Until he finally got overheaded

#

Smykers make me go >:(

deft stump
#

When you hit 9 deaths in heresy, you really shouldn't be in it.

knotty saddle
#

finally made to psyker keystone...

#

now I can do damage? maybe?

deft stump
#

The real gates are getting mastery on FGS/FS/Staff of choice/guns.

#

Staves only shine maxxed out.

#

FGS feels awkward before maxxed, then an absolute monster.

knotty saddle
#

theres 5 other gun classes in the game ;.;

#

and the staffs didnt feel very good while leveling

#

but now my staff feels fast and I can vent cycle really fast too

deft stump
#

Strike is always bleah.

wraith sphinx
#

my issue with "carreer smykers" is that they also tend to be incredibly entitled. last time I played with a smyker he started shitting and pissing himself in chat after getting flanked and bonked by a crusher on account of being way out front of the team

#

bro went "well done you morons, now you don't have me to control the enemy horde, you are FUCKED" and we just kept playing as normal lol

#

fastest block in the west

knotty saddle
#

now youre just omegas

zealous wing
#

what a fuckin dumbass of a smyker

knotty saddle
#

btw what blessings for Blaze Sword? I have electrokinetic staff, brain burst, warp siphon build

I meant the evidence

I don't see it

exactly

#

what do we think the next class is going to be

#

psyker 2?

#

or zealot 2?

#

since so far we have smallgryn and vet 2

deft stump
idle plover
#

I want really full on support oriented class

hollow summit
#

Naw mate, that's just asking for more versions of book zealot and smyker

idle plover
#

Jokes on you i dont use reddit

fading shoal
#

But you and that reddit poster are hell as dumb

idle plover
#

Do not compare me to some reddit dwellers

#

I hold myself to some standards at least

fading shoal
#

sub-standards*

idle plover
#

How rude and baseless accusations

wraith sphinx
idle plover
#

But i really want sister novitiate and weird ass sisters weapons like stakethrower

zealous wing
wraith sphinx
#

And I really wish we'd get a new map every major update

hollow summit
#

Inb4 we get zotann

idle plover
#

That'd be funny

#

I really want to see admech crowd go bananas again after they gaslight themselves

wraith sphinx
#

I'm probably gonna stay tuned out of darktide until the next major update since I'm hooked on helldivers 2 again. New warbond is mad fun

knotty saddle
#

ive played with a psyker almost every game leveling my psyker

#

and we just had a double force greatsword lobby

#

man that was fun

#

its like ogryn lobbies but psyker

idle plover
#

Ive had exactly one smyker in havocs and i do not want to see another

wraith sphinx
#

oh and I officially can't stand the commodore's vestures horseshit any longer tryppin whoever is responsible for store rotations needs to have their priorities reevaluated

fading shoal
#

Woe upon you, another rotation with Witches Fingers trinket included

wraith sphinx
#

witch fingers? green laspistol skin? krieg? aw fatshark you shouldn't have

idle plover
#

Vigilant autogun skins

fading shoal
#

Vostroyan cosmetics

idle plover
#

Recoloured cosmetics coming stylishly after ive bought the og's

radiant frigate
idle plover
#

Im not excluding them having combat skills

#

Obviously

wraith sphinx
#

we've heard player complaints that the store rotations are getting a bit stale, so we're briefly rerunning never-seen-before steel legion sets!

idle plover
#

Im not angling for killing floor medics here

#

But i simply like the skills which buff teammates like chorus or stimm supply

fading shoal
wraith sphinx
idle plover
wraith sphinx
#

actual fomo bruh

#

pmo

wraith sphinx
#

not even the IG regiment recolors are consistent like why does only veteran get that cool forest camo steel legion set

zealous wing
#

i think the worst part is we cant even try to come up with NEW things a new class would do

#

both new classes so far have been "can i copy your homework" of the other classes

idle plover
#

Yeah

zealous wing
#

scum has infinite corruption immunity to the whole team, zealot has beacon of purity
scum has infinite ammo, vet has the "las weapons dont consume ammo on crit"
scum has ammo sharing, vet has the aura
scum has ranged attack immunity, psyker has ranged attack immunity
scum has rampage to shove even monstrosities... TWICE! zealot has chorus, vet has shout

i would argue even that arby has more unique stuff.
damage capped at 50? nuncio for revive speed boost and enemy attack speed debuff? the dog itself

wraith sphinx
zealous wing
#

like yeah both are WAY overpowered, but arby is the most unique of the two, ironically enough

#

still, steps on oggys toes a lot

idle plover
#

Imo arby is fine as the tank for players who are not comfortable with ogryns sluggishness

