So looking at the numbers for lower difficulties and extrapolating I would expect the following modifiers for LETHAL:

>Player Modifiers:
> -35% max health.
> -50% armor segment size
> +400% grenade damage to enemies
> -40% dodge invulnerability and perfect dodge windows
> +80% gun strike damage.
>AI Bots:
> +500% health for MINORIS, MAJORIS, EXTREMIS, and TERMINUS classes.
>General:
> Respawn time: No respawn until checkpoint
> Incapacitation limit: 1
> Friendly fire OFF (also for enemies)

2 grenades are enough to stun a majoris and you get a full fill up every 30 seconds for a majoris. the grenades have less AoE than regular frags though, so using them smart is necessary if you want to crowd clear

>>498267662
It's so hard to take that perk over the auto reload perk. The reload perk works great with a melta.
>>
>>498268452
Guns do start recoiling before the bullet comes out. The timing is still fucked, his pistol is already off at an angle when you get the muzzle flash, it's typically negligible in real life unless it's a relatively low power long barrel rifle.

not that thats wrong, but others can just shoot them.
vanguard is the most selfish class. if you want to provide something for the team you are going for inner fire, but thats just snipers team perc in very bad. the basic increase to melee damage is somewhat interesting, but you dont really want a team that benefits from that because more melee means shitter bossdamage and vanguard is already shit at bossdamage.
i´ve tried to be "reasonable" with instigator and chainsword but knife and melta is just much more effective overall.
and the whole parry stuff is a odd thing. i dont know what it is but if i pick a "balanced" weapon with the 50% increased window perc parry feels like absolute ass, especially on the chainsword. the 1 speed on that thing generally makes me want to kill myself (just tried to make max melee damage with the dumb windup attack work, it doesn´t)

nice
>>
>>498269675
i dont really have a answer for that, like i wont pretend that i figured it out. i tried pure light attack spam with all of the % reduced ranged damage taken perks (you can reach 50% on vanguard) or simply the % damage increase for heavys when doing heavys. i had the best feeling with the heavy stacking build, despite usually avoiding those stacking percs because as soon as you have to parry multiple majoris, reposition or do a execution/catching a minoris all the stacks are gone.
with the chainsword i have a definitive line that i prefer, with the knife everything feels kinda eh.

It's amazing. It's just a text chat between some guys, but the music, pacing and flashing of the words really works.

I felt like overall SM1 was just a better conceptualized game in terms of story and characters. And Titus's voice actor was so damn good.

But to be fair the last stand scene in 2 is without a doubt the series highlight so far.

>>498268886

watch them nerf the nade launcher the same way

2 nades per majoris/30s
instant low tier gun
>>
>>498274616
probably not 2, but 50% or something. which is still 5-6 nades enough to clear a set of majoris
>>
>>498274714
with plasma its 1/3rd of base ammo capacity
the nade launchers base capacity is 6, so it would be 2

Man the heavy bolter just does no fucking damage. I am giving up on levelling it until bolt weapons get buffed.

Are you just dumb or do you not understand that one perk adds ammo to your reserve while the other instantly reloads your current magazine?

i say this all the time & everytime it gets ignored.
emperors fury should generate a % of total ammo, not a mag. even if bolters would be generally on the same power level as plasma and grenades the ammo economy for bolters is terrible with emperors vengeance. sometimes you kill a majoris with like 5 ammo missing well fuck you, you get 5 ammo back and its on cooldown now.

But YOU betrayed PvE. You betrayed us all. You stole bandwidth from the host, and lied to your squadmates. SM2 has only one chance to prosper. If you will not seize it, then I WILL.
SO LET IT BE PVP.

Magnus allowed the burning of prospero by disarming everyone.

they still are, one refills your active mag on "majoris or higher KILL" with 30 sec cooldown

the other, reloads from reserve on ANY finisher, minoris, majoris, melee finisher, gunstrike finisher, dont matter, reloads
>>
>>498280723
Relentless Pursuit (Column 2 Perk 2) is supposed to be Good, my mistake.
>>498281378
Versatility is objectively an S tier perk. It's a permanent 20% sidearm damage buff with no requirement and no cooldown.

In 3rd Column, you can offset the 2nd Perk by taking Priority Targeting in the first column. Trading Auspex for Minoris (who gives a fuck) vs an 8 second long, huge damage buff. This is ideal for nuking Terminus enemies.

AOE Finisher basically means free horde clear. Sometimes it does nothing, sometimes it means if you're completely swarmed all enemies around you explode into dust.
The Extremis one-shot is also good; it's just too inconsistent. Either you run a full CD build, or you try to save it hoping an Extremis shows up instead of blowing up every single Majoris.

>>498281945
>+dmg on overheat is build dependant
Is it? Unless you're only shooting half your mag and then cooling, you're going to be overheating basically every single fight.
>i like 20% dmg reduction after halo deactivation
Why? You're basically choosing a perk that says, "I plan on losing all my armor every single fight and then taking damage"
>i thing equipment charge on 10 rapid kills is trash
Again, why? Heavy is one of the best add-clear classes. This perk effectively gives you 3 Kraks, 2 Meltas, 3 Shocks, etc.
>15% ranged dmg while halo is on cd is objectively better
Generally I agree, although if you're completely specialized into expending Iron Halo and taking advantage of the other perks that do as well, it shines.

