you'd just hear fifteen overlapping special noises 24/7 and have no idea which one is the actual primary threat directed at you
too many sounds going on at once
its very important that the sound level is lineated per player
you start dodging a trapper not meant for you and then get shanked in the spleen by something else
When I meant global I meant like... Specifically on their body so you can track their position
as annoying as it is to be blindsided by a somewhat-quiet mutant the reality is that none of the specials are ever actually silent (outside of a small handful of very fucken annoying areas that are bugged)
spawn doors my beloathed
I am still shocked I haven't heard any trapper sounds aside from prepared fire before I started to just listen to Metal Hellsinger while playing the game.
How the hell did I miss trapper sounds?!
you didnt know you were trying to hear it
its like when i first learned that the barbeque lighter sound was the indication of a flamer spawn
the void from which no sound escapes
100hrs, i swear i never heard it
suddenly, hear it every fucking time
cant miss it
and it seems comically obvious
that's funny because i had a friend call these out
That is shockingly easy to learn. I am shocked I have been missing trapper sounds I swear to god
he does not have any max level characters
im a stoner with an unreasonable affinity for audio
i hear specials spawn on the other side of th emap
but i never put two and two together for the flamer
OOOHITSABOUTTOGETHOT
other than -- yea
WONTEMCWISPY
and ofc the best one
fire

FIRE
DEATH
RENEWAL
Yes
At least I have the event done so it's not so frustrating long-term trying to play the game. I genuinely hate this event.
Too much suffering for me, especially as a newer player
Trying my best anyways
krak barrage :)
Trying my best to get better
yea i just back out if there's a hive scum
pineapple of doom :)
other nades are fine imo, deffo strong but not game warpingly so
chem grenade still strong
I just go with the flow. I don't care how busted your build is or if you are the weakest guy, I honestly don't care.
ya thats why i dodge the scums lmao
just not Elitus Deletus on impact
oh no its not 'bad' builds here
But damn yeah I agree rocket needs nerf bad
theyre too fucken good and just demolish this event
its incredibly boring
im out here wanting to sweat out of my tits with a thunderhammer and stun grenades
You should get angry at the fact I used smyker during this event.
and some dickhead with a needle in his arm just says hello goodbye to the entire wave
before i can even press special
Yeah, rocket needs nerfed baaaaad
personally not a fan of the blitzes that rely on pickups
so not sure what i would do with all these
i do think grenade regen should be baked in for everybody at this point
of some description
rokcet kinda cray cray
within reason
yea
I actually agree.
It should not be veteran exclusive
obviously this event is not ... a good example
because blitzes seem like an integral part of everyone's toolkit
and some of them are just
limited
EXTREMELY
the event refills nades on amount of ogryn kills (idk exactly)
so you can have infinite nade
yeah and that sucks
oh no i wonder what's going to happen this time
roket :)
oh no another pack of crushers
roket :)
i have no idea how you play thammer
is it thrust
all i know is the one time i tried it i just suffered
but maybe headtaker slaughterer is just not the play here
ah so skull issue then
thrust + your choice
yeah fair fair
i went with slaught for the event
anything below h30 i do slaught + head
cause i just find it more fun and dynamic since the lights on the hammer dont slouch
at least
on the crucis
think i will just stick to relic blade
the other one is dogshit
yeee that one has great rhythm
just takes some getting used to
plus it looks sick
(so does the mk10 but different)
no uppercut tho
my issue with the mk10 which took me a while to figure out is that two of its attacks have the exact same animation/damage profile but combo off each other differently
i really tried to get into it because people swear by it but all those people mash left click almost indefinitely and thats boring as fuck
mk10 is definitely easier to get into
actually trying to swap between the right heavies and lights without doing a full reset was just frustrating as fuck
put on martyr and press f and mash
I JUST HAVEN'T BEEN LISTENING

kind of the issue i have with shivs
they are indeed very spammy

It really needs to be limited to one, not four rockets
when it works
roket :)
I'm trying to learn Psyker. Is the electro staff with greatsword/scryers gaze a good choice?
or do I have to take bubble?
you dont have to take anything
choose what you enjoy
In this case its either anti ranged or toughness/defense/damage buff
is good
one of my current favorites
that is a good choice
okay thanks. scryers does does so much damage i love the style lol I just need to figure out how to quit being so damn squishy
midsection DR talents, quietude, bcob
gunner resist toughness curios
et voila
warp knight unlocked
okay night i have 3 toughness with revive/ability/something else on all my other classes, ill just stick gunner as the 3rd
Hey guys, so I'm leveling up the Psyker for the first time. What defines a "Warp Attack"? Is that like Smite, Brain Rupture, and Assail?
force sword weapon specials, all 3 blitz, and soulblaze DoT
Thank you! π€
"'Warp attack' refers to a list of attacks that have their damage types denoted as warp_damage_types: Force Swords' activated attacks, Force Greatswords' activated attacks, Force Staves' LMB, Force Staves' RMB, Electrocution (Smite, Electrokinetic Staff RMB, Shock Maul special action), Soulblaze, Brain Rupture / Brain Burst, and Assail."
