I can scarcely speak for grief

Total Jimmy Griefing!

can you help Weiss with the ritual if your RT is a telepath psyker

>>713916791 (OP)
Can you enable the new DLC in the middle of a playthrough? I still haven't finished my first one

>they changed the fem arbites portrait and made her uglier
for literally what fucking purpose

>>713916791 (OP)
I heard the DLC is overtuned and the game becomes shit with that stuff, never played but game looks somewhat interesting.
How true is this?

>>713917408
Yes
But it depends on which act you are, I am not sure if you can start the questline after act 2

>>713917616
If you are on your first run I wouldn't worry about it, people here have been playing since the alpha so they have solved the game a long time ago, you will not find it easy on the harder difficulties if you are a first timer

>>713917824
what about after the first time?

>>713918205
That depends on how good you are at crpgs
I am on my second playtrough, now playing on hard, and I can beat it but I still sometimes have to reload a fight
Not often though

>>713917507
They didn't. Go outside and touch grass

is it safe to leave this shit lying around

>>713918205
nta but just avoid anything that always gives you the first turn and picking pyromancer. the actual fun is trying to create fun builds on hard difficulty

>>713917616
Playing through it now, I don't really know what you mean by overtuneed. New class feels great, new encounters (the ones I've seen) are great

>>713918437
The questions core here was how balanced the DLC is. I heard it trivializes the game and is stronger, is that true or not? That's what I care about, supposedly there is new content in the future so I dont want to play a game where new content is just powercreep.

>>713918456
Nice try shill, but they definitely did. She looks like she aged ten years.

>>713918456
They literally did retard, go back

>>713918520
So pyromancer is overtuned is what you are saying. ty.

>a random 2d woman looks 10 years older, according to a man who has never seen or touched a real woman
The Imperium has fallen. Billions must worship chaos

A quick series of reviews focusing on the new character of Lex Imperialis from anons here for those debating getting it or starting a new run for it:

>Solomorne is the only person in the entire crew who doesn't have counters, his entire alignment gets resolved in one dialogue, he doesn't have any conflict, and all his development happens off-screen. And I'm fucking serious, his boss sends him on a mission, and then he fucks off for like 3 warp jumps, then a message comes in saying he's fired, and you need to go and talk to him about the situation. He's a servitor on all levels including mental and it's not even funny.

>Solomorne joins you extremely (and unnecessarily) late in act 2. Dargonus
>He doesn't even have an original first class, he's just a soldier, and overseer, while good, isn't half as broken as executioner is (unless you use the raven, but he's no psyker)
>Since he joins late you can't properly build him because lol no level 0 respec
>Solomornes quest is bare bones garbage, almost Argenta tier in comparison

>Solomon’s personality is flat, boring even, and sorely lacks the nuance or inner conflict that made companions like Pasqal and Argenta stand out. His VA isn't that great either, he is just a generic white guy with a black paint job.
>His companion quest is equally underwhelming, offering few surprises and little in the way of emotional or thematic payoff. His reason to spy on you are simple "I was told to do so", again no personality. There is barely any reactivity from other companions on his quest and doesn't integrate very well with the main story. It was too short to or felt like that, since most of the time Solomon was gone doing who knows what and he just shows up later.

In addition the content in general is just mid and a huge downgrade from the Tyranid storyline in Void Shadows. It seems like VS was a much, much better DLC and those expecting that kind of quality from Lex should adjust their expectations.

>>713918761
I see you've at least stopped pretending it didn't happen

>>713918520
>Hard
lol
lmao
This game is a joke on Unfair even if you don't abuse the broken shit, just building your team half competently results in you alpha striking everything to death by mid act 2 at the latest. Only gets worse from there, too, as the itemization and lack of intelligent enemy scaling turns the combat into a trivial annoyance at best.

>>713916791 (OP)
>get hyped for it for years after announcment
>after finishing first stable version, you realise battles are easy, boring and repetetive

It's the classic
>it didn't happen!
>okay it did happen but it doesn't matter!
Next is
>it did happen and that's a good thing!

>>713918552
Out of the two DLCs, 3 classes are added
The bladedancer class is really strong, it doesn't completely trivialize the game, but it's definetly a new standard for melee builds
The other 2 dlc classes are ok, good but nothing special

The best class is still from vanilla, officer.

>>713918835
>>Solomon’s personality is flat, boring even, and sorely lacks the nuance or inner conflict that made companions like Pasqal and Argenta stand out
>and Argenta
hahahahahahaha
I'll make my own conclusions, I don't trust what /v/ says

>>713919081
the best class is master tactician though

>>713918835
>they add a black companion character
>he isn't allowed to have a personality
It keeps happening. Look at Wyll from BG3 he was the blandest guy in that game as well
I'm a little mad tho because this was our only chance to get a cool Judge Dredd clone for our party

This DLC is 100% not worth doing a full replay of the game for, it's nowhere near the quality and content of Void Shadows, which was honestly the high point of RT as a whole up to now. I definitely think it's better to wait for the future DLCs for a replay of the game, maybe they'll match up to Void Shadows level. Though Lex being this average makes me wonder if Void Shadows was just a lucky shot from Owlcat and the rest of the DLC will be more on the level of Lex rather than VS.

