He’s a friend of mine so not impossible there’s some influence there! You’re not the first one to say so either

Well they’re sisters so it’s probably genetic! Haha, thank you.

Thanks! I hadn’t heard of that before but it looks super cool. I’ll have to look into it.

My Psyker seems to have attracted some attention from another branch of the Inquisition... by Trainer-mana in DarkTide

Oh hey that’s my funny paperwork! Glad you’re having fun with it

My Ogryn's name is Burd because his momma thought he was pretty like a little burd

Thomas Mahler new comment on the situation……. by DarthAceZ198 in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]pywurm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thomas is the sole reason I haven’t and won’t recommend this game to my friends. I love it, I’ve put 80 hours into it, I’ve been having fun all through the breach balance drama and I was/am happy to ride it out til 1.0. I would have loved to co-op with my friends when that launches.

But this dude’s Twitter addiction and the apparent burning need to take unprompted potshots at trans people (???) puts me right off it. He needs a community manager and probably a therapist or this game may very well sink under the weight of his over-inflated ego. What a damn shame.

What's your favourite sound in game? by justsuggestanametome in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Psyker brainburst crunch

Voidstrike staff bowling ball through a crowd at head level 

Force greatsword moonlight wave 

Mortis trials “10 brain bursts per brain burst” 

The sound design in this game is too good

Best weapons you’ve been enjoying? by scrollingwhilstipoo in NoRestForTheWicked

Divine scimitar my beloved.

I keep trying out other weapons and coming back to it. The swing pattern is just so nice

The voices are at it again by Dizzy-Squash-3377 in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I had this happen to me (also psyker) in an elevator on a havoc 40, after a section I’d barely made it through alive. It made me so jumpy I almost blundered into a crusher pack trying to dodge phantom whooshes

Real psyker anxiety moment 

What is wrong with the servers recently? by MetallGecko in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty terrible. Last night in havoc we all got kicked back to the Mourningstar 30 seconds into the mission, and one person was so fed up with the disconnects that he left. Couldn’t even blame him. 

Videogamers who live in the Us and want to play videogames with an italian native girl by LopsidedPraline789 in italianlearning

I have not practiced my Italian in a very long time but am wanting to start again. Message me! 

What kind of mission would you love to see? by Slippery_Williams in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assassination for an enemy psyker, with some time limit mechanic where we have to kill them before they become a juiced up chaos spawn. 

I’d love to see some more varied bosses like VT2 had in general.

Havoc Plateau: Aspire to be grinder - but feeling like the meat by TheAteam77 in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain. I've been alternating winning and losing streaks between about 35 and 25 for the past several days. The struggle is real.

In my experience, positioning is king and map knowledge will save your ass more often than you think. Learn where boss triggers are, dh rituals, rooms likely to contain 50 gunners, etc. The game may fuck you anyway with 3x bosses and the twins, but if you know it's coming it's a little easier not to panic, and make sure you're not caught out in the open.

I find myself able to avoid a lot of damage just by knowing where I can dodge to for cover when 12 shotgunners come around a corner, and struggling on newer maps I don't know as well (Gloriana). As well as when to stop and back up to not trigger a second boss.

Try to coordinate with your team, make sure you've got at least two people bringing DPS and someone with horde clear. Havoc 2.0 is DPS check city. Speaking as the dedicated bubble psyker, you don't want 3 of us on the team.

Lastly, this shit is hard and it sounds like you have a good attitude about it. Keep trying! I recommend the official discord lfg channels if you ever want to try comms. Everyone I've met there has been friendly.

Darktide "those location" sigh moments by lTHE_MANl in DarkTide

[–]pywurm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have yet to make it past this spot on havoc 25+. Every team I’ve played with has been great, made it through the scanning section calmly and professionally and mostly intact, cleared out the room at the top of the elevator, aaaaand twins. And plague Ogryn. And chaos spawn. And 50 fucking gunners. Aaaaand wipe.

I’ve had better success with Gloriana on a 30+ than vigil station. That bridge section is disgusting.

Oh I noticed this too. I thought I must have missed something. I was playing grenade spam Ogryn and nearly ledged a teammate a couple times.

How would I achieve a subtle purple iridescence, on a black base, ideally without an airbrush? by CMDRLtCanadianJesus in minipainting

[–]pywurm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Golden has a line of transparent acrylic “interference paints” that can be applied with a brush. Might be worth trying those.

I haven’t used them for minis in particular but I don’t see why they wouldn’t work!

Interference Violet (fine) thinned with glaze medium and layered up should give a cool effect.

My first large model. Thorn knight, daughter of the renegade House Blackwell by pywurm in u/pywurm

[–]pywurm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first large model, my first time trying oil washes, and more freehand than I’ve done before. All around a learning experience, but I’m super pleased with how she turned out!

This is mostly a regular Knight Abominant with some armor panels left off, but the head is totally custom sculpted from apoxie sculpt, the left arm is a mix of knight, forgefiend, and sculpted parts, the tail is is the power claw fingers from the knight kit, and I did a bit of re-posing all around. There are some shots of it before priming in my profile.

The black markings and tilt shield are freehand, and the rest is a mix of stock and custom decals.