Does the name blaze force sword mean there are other types of force swords?
yeah
got a second TS run with the same team. Well, I am counting it as TS. Only death was someone getting barreled into the abyss. :D
of wait, do you mean like frost force sword
beacause I meant there is force greatsword
Something like that yeah
Well
Considering that the Grey Knights have Nemesis Force Sword
Yeah it's possible
Does it change anything?
Probably not

Uh
What's that one
By the blood angels guy
Ps vita or whatever the sword
It like burns with angee
*anger
Vitarius
balanced class
bestest class, another into the 4mil vault π
4.1m in 47 minutes
Nice
I am assuming you got a bunch of big purple hordes to solo damage?
yeah it was constant purple armor spam
if rot comes back im going to play taunt ogryn for vect to try and get a 5m game π π π
My best is 4.7m in a purple + rot
In like 36 minutes, at that
No one had armor clear.
The best I have gotten lately is like 2m to 2.5m.
if your team is too good they'll steal too much damage to get 5m, if theyre too bad you'll be on pace for 5m but probably lose
Meanwhile with good people and scum you can struggle to be top damage with scum rocketing all the HP clusters
Surge surge better
scum of equal skill does like 90% of your non boss damage and 300% of your boss damage
rampage shiv scum is a special kind of stupid
Chat Iβm literally Psyker. I have funny voices in my head
not ideal distribution
indeed
yes, the voices, we all hear them
there's this shieldgryn that only plants down his shield or otherwise tanks
Sry was me.
Any recommended build for a beginner psyker?
I feel so squishy and get my self killed a lot. Right now I am using the voidblast staff and duling sword.
maybe a gun psyker using SG and assail
should be some in the pinned build guide
staves are usually not that good while they're being leveled
otherwise you just need to practice dodging, pushing, blocking, and positioning yourself
peril management can be tricky in the beginning, especially when all the staves have low warp resistance early on
Use a gun and assail.
Trauma is extra awful below minmaxxed stats and lvl 30.
Ok good to know thanks you 
It's good after, but really don't suggest it till you have at least lvl 27~.
I have a build in the big guide, but if you want more specifics, could try.
Looking at the big guide now but by the way what is assail?
Nvm saw it in the guide now
Make sure to take the time to practice your melee. We are a melee class in a lot of builds and itβs worth learning the movement and rhythms of melee as a result
@zealous wing what rules do you use for your new psykers to make leveling them interesting? Iβm guessing only found weapons, anything else?
Met one a few times doing the event, think he had ASS title or Havoc. It was funny but he did it all the time even when everybody started dying. No revives or anything.
Seems to be 3 ogryn kills. I ran into a player who had some kind of mod which would say a preset script in chat.
Something like "Mission Modifier: ___" and other details.
Yeah when I pick new melee weapon I try to look for its combos to see if I like it
lv1 psyker is so weirdly balanced
your actual warp attack is shit, but your starter weapons are literally dclaw and laspistol. there's never any reason to use brain blast or whatever it's called
You laspistol till lvl 4, then assail.
also i've heard people complain about smite. what's wrong with it
Easy to abuse
Ruins the game for the other players.
so it's not just "OP"?
Yeah it goes beyond being just op
It's both OP and trash at the same time. OP cos perma stun but trash cos it does nothing for damage and ruin fun for others. Also stops certain buffs from proccing.
The main problem is psykers discovering it's good (which it is) and then never switching off off it and never learning how to properly play the game cos they just smite smite smite
i'll try smite in uprising where nothing actually matters, but i like being a team player so probably won't go with it after
Can you tell me how fun it is if the entire run was vs Psykhanium enemies?
maybe it's good for penance farming idk
All it is is for it's own penance.
A tauntgryn with slab is better for penances.
Pulls them close, increases damage done and then other guy drops a fire 'nade or so.
Depends on penances.