>>713918851
>according to a man who has never seen or touched a real woman
This here should have clued you in that you're being made fun of for being a hysterical ninny screeching at windmills. In the past the cure for hysterical femoids was dickings and asylum treatment. I think we should bring it back, but for incels instead

>>713919239
He has a personality. The personality is autism

>>713919313
You tell 'em xister!

>>713919239
Yeah it's like they refuse to give black guys an actual personality so they're always these bland, uninteresting dudes as a result. It's really fucking annoying.

>>713919313
>In the past the cure for hysterical femoids was dickings and asylum treatment. I think we should bring it back
I agree. We should give it to the bitter femcel at owlcat who changed the portrait.

>>713919287
I waited until now for a second playtrough so I play both DLCs at once
Patience has paid off, I win

>>713919287
Lex was probably forced by GW since Darktide just got a similar addition. Russians fucking hate black people and the Owlcat dudes probably had no interest in him. They just want to make waifus.

>>713919287
>Marazhai pic
Opinion safely disregarded

>>713919535
>since Darktide just got a similar addition
and they released new Arbites minis, definitely a marketing push

>>713919151
Argenta does have that inner conflict. Unfortunately it is handled terribly making her one of the more boring companions in the game. Basically she is wasted potential the character. That said she still has enough flavour on her own by virture of belonging to one of many 40k factions to not be a completely forgettable. Same goes for Solomorne imho

>>713919535
>Owlcat fucked up but it's not their fault, it's outside interference!
Do you guys ever get tired of using this line?

>BLACKS ARE BORING THEY'RE ALWAYS GENERIC GOODY TWO SHOES BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO OFFEND NIGS (Jacob, Wyll, Sosiel)
>They release a hardcore dogmatic fascist, the kind that goes to a BLM rio- I mean protests and shoots everyone there
>NOOOO HE'S BORING HE'S STILL BORING
I think you just hate nogs

>>713919538
Marazhai is the best written companion in RT outside of Pasqal. Also has the best voice acting in the game.

>>713919490
Owlkek artists are male

>>713919748
I won't deny it

>>713919535
>Russians fucking hate black people
No, we don't.

i cant do it again
i just cant play another 100h where most of it is fucking walk in the park combat because the game gets solved halfway
they need to stop making fucking dlcs and make new games instead
2 MORE DLCS ARE YOU KIDDING ME???

>>713916791 (OP)
Gonna try this game now, I've been holding off since I heard it was really buggy at release, should be pretty good now with DLC released I hope.

>>713919834
They have several female artists retard

>go out of ammo in just one burst
Bros how do I cope with such tiny magazine size

>>713919748
I haven't played it yet but if he's just a generic Arbites Dredd ripoff I'll be happy with him. The last thing I want from 40k is subversion. I like it to be predictable and cliche.

I wish I worked at owlcat just to know what exactly took them so long to release this DLC. Its content is good, but the amount of it does not justify almost an entire year of devtime. VS took the same amount of time, but has more content and was also worked on at the same time as the game's big bug-fixing patches

>>713919834
don't have to be an artist to replace the portrait anon

>>713920205
Yeah, the egregious stuff has been fixed a long time ago

>>713920312
From what I've seen on his endings you may or may not be able to corrupt him or turn him into an iconokek good guy, but by default yeah he's a dogmachad

I can never play anything else after psyker blaster this build is simply peak

>>713920296

>>713920312
He is. He's nothing like jacob or wyll. The quintessencial 'boring black man" character. He is everything you expect an arbites character to be. Anons are just seething because he doesn't have a vagina (as if him having one would make them any less miserable)

>>713920464
picking anything other than sanctioned psyker at char creation feels like a massive self nerf

>mossa_abhuman_girls.png
what flavor of dogmatic human will trazyn have in his museum to be the new companion, /vee/?
better question, what fucking niche role is there left to fill?

>>713920585
we can hope they update the other origins to be a bit more in line with psyker and arbites

>>713920464
This but with buff slut officer

>>713920440
You have a single dialogue with him and in that conversation you determine his alignment, which can be any of the three. There's no long process like with Kibellah, it's just one dialogue chain and bam he's whatever you decide.

Do not take retarded oversimplifications taken as gospel.
Like, the motehrfuckers use Argenta, whose entire personality is 'Sister of Battle but alos tiny soft spot for kids/innocents' as an example of a wel ldeveloepd character and equating her with fucking Pasqal who has the most complex character development and personal questlien tha tties with the main game.

Argenat is one of the worst.
Solomorne is not as good as Pasqal but nobody us

>>713920464

a) 9 months
b) Reshuffling teams to get Dark heresy and Expanse going a bit faster.

Any advice on class? I usually pick what compliments the party you get in RPG's but most things seem pretty covered here?

