Psykers ruin any fun and suck to play with

[Dreadnaught]

Fight me. Seriously though, psykers always seem completely busted to comical levels of op. It completely ruins any challenge or any fun when getting grouped with one, let alone multiple.

Unfortunately this is the first time I actually agree with it. There are quite a few clearly overpowered things in the game at the moment such as Ogryn bleed and Zealot knife bleed, Shredder Autopistol is still pretty broken too (really flying under the radar atm due to other things) but they're not just outright trivializing the game.

Psyker on the other hand really is. A Voidstrike Assail Psyker can just solo the entire game with how extremely busted their arsenal is. Psyker has better horde clear than Zealot, AT RANGE, while being able to 1 hit any specialist or elite on top of it. At no ammo cost. The worst part is nothing substantial is getting nerfed either, so Psyker is just going to continue to dominate games.

on what difficulty

Anything below Damnation and Auric Damnation. Fortunately a lot of them explode or go squish when Assail's not cutting it anymore, so there's some challenge left.

I play exclusively on Auric Damnation and I still think the Psykers are very overpowered at the moment. The infinite smite was easily the most broken build they had, but it's getting addressed. Assail remains much too strong in my opinion. It shouldn't recharge as fast as it does.

One thing this update achieved is to put the Veteran, FINALLY, in line: they now kind of suck in melee and will get overwhelmed if left unattended. But in the same update they make Psyker way too good at everything.

The psyker is the only reason why I play the game. If you want a challenge, play on higher difficulties, stop destroying the fun of other people.

Why does the psyker class have to be nerfed? Go play on a higher difficulty instead.

You play on lowest difficulty and calls everything overpowered. So tired of you people ruining multiplayer games.

People playing Psyker the way you are, are actually ruining the game for a lot more people, so kindly shove it.

Psyker / Zealot are good. Ogryn is top dog this time around so I really don't get all the psyker nerf posts everywhere. Vet is in the back. Still ok, but just kind of boring.

...i'm playing on auric damnation and psykers just seem to one shot the screen endlessly. If they don't do that, they're stunlocking the entire area endlessly. There's literally no challenge.

One thing the devs could do though is to remove the stunlock effect, make the lightning have a damage focused effect, make the psyker more of a glass cannon. Easy to kill, easy to die.

Yeah this has always been a problem with Vermintide and certain classes not letting other's actually play the game but back then you where limited to just one of each... now everyone can invalidate everyone else's fun.

Awesome!

With what? I'm going though my psyker's weekly challenges now and just finished an auric damnation level. It was still a struggle for the whole team.

I haven't played them since last year, but they look so easy that it can't possibly be fun. Same two builds: Either purple lightning forever, or one tapping everything with I'm guessing the head pop and spreading blue flame. It's seriously not fun to have on the team.

Psyker is in a weird spot where the class is (one of) the best but a significant part of the community still has the opinion from release that it's somehow awkward or bad.

Bruh psykers are even much more powerful in actual lore.. this is nuthin.

That depends on the person though. There are psykers with very limited abilities (as in, not even sure they have them), and very, very rare cases with earth-shattering potent powers. I think Darktide's psykers are somewhere in the middle or lower.