Also they get funneled into the fire instead of spread out.
i'm not a penance addict just kind of theorizing what the use for it is
but i do have a slab tauntgryn so yeah that makes sense
I mostly like smite for stunning e.g. bulwark clown cars
so someone else can easily take them down
comes in handy with the current ogryn spam event
Personally I think smite should be more like a chain lightning spell from DnD or Diablo
Just bouncing horde clear? Sounds like assail.
hmm, yeah
burster spam even more tbh
gotta say the guide did 180 on my experience with the class I enjoy it so much now had to get used to not being zealot/arbites XD. is there a reason to switch assail later on? I see the hate on smite but is the brain pop better later on?
I'm a little confused.. I stabbed this ogryn reaper in the head with my deimos and it died and then the reaper behind it also died too? Was that because of cleave
Actually it looks like the 2nd reaper dies to kinetic flayer
BB is more for staff builds but is decent.
Or very lazy gunker/meleeker.
KF lul.
Oh ok :thumbsup:
Or you could be a chad and run EP telekine wall BB BRRRRRR
Yes!
With the charge rate buff and the EP buff you can chain very fast BB between elites/specials.
And the wall gives you the breathing room to do so
Watching how this fatshark dev does in the event ππ
Do tell.
Are they just smiting?
Oh. I guess better than smyker.
I was the idiot in that match lol. I ran meleeker in that High Intensity Brutes and Blasts, and had decided to swap from BB / assail to Smite (just for those crusher packs), but idk how to use Smite.
I should have just stuck with my usual. Now I just look like an idiot who couldn't even use Smite right lmao.
Just beeg sword bonk with BB.
Does anyone actually know how Empyric Shock works?
Do you have Kinetic Flayer?
But it has stacks?
Yeah up to 30%
But there's no visual indictator for how many stacks?
Yeah! I think that's what happened, I was just confused because it doesn't look like I'm close enough to hit that 2nd reaper
Yup

Weird very weird
count to five
sometimes i lock them to specific weapons, like only knife was one, or i think a heavy sword is next on the list.
knife or heavy sword? le pass
Psyker11 was leveled purely through auric was another
that sounds fun
basically forcing myself to really remember the basics, and learning how every weapon works is something i want to do, even if they suck
Hi i wanna ask about Malleus Monstronum penance. It requires player to BB a monster with 50 damage. Must that be exactly 50 points?
50% of its hp bar
You need to do the majority of the damage to it.
oh i thought just 50 points dmg, that would be insane to controll lol
Best way to do it is with an Ogryn doing shield and letting the DH rail against them into a corner or something
ok i see. thx
Ideally with a 3rd player guarding against disablers, but I've done it with just me doing Ogryn helping a Psyker
do you have time now?
oh i remember you. last time we played penance together to get skull lol
in about 10-15minutes ill be on
thx, take your time
I'm also available in like 30min
what an amazing community XD
No, we're awful and rude and cruel. >:(
especially that one guy
i think his name is seven or some equally or even dumber numeral
Yeah, especially him
just the worst
If the Grinch and Scrooge, both pre-revelation, fused, he'd still be worse
does true aim work on inferno staff
i think the weakspot hits can be melee, but even if it did use the crit, it would be so inefficient
hit something in melee 5 times with weakspot hits, fire one tiny puff of fire, itd burn out before you finished the next batch
i did see him ingame a while ago, he doesnt seem to play much at all anymore but he was alive so theres that
i am loading in now
π«‘
we can wait for the other if you like and just hang out meanwhile
Perhaps a stupid question. Do the staffs have weak spot multipliers?
rdy
π 𦴠πΈ
Star Trek 4
little bolts always and voidstrike yes
Thank you!
I finally tried voidstrike staff, love the audio effects and how it sounds while charged up
the arcane cannon claims another
Heck yeah it did! Until I slipped on a banana peel and found myself playimg my zealot instead
I hate that the relic blade is so satisfying to use
I haven't tried stealth but I was watching Ainz' 4000 hour zealot video..
We're both playing the same game but I'm drawing stick figures with crayons while ainz is painting the mona lisa 
best not to compare oneself to ainz
Compare yourself to Swai
Sneaky elf.
in shadows i find thee, sinners..
dump stat for inferno staff is warp resist right?
Yes
thnx
Stealth hammer bonk Zealot has become one of my favourites
i do not like the hammer
I didn't used to, it feels very slugglish trying to deal with mixed hordes, but I've got the hang of it.