#

Hive scum for most part to me was miss

#

I only like bonesaw and stimm supply narco playstyle

zealous wing
#

i would even argue arby is a great support for an ogryn as a less effective tank but also some DPS

#

ogryn full taunt, arby taking care of the clutter in a safer manner while the crowd controller/slaughterer (psyker, usually) clears the trash itself, then you have a zealot or vet taking out the incoming threats like specials or ranged elites

#

arby is for if you want a tank/DPS, ogryn is just a tank

idle plover
#

New classes mostly comes down to weapons that wouldn't sit with existing characters

#

Like the maul and shield would be out of place on vet

wraith sphinx
#

I don't buy the whole homework copying argument about the DLC classes. Both arby and scum have distinct playstyles

wind spruce
wraith sphinx
wind spruce
#

dont even use it

idle plover
#

And hive scums dont fit on psyker or zealot well

#

Like with sisters weaponry one could argue theyd fit with zealot

#

But like i can hardly see bag breathing zealot using stakethrower

#

Or sword and dagger combo

deft stump
idle plover
#

Valid

deft stump
# idle plover Valid

Ppl rage if you don't want to play medic. I just pick class and save for autoshotty.

zealous wing
#

same people to rage if a psyker takes shriek instead of bubble on inferno

idle plover
#

it made me actually think that very few coop shooters have healer as a role

#

killing floor is only one i can think of

hollow summit
#

Blergh, medic in kf2 is just kill zeds but also slightly better at healing

zealous wing
#

a healer would absolutely not work in this game

idle plover
#

yeah not in this gam

zealous wing
#

the medicae is carefully spaced out, you only get 4 medipacks for a reason

#

its very RTS

idle plover
#

healing is limited from getgo so its more important resource

#

healing would break the whole gameplay flow

zealous wing
#

i was told 4 medipacks spawn per map at most

pulsar hazel
idle plover
#

yeah and in most coops you got reviving

#

in kf you die

#

so having healing is paramount

pulsar hazel
#

sm2 has bulwarks and snipers as revive andys ig

deft stump
idle plover
#

having reviving kinda removes requirement of active healers

pulsar hazel
#

tbh damage mitigation is in some way a healer esque role

#

but not quite healer

fading shoal

#

Train is always 1/1.

idle plover
#

port vermintide 1 handed mace and sword to darktide

zealous wing
#

ye train also guarentees at least one combat stim, i know this much

deft stump
deft stump
zealous wing
#

i cant

idle plover
#

imma keep running that reload aura on arby to piss people off

zealous wing
#

train is so boring

#

same withthe twin fight skip farming

deft stump
zealous wing
#

the penances will always be there

idle plover
#

its the battery retrival section that is always most bothersome on train

fading shoal
#

The train mission's music never gets boring on the other hand

zealous wing
#

ill get it eventually through QP but im not grinding this out lmao

deft stump
zealous wing
idle plover
#

heresy

fading shoal
zealous wing
#

i listen to my own music

hollow summit
#

I like doing train

zealous wing
#

thats why all of my clips have random ass music in them kek

fading shoal
#

This is a Jesper Kyd house, sonny

zealous wing
#

dw i have his songs in the playlists too

hollow summit
#

Train weeds out the noobs very rapidly

fading shoal
#

okay fair enough

idle plover
#

i would play music but darktide is bit intense on my pc so i dont want to keep browser open

zealous wing
#

but then i have very random music that just makes things funnier or sound more epic than they were

hollow summit
#

And I dont have to drag their ass around for 15 minutes until we all drop

zealous wing
#

but the timing felt perfect

idle plover
#

me popping ramstein zeig dich when last man standing

zealous wing
#

own music = more interesting moments

idle plover
#

i would be just dropping demon hunter or ramstein every match

knotty saddle
#

ok I just saw my first smyker

#

they spam died

zealous wing
#

welcome to the world

knotty saddle
#

despite there ALSO being 2 electrokenetic staff psykers in the game???

#

actual lightning spam

zealous wing
#

if theres a smyker, and you have 4 people, no you have 3 people

knotty saddle
#

also I think my psyker is really starting to take off

#

im mass killings things, most of which I never aimed at and are not on my screen

zealous wing
#

wildfire + kf

knotty saddle
#

its like everything in my region of the map in a certain direction just randomly dies

#

oh yeah I do have wildfire

#

what is kf?

zealous wing
#

kinetic flayer

knotty saddle
#

ah

zealous wing
#

if you have a fire build, you want kf

#

free damage is free damage

Eh, if half my team drops before second bomb i just accidentally dodge off the carriage

so far all of my psykers downs

#

are to myself

#

in every difficulty

#

too much warp...

zealous wing
#

lol sounds about right

#

own worst enemy

sage pulsar
#

gotta just blow up sometimes don't you? It's good for the soul

zealous wing
#

yeah sometimes you just need to let it all out

#

otherwise you open a portal for daemons to come through so

sage pulsar
#

yea don't think beloved would like that.. or they would, not sure shrug

zealous wing
#

thinkin about making my fem savant fem seer

#

idk

#

the pain of liking 4 personalities but not having 4 slots available for mains

sage pulsar
#

a real pain indeed.