>Versatility is objectively an S tier perk. It's a permanent 20% sidearm damage buff with no requirement and no cooldown.
it does have a requirement, no reloading , it goes away after reloads, but i suppose its better than the column alternatives, i just dont make use of it, so i like the chance at 25% dmg more

>Is it? Unless you're only shooting half your mag and then cooling, you're going to be overheating basically every single fight.
yes, melta does not have overheat iit is 100% wasted there
>Why? You're basically choosing a perk that says, "I plan on losing all my armor every single fight and then taking damage"
its on halo deactivation not breaking, so you can technicly trigger it voluntarily, and its nice eating 20% less shit when your halo does break, for me, way better than a nade when i manage rapid kills, which is kinda hard to trigger on anything non-melta or an armor segment, which you probably have full when your halo breaks anyway
>Again, why? Heavy is one of the best add-clear classes. This perk effectively gives you 3 Kraks, 2 Meltas, 3 Shocks, etc.

I'm not 100% sure actually. There's a guy on their Discord who has been looking into it a lot. At first he said that Overcharge doesn't actually affect the Plasma.

Then later he said it does actually affect the Plasma, but only the Incinerator, not the Pistol. I can't find anything solid on it from the Devs.

I actually sorta like it now. There's still some skub but it's much better compared to the first revision.

>>498281209
overcharge is build dependant i'd say, bonks are kinda its own playstyle, while armor on all gunstrikes is more generally useful

i think zealous blow (10% charge on Ground pound kill) is also sorta dependent, its absolute bonkers vs a swarm of nids, but if all you hit is majoris, then youre not really doing anything
tough

only leveled assault to 13 so far, really fun class with the thunderhammer though.
nids are fun, but i'm having a decent amount of truble with tsons, they dont cluster and generaly, when i'm dealing with rubrics, the tzangors chew me up, and when i'm dealing with tzangors the rubrics blast me to hell
>>
>>498289998

Tangential to this: Its bullshit that the chaos can apply their effect so quickly. You can literally get one shot into the mass illusion effect by an attack from a majoris or the sorcerer. That's way too far.

to guesstimate based on shots to kill.
To test you'd need to load into a mission, get to a Extremis and/or Terminus without damaging anything else, shooting it once, then leave the mission which is how those numbers were acquired for Majoris.

Devs said gunstrikes have no I-frames because "gunstrikes are powerful and there needs to be balance against it"

>>498306968
Not what he means I assume.
It's that you often dodge, game registers it as a "perfect" dodge, so one that gives you a gunstrike, yet the Carnifex hurtbox is so fucked you still take damage.
>>
I personally think focusing on pvp would be better their PvE missions are too big to keep pumping them out. People are already dropping the games old school right down to the we just stop caring about it after 2 months.

Put out, like, two more maps, finish implementing marine customization for Chaos, implement basic multiplayer tools like map/game mode vote and team shuffle. Right now it's woefully unfinished and light on content, although I guess the content part is true for both PvP and co-op.
>>
>>498307236
Can't say I've ever had that happen to me. I dodge diagonally into the Carnifex's attacks and it works consistently. I just hate having to dodge the thing when it's not targeting me because most people just panic and have the guy rampage around the entire area.
>>
>>498307236
Imo the problem is he dodges to the side instead of under the carni, he isnt hit by the main attack but the aoe damage from his charge. You occasionaly get damaged by it even when youre not the target and he just passes you on the way

I have leveled the Stalker and Instigator back to back over the past 2 days.
The Instigator is the CLEAR superior choice. The Stalker is just way too slow on the damage and it might just be my memory but I think the reload is even slower. It does more damage, in a shorter time. They have REALLY got to do a balance pass on these bolter weapons.
And to that autist that is always talking about how the Stalker is like S tier, go try the Instigator.

Its a little werid having to use it on Vanguard though, I find myself just hanging out in the back picking guys off and backing my team and go the whole fight without ever using my grappel or meleeing a major.

Try the Instigator on the Tactician. (Mod to have every weapon on arsenal.) It's absolutely awesome and fun.

I am convinced the only reason Carbine exists and has two versions (and sucks) is so it lures all oldfags gravitating towards a Bolter without a fidget spinner (and convinces them Firstborn suck).

It wasn't made to "get" anyone. Someone was just wondering if you could make a character look like the trans flag and I decided to try. In the process I decided to make it a reference to a prety well-known meme from a few years ago. Not everything is so serious, lighten up.