Best blessing
@radiant frigate the elf keeps carrying me around
know that you're among the least annoying mayflies i have not yet slain
Annoying nontheless
At least our deal of I kill karking elites + fodder and you handling bosses and disablers works wonders
Until platefaces show up
Guys, is someone using a macro to spam the staff of psyker inferno?
what, like the puffs?
@plucky flax do you remember like a fat minute ago we played on consignment heal rot and you had like 6.7 mil dmg but we lost and it was basically a duo, do you have a screenshot by chance lol
Yes, some people do.
it's more noticeable on ppl using macros for quick melees with force sword
i feel like a lot of psykers who take venting shriek dont realize how good scriers gaze is
atleast in terms of not acutally using venting shriek for what it is and just a peril remover
what
that's quite a take
not a good one
but quite a take
so genuine questions but which staff do yous think is better stronger,, voidstrike or voidblast
been trying strike but my god i cannot even survive a group of crushers
strike is fun but it needs to do better AOE
its kinda just m1 assail
with some aoe
i feel like my class for strike is just trash dmg
you have to like go all in with SG
like 4-5 blasts to kill 1 crusher or bulwark
voidstrike should be like rumbler where it can like aoe dot stuff too
i quit playing ogryn because i felt rumbler became weaker to me
most times i see venting shriek in a build its because it can stop peril/overload
or just the aoe soulblaze which is like
just use inferno staff
scriers gaze is insanely strong
inferno is so fun
- with perks that regen ability faster you almost always have it active
just make it combine pulse rifle alt fire
can't possibly be broken
I've come to like both SG and shriek SB trauma
what is sb
soulblaze
shriek spreads SB
and yea ik that shriek has the aoe soulblaze but
literally just use inferno staff
its better
not always
scriers gaze is still way stronger
i havent used vs ability in so long
handles armor easier without uncanny stacks
like u get a little aoe of soulblaze for your entire ability
and also just another skill entirely from inferno
vs scriers gaze which lets you just keep spamming inferno
like let me post my loadout
sg inferno is better than vs inferno
scriers gaze with inferno just clears hordes so quick its fun
hell nhah wtf u mean
ok buddy
this shit strong as fuck
combine it with warp charges
you get like +60 damage
- the 30% from blaze away
doing like 200-400 every tick
that sure is a build
pure range
stacks higher together than what just inferno can do by itself
SB is the dmg part on inferno
not the flames coming out of the staff directly
inferno has crazy range still
it does not
but you're free to run whatever subpar builds you want, it's not like smite that's hurting others
bro u do not know how strong this is
use it and see
shriek aint got shit on sg
this is the new meta
I think you need 1 more wound curio though
only 3 is not enough tankiness
and you need blazing spirit on the illisi to max out fire damage
then it would be a perfect build I think
what
you're telling on yourself here
this game is going to be abandoned for the pre-alpha live service launch of vt3 in 2027
how
that is what people have told me
i dont use VS
dont bother its not good
i only did for penance
who in the fuck has told you this
SG is good. Use it if you want. But Shriek is insanely strong.
It overstacks soulblaze, has 30m of range, sub-10 second cooldown, staggers crushers
infinite cleave
Yes, infinite cleave in that 30m of range
in a 2m damage game with Shriek as my primary source of soulblaze, it'll do like 800k-1m damage
That's with non-blazing trauma or EK
I meanβ¦ Iβm definitely gonna move over. Need muh fiery balls!
ok but compare the dps that SG can output
especially with the fact that you can have SG almost active 24/7
its not comparable
again, Shriek does ridiculous DPS
they do 2 different things
shreik does more then gaze
if we are talking numbers
lordy, havoc is a mess today
weekend
I'm getting rejected from lobbies way more than usual, and when I host my own, I'm getting some really iffy players
everyone is on
Whats the best support psyker stuff
What's your definition of support
if u want that classic vibe of "i am supporting" then you prolly are wanting some CC staff like trauma
Some shield
Dome*
If your talking for this event then use the voidblast staff
support to me is killings faster since if enemy are dead they cant hurt you
or if u wana support thru killing a bunch of trash (and pretty much anything else) then purgatus staf
perma CC
Good for knocking crushers and stuff on the floor and stunning
Keep teammates alive
Dome then
then kill the enemy faster
Or do that
@sharp island do a couple games with purgatus staff and trauma, then repeat do another couple each and see which u vibe with more
u can make most weapons work and i think you play better with weapons u really like to use xD
I dont like most staffs
how come? are you max level and do you have them upgraded with high tier blessings and stuff
yuh
what i usually do in games is check out how people use them in the highest difficulties on youtube or something and just skip around and see what i vibe with, that way u can see how something is relatively close to its max potential and see if youd fk with it
only takes like a minute per weapon xD
Weapon Spec + DB Shotgun vet is very funny
ilas vet is decently funny too
Hey iv been trying to figure out the blessings to use on void strike
Whatβs the best blessings to use on the staff?