>>713921542
Officers can always fit in, even if they are nerfed

>>713921542
Anything you like.
Except operative.
You build your characters piecemeal, so except for like 2 and a half companions, you can make them very different despite similar starting points

>>713921542
For roleplay, Officer is the usual go to.
For damage, bladedancer or soldier

It took 3 playthroughs and swapping her portrait with AI sloppa, but Idira finally won me over. She's actually a cute, shame you can't romance her.

>>713921542
If you're looking to fill what's missing (and don't plan on using Jae) Officer is the best choice, Cassia focuses on her Navigator powers over that so it's a missing niche in most party compositions.

>>713921542
Noble Officer > Overseer

I like the Abelard memes
I also like how he acts as a bit of a reality check telling the rogue trader that he shouldn't be meddling in the affairs of the commoners and should just let other people do their jobs. I thought that was cool, not have him just be your lapdog

>>713921542
Officer is a trap, it's effective but boring. Game's more enjoyable without a dancer taking up a slot and tons of posts here regretting their decision by act 2. Make your RT a big dick damage dealer and thank me later

>>713921735
Turn her into a pyromancer for extra fun

>>713921810
>I like the Abelard memes
Crabelard!

>>713921659
>>713921671
>>713921729
>>713921736

Why are yolu replaying to bait? Are you stupid?

>>713922021

You mean 3 right?

>>713922021
Lore wise, yes. Gameplay wise no. Just play a different kind of psyker than her

>>713922003
>Everything I don't like is Reddit!
Brilliant reasoning there, very compelling.

>>713921542
just read a bit through the exampler abilities, those will sorta be the capstone one final build, and explain the kind of builds you can make
sniper, tank, melee dps, aoe damage, burst/rof, etc
just pick the class based on what you wanna be

>>713922021
No, just overpowered. You have enough equipment to roll out 2 distinct and very broken psykers.
You can run Jimmy too and shift him towards more of an assassin who self buffs role.

>>713921542
just don't try to make some glass canon or squishy supporter. you always need decent armor/dodge/parry or a combination. youre stuck in tight spaces so often and the initiative rolls are such horseshit theyre gonna be downed turn 1

>>713922021
You can never have too many psykers.

If this happened to you beyond the Aurora fight, Anvers fight and that one weird tomb fight in Void Shadows, you are useless at games

>>713922228
>the initiative rolls are such horseshit
What the fuck were they thinking? The tabletop has a simple and straightforward way of determining initiative. The game doesn't even elaborate what makes it up.

>>713922372
good luck with that in events like the bridge fight in kibellas's quest with waves after waves and any ambush

Does Solomorne leave you on a Heretical run?

>>713922507
Bro I've beaten the game on Unfair in both runs, I don't know wtf you are doing if you think this games combat is anything but a joke.

>>713922734

>>713922562
No, you can shift his alignment to whatever you want in a single conversation.

>>713922839
You can turn him into a heretic?

>>713920754
No problem with that as long as his doubts are a common theme of his questline and as long as the decision happens after something impactful that made him doubt himself

It won't the most OP build but you'll be zooming around knocking people over and getting lots of free shield bashes. Combine that with the malpian shroud and you can do decent numbers

I have never played an Owlcat game, nor D&D/Pathfinder. Can I start the game on one difficulty above normal and do fine by making educated guesses about character skills and upgrades? Or is this one of those games where it's not obvious which skills synergise the best and/or it's all about following guides (which are made with future items/encounters in mind that I have no way of predicting)?

Well, going to Rykad first in act 1 with just a party of 4 at level 5 certainly makes the act 1 experience more interesting.

>>713924184
>wanting other men to get off to her ass
Stop being a cuck

>>713924349
It's recommended to go in blind and without following a build.

>>713924349
The difficulty is very customizable and you can always turn it down at any time. I think Daring is a good choice even for a first run. The ruleset isn't that esoteric or hard to learn if you're willing to put the effort in.

>>713924349
You'll be fine if you stay on the lower difficulties.

>>713924349
Yes.
DnD 3.xxx, for all its options, is not actually hard to figure out and pure classing sensibly will be more than enough. As long as you avoid difficulties called HARD and UNFAIR, you will be fine

RT is even easier.

>>713924413
I can guarantee you that even if your wife is a virgin there will always be always men who beat their meat to her

>>713924349
>I have never played an Owlcat game, nor D&D/Pathfinder. Can I start the game on one difficulty above normal and do fine by making educated guesses about character skills and upgrades?
Yes you'll be fine. The Pathfinder games Owlcat made had a tendency to screw you over and included multiple beginner traps but Rogue Trader is based on an entirely different system and much easier than their previous games.
>Or is this one of those games where it's not obvious which skills synergise the best and/or it's all about following guides (which are made with future items/encounters in mind that I have no way of predicting)?
That's exactly what the Pathfinder games were but RT will let you do fine with educated guesses and just making good decisions mid-combat

>>713924349
i went in blind on the setting one above normal. i was able to play through the game quite well, some fights were tough though.
if you have played crpgs before and can read you will be fine

I'm sad there is no space for Abelard in my party anymore.

