In regards to Bulwarks getting staggered from being friendly fired. Its probably one of the worst things in the game, that small staggers can overwrite big staggers. Like if a Bulwark, or more commonly, a rager is completely prone, and you hit him, and he 1-frame rises to his feet.

I made a loadout like this, and all I have to say is thank you. It's honestly bananas how much damage output and toughness regen you have

Man, this build is great. Loved the video hope you make more!

Great videos. Good job mate. One thing that is bothering me its that all meta Zealot/Psyker/Vet builds, seems to revolve around: use Columnus V, use high finesse melee weapon, crit evertime, turn yourself into human meat grinder. After that all 3 classes play quite similar. Sorry for my bad English - not a native speaker.

I think this is an issue with the present meta, unfortunately. Build videos tend to prioritize efficiency, and this is just the meta at the moment. I imagine things will change in time, but no time soon from what I can tell. I wish I saw more of my favorite weapons in these videos, but it seems the Columnus V is just best in slot until they change certain abilities.

He made a video on why the Columnus is so overpowered. It just does insane damage, has insane accuracy, good-ish mobility. Then the dueling sword is great at getting weak spot hits which proc a LOT of nodes. It's just overtuned, not any of the community's fault.

It's mostly due to how consistent DPS (Damage Per Second) is the meta, every little bit of damage adds up. Another funny thing I noticed in Warhammer 40,000 games (Dawn Of War for example) had what I call "troll weapons" (where like a Sniper Rifle showed on stats zero damage yet it penetrated and instafragged targets exploding them and caused collateral damage, and the autocannon that called in an airstrike lol) so in WH40K video games they seemed to find a way to make more mundane weapons become insane with the right stats, skills or traits.

I DO like Columnus and I DO like gun psyker, but they need to do something about other weapons if the Columnus winds up being one of the most used weapons in 3 out of 4 classes. And the 4th one doesn't use it because they can't. The dodge + slide trick to get into range is rather neat!

New to your channel, for sure enjoying your vids!

Mr. Lindberg, what perks would be ideal on the dueling sword? I got 2 free rolls to work with

Love your content, personally I prefer the format with Gameplay first then build so that you get an idea of what the core gameplay loop is, with a simple timestamp for the build for those that just wanna go for that. Overall I think the structure of your videos have been really good and well thought out, but the commentary is the most important part from you. Knowing the why one makes the decisions from the perspective of play is important. Notably, when you talk about "And because we're playing psyker it's nice to have X focus to hit the breakpoint so we can take 2 hits" that has been very valuable information I haven't gotten from other build guides. Furthermore explaining, again, from play perspective why something is or isn't good, as opposed to "This good because 100% uptime" Whereas in your psyker video you talk about how "Over the course of a match you're getting X amount of additional casts of an ability". All in all I think that aspect of the commentary is what is most vital and makes your build videos more useful than others, then the gamer rage makes them more entertaining than others. Again, format, I think the formula that you did in this one was very good, and if it lowers editing time, then it's significantly better to do it this way, because the people that complain about having to go to a timestamp for the build were gonna find something to complain about regardless.

Love your vids man, I hope you make more darktide builds

So I found this 5 months later, but thank you for the indepth info.

What primary curio traits would you recommend?

how do you feel about deimos force sword? you can get riposte for the crit and the deflector for blocking ranged. I tried using this psyker build and I just suck at it cause i don't have an answer to range other than try to outshoot them. I went down one time and my allies left me calling me a noob bullet psyker lol. I think I'm just bad.

On my maccabian Mk 4 i have shred 4 and uncanny strike 4 which i use specifically on maulers and crushers. It also has a special attack tech where right after a power attack, you tap special attack and hit twice, increasing damage stack from the blessings, essentially letting you get in 2 hits in the span of one. Is it just better to have the precog and rampage blessing? I feel like you have a better grasp of this, let me know if you can test. Dont know if the rending from uncanny strike is worth it

I should clarify the special attack does very low damage, but the benefit of using it right after power attack is the additional stacks from the bonus crit chance from shred and rending from uncanny strike. I wonder if scryers gaze makes the crit chance from shred redundant

Okay, Bro no lie I was fishing for a payout build I liked and trying all kinds of different builds and nothing was clicking and then I tried THIS build. It’s an absolute MONSTER! You definitely gotta know what you doing or you’ll get clapped but you can melt everything in this game with this. I’m a newer player and I had no problem running with this build. It gives tons of toughness, speed and damage when it’s fully built. 10/10 pew pew

Good vid. Like I mentioned in another build, you make good vids because you don't just tell, you SHOW and tell. Also, may I request any zealot build? I noticed I had no idea how to build zealot (from a meta perspective) and I'm kinda lost on what to skip and take, despite your video.

Haha the giga hate on smite cracked me up. Would love to see more highlights or raw gameplay in-mission similar to the start of this video aswell

I was just thinking while blasting with Columnus on Vet if Scryer psyker can leverage the gun to good effect too. And here it is :)

Which staff do you think is best from a meta perspective? I’m quite partial to the trauma staff myself, but I have no idea how they actually stack up to each other in the meta.

It isn't an immediate pick in Vermintide, only can pick cooldown if your weapon doesn't have Swift Slaying, like if using Opportunist on a Shield on Ironbreaker. Problem is perks in Verm have higher values than in Darktide, and you can only pick 2 on each equipment slot, and each slot does not share the same perks. On Trinket, 30% Stamina Regen is a must pick on everyone besides Handmaiden imo. 5% Crit Chance is also a very good for helping trigger Swift Slaying. 10% cooldown of not using Swift Slaying. I use Revive Speed on Handmaiden and Shield using Foot Knight. Only one of my characters use Cooldown Reduction and that's Shield using Ironbreaker. I used to use it on Bounty Hunter but I might change because of the recent "fix" nerf. Because of how Ult generation works in Verm where it's a timer where you can decrease it by hitting enemies (different values for each character), Cooldown isn't always needed, Swift Slaying means more attack Speed, more attack Speed means hitting enemies faster, hitting enemies faster means more Ult Regen.

a lovely build ive been using for a while. nice breakdown. i knew it was silly but this helped me understand why and how sily. cheers. EDIT Oh boy. I went back to it after this vid, built exactly like yours and found two interesting things. First is the reload speed sucks arse. The biggest difference i could make was putting a perk on that increase reload speed so my "up" time is longer. The second thign was the amount of damage you do in the psykanium is noticebly higher over time than in Damnation games. In some instances shots on target on weak spots were simply whiffing and doing no damage. If i timed it the difference would seem small but when theres 6-12 crushers coming it makes a huge difference! But yeah great build i'd recommend with faster reload cos stock reload is too slow for me.

"Weakspot damage" and "Critical damage" boosts don't work the way I think you think they do. So say a base hit is 100, and a weakspot hit is 200, then 10% weakspot damage increases the total to 210, ie 10% of the difference between base and weakspot, not 10% of total damage when hitting weakspot.

If i recall correctly, damage, weakspot damage, and critical damage are addictive effects and not multiplication effects. The damage formula is something like this, scaled by hit location and armor type.
