Ghost Helm and burst attacks

[JustSmile]

Should a psyker wearing the Ghost Helm dodge multiple shots in a burst attack, is the burst treated as a one attack and only gives +1 no matter how many dodges happen in it? Or is each dodge counted separately?

Asking 'cause putting Idira in front of Argenta's Heavy Bolter starts to sound very, very tempting.

Use controlled shot with any soldier against an ally with ghost helm and they gain 1 PR for each shot in the burst. It isn't hard to get up to 60 round salvos on argenta with the right build.

It only lasts until the psyker ends their turn

End of their regular turn? Or the end of the first extra turn they get?

[JustSmile]

Got the rep and tested it out, end of regular turn. Idira was buffing with 57 PR after two Argenta bursts.

[JustSmile]

And to add further testing, sadly the helmet caps out at +99PR. C'mon, Owlcat, I wanna crack a planet in half.

"... lord captain?"
"Just trust me on this one."

In act 4 you buy it. From the monks, iirc.

It's either from Explorators or from Fellowship of the Void at maxed out rep, don't remember which. For sure not Drussians since I don't even have them near the cap yet.

just use corpus conversion. I stacked over 125 PR turn 1 whilst also using psyker's breatplate on Heinrix to test how high I could edit the final boss' hp and still kill it. Around 5 million hp I worked out an infinite AP boost loop and got bored

Corpus conversion is pure RNG. Sometimes it bugs out and gives +2 PR for every power cast, usually all it does is work as written.

Corpus conversion is a talent, right? While we're talking about a piece of gear....
why not both?

You very much can stack corpus, ghost helm, psyker's breastplate and even warp conductor gloves if you like.

It isnt necessary at all as stacking PR is mostly for buffs. The biggest damage in the game come from stacking dots on executioner which is mostly rocksaws and temperus elite carapace backpack as it increases the RoF of rocksaws lol

[JustSmile]

Giving your chosen mass murderer +450 strength/toughness, 250 agility, 300 dodge/parry, 50 resolve, 240 MP, and 120 AP is pretty funny but also hilariously superfluous. You really don't need to scale that much, unless you want to see how much damage can a single Psychic Shriek deal.

Who cares if it's necessary? This isn't a competitive esports game. Let's find out how much damage a single Psychic Shriek can do.

Better yet, find out how much damage a single Pain Channeling can do using the overkill damage of a Psychic Shriek.