I'm pretty sure Kibellah has had sex before, there's dialogue where she makes it clear she's not opposed to that kind of pleasure

>>713924349
I've been playing on Daring, no experience with the TTRPG or previous Owlcat games, no idea what I'm doing with builds. I've found the game to be exceedingly easy outside of two spikes (act 1 boss, Kiava Gamma boss), and even there I didn't die.

I would strongly recommend starting on at least Hard. That said, the voidship combat is harder than the ground combat so maybe leave that on a lower difficulty.

>>713925324
A pathetic rebuttal.

I leave Abelard behind on a lot of missions because I don't trust anyone else to handle the dynasty while I'm planetside

How? He actually fulfills his role as a Dark Eldar rep, he's pretty much perfect in his portrayal in that regard, he has great banter with the rest of the crew, and his dialogue and quest is solid. He's not even comparable to Yrliet, who is outright the worst character Owlcat ever made sans Nenio.

Abelard was embraced by a fucking pain engine dude, the whole reason he's delusional and having visions of his wife is because his mind is fucked up from how much agony he went through. The only two companions who arguably get off with relatively little torture in Commoragh are Argenta and Idira.

>>713925821
>He actually fulfills his role as a Dark Eldar rep, he's pretty much perfect in his portrayal in that regard
By dying? Sure

I really tried with this game and I'm also a tabletop 40k player but damn the character skill tree is a total mess. Ita so fucking bloated with useless conditional skills I can't wrap my head around a simple build let alone a synergy with all the characters. It's a shame because it's really well written and interesting.

>>713925012
is this fine

>>713924849
aye, i'm something of a FAT FUCK myself, and beautiful cute women like Cassia will willingly have sex with ME! ha ha ha !!

>>713925794
It is genuinely amazing how Pasqal is indisputably the best companion in the game by a country mile.

>>713925983
oh yeah? tell us your flamboyant french name NOW

>>713925940
By actually showcasing what the Drukhari are and how they operate, without holding back. Compare him to Yrliet, who absolutely fails to show off ANYTHING interesting or cool about being a Craftworld Eldar. For fucks sake you get more information on CWE from Marazhais content than you do hers. I swear Yrliets writer didn't read anything about Eldar whatsoever when they wrote the character.

>>713926043
I mean if it's not Gerard Deparhowever you spell the last name, why bother. He's the quintessential french fat guy.

>>713925484
Maraztards are like the female Camtards, they swear above all else that they're the bests characters ever made and you're missing out if you don't use them (you're not)

Bon Bon Enjoyer

>Nicholas van Rijn is a flamboyant capitalist adventurer, and is of Dutch ancestry (apparently a resident of Djakarta, and thus an Indo). His speech is bombastic and heavily laced with unconventional constructs, puns, oaths, and words from various Northern European languages: in particular Dutch, German, and possibly Danish. Although he frequently employs malapropisms such as "Angular-Saxon" or "hunky-dinghy", they are often so devious or apropos as to appear intentional. Some more minor characters have used a similar patois. Van Rijn is well-educated in Earth's literature and history and also displays considerable cunning and capacity for bullying armed aliens into doing his bidding. Although a formidable individual in necessity (his battle cries have included "God send the Right!", "Kristmenn, Krossmenn, Kongsmenn!", and "Heineken Bier!"), he prefers material luxuries to personal heroism. He routinely describes himself as an old, weak, sinful man, but usually follows it by lamenting that his subordinates (or humanity in general) are unable to accomplish anything without his aid.

Noted, I was thinking about either getting WotR and this. The former may have more/finished content but I absolutely hate beginner traps/foreknowledge and I know I'll have half as much fun as I otherwise would have if I have to follow a guide instead of figuring things out myself. I'll pick it up, thanks anons

>>713927305
Void Shadows is self contained. You cannot finish it until later acts but you can start and progress through it at any point before the game ends.

It's just boring. Companions aren't corruptible on the whole, or even show much reaction to your dastardly deeds at all. The only reason it has to exist is giving you an excuse to take the deldar.

Mhm

>>713928660
>Bad with a Bolter
She wrecks shit with them.
>Can't use power armor
Yes she can, and she specifically gets power armor unique to her if you handle her dialogue correctly.
>Can't use a flamer
Yes, she can.
>Can't use a melta
She can if you spec her into it but meltas are the worst weapon type in this game so yeah. Have to wonder if you've even played this game with a post like that.

>>713928252

Canonically navigators can indeed have babies with humans, and Cassia DOES try to have kids with you, specifically in the ending where she goes infertile, just to rub it in

Rightfully so, Argenta should have a romance, Cassia should pop up at least a dozen of fish babies with you, Yrliet is shit for multiple reasons, not putting out is one of them, Jae and Jocasta are both ugly as a fucking sin (and the latter isn't even a romance so why is she even there), and in Jae's case she's also a whore (the redditor forgot about that)
Kibellah is the only one who gets a pass because almost nobody complains about her piercings, and the short hair is simply false, people are turned off by THIS haircut, not by short hair per se (Argenta and Cassia both have short hair and nobody cares)

>>713928252

Romance does not equal attractiveness.