Nexus + Surge/Flurry
how do people do that tech with the purgatus staff where they have multiple light attacks go super fast?
macroing
should I attempt to keep warp resistance as low as possible on my force greatsword? IDK If i should try to keeep it beloe 60
What exactly is the macro?
Wondering: I'm looking at the build guide, and I'm working on the Blast + Blaze build. Wondering if there's any guides on play/piloting, like the best melee combos, which abilities/etc to prioritize when?
This is with the voidblast staff + deimos force sword.
Best melee combo for Deimos is L1 > H2
The 2nd heavy is the attack you really want
It'll knock over crushers on a headshot
Also note that push attacks will stagger crushers
I don't have any videos, but folks like AgentChaos and Vect have youtube accounts with Voidblast/Trauma builds. Probably
With force sword and flame staff how do you actually do ranged damage
Thanks. So using this combo with smite the only viable way is to be incredibly close ? I like the flame staggee but it does not help me on boss damage
Smite is a bit redundant when you have the flame staff
Ngl I wish brain burst was charging a lot faster
It feels like forever in higher difficulties when you need that one fuck ass sniper dead now lol

Nothing but a few nades can stagger bosses maybe abilities too don't remember if voice of command does it anymore and I am not using forge's bellow for scum
You need to learn how to chain blocks and dodges so you won't run out of either
It's possible to 1 vs 1 most bosses in game without taking any damage
brain rupture is the only thing that'd help you with boss damage, smite isnt helping you much at all with this kit
@ripe obsidian are you soloing or can i inv u
Smite is crowd control
Assil is a weak mix of the two jack of all trades
BR is burst single damage, especially for high HP enemies and bosses
"weak" lol
Well not weak, more like a jack of all trades
was funni
Lol
was fully ready to post my "assail weak" clip
Post it man
I don't have a gif for this
do you need a mod to get this?
might have to cop that, im used to seeing stats from playing vermintide
kinda miss the post game stats
most ppl show way more stats i only like a couple lol
I neither recall the game nor have the screen 
So real I flame every inferno shriek users I see
that was probably the best clutch I've had in a while
big gaming
mine was better, did you see how i was last alive and i ran into a shotgunner and died immediately
I was like, "I can die and bruh moment will carry, nbd"
I aspire to such skill
I don't know if this arby build is actually any good, but it is quite fun
Walk menacingly at enemies and shoot them
almost 3mil dmg without healing with gun arby was not expected at all
almost first game trio with goofy builds, it looks like it worked well xD
This is what I have built atm
oh its not even mid keystone nice
Might swap to toughness gen on stamina use and tdr instead of toughness next to doggo and +10% ranged damage
ngl i think the chained weakspot talent sux, or i sux. when i look at my uptime i have like literally no uptime on it
I haven't been using uptime because it killed my FPS
I can try it again and see how it looks
could change it slightly to this. Lose some ranged damage, but get more reliable toughness regen and +10% TDR. Dunno.
i think for that shotty id see if the talent gets u close to any breakpoints on like dreg ragers / gunners n shit, or even if it doesnt, if it makes u close then maybe the blessings / other ppls talents on team will idk xD
yeah, I'll keep poking it to see what feels best. I'm trying not to give up too many melee talents so that I can still do things in melee
tahts what i try to do on all classes, like a lil point here n there for the gun or melee if its not the focus xD
Also not sure I need the doggo bleed node, but it makes the dog that much more reliable about killing elites and specials
When I last tried it I feel like it did nothing but I havent rly played diarbetes in a min
It seems to be about 1/4 of my total doggo damage
or more if I micro the dog and get good AOE on pounces
it's not rly worth it
unless u play boltpistol and micro the dog 24/7
boltpiss
the aura farm attempt is crazy
The shout for gold toughness and still took over 20% health

Trying out the better movement mod, is pretty good
Being able to just hold dodge to dodge+slide to the sides and back is cool
i just use it for the dodge while sprinting
pisses me off that i try to w-d/a and dodge but instead i just jump and get shot
I don't have an issue w that because I made dodge a bind separate from jump forever ago
I wish theyβd completely remove dodge sliding tbh
The game looks and feels dumber and spammier because of it
i do not acknowledge the existence of this move
i never dodge slide
sprint slide sure
Howdy fellow two handed sword users, and others I suppose
Work sucks today
Only 30 more minutes left
how dyou do it?
