Konny's PoV of the round: ‪@Chaziart‬ • Darktide 4 Psykers | D...
Ok, this is my group's new Craziest Round Ever. To put it simply we very stubbornly wanted to do a full Psyker-only Auric Maelstrom Clear and this was our 3rd attempt at it before it disappeared from the Map Pool. We covered all of our bases with different Blitzes and Staffs and hoped for the best.
Our line of thinking here was: Voidstrike Staffs for general shooter mass and stunlocking non-Nurgle Blessed Monsrosities, Lightning from Smite and the Surge Staff for general control, and a Purgatus Staff for general horde safety. It worked out pretty well but as you can see throughout the run the only weak point of our 4 Psyker comp was our inability to really hard burst Nurgle-Blessed Monstrosities at times.
Again, not really worth Time Stamping this since the entire round is pure distilled absurdity.
If you're wondering how I have a Reflex Sight on my guns or skins on weapons you haven't seen before it's from the Extended Weapon Customization mod that's currently still a Work in Progress on the Darktide Modder's discord. (Look for its thread under the Creation Showcase channel)

thats some sweaty spyker gameplay

[@Vamp0613]

We all definitely hit the shower after this one, both in and out of game.

Fantastic run!

[@t_rex8767]

idk about others but i love the shards but it might be quite frustrating for other classes/teammates i guess :S

What good is sprint efficiency over stam regen?

[@Vamp0613]

Unless they changed it in this patch and I didn’t catch it, Psyker as a class has a faster regen tick delay until they start regaining stamina compared to the others so they don’t get as much value from stamina regen compared to other classes. Keep in mind that stamina regen on curios as far as I understand it only helps how much you regain PER TICK and does not speed up the delay for the initial stamina regeneration. With these two factors in context, I don’t really feel the need for it on Psyker especially when using a dueling sword with only 2 max stamina which I can make the most of with sprint efficiency.

I dont know how you would do this without psykers. Not enough ammo

[@Vamp0613]

It's totally possible, if not potentially easier with the right build/weapons on other classes. 1. The Surge Staff/Smite Psyker can be replaced with a Thunder Hammer Zealot with Holy Relic for both CC and Monster Bursting. 2. Either Voidstrike Psyker can be replaced with a Veteran with a Crit forcused build of either Hellbore or Recon Lasguns that don't consume ammo on critical hit while also giving party wide 1% ammo back in Coherency on Elite/Special kills. That alone almost guarantees infinite ammo for Ogryns and Zealots that understand that they should be melee focused primarily and trust a Vet to blast with their own guns. 3. The Purgatus Staff Psyker can be replaced by either a more damage focused zealot or any type of Ogryn to at least maintain a frontline for the team. I've cleared this exact set of modifiers in a previous video with a 1 of each comp.
