
Smite doesn't add brittleness afaik.
Just the small damage boost
There used to be a node for it, maybe not anymore
I believe the damage boost is worse than brittleness due to order of calculation
Oh heavy agree
Now it’s just +10 damage from all sources
But basically, you should be using smite for the knockdown of weaker chaff around mixed specials, and shriek for the soulblaze since it burns hordes.
It's a support build at the end of the day, not a fragger.
Yeah then you say fuck that
And have fun
And you go melee psyker 
Never mind


Then you say fuck that
Warp Syphon Scriers Smite
Hold smite from the Mourningstar to the Mourningstar
Then you go back to melee psyker 

I get that, but I'm answering the question that was asked.
The question was "How do I play this?" Not "Should I play this?"
Stop trying to make smite cool

This looks recent. Is that the event tin can?
Only have 3 more event missions left.
It's not loading so I'll assume it's the double barrel barrel incident

Heh
"incident"
The 3 shot double barrel 
I'm not. Even in its optimal use-case, Smite is not as useful or fun as melee psyker. A horde that is dead does not need to be stunned.
Just keep in mind
Big numbers use smite
Low numbers use melee/ranged
And you'll be fine
Or charged GFS
what blessings and perks on the inferno staff?
I know I was saying it facetiously
Blaze away and CRIT chance
Blaze Away + Warp Nexus, Flak + Unyielding/Crit chance
Depends on the person but Crit Chance a d flakand warp nexus/ blaze away
thoughts on unyield vs crit
100% do not drop flak
Crit chance is my fave
yeah i got ti mixed
I prefer unyielding, personally
Inferno staff hits very often but has low base damage. You want as much crit as you can squeeze out
Wrong, it adds a lot of brittleness to my psyche
You’re gonna use some kind of melee to kill unyielding. But crit chance means you get more synergy out of the talents
does it have good finesse modifiers then?
I already have 40-50% crit chance, and due to rate of fire that averages enough crit to keep every crit talent up as long as you burn things.
can dots crit?
It’s cold so you are already brittle
is that soulblaze specific?
Not in Germany it's not
It does not have good finesse modifiers. But a crit adds 2 stacks of dot instead of 1
ah
And multiple talents rely on crit
But you still aren’t at 100% uptime on some of the crit stuff….
Not sure, but if you run Scrier's you can get increased finess damage.
the reason you want high crit is because a crit applies an extra soulblaze stack
Extra soulblaze stack, but also EE and Mettle and whatever else
and since most of your damage comes from soulblaze its ez 
And things like Perfect Timing
or does it really need the help for bulwarks and reapers?
With Unyielding in H40, I often have the highest boss damage on Inferno + Shriek.
ye and all the other perks that rely on crits ofc
There is that, but also the added damage from crit makes soulblaze more likely to kill, doesnt it?
unrelated but pretty much
Crit is a good choice. It synergizes well with Inferno. Neither crit nor unyielding is a bad choice, and I think it comes down to preference.
higher soulblaze stack = more dmg > higher chance that soulblaze gets the kill
works for warp charges
Both can be true. I was mainly asking if the extra direct damage makes it more likely for enemy hp to reach the soulblaze kill breakpoint or not.
Breakpoints are honestly hard to work around in this game
ngl you kill so fast that breakpoints matter less
Especially with something like Soulblaze
It does good damage on bosses and heavy armor because you can get stacks on them then either run while it works or switch to melee and double up the damage
and ye soulblaze is tick based so dont expect it to just onetap
Some weapons have important breakpoints, like one-bopping enemies with bromentum axes, but otherwise it's eh
basically just hold rmb and watch the horde die
A thing of the past
With uncanny + superiority, you can boost soulblaze on crushers by like 6x
Yeah that’s why I said it does good damage
We are in agreement
main thing you want to aim for is fast clears on elites and specials, which you get naturally from having high crit
I should actually level my psyker tbh
YES YOU WERE
I haven't liked the feeling of levelling it 
i personally have crit + flak
with empyrean resolve
does that effect toughness regen from all sources?
because you hit the enemies core and most are just flak
Yes
or just coherency regen
havent used +unyield
I might try Crit + Flak again at some point. Flak + Unyielding just feels like a safety blanket for scary bosses in H40
also dont run cara pls
I think it doesn’t affect coherency regen or the regen from BLESSINGS that give toughness
But everything else
seen that once and got scarred
All sources. ER is very good, but you will feel the toughness gen loss.
You have the vulnerable minds now
Reduces the amount of peril generated by 40%; stacks multiplicatively with peril cost reduction buffs from Becalming Eruption, By Crack of Bone, Inner Tranquility, Kinetic Resonance, Reality Anchor, the small Peril Resistance node, and Combat Stimm.
Also reduces the amount of toughness replenished from melee kills and talents by 30%. Does not affect toughness replenishments from coherency toughness regeneration and weapon blessings (only Momentum is affected). This replenishment debuff stacks multiplicatively with other player debuffs like toxic gas.
With Ghost though it’s negligible
on what? I tried scrolling up a bit for context, but couldn't find it...
Which means even more damage. >:D
Firestick
I'm still firmly in the anti-ER camp and I'm happy it's no longer a choice between it and PotS so I can completely ignore it.
inferno
I use ER on some builds.
Inferno stick
UM ACTUALLY PENETRATION OF THE SOUL
MAKES IT AMAZING
I mostly recommend ER for bubble builds.
And I only really recommend PotS on trauma builds.
Trauma has .8 on flak and carapace
Quick guys build inefficiently because Six can feel every lost point of damage
I made someone like meleeker, is gud yes?
Ah yes you made them play your bees build and they said “THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING BETTER”
Naw, they went from standard purga to meleeker actually.
Every inefficient build...
i love perilmaxxing (the whispers aren't stopping lol)
I feel a great disturbance in the warp, as if millions of points of damage suddenly vanished.
I made sure they never touched smite except for penances.
I think being able to see squad builds on havoc runs just makes you cry
Yes.