Dodge slide mostly only for positioning tricks with a slow heavy weapon or avoiding bursters
Or getting out of a fire faster
Learning something new every day
on the flame staff, does the liught attack have less range than the charged attack?
It has less aoe for sure. Not positive on range
i feel so weak early game. yes i know, its early, but with other classes i felt much stronger. my staffs 2-3 tap normal dudes
is that normal?
Reddit is so stupid.
"This ability sucks in havoc. BTW I don't play Havoc."
Yes
great, i was scared im doing something wrong
Psyker sucks until you get close to level 30 and can max out staff stats
assail?
Nade option, the shards
This is the recommended path, yes
Right one iirc
Psyker staves are really weak with low stat rolls
Assail is pretty consistently strong from level 5 up through H40
sad
i really like the explode one
the one that can charge up and clear waves
yeah im using it rn
having a blast
Is that an intentional pun?
it's been about a 5-8% overall damage increase so far.
This is what I have been using for ranged-focus. It seems to be working well so far.
iffy talents are ammo belt and doggo bleed
but I am not sure what I would want instead
honestly the fact you like it already is good. it literally only gets better
definitely my favourite staff
if you've got resources to get a staff to mastery 19 immediately, then go for it and build as you like tbh
assail is really strong on lower levels (and still good later)
but the main thing to make staves good is mastery 19 rather than personal level
Yes
mastery 19 = can level it up to 500
I went from mastering both shield weapons on Arbeites to glass Cannon psyker
I went down 10 times on level 3
Fun
And only 1 time it was self destruction
Well, it's funny smite
psyker is so squishy until you get empathic evasion
once you have that you can just hold your inferno down while getting actively barraged by a wall of gunners and just not give a shit
having an improved ability is also really important, basic shriek is terrible
shriek with venting is crazy, as are bubble and gaze
you're sorted for it not feeling like ass once you have that imo
Yeah I don't like it at all
I never use it
All of them seem ass tbh
venting shriek is crazy man
Why so
6 stacks of soulblaze in a truly gigantic cone
it kills gunners
and mostly everything else
good synergy with warp siphon
also utilities, knocks dogs off people through walls etc
I think I skipped all staffs until I hit lvl 30
What the fuck
Yeah I see what you mean now
venting shriek alone, with no other source of soulblaze, does like 800k to 1m damage in a 2m damage game
It's so good
it's 30m of AOE, infinite cleave, staggers even crushers
does crazy damage
sub-10 second cooldown
sometimes wish trauma could fit better in melee builds
but perhaps it is simply
skill issue
I like trauma staff users tbh
Good damage, good control
Not a metric fuckton of visual pollution
Same as Arbeites dash ability?
You line up good, and I knocked over 3 Crushers
How are you not dead
Every time I get to 100% I have 0.5 seconds to get rid of it or my character does a little animation that locks me out from either attacking or draining
skill most likely
i have... a few hours of playtime
oh the casting
scriers gaze
warp unbound node
Thank you
and, btw
Also what's up with the hud
the starter shriek, saves you from overload
try using it when you start the animation
i have mods to make the buffs i want more visible more visible
scriers and upgraded shriek do the same
(save from overload)
Fair
Thank you a lot
hold W and start taping LMB and Shift
you get the tempo right you get that, you get it wrong your character starts to spaz out
A few 
It sounds unrealistic, certainly, but you just need to approach the event horizon of a large enough black hole and time dilation will handle the rest
Mad
thanks!
ye it definitely doesnt FEEL like that long but here we are
Nice
the sauce?
the build

what mod is that that shows buffs icons displayed? Been thinking of wanting to use something close
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a1005f75-f2d5-4353-ad09-96218a14f7b0/adhd-mode-lol
and, better buff management plus custom hud
edit to add, the build in the vid has malefic momentum instead of immarterial focus, that point can be shifted around, im still testing things
do you know what the dorfan deimos macro is?
if i play vet, should i expect that psyker take care of my backline horde while i'm trying to kill specialist or am i doing wrong?
i'm a little confused about this
how am i going to kill those gunners waves if i should take a look on my back at every moment

reducing their health to zero usually does the trick
You just do or die.
they should but they also have to focus on keeping the tank and boss dps etc clear, so if youre hanging behind the inferno you share some responsibility
and yes
ALWAYS keep an eye behind you
Big if true
Source?