I'm happy I just particularly like the flavour of crazy of a seer

zealous wing
#

yeah they're gold

#

m loner definitely my most favourite, but seer is good too

#

fem loner and m savant tho both lackluster to me

hollow summit
#

Squeaky german man

#

With his incomparable mind

zealous wing
#

my answer, rebreathers

sage pulsar
#

squeaky german man is fun too yea. If I ever make an M psyker I'll defo make em a loner lol.

#

"maybe I ate em"

xD

Brawler asked if a canticle is tasty earlier

sage pulsar

damn, Loner calling out everyone huh?

zealous wing

he doesnt discriminate

zealous wing
sage pulsar
#

lol

zealous wing
#

i also have this, which is just, everyone when they dont know what a marty zealot is

hardy citrus
#

i cant believe there's a do 50 pox gas mission penance

#

that's just cruel

zealous wing
#

yeah its rough

#

pox gas is the most forgiving, itself

#

medstim spam

#

its the fucking BOMBERS

hardy citrus
#

yeah idk

#

it's crazy how the modifier both covers the entire map in pox gas

#

and then spawns more bombers so u cant even get away from it

deft stump
hardy citrus
#

current ptsd is consignment yard

#

in the little rooms after the data interrogator event

#

1 pox bomber covering the entire room in pox

ASCENSION RISER

hardy citrus
#

i dont play asc riser

#

if it spawns in i just leave

zealous wing
#

let me find my tierlist

hardy citrus
#

i hate that mission

#

it's so BORING

hollow summit
deft stump
hollow summit
#

While I was on my last wound

zealous wing
hardy citrus
#

LOL

#

ur so fucking real for that asc riser tier

zealous wing
#

wait

#

its OUT OF ORDER

#

WHAT THE FUCK

hardy citrus
#

I actually like dreyko a lot

#

it's got lots of nice rooms and stuff

deft stump
zealous wing
#

it supposed to look like this

#

why is it this on the view part

#

how fucking dare

wraith sphinx
#

I still stand by mine.

knotty saddle
#

what did ascension riser do to you?

zealous wing
#

exist

deft stump
#

I like how they karked all the pics except for No Man's Land.

zealous wing
#

actually i think its NML thats karked

#

unless thats what you meant

#

its crisp instead of having the filter over it

wraith sphinx
#

oh and NML is in my S tier as well

zealous wing
#

its ok

wraith sphinx
#

all S tier missions have either trains or (moving) tanks

zealous wing
#

its fun on melee psyker

#

but like

#

its a map

#

a fun map

wraith sphinx
#

rolling steel and no man's land also have my favourite map specific soundtracks of the bunch

zealous wing
#

rolling steel is just, a 7 minute mission with a chance to give you a 56s intro from kayex

hardy citrus
#

i dont like rolling steel

hollow summit
#

I hate the first part of the smelter mission

#

Fucking ledge with a probable boss spawn right at the end

#

And tons of barrels

zealous wing
#

ok seriously

#

why the FUCK

#

is it not letting me put them in the right order

sage pulsar
#

machine god has spoken apparently

zealous wing
#

NONE WILL STOP ME

#

i managed to do it a very roundabout way

#

FUCK ascension riser

hollow summit
#

Oh yeah ascension riser

#

Boring end part

deft stump
zealous wing
#

i see you btw roy this was jsut very very important

deft stump
#

Makes me hate KX tbh.

zealous wing
#

still hate him less than dukane

#

fuckin bitch

sage pulsar
zealous wing
#

when scriers is down, fire like, 4-6 shots then tap quell

deft stump
zealous wing
#

can tapquell after 2 shots if your peril is too high for your comfort for a decent dump

zealous wing
#

i do noTT careUH for surprises-UH! i uhstrive eveR for certainTY

deft stump
#

I literally can finish 2 10 x 10 nonograms before he finally shuts up.

