@@RealAsianRobot an idea occurred to me to make the melee attack on the staffs useful btw A short range force push that has a range about as long as the staff itself from the player. Does no damage and builds no peril, and the shove is in fact fairly weak. Basically I'm thinking it can only push poxbursters and hounds. This will give the staffs just a hint of utility to increase the survivability of Psykers in the face of such threats Edit: also maybe there could be a charged swing with a stronger pulse that has a wider and further push angle and does very mild damage and peril buildup

Psyker main here, some observations: - Trauma staff is great for holding hallways and blowing Ragers to bits, it got a bit of an improvement recently, but its still meh. - Surge staff is _not_ for CC anymore, it is hard damage only now. If you have the desire to use lightning for CC, the only real way to do it now is with Smite. Smite, along with the power evolution that lets you stack six warp charges, can last long enough to let you kill Crushers on damnation and even Auric. The CC effect from it is so much better that it can lock down any corridor you're holding out in. Otherwise I essentially agree. - Purgatis staff is my main staff, and I'm the most experienced with it with any weapon. Pro tip: Do NOT use the left click to try to get flame procs to kill an enemy, it is massively slower. The right click fires and processes stacks of fire at the _server tick rate,_ so in one second spamming with the left click, you might get three stacks if you're lucky, whereas with the right click you will get between sixty to ninety chances to get a flame stack depending on charge time. It is also more beneficial to farm warp charges, fully exhaust a full charge, then immediately switch to Smite so now not only is everything burning, but you're hard CC'ing with the hard CC ability too. - Voidstrike is the only real Psyker DPS weapon. Surge and Purgatis are crowd affecting, but this is the crowd _kill_ staff. If you have a friend that likes running Purgatis, and you're a psyker that wants to be shooting things, this is the one for you because the charged ball has infinite cleave, it will go through the entire crowd, and if you full charge it, it will hit as hard as a bolter, and the explosion radius is nearly 3x that of the bolter. _NEVER_ spam leftclick with it, it will build peril way faster than you expect, and you do almost no damage. Let your allies control the crowd, and just start calmly blowing through them.

thank you for this additional insight, although I will correct that Purgatus is the crowd kill staff, not the Voidstrike but Voidstrike is solid at it too. Void sacrifices aoe for additional damage, making it more of a single target/crowd clear hybrid, vs Purgatus which is all out crowd clear also Trauma is still massively underrated. it's at minimum on par with all the other staffs if you use it to its strengths

The "follow up" is because sometimes you are built to ALMOST 1-shot and that follow up essentially covers the gap and polishes off the sliver. Once you know what can save another charge, THAT is when you start adding in. Kinda like how sometimes your heavy hit won't get the kill but you know what enemy just needs a quick attack combo.

The.reason for the voidstrike weird strat of secondary + primary insta combo is for a limited purpose, but it's for single target scenarios when you know you haven't enough time to charge a powerful secondary, but want to finish off an elite quick, and with quell on weakspot + high warp resist, you can get away with spamming it for elite crews. Practicing this is good because when enemies stagger or get blown back by the secondary, you have a split second to predict the general trajectory of where the enemy's head or body will be (think like an easier version of airshotting with rockets in tf2) and finish them off reliably. Even better if you can also practice reliable headshots with primary bolt in all situations with the staff perk and warp resist, then you will be keeping your peril manageable for much longer, which means uninterrupted damage output and cc. Dodge sliding + a well timed duck means you will also be harder to hit while casting with staff. This takes a specific staff Stat and perk and a good deal of practice, but it is useful when you are occasionally bombarded with elites--just my 2 cents
@RealAsianRobot
10 ай бұрын
That's a fair opinion, I just have never once seem a need for it in even the toughest situations as usually it would be better to launch 2 fully charged shots through an elite horde and finish off any straggler with a 3rd charged shot that you know will kill them. Probably just a difference in playstyle really. I'm the type that thinks of the Voidstrike as pure artillery

The Surge offers faster and better targeting as well as damage (and a faster cast time). In the highest intensity missions, speed is everything unfortunately. So yeaaaah, I'm not into the Trauma staff right now. If you like it though, go for it. I just find the area and charge up too small to be of real value and the skill required to target it properly is not easy to apply in the field. Risk and reward don't add up in my opinion

I have thoroughly tested it in Auric Damnation and even with a full charge (and brittleness blessing), my team would be saved had I used a Surge or Voidstrike staff. With the Trauma staff, my team gets wiped much more quickly because it has a longer kill time. In a pre-made team these factors are heavily diluted of course, but I must tell you that its damage is LOWER than all other staffs even with a full charge and its charge time is longer compared to a Surge Staff. At anything below Auric level, then it's absolutely fine to use it and it will be comparable to other staffs in the game (however all of my commentary must be made with the highest difficulty in mind so it is applicable to the full game).