trust me bro
big
Okay, I will trust you Bruder
sut i did like 8 solid hours of auric maelstroms. you cant tease me any longer 
random note but still
I can, and I will
Not today I won't, no, I'm watching The Fall Guy 
i am actively in bed
What the fruck
We can play sometime this week though, in the evening
i apparently play best with loud music, no sleep, though the arby casti button is fun in a "this is worse than i thought lmao" way
i pressed F, and ran into a cluster of 15 bursters, and still lost only half my toughness 
Please nerf Arby
its SO BAAAD xD
@zealous wing loud music while you darktide!?? Nuts. Though I imagine after 3000 hours you no longer need to listen out for cultists. They need to listen out for you!
This makes me think of that imperial guard dude that drove sentinels using his FEET
loading video
Feet on the steering controls
I'm back to watching my movie, we can play this week
you go to sleep now though, good night 
You invite everyone to play but me. 
You can play with us
Also Hexis force invited me
Want to help me do the monstrum penance some time this week
I can, if nobody has helped you by then
I thought he needs eep?
Yes, we aren't playing today, later this week
Ah.
I do not. @rocky stream
burninate all things in front of you. Soulblaze shreds everything that isn't a crusher
i assume its quell cancel l1
in front? i feel when i play psyker that it's better to cover backline, also with vet when i play with a buble psyker i feel much more confortable when he is covering the backline, that why i was wondering if this was a thing or just something i notice
Why would you want the highest damage character to be looking where the enemies arenβt π€
yea, horde never attack back
inferno psyker should be in the front of the group unless there is a wall of crushers about to smack ya
This is why so many Inferno psykers do so little damage. They're not aggressive.
The good inferno players are the ones in the front, burning down hordes, dealing with threats
And using Shriek instead of bubble
i feel like the overall gameplay as you reach endgame is just playing alone and do tons of damage, seems like that buble gameplay is not that good on high havoc
Even more so with crusher trains!
Bubble is great, but inferno just doesn't need it
While you're burning shit, you're immune to bullets
And shriek kills gunners
Prefer bubble with voidblast
More natural combo imo
Bubble is okay.
It's a solid defensive tool
But it runs out very quickly under heavy fire and isn't gonna save you from bosses (other than burgle) or maulers/crushers
It's never bad to have, but it's not going to kill threats
And killing threats is more important than temporarily mitigating them
Purpose of it is to let you control the space better to kill the threats
But inferno tends to not really be able to take as much advantage of it as Voidblast imo
Although my Voidblast runs EP so the brain burst is a lot better too
I haven't used bubble in months
I only take it with voidblast really
Voidblast kinda doesn't care how long it takes to kill stuff so you don't need warp siphon so EP makes sense, and bubble enables EP KR brain rupture bullshit really well
I also have never actually used EP outside of penances
Plus the staff attacks itself
Imo it is only ever worth it for rupture
The other versions either suck (Smite), or are just a worse disrupt destiny (Assail)
Bubble allows a good team to push forward very hard very safely. But most random teams don't take advantage of it. So you end up tossing three bubbles down in the same place hoping your team will move forward
It takes a ton of power away from the Psyker and makes you more reliant on your team
This Voidblast build is as close as Psyker gets to a tank tbh
Like, my rending trauma + Shriek build did something like 800k soulblaze damage from just shriek and perilous combustion in a 2m damage game
The EP makes you more independent too
Bubble is just so team reliant. It feels bad.
SG works well with LMB EK and blazing trauma
Iffy on Inferno. Okay on Voidstrike
I get annoyed when teammates complain about not having bubble. But it doesn't happen often in H40.
Tbh I mostly pick Warp Siphon for CDR on Shriek
Someone on reddit was arguing today that shroudfield zealot is useless in high havoc and you should always take chorus
They then said they don't play high havoc 2 comments later.
the perfect redditor
I was dumb and tried to argue
did gaze get a buff?
Lule
it seems a lot quicker to come back
Rule no.1; don't try to play chess with pigeons, they'll knock the peices over and shit all over the board anyway 
A while ago. Is not new.
Psykineticβs Aura cools down SG while it is active
i havent played in a while mr six
so that's what it is
I wanted to stop the spread of misinformation
But
It's reddit. Like turning a desk fan against a hurricane
soon as i finish my scriers since i got warp unbound
its just back up
also whats stronger
spamming void strike or void blast secondary with gaze?
i liked the strike cuz it felt like lobbing grenades
Voidblast is stronger
Voidstrike takes longer to charge, has limited cleave, and the projectile stops on carapace
Voidblast has infinite cleave, better blessings, faster charge time, better stagger
With this in mind, Voidstrike is my favorite staff and I use it whenever I play Auric.