#

On phone anyway.

sage pulsar
zealous wing
#

youre a psyker

#

its gonna happen no matter what you do

hardy citrus
#

who was it that blew themselves up yesterday

#

or was it the rando

zealous wing
#

vect

deft stump
deft stump
hardy citrus
#

oh no i actually didn't mean that one

hollow summit
#

I usually explode on ek lel

zealous wing
#

vect exploded himself during h40 clutch because he started the bb at 97.1

hardy citrus
#

but yeah that happened to

#

i assume the safe point was 97?

zealous wing
#

yeah

deft stump
zealous wing
#

97.0

hardy citrus
#

lmao

hollow summit
#

Kek

hardy citrus
#

thats just unlucky

zealous wing
#

its a genuine shame

#

he had almost max health, was almost perfectly clear

deft stump
#

Is why I edge lower. Or save vent for accidents.

zealous wing
#

he was dealing with the final flamer ๐Ÿ˜ญ

hardy citrus
#

Yeah

#

we were a ways ahead but he couldve done it

deft stump
zealous wing
#

otherwise it might be me who exploded but i dont remember

#

i was the only other psyker

deft stump
#

He is probably still unamused by it to this day.

zealous wing
#

while i was present, ofc

heavy dagger
#

force sword or dueling sword for ek staff build

zealous wing
#

dueling sword for mobility, if surge surge, FGS if you want hordeclear for RMB

#

but if you know how to move, FGS is fine for either

idle plover
#

force sword with deflect also good just in case vs gunners if not running shield

zealous wing
#

you need kinetic deflection for it to be really viable

#

otherwise its just general defensive blessing

idle plover
#

that too

sage pulsar
#

why'd it need kinetic deflection for it to be good?

zealous wing
#

to block bullets well

#

otherwise you block a few bullets and your stamina goes poof

sage pulsar
#

ah I see

deft stump
#

Wait.

#

5+9+2.

hardy citrus
#

16

deft stump
#

Yeah, that.

#

You can survive the hail for a decent time though, still more a funni meme thing.

#

With KD and -peril nodes...

#

Well, a DH combo is 2.5% peril.

#

4 attacks, 2.5% peril damage.

hardy citrus
#

Need to nip out for a bit Despairge

#

need to buy new paint

deft stump
hardy citrus
#

Iโ€™m tryna paint my death company but my white is really old and kinda watery now

#

The store I frequent is just a ways away

stone canyon
#

I had this idea (obviously not new or anything) as im struggling getting into havocs with randoms and its really hit&miss with the teams. One rolls over all content and i feel carried, another has members that would go down even in malice probably. So inferno bubble psyker seems to be the most consistent "anchor" for teams like that to help em survive... But what if id also replace brainburst with smite for extreme emergencies? Is there any good synergy in that idea?

mighty ibex
#

Yo should i skip this battle of tertium campain?

#

after i did the last special mission

#

i mean this wolfer's ritual

hollow summit
#

You mean the 3 new maps?

#

Technically 2 new maps but still

zealous wing
#

well

#

one

#

theres one new map

mighty ibex
#

i played all 3 maps

#

so i think i can skip it

#

right?

deft stump
hollow summit
#

I just quickplay so idk

hardy citrus
#

I donโ€™t care for campaigns really

#

Theyโ€™re basically all low intensity which is giga shit

mighty ibex
#

bruh

#

i skipped and i got black screen

hardy citrus
stone canyon
#

Well i have no such principles so... asking if its viable still ๐Ÿ˜… staregryn

hardy citrus
#

Anything is viable if youโ€™re good enough

stone canyon
#

Sure, cant take out that 50m+ away sniper, but i have bubble for that

hardy citrus
#

Imo smite makes shit harder half the time

#

Because itโ€™s someone not doing damage

stone canyon
#

Id have it mostly just for emergencies when it looks like team is about to fold

hardy citrus
#

Ultimately most of these people

#

If they were going to go down

#

I think theyโ€™d still go down anyway

stone canyon
#

Also, does flaming em first so dots are running and smiting afterwards any good?

#

Or alternating the two

hardy citrus
#

Itโ€™ll keep them still whilst they burn I guess but I think youโ€™re probably better continuing to soul flame

#

Soul blaze right

stone canyon
#

Last Havoc i did we failed the first one with others dropping quickly unable to deal with rotten armor, so the psyker of the team then just mostly smited the 2nd one and it was fairly easy if bit awkward to slowly take down those crusher packs, so got me thinking of doing it in more aggressive flamey style

hardy citrus
#

What rank are you playing around

stone canyon
#

I just started em, did my first auric maelstrom so got into 16 and last one i did was 22

#

Returned to game after 1ยฝ year break

hardy citrus
#

Iโ€™d say that explains the swingy teams but tbh that never stops kekW

#

Best way to kill rotten is via dot, since rotten dr doesnโ€™t apply to dot

stone canyon
#

One with rotten armor was harsh, while next one after it felt too easy

hardy citrus
#

Youโ€™re probably better abusing uncanny with inferno rather than anything else

stone canyon
#

Yeah i wish i had been on my needler scum instead of vraks iag desperado

hardy citrus
#

30 with rotten is like, 35-40 without unironically

stone canyon
#

But the psyker with smite carried it so it just got me thinking of having such panic button while mostly doing actually damage and helping team with bubbles

zealous wing
#

k so

#

poxwalkers oneshotting in h40 i understand

#

but riddle me this

#

how the fuck does it one shot me in damnation

hardy citrus
#

They donโ€™t even oneshot in havoc

#

They just do like 70 damage a swing

zealous wing
#

but in damnation

#

i had full hp one frame, downed the next, "downed by poxwalker with basic melee"