Trauma is good, but is much slower for the fastest levels of gameplay. It was mostly used for the value of Rending Shockwave in the past but now it's in kind of a weird spot again. It does have some nice CC but it's annoying for vets to miss headshots because you knocked everything down. For this reason Surge/Smite is a superior combo from both a teamplay and carrying perspective. That said, you can get great value out of a trauma staff for sure, it's just lacking in some areas. If it's AoE was 50% larger while charge time remained the same, it would probably be the best staff in the game. That's the only thing holding it back right now.

@soloshottie yeah but at the time of the video. It was not a great choice. It was only ever used as a debuffer and though it enjoyed some moderate success, it has gone back in the current patch to being overshadowed by the other staffs. Even now, nobody really uses it much. Again, I am speaking strictly from an Auric Maelstrom/Damnation ONLY perspective. Trauma offers much lower value than the Surge because the Surge kills very quickly even while flicking your aim around as it has an autoaim feature added in. The Trauma requires that you aim, this difference in milliseconds adds up over time in addition to what is already a HUGE negative for the Veteran trying to hit their headshots. Hence why, although I can see your perspective, I would never encourage anyone to use the Trauma staff over any of the other staffs in the game currently as they are each more specialized for their builds of choice. However, if you find that it is what gives you the best success rate in Auric Maelstrom/Damnation, then keep using it and enjoying it in your own way.

Interesting point you've made with the smite special ability that lets it chain to a +1. I wonder, if you don't take the +1 does it still do the same damage but to less mobs meaning you kill them quicker? I'll be testing that tonight
@RealAsianRobot
11 ай бұрын
Let me know your results, the +1 is more for the Smite ability itself. It's practically useless on the Surge (imo), I do the same with or without it frankly.

I'm currently leveling a psyker using the purgatus staff and brain rupture with venting shriek and creeping flames in order to maximize the amount of soulblaze, I'm only at level 20 so far so I haven't yet got in fire reborn, but that perk sounds absolutely amazing for a pyro build. I have heard a lot of other players trying to work smite or assail into this general build path in order to get access to warp charges with a more AOE focused blitz ability, is the purgatus staff a good choice to use for hordes so you can use brain rupture to focus down high value targets at range? (If people just tagged them instead of hosing them down with ammo the second they spot them I mean...)
@RealAsianRobot

Well nobody really uses it at the highest levels of gameplay because everyone has huge amounts of horde clear these days haha. Feel free to keep going with it if you like it, try out the Purgatus build on my channel if you want something for level 30

@yeffaros8419 Because to be fair in the old iteration of the game, it's armor penetration was dogshit and it was ineffective at Auric level (except for a few psychos who swore by it). The Purg and Surge reigned Supreme. In this new iteration the Voidstrike trades up speed for Raw Power and has become a plasma gun that is limitless basically lol. Auric runs with the current enemy stats would be hell without these awesome staves and mechanic changes. As it is I cannot carry randos to a win, they have to actually work for it and play semi skillfully. So it remains challenging. If you play Ina group of friends, then it will definitely be overpowered because team coordination is 50% of the success rate 🤣

@RealAsianRobot fair enough mate, and yeah it makes sense they use the item appearance to distinguish them apart, it's practical as heck -finding them in your inventory, other players working out what powers you are bringing at a glance and all that. I miss transmog though. Hopefully they will bring out alternate skins that will be cooler, style and cool factor are bigger for me that you I think. Probably why I'm not a top tier player in other games XD
@RealAsianRobot
10 ай бұрын
@last2nkow fair enough, and transmogs are a thing but most weapon skins are paid for and they're not worth it compared to character skins honestly lol. That said, yeah, it's function over style for me. I only care about having a sick skin for my character (cause no armor in the game anyway) and after that, I focus purely on weapon stats and functionality. If everything is dead, I am happy

You can follow the builds I have made on my channel to see what is best used. I also demonstrate the effectiveness of such blessings on stream, but other than very CORE blessings for some builds, most of the time you do have a good bit of freedom. Warp Flurry is a must have more or less though, faster charge is beautiful on all staffs!

Voidstrike. If you go Purg you are most likely gimping your team by removing ranged capabilities. It also depends on the difficulty you play. If you play anything below Damnation, you can do whatever you like with no consequences so just play what you feel is the most fun for you. For Damnation and Auric runs, you are strictly relegated to fully optimized loadouts. So never use Smite with anything other than the Surge/Voidstike. That said, you can also refer to my smite build dropping later tonight