I just noticed that there's a Tech-Priest merchant on Rykad. Are there any other merchants in Act I (besides the pirates)?

i just wanted to do another playthrough with soldier + executioner and do pyromancer shit but you actually cant do soldier into executioner

so I either become operative but there's already a psyker operative or i give up on burn stacking meme build executioner

why the fuck is soldier pigeonholed into so few tier 2 classes when run&gun is designed to work with psyker staff attacks

>>713930675
No, just cogs and pirates

>>713916791 (OP)
Why can't owl cat make good character models? They look like blocky fat shit from kingmaker to Rogue Trader. All I ever wanted was a crpg with GOOD character models, attack animations and environments. Pillar of eternity was SOOOOO close. Baldurs Gate 3 looks like slapstick comedy.

>>713930809

Your post oozes passive aggressiveness, did his post upset you?

>>713930926
He's not next to the computer, he stands to the left of the throne. And he looks exactly like the other tech-priests. I only noticed him because I saw that he had an actual name and wasn't just called "Techpriest".

>>713931232
Yeah, it's one of the very few exceptions, hence the use of the word "most"

A reminder that GW studio shot down Sisters of Battle being romanceable since it goes against the canon.
No. GW studio gives zero shits about BL novels. They regularly ignore them.

>>713931473

Doesn't.

>>713931473
>GW studio gives zero shits about BL novels. They regularly ignore them.
As they should. BL is trash and I find it funny that in-universe the clowns are guarding it as some sort of treasure trove of knowledge

>>713931648
It does. GW studio were okay with Khornate sorcerors but romancable sisters are a no go. Think about that.

>>713932083
I can imagine an apple just fine anon, it's just that it's that, your imagination, the apple doesn't exist, just like your ending with kids with whoever is your romance option doesn't exist either, unless you're a Kibellahfag

>>713918835
I'm gonna assume the lack of enthusiasm on Owlkek's part is that GW demanded a space cop and they said fine whatever. And that Kibellah is one of the lead dev's waifu.

>>713932776

I didn't flirt with her

>>713924809
I know that feel, i like abelard introduction dialogue but anything abelard can do jimmi can do it better

Ok, anyone visiting the facility beforehand could have guessed they would turn to heresy, because the only possible reason to build a brige like this (instead of 4 pathways, 2 paths that rotate making the other 2 unusable) is to have a shithead villain monologue on it just to turn the brige and force the valiant hero to run in every part of the dungeon to reach you.

And guess fucking what.

Do people seriously not choose this right from the start for her?

>>713929105
Didn't look so bad from a distance desu

>>713934731
The entire point of the quest (because it's part of her questline, not her romance) is to familiarize her with other people since she spent her entire life being a crazy weird cultist. Now you could argue that I shouldn't have left alone with her to talk but nothing about that implied I was going to be locked into dialogue that would force me to start a romance with her, especially since all the options to dismiss her make you sound like an asshole

>>713934768
this, she looks like a cyberpunk tomboy from the thumbnail, then you expand the image and it's no bueno

>>713929105
I genuinely thought she was a man until like Act II

>>713931832
Still doesn't go against canon.

Anyone make a full team of custom companions?

Does relaying psychic powers trigger Advice and Guidance? Or is that talent dead if you go Overseer?

>>713934427
I don't know where to go please respond

>>713935116
It does... on the familiar. Yeah, it's a dead talent, unless you waste the first turn casting it on someone else instead of relaying it

>>713935220
I assume the same is true for all talents of that nature, like Unnatural Luck?

>>713935060
it costs PF which initially hurts but you can pick their alignment so you can have a burster use aurora's heretic heavy bolter real quick

>>713931961

Khorne is just weird. Why does a chaos god have principles? If all there is to life is violence and struggle, why are some kinds of violence wrong?

It all feels like some holdover from early warhammer fantasy where chaos gods weren't pure evil.

the psyker bird seems cool but not the other pets

did the redress mod get updated in any way? I wanna mix and match the arbites origin gear

>>713935216
I'd do the prison planet first, than Rykad. Also, at some point you'll get somebody telling you to go somewhere on your own ship. You can do that whenever you please.

>>713935359
the "principles" just comes down to hoarding power, khorne kills fast and mindlessly cause pain makes slaanesh stronger, and slow death makes nurgle stronger, and thinking makes tzeentch stronger, and khorne hates anything that doesn't exclusively benefit him
every god is like this

>>713935604
Yeah, got a minor update last week-mostly backend stuff, but the load order is less jank now. Still no full modularity for Arbites gear though, only the chest piece has swappable variants. If you want full mix and match you'll have to use the asset unlock workaround, but that breaks half the shaders unless you manually patch them. Pain in the ass but doable if you're desperate for fashion heresy.