#

fatshark did something

#

im not the only one having weird issues like this either

#

they changed SOMETHING

stone canyon
#

You sure you werent hit like by plasma gunner in back first you didnt notice, then instantly followed by punch from poxwalker?

zealous wing
#

i am sure

#

those fuckers are loud

#

and, again, it was damnation, there isnt even close to the density needed to start making things silent

#

150 hp, 117 toughness, maybe some toughness chip because meleeker at lvl 13, but it mattered little

#

in all my psyker levelings i've not had issues like this

#

this run is so cursed

#

they 100% fucked with something

#

my guess is they tried to fix dodgelinger as well, and did the opposite

#

i dodge, cleanly, and, "what dodge lol" says the elite

hardy citrus
#

Was there an update today?

zealous wing
#

no but they dont need that

hardy citrus
#

I guess they couldโ€™ve tried to hotfix it

People keep telling me that Psyker is a free win, that the class is OP

Play bubble inferno with randoms and report back. Or, better yet, get a random to play it

plucky flax
#

I do it plenty actually. It feels like teammates play better cos bubble keep them cosy. PeepoHappy

#

But my damage suffer so I don't like it. SadgeCry

ripe obsidian
#

Do you? I have never seen it outside of bubble knight

#

I haven't played bubble in a while. Last time was when I was lagging hard with you and played rending trauma bubble

plucky flax
#

Hmm I did when I was playing on HK server.

#

Cos they flame SadgeCry

ripe obsidian
#

I feel like bubble just puts me at the mercy of my team. I have so little agency or ability to push situations

plucky flax
#

I don't play purg bubble on EU

#

Cos I can counter flame since I can understand them

#

Unless Ruski pepesurrender

ripe obsidian
#

Last night I had a team that was upset I didn't take bubble

#

So I swapped off of Psyker and let them do it

#

They died first and did under 100k damage

hardy citrus
#

Are you two around atm?

ripe obsidian
#

That team had one decent person and two quite bad players. Was frustrating

ripe obsidian
#

And then the realtor was 15 minutes late.

hardy citrus

#

I think I am around.

hardy citrus
#

I will be around in like 10 min

Iโ€™m 2 stops out from home

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

We have had issues.

#

Both of us.

#

Lots of getting hit by melee mid-dodge

#

Or hit by specials, mostly dogs and trappers, hitting us when we're very clearly out of the way

#

I think @hearty wolf did also

icy breach
ripe obsidian
#

Ah

hardy citrus
#

ok

icy breach
# ripe obsidian Ah

like srsly; watch the clip yet again; after that lag was still persisting (hence sliding enemies & players); not even the sniper shot was audible cause of lag
according to my friends POV; i got shot twice

hardy citrus
#

i am home

icy breach
#

despite 1 being visible to me through the entire clip

  • another clear indicator of lag is when you dodge/move fast somewhere & you return to the place before (thats what happened to me there; despite being down the small stairs i got back to the original point where i dodged from = lag happened before i put input for dodge = the sniper was able to shoot me & hit me)
hardy citrus
#

yep ok

#

i am now around

#

@ripe obsidian u up to play now or do u want some time if ur not awake

ripe obsidian
#

Go ahead without me. I would play like I am drunk right now.

hardy citrus
#

well it'd just be me and chaos

u can actually avoid them

you can avoid being eaten too

Worst part, it took the BoN nearly 10 mins to release me

I was long dead by then.

Is there no release in a sane time if no other players are alive?

10 mins is just stupid.

@zealous wing computer fucking crashed. Great start already

icy breach
#

you have no idea how hard that one is

hardy citrus
#

so

frail tapir
#

wow I just met the example of a horrible smyker

#

they were smite spamming and at the end when I asked them about it they said they knew it was toxic and didn't care

#

I didn't think people like that existed

#

Well I see why everyone hates smykers now

hardy citrus
#

it's also for the simple fact they're using smite in the first place.

frail tapir
#

well I thought that everyone doing it just wasn't aware of how toxic it was, but it turns out that someone can be completely aware of it and still be a smyker

sage pulsar
#

I'm sad smyker is toxic because like... sith lightning. But alas

hardy citrus
#

it's funny to me because tabletop smite has more strength than a bolter

#

and about the same arpen

#

Smite in lore isn't like "haha I'm tickling the enemies in place"