Voidstrike sound effects are the best
i just noticed too
i dont have the talent for more damage depending on peril
also
h u h
the electrokinectic
has more points than blessings?
Voidstrike is fun, but Voidblast is practical
are there any mods that make block with force swords less blinding? Any that do the same for the flame staff so I can see stuff?
CleanForceBlocking
i got pocketed by a zealot & vet, had gold toughness half the game lol
deimos/purgatus, scrier's & disrupt destiny w/ warp speed & mettle taken for the extra silly zoomies on top of dd's speed boost just zooming around killing crushers in one or two hits
psyker can get very, very tanky if you take the nodes for it
I just had a pretty great H40 clutch as meleeker
only for the game to move the respawn as I approached
=|
I still managed to get to it, but it was in a bad position and we all died
ah this was a 32
Heard someone say heinous rituals got fixed
Still had a couple goobers spawn in the ceiling on the stim lab map, & that elevator at the start of the outer hive map still has a heinous ritual start past that fence so the only way to stop it in time is to shoot it
Also had twins spawn with a mixed horde & a monstrosity which was extra nice there lol
You can do something to not get that ritual
Facing the button stay in the back right corner (all 4 players)
And it won't trigger when the elevator goes up
when they spawn past a door but are close enough to trigger so you have to do the entire sequence
I am reminded why I duo'd the event. Pubs casually facetanking 9 boomers with until death.
I forgot to swap back to burny stick before quitting, GDI.
I currently have a Inferno Staff wth 77% max on everything, should I constantly upgrade it or try to get a new one? Warp Resistance is 76% but doubt i'd make a diff
roll for a new one before empowering
otherwise its a big waste
money is the easiest thing to get so rerolling is practically free
lets you direct buy lowest evolve weapons
what should I look out for?
usually around 300 if you're max level
warp resistance is the usual dump stat
now I have all 80% except Warp Resis and Radius at 75%
fo everything 80 and warp res 60
ahh
so eeerm that good?
I'll gamble again
this literally just happened lol
How do I sell my unwanted weapons?
nvm found it out
yeah favorite weapons you don't want sold, because you can auto-select everything by rarity on the right side of the selling screen
ahh fuck I spent all my money trying to get perfect 80s
didn't knew it was not possible
it also works if you're just clicking things manually, they can't be selected
yeah you prob didn't need to go all out that early in the game
since you can also get good ones from just mission rewards
rolling and upgrading from scratch may be the easiest, but it's very costly in the beginning
100k gone man
Shame. It really hard to roll the right stats.
I did roll one with the dump stat but I wanted all 80s xd
Oh shit
sad
Thats really unfortunate
When do we get to put 100 in a stat at the cost of a 40 dump stat
is assail as your main horde clear viable?
Yes
for best results pick both assail subnodes, +cleave on peril talent, scrier's gaze + warp unbound
Literally the newbie build.
that was what i was thinking
and the keystone that restores assail shards
empowered psionics
thats it
Absolute bonkers
yes although I prefer disrupt destiny instead for versatility's sake
so I have extra oomph to take out the things assail can't
this ps5 zealot did 366k damage out of like 5.4m total but didn't get downed, pretty pro
good point
Did the only thing that matters

Deadass saved a trapped guy, i get pounced and the guy just ignores me and leaves me to die as a tox bomb is on me
everyone will tell you to just play on a higher difficulty and ignore the fact that most people don't just suck at this game but make no attempt to be at least alright at it
frankly the lack of situational awareness I observe in darktide players is astonishing
Is it harder to play on console?
definitely
Think tank camera.
it absolutely is harder
Also no mods
I just use controller on PC, but also don't mod so I guess is console ish.
I literally Alt 1.
Only binding are the two back buttons being sprint and special.
Always was
My condolences to any console boi out there/controler user
π₯ π₯ π₯
i play with someone who is on console and has bad internet on top of it
he's a fuckin champ
most patient person i've seen in a while
Or dead inside; both can behave the same

true, but he doesnt seem to be tired of everything
he plays souls games tho lol
@tribal gust is a beast
The only time you are topping charts is if you have 3 bots or players who are like the bots.
Look, with the ppl we play with. Chaos, Syllo will likely straight up top it.