I have some questions regarding falling to chaos
IN the case of Calligos, it happens over a rather long period of time and with subtle manipulation. Yet if you choose to be a heretic, you just embrace it without any real change to your mind. What causes that difference

>>713935749
That your character looks at chaos and thinks "yeah that's cool I want some of that" so they embrace being evil just because
>but why
Because Owlcat is lazy and they didn't implement a proper chaos corruption route

>>713935749
the demon kunrad infected you with protects you from other demonic shit

>>713935749
>What causes that difference
Then answer is, as always, owlkek's incompetence and bad writing

>>713935749
Pretty sure that first choice you're ever given is supposed to reflect your "true" nature regardless of what kind of upbringing you had or opportunities you had to do bad things. Remember that most people are ignorant to the ruinous powers. Pretty sure most demons encounters are passed off as "that was an evil xenos."

I've been using officers to beef up executioner pyromancer Heinrix often letting him nuke the entire map with his heroic action.

And I completely trivilized the game with Act 4 accessory that disables momentum cost for heroic abilities on my Master Tactician Officer and the accessory that always lets the equipper goes first (even ahead of grand strategist). The master tactictan have the ability to basically fill up momentum bar by just using various abilities, thus I can use Finest Hour Heroic action on Heinrix and still allows him to immediately use his own heroic action immediately. This basically turbo buffs Heinrix before any enemy could act (can also piggy back off of Cassia's buffs through Bring it down) and lets him wipe out the whole map while still technically being on the first party member's turn.

>>713936824
Seducing any chaste, religious figure is a secret turn on for many.
But Catholic priests (and nuns for that matter) have a drip no other organized religion got.

>>713936197
Let me guess, you went back to the ship to take a shower instead of forcing Vladaym to inhale your sewer stank.

if you make an arbites when do you get a cyber mastiff?

>>713937896
When you pick overseer for your second class

>>713937883
Nuns don't give sermons

these skulls are surprisingly tanky, and any buffs you give to idira will also affect them. they also synergize very well with any character that get bonuses from attacking targets with priority targets. picrel is an item i got while cleaning rumors near the end of act 2, in one of the planets (didn't even notice which)

>>713938064

>>713938082

The whole subreddit is a cancer now. Between newcomers that don't know shit about 40K and faggots that turned the most deranged characters into "uwu so kewt"...It reeks of people that sodomized the bear in BG3

>>713938082
Nice. Shame tanks are useless in the Alpha Strike meta. But if they got stuff like this in DH, maybe it'll be fun to use there.

>>713938082
Do familiars benefit from their master's stats? Will my officer's skull benefit from its high Fel for example?

>>713938275
>going to l*ddit

>>713937210
>Am I missing something
Probably. You need to use the "relocation" skill to make them move, and like characters they have limited movement.

>>713938283
no but they have their own stacking mechanics, and in the case of cassia they also benefit from her navigator power bonuses, they can become quite tanky

>>713937837
Except only one of those two groups gets to have their ship in the game

>>713938520
>ship

>>713938560
...yes?

>>713938520
Femcel's pussy game is just too damn strong. Incel trader's can't compete

>Take in the navigator and his cre that the game claims is corruptesd by chaos

Why? Why even put you in a situation where you have to decide if the situation has no resolution? Owlcat, please. You have to realise that choice and consequence is what makes a good story-driven game. Not fucking romances

Trying Idira with an Eagle, I hope the debuffs works with Weak Hearts.

>>713938910
grand inquisitor berates you for it, which is funny because it feels like he's grasping for reasons to accuse you if you are mix of dogmatic / iconoclast

>>713921852
Officer is only boring if you don't go Psyker since Psyker makes it have high damage for free as well and even more buffing potential

>>713939113
>grand inquisitor berates
That only makes me wetter

>>713938943
I actually haven't seen the mini-series. I probably should.

Man it's crazy how many extremely powerful yet also missable items there are in the game
>Malpian Shroud, Janus Torpedos & Spirit Drape being exclusive Colony rewards
>all sorts of missable items behind ONE time only skill checks like the best staff for Cassia, the best one for Psy Rating, best boots for Cassia etc.
>just Solomorne's recruitment ship area alone has FOUR permanently missable items, all of which are very powerful and hidden behind one time only skillchecks, including a shotgun that literally adds +1 attack, something you can count in 1 hand as far as items that do that in the WHOLE game, and you can never return to that area

>>713937836
She would have made the new DLC sell instead of flopping like Failmorne

what's the name of the shotgun?

>>713939969
Crescendo

>>713939962
lol no, the DLC is just 1k away from reachin the same peak as Void Shadows, and who knows, maybe it will tomorrow since it's sunday
Also Camellia is the least popular of the main girls in WotR and the only reason why she beats Galfrey is becasue Galfrey has zero screentime and isn't even a proper companion

>>713925976
I'm still annoyed that the PC Psyker only starts with one school while Idira and Heinrix has two.

Veilrender feels very strong on jimmy, I like the new force-swords they added.