#

It's "oh fuck that guy just got fried so bad his innards are becoming outers"

If psykers become lore accurate what's the 1st thing to happen in mission

Babies with kitchen knives basically

white sky
#

If you want the honest answer

#

It's "cadian probably guns them down"

verbal thistle
#

Fair

zealous wing
#

isnt that what the exploding collars are for

#

to kill the psyker before they actually spawn something

white sky
#

Are they actually bomb collars?

zealous wing
#

someone said they were, im not a 40k nerd

#

they seemed to be

verbal thistle
#

It's suggested they are

white sky
#

I figured they were just psychic hoods tbh

verbal thistle
#

I don't think there are direct lines though

hardy citrus
#

are they?

zealous wing
#

the explosion is also not tagged as warp damage

#

its normal damage, and procs mm

Schola Psykanium?

Is that the name?

hardy citrus
#

scholar psykanium

#

yeah

white sky
#

Yeah

hardy citrus
#

I thought that was one of the background options

white sky
#

I mean

#

That doesn't change the personalities

hardy citrus

nope it doesn't

white sky

And the personalities are defo not sanctioned lol

hardy citrus

some of them aren't

Loner is generally pretty sane

it would be so fun

fatshark i have a havoc modifier idea

hardy citrus

i wonder if i should run CDR on vet

zealous wing

but it should be merged with some other goofy shit

something for each class

make havoc actually entertaining with the bullshit you can pull or have happen on known chance

rather than "woe, stinky sticky floor be upon ye"

Exe is good, but it's just a bunch of stats

which is boring

it works really well because rot is elite spam

it's still just kinda borin

white sky

You can just Exe Stance and Swing Powersword

It's very much an option

crisp ether

Shout isn't the end all be all anymore with how sauced up ES is now.

but shout is still more fun

It's a good weapon, I just hate using it lol

i just wish psword wasnt so annoying to use. they tried to make a middleground with falcion and they made the falcion so shit

hardy citrus
#

I donโ€™t find it that bad

indigo plank
#

I think after multiple years now of having weapons that didn't require me to be SUPER finicky with the special (even crusher maul doesn't just mindlessly spam special anymore) I can't go back

hardy citrus
#

I like having all its power concentrated into a few swings

indigo plank
#

Yeah, that's the feeling I get from the illisi

#

But weirdly enough not the PS. Probably because the Illisi can still kill while it's off

zealous wing

special spam is the only thing that keeps illisi even kind of afloat

#

very sad

genuinely

sexiest sword, shittiest versatility

I still prefer it to the deimos when paired with either bowling ball staff or a gun

Deimos is just so good though :(((

with gun i use FGS

I try to give the FGS a break when I can

have you tried obscurus at all?

it got buffed

its still great

Current PA is way more consistent for the Psyker

zealous wing

all blitz can access it, which means no more "MUST HAVE BB OR SMITE!!!1!" from havocers

#

that alone is a buff

modest perch
#

yea thats the monkeys paw aspect

zealous wing
#

and the uptime on it is stil real good

#

and since scriers can have its cooldown shortened even while its active, is very tasty

ripe obsidian

PA has like a 90% or higher uptime on H40

I wish I knew the design philosophies Fatshark wanted to fulfill for each class.

i bet you they do too

eh its a mixed bag i guess

whats bad about it now

in your opinion

remember how the old one gave the whole team cdr ?

and it was a flat reduction rather than a rate increase ?

ripe obsidian

It wasn't flat

icy breach

it was busted; glad its gone

ripe obsidian

It was like 4%

Or do you mean just a decrease?

oh right

i still have the old archive if you want to see the old tree

ripe obsidian

It was swingier, either way

#

Was a Win More button

nocturne dust
#

Psyker's a win more class

hardy citrus
#

not even

ripe obsidian
#

I've played with a lot of godawful random psykers this week

nocturne dust
# hardy citrus not even

Psyker has the hardest time getting out of a hole and soloing. Psyker excels when team members are a wall between them and enemies.