>it's the play as kebab part
Uuuuuuuuuuugh... I forgot about it. I shouldn't have recruited her at all

>>713939442
And I should read the book

>>713940501
Is it bugged?
It doesn't seem to work with multiple attacks from Finest Hour or the Warrior Heroic for me

>>713939057
>Level 15

The only enemies it's worth it on in Act 1 are the Chaos Spawns and Aurora and Kibbles turns both of those into giblets.

>>713940805
You need to crit to activate the effect, I'm guessing that's your problem. There's a lot of good crit-boosting passives in Santic/Pyromancer routes.

>>713929068
>I just saw a bit about him writing about the RT autistically.
That's all? I guess I'll take that over the psycho that is Marazhai.

>>713941270
That's the thing, it wasn't working for me after crits when having multiple attacks/turn
it's outclassed by any Chainsaw anyways

>>713941528
Chainsaws really need to be nerfed to only trigger on hits once with the first hit. Treat it like burst fire on guns.

>>713941528
Weird, it was working for me.

>>713941690
Chainsaws look retarded so I'm never using them. Fashion>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>utility

You'll lose out on a considerable amount of loot and story stuff

>>713942437
Got a cyber eagle and named it Jimmy Jr. And YES, getting a dog and giving it the same name would be more funny for more than 1 reason, but I like birds

>>713942524
It's the only way, you have to. Get used to it, the cult is constantly doing retarded shit that would get anyone else killed if you're the kind of RT that shoots people for looking at him funny

>>713942639
Which story? If it's kebab then I don't care. I already did it and it's all nonsense. The genestealer story is progressing as intended so far (waiting for the nemesite attack atm)

>>713939660
>a shotgun that literally adds +1 attack
are you fucking kidding me? I just did the ship and didnt find this

>>713942773
Yeah it's just kibble stuff

>>713942826
You can literally go there without her though

>>713942826
doubt.jpg
I went there without even recruiting her. I think it's just a way to show you how those retards operate. I don't think you lose anything by not doing it.

>>713943069
It's literally part of the main quest, you have to do it

>>713943109
Which main quest?

>>713943204
The DLC's

I fucking hate fighting nurgle so much it's unreal. fuck off with your brap clouds already

>>713943695
uh oh stinkyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

is that new class worth going on any of the other members of the retinue

>>713943793
It's kinda mid overall but it's good for psykers, so heinrix/idira/RT (although it depends on your build).

>>713943793
Idira

>>713942524
You already leapt through a wall of flaming promethium, what's so bad about a little base jumping without a parachute.

>>713943793
Idira and... Jae i guess

>>713943909
I didn't though

>>713944000
Weak

>>713943793
I'm having fun with it

Best archetypes to choose for an Arbites?
I figured Warrior or Soldier was good go start with. Chose the latter and focused on using shotguns. Any reccomendations for feats?

>>713944074
Soldier into MT for dual wielding shotgun autism

>>713943793
idira for raven, skulls for cassia, eagle for pascal. i have grandmaster blacklisted, and the eagle is more fun for pascal than bounty hunter extra turns shenanigans. btw there is one skill, strategic adaptation, if you kill an enemy with an attack the ap is refunded, and you can attack again. so good action economy too, especially on the eagle

>Commissar gets to call everyone a shitheel and command them to go to the Docks to be reprimanded even if you are incognito
>Arbite doesn't get a similar interaciton

Lame.

>>713916791 (OP)
ABELARDDDDD
KIBBELAH NEEDS PLUGGING AGAIN

>>713944074
if you have idira and cassia on the team also going overseet, look into shotfun + shield dual wielding. the first shield attack is free, and that overrides the extra ap cost from dual wielding. with the buffs and peak condition, you can do very high damage with the shield as a arch militant.

>>713933031
we're in imperium nihlus, that'd be one very lost tau.

>>713944117
Skull is kinda worthless for Cassia since her Nav powers won't spread and she doesn't really have the space for Officer abilities early besides starter Voice of Command

>>713944074
from soldier you can grab the usual strong stuff like swift slaughter and damage boosts after striking multiple enemies that synergize well with aoes. If you are going shield and shotty then avoid the cover bonus stuff since you'll like be out in the open
If you go AM the free grenade origin talent can be pretty cool if you also go for the AM talent that makes grenades count for versatility. MT has a similar talent and may work a bit better since you'd have a harder time stacking versatility with 2 shotguns

>>713944820
she comes with bring it down by default

>>713944395
Won't shield bash damage be bad since it scales with toughness/strength?

>>713945054
With the update it's not all bad now for some encounters, bring it down makes shots ignore shields now.

>>713944113
>>713944395
>>713944985
Hmm.
Thanks for the advice /v/ros. Gonna make sure things are in order before I hit level 16.

>>713945396
>not all bad now
Anon, Bring it Down has always been one of the strongest abilities in the game

>hots ignore shields now
Aren't only enemies in the DLC actually equipped with Shields anyways, spells just bypass that too

>>713925938
Argenta kind of pisses me off. I'm not saying they had to have a gory mutilation, but her being all "howdy Rogue trader!" While everyone else is getting put in pain machines pissed me off. You're telling me that the most the deldar had for a captured sister of battle was a fair fight against a monster in an easily escapable arena?