#

Psyker needs space and time to cast his magic when on staff. You can play melee psyker, of course, but then you're a Zealot without any of the mistake forgiveness

hardy citrus
#

uuuuh

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

yeah fr

ripe obsidian
#

Meleeker is absurdly tanky

zealous wing
#

i always be in the front on aurics

#

havent really gone melee in havocs in a while but have a few times

#

lack the confidence to havoc

#

i see a wall of elites in auric and i go nuts

nocturne dust
ripe obsidian
#

Oh, I just remembered a second time I died mid-dodge to a rager during a clutch attempt. Dodging definitely feels really off this weekend. Like they pushed a netcode change to the servers on Friday

hardy citrus
ripe obsidian
#

Psyker has 4 or 5 different DR nodes and like 6 toughness regen nodes

#

You can tank a fucking lot

nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

psyker can facetank a crusher overhead without dying

nocturne dust
#

I'm aware

ripe obsidian
#

Not even the right build. Just a halfway decent meleeker setup

nocturne dust
#

So the right build KEKW_ogryn

ripe obsidian
#

???

zealous wing
#

and you shouldnt be ACTUALLY tanking anyway

#

on any class

nocturne dust
#

Let's be real, a halfway decent meleeker setup is a lot further along than most randoms

ripe obsidian
#

You're talking about melee psyker. Yes, melee psyker is tanky.

zealous wing
#

toughness regen on melee hit

hardy citrus
zealous wing
#

first talent i always take when leveling psyker

nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

halfway decent is a really low bar

#

whats usually lacking is the skill rather than the build

#

actually to regen the toughness before getting hit again

#

which, is still easy enough just smack something

ripe obsidian
#

Melee Psyker is more forgiving than Ogryn, Scum, and Vet, easily. Only True Grit Arby and Zealot with Death Defied or whatever up are more forgiving

nocturne dust
#

Than Ogryn?

ripe obsidian
#

Yes. Ogryn doesn't have dodge linger.

nocturne dust
#

Yeah, but dodge linger isn't the only metric

#

And aren't we talking about tankiness, not dodging

ripe obsidian
#

Immunity to ranged attacks for 0.25 seconds after dodging is tankiness.

zealous wing
#

to be fair thats more "survivability"

ripe obsidian
#

If we're talking the ability to stand still and get hit repeatedly on H40, then you probably shouldn't be playing H40.

nocturne dust
#

Tankiness to me means how much damage you can sustain, not how much you can avoid. Everyone has dodges, and Ogryn may lack linger but he easily makes up for it with how tanky he is.

ripe obsidian
#

Tankiness in Darktide is not the same as tankiness in other games

#

Tanking here is avoiding and mitigating damage while drawing aggro from threats

nocturne dust
#

Even accepting that, I think you overvalue the dodge linger.

ripe obsidian
#

I absolutely do not

hardy citrus
zealous wing
ripe obsidian
#

Dodge linger works even when out of dodges

hardy citrus
#

and then it was they had less bulk than zealot

nocturne dust
hardy citrus
#

but frankly

#

if you're trying to facetank shit

#

everything is winmore

#

because the second u start losing u start floor cleaning

ripe obsidian
#

You can spam dodge and be immune to ranged attacks

#

Forever

hardy citrus
#

^

#

even at -9

#

lol

zealous wing
#

for now

#

speaking of tho

#

i cant actually get that to work reliably recently

nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

i think they DID try to patch it

hardy citrus
#

The death company marine ive been working on for the past 2 days just had his arms drop off.

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

nah it's actually beneficial for me

#

he had a boltgun

zealous wing
#

Lmao

nocturne dust
hardy citrus
#

I'm planning on replacing all my boltguns with boltpistols

#

i might need to buy some more arms

#

but it's fine

#

since new deathcompany have heavy bolt pistols

#

I wasn't gonna replace that one since id spent so much time trying to get his arms nice

#

but if it's happened

#

fuck it, may as well LMAO

ripe obsidian
#

Bad Ogryns die a as much as bad Psykers in H40, and they usually are less useful before they die

zealous wing
#

xD

#

a good outlook

zealous wing
#

roy was a fuckin badass today

nocturne dust
hardy citrus
#

I could just stick the arms back on regardless

hardy citrus
nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

never did a havoc before, we pull him to an h40, and he did surprisingly fuckin well, didnt die right out the gate, stuck with us

nocturne dust
#

i.e. your output isn't increasing

hardy citrus
#

He didn't die that much at all

hardy citrus
#

rocket

#

and chem i guess

#

most classes are running the cheap regen nade options

#

because that's what's best atm

#

their output isnt really going up either

#

vet has 4 kraks and they'll kill, 5-6 things at best

#

zealot has knives and they will just kill specials when they're around

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

oggy has either a SINGLE frag or rocks

nocturne dust
#

I mean, the power in shout is it gives you time to do unmitigated dps, no care for defense

zealous wing
#

i think psyker being constant is better, there is no "save this bomb for when shit gets re--oh no im downed trying to throw the grenade"

hardy citrus
#

sure but psyker is doing that constantly

#

so vet matches psyker ability for a few seconds

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

nah

zealous wing
hardy citrus
#

we didnt get the clear

#

i recon we could do it tho

#

he can hold his own

#

and that's all he needs

nocturne dust
hardy citrus
#

frankly

zealous wing
hardy citrus
#

They have so many tools

zealous wing
#

scum has attack immunity

hardy citrus
#

fuck think about smite

#

ur getting pushed back

#

start smiting and u have suddenly brought everyone a huge amoutn of time to do whatever

zealous wing
#

zealot literally has a "i cant die yet" ability

nocturne dust
#

Defenses tend to be lose less, so... are you agreeing?

zealous wing
#

if everyone is defensive, then yeah you can win.... after an hour and a half

#

just take the permasmyker and be done with it

nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

the best defense is absurd offense, which psyker has'

zealous wing
#

but youre also saying psyker NEEDS a wall of teammates to do so

nocturne dust
#

Well, no

ripe obsidian
#

I'd say Vet is the most win-more class. Ogryn is probably the worst. Oggy is basically the same regardless of game state. Veteran with a good team can go wild. Scum as well.

zealous wing
#

so why the fuck is inferno psyker the best clutch tool ive seen

nocturne dust
#

I'm saying psyker does better with a wall

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

so does every ranged class

zealous wing
hardy citrus
#

melee psyker doesnt care about wall, they ARE the wall

zealous wing
#

poor vect

#

he didnt deserve that

Melee psyker isn't psyker, #changemymind

Haven't seen a shredder vet in months

I was using them today!

specificially for rotten

Have seen one shredder vet in months

would ever run them outside of that

raw flax
#

okay so question. I got the force greatsword and like it functionally, why would I not run the regular force sword to have quicker animations ?

raw flax
#

its for an inferno build so its RARELY used if at all except to block

hardy citrus
#

u run regular force sword on inferno

nocturne dust
hardy citrus
#

u run fgs on melee setups

nocturne dust
#

Unless you really hate muties

ripe obsidian
#

Because the greatsword has better damage and better ADMs and a better special attack.

But you don't use FGS with Inferno

raw flax
#

That big a diff? what blessings would yall run ?

nocturne dust
#

but like, bring dueling sword instead

hardy citrus
#

what

#

no

ripe obsidian
#

Force Swords

hardy citrus
#

do not bring dueling sword instead

#

๐Ÿ’€

ripe obsidian
#

Deimos or Obscurus

zealous wing
hardy citrus
#

yeah

#

uncanny and unstable or deflector i think

ripe obsidian
#

Uncanny + Superiority or Uncanny + Deflector

hardy citrus
#

i dont know if you really care about others

ripe obsidian
#

Depends on the goal

hardy citrus
#

doies superiority stack on non melee kills

nocturne dust
zealous wing
#

and yeah do NOT use dueling sword on inferno

#

it blatantly shows you dont know what youre doing

ripe obsidian
#

Superiority for making Soulblaze shred crushers, Deflector for survivability

raw flax
#

not running dueling sword cause im sick of it period. What do i run on great force sword ? I have deflector and unstable power atm deflector to help with my ranged struggle

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

Donโ€™t run fgs on inferno

zealous wing
#

but for melee or such thats perfect

nocturne dust
#

Gotta get that mutie hate cranking

dusk timber
#

What about EK staff

zealous wing
#

the reason you want a normal force sword (grab deimos for the best safety), is because of what we call uncanny stacking, via push attack on the crushers

dusk timber
#

Do you also run normal force sword for it

zealous wing
#

depends

#

surge surge i use dueling sword, for mobility really, but might go with obscurus sometimes for flavour

raw flax
#

oh shit so I want regular force for inferno?

zealous wing
#

yes

#

mark deimos

nocturne dust
#

If you want to make use of uncanny soulblaze

raw flax
#

same logic with the vet krak build ?

nocturne dust
#

or deflector

zealous wing
raw flax
zealous wing
#

ah yes

#

exactly that

#

to stack uncanny on the fire, giving the fire rending

raw flax
#

so thats how folks are shredding the walls of rotten armor is doing that after ramping the stacks up ?

zealous wing
#

push attacks on force weapons are always a weakspot hit

raw flax
#

Ive been spamming fire non stop hoping lol

zealous wing
#

watch the clip and you can see how dom does it

#

they're auric crushers but its the ssame regardless

raw flax
#

do you have his build sheet by chance ?

zealous wing
#

its likely the one in the guide in the pins

raw flax
#

mainly for talents

zealous wing
#

inferno shriek section

#

without empyric resolve

raw flax
#

this thing ?

zealous wing
#

looks like it

ripe obsidian
hardy citrus
#

Hmm might hop back on for a bit

ripe obsidian
#

FGS gives you horde clear that EK lacks

#

Plus better armor damage

#

RMB is decent against crushers and such, but FGS poke is better and faster

zealous wing

i am torn between darktide, vintage story, enshrouded, and burgle