Could have been a chance for some development. Maybe she's a bit shook up with a new eyepatch portrait and you remind her that the emperor's light shines even in the darkest places.

>>713945481
Oh I was thinking Take Aim since she starts with that.

I feel like we should've been given the choice to make abelard an officer, or even been officer by default. Like fuck off, I'm not micromanaging faggots in the middle of battle and letting them get the kills. Abelard, see to the chaps while I go take skull of this monstrosity for my trophy room.

>>713945139
one turn of buffs from idira + cassia

>>713946195
no need to invest any points into it, i usually never take idira with me, but if i am going to take her might as well take advantage

>still no way ot diable environmental hazzards on kiava

>>713943793
I like the bird on idira, lets her target everyone at once with her buffs. i like having the trio of idira, cassia and heinrix to buff the shit out of everyone, I might try out servo skull on cassia later instead of grand strategist

>Give Abelard the Fencing Boots and a two handed chainsword
>Game turns into a VN
They really should drop a combat rebalance patch and rework all the main game encounters.

>>713940805
I just tested it ingame with finest hour and it works properly

>>713947207

Reminder not to trade fuel in Act 2, save it all to offload onto the explorator space station for Profit Factor.

>>713948731
You can do it in act 2

Yup, that should keep order amongst this rabble

>>713948902
Yeah but the longer you wait the better.

How will he ever recover?

>>713949765
Jimmy is retarded...

>>713949765
This shit is what I don't like about the party, I get that it was done to show off the various factions of the Imperium since it's the first intro for a lot of people but of the characters you recruit over the course of the game Jae and Kibellah are the only ones that are actually part of your retinue and will keep working in your dynasty after the game ends (not counting prologue party members because they were already working under Theodora).

>1 ballistic skill
>1 weapon skill
Is this the power of the legendary Space Marine?

>>713950029
I assume you're singling Jae out because of her romance, except that the other romance options also have endings where they stay

>>713950029
Cassia works for you too. You can outright have an indentured servitude situation with her. So do the elves. Only Jimmy and Solomorne are along for the ride

>etire party botching initiative rolls and going last for the 4th time in a row, including the boss battle

>>713950490
No because her act 2 quest is having you get her a trade warrant so she can act as a broker on behalf of your dynasty. As for the rest

Cassia is a Novator and leaves to run her house
Pasqal is a Magos that leaves to lead his fleet again
Heinrix is an Inquisitorial agent that only sticks around if he's dicking the femtrader
Argenta was along for the ride with Theodora but finds her purpose when she discovers the lost planet and founds an order
The Eldar are xenos and leave when they get bored
Ulfar returns to his Chapter

Yeah you can be allied to them in the epilogue and even boss some of them around but as far as people that actually help you run the dynasty in the end it's Abelard/his kids if he retires, Idira depending on her ending, Jae, and Kibellah.

>>713950741
I wouldn't say Yrliet works for you for most of the game, she's just looking for her kin
Maraztard definetly does in act 4

>>713951032
Both Cassia and Yrliet stay with you in specific romance endings

>>713950978
it isn't just me? most of my team is going last in this new run

>>713951201
And Jae stays with the Dynasty without a romance, she goes rogue and dies without a solid dicking but that's after years or even decades of working for you.

>>713951201
No. Cassia goes to rule her house in a true ending. Yrliet sticks around for 50 years or leaves for decades and returns to find RT dying

Now, this I like, too bad they are arbites and not my own men
This should happen more often, it makes 0 sense for me to assault, for example, Kiava Gamma alone with my retinue
I should be down with a squad of enforecers to, to cover my back at least
But the general feel is correct

>>713951856
They are your own men. The arbites have their own boarding party

>thinking there could ever be a loved filled happy ending for a rogue trader of all people
lol. lmao.

I think glowies won bros

>>713951998
Oh well the point still stands
This is the only quest I've seen this when really it should be very common for me to have enforcers with me

I haven't played since launch where the optimal thing (outside of having your RT be psyker) was officer RT with Pasq/Argenta/Fish/Filler. I know there were minor nerfs here and there to some of the stronger stuff and that the 1st DLC introduced Bladedancer with kibbles as a ST god and some broken as shit Pyro/Executioner RT solo thing. Beyond that has the "meta" shifted in any meaningful way? With the second DLC out I'm ready to play again but would be completely fine with just doing an officer run repeat with Kibbles swapped for one of the filler and call it a day.

>>713952026
You have exactly that with jimmy, despite the game implying that the inquisition will be hounding him. And with Cassia

>>713930596

Heinrix is gay-bait. Women would find his cattiness and high standards exhausting (which is why fujos like him). Marzipan has Pete Davidson's body type but with a toxic and fun personality. You would have to be a very specific kind of quirk chungus girl to think heinrix' personality is attractive

>>713952523
And Jae. And Solomorne

>>713952592
You don't know shit about women

sadistic brown woman-at-arms is the only girl for me