Signature middle overheat perk is actually really disgusting when the stars align on a specifically built boltor and is absolutely the best perk on that tier (for bolter) until you hit max level and gain access to the cooldown one. It's just that you either need to put in a lot of effort for it or coordination to actually leverage the oppressive DPS it unlocks. So if you're running the Bolter from 1-24 you should use that perk until you hit 25 and then switch off it.
First column bottom row perk is also a good pick for bolter if you're packing the plasma pistol because it has dogshit ammo economy and if you get unlucky ammo seed spawns there's a very real chance of running dry on it and if that happens with that perk you toss a frag and then drop 2-3 charged shots and it'll refill your heavy bolter ammo. You don't have the ammo needed to shoot guarded units with the other perk anyway.

My predictions for more cosmetics;
Dark Angels, Blood Angels and Space Wolves will get full DLCs
Scars, Salamanders and Raven Guard will get minor cosmetics tacked onto those
Iron Hands will get nothing
>>
>>498324069
Imperial Fists will get a full DLC.
Actual Imperial Fists cosmetics will be tacked onto the true content of said DLC, which is Black Templars.
>>
>>498322905
Correct, but it's still better than micro damage on bubble for the bolter since it's not enough to practically kill anything close up and the last thing you want is units close to you with the heavy bolter. On the flip side lets say you're doing the big final push of a mission and one teammate goes down and dies because they have no relic and were already incapped (which isn't too uncommon). Now if your other squad mate gets grabbed by any grappling unit or goes down there's basically nothing that can kill you so long as you have ammo because you will regain contested health at an absurd rate and you simply don't stop because you can't overheat and can't be staggered out of heavy stance. However you then hit level 25 and have to decide if a very lethal but extremely niche last stand perk is worth giving up over a perk that functions the entire mission and mitigates the chance your team will be put in such a position in the first place. The answer is pretty easy.
>>

Lol.
Also I suggest rebinding aiming to right mouse button and making it hold, not toggle, so you can take advantage of, in this case, incerased melta ADS fire rate, while also being able to still parry everything.

I second this. People have said Venting is BiS but even with all the accuracy perks I still take accuracy Heavy Bolter because it's so much more important to shoot heads than shoot for longer. When overheated just fire a shot or two from your Plasma Pistol and your Bolter will be ready to fire back again.

This game wouldn't last long for those factions to get aesthetics.

They will only do what they've shown on the roadmap and then they'll drop this game and move to SM3's development (since they actually made shekels from this one).

Titus in SM1 was a beast with the chainsword. He swings it faster than any knife in SM2. The heavy attacks don't need to be charged and have massive AOE. They instantly stun orks in a wide radius. It also sounds meaty as fuck. What a game. So glad I replayed it.

so from what I gather
a space marine chapter is only allowed to have 1000 troops
growing a space marine involves taking a child and letting him grow up to be a mutated adult

then seeing dozens of space marines dying like in this game would be catastrophic, no? something you can only replace literal decades later
that's not to mention dudes like Varellus who was a veteran sargeant

and this is supposed to be happening all over the galaxy all the time.
people also said space marines are WAY weaker than they are portrayed in this game, like one marine won't be shitting on dozens of tyranid warriors or chaos marines like it's nothing

how is this meant to be sustainable? do they just have hundreds of these guys in reserve at all times? what about chaos? how do they replenish their marine troops all the time?
>>
>>498341253
Assault is not bad.
>>
>>498341953
Nah. Battles as bad as in SM2 are decades apart. Also the recent influx of primaris marines that have been in stasis since 30k has covered for a lot of loses.
>>
>>498341953
>how is this meant to be sustainable?
Because chapters have homeworlds with massive populations willing to die at just a CHANCE to become an Astartes.
Don't need to worry about having hundreds of guys in reserve when you have basically infinite aspirants and a good stockpile of geneseed
>what about chaos? how do they replenish their marine troops all the time?
Since Chaos geneseed is severely degraded, they conduct raids. Once they acquire geneseed from said raids, they typically get a useful/competent/excellent slave and geneseed them right up, hoping the slave survives the process to become a chaos astartes.
The Night Lords are known to recruit new astartes from promising slaves in the bowels of their ships.
>>
>>498341953
Those 1000 troops only count Battle Brothers

They don't count auxiliary forces like Techmarines (who also drive and pilot vehicles), Chaplains, Chapter Command, Apothecaries

Dreadnoughts can or may be counted out

When Girlyman approved the Primaris delivery the Chapters ballooned to a few thousand to replace losses
>>
>>498341953
There are always new aspirants being recruited, furthermore Space Marines are WAY stronger than they are portrayed in this game. One Marine WILL be shitting on dozens of tyranids like it's nothing (not necessarily the case against Chaos Marines obviously).
>>
>>498341953
chapters usually have at least one entire world reserved for their recruitment, there will often be a lot of downtime between major campaigns or battles, and it does often take years, decades or even centuries for space marine chapters to recover after significant losses
in the span of ten thousand years, a century or two isn't a long time
losing the two or three entire companies is considered pretty significant, losing half the chapter is catastrophic, losing under a company isn't that bad
>>
>Start up Space Marine 2 co-op

>>498341953
Codex Astartes does not count Scouts, Neophytes and Aspirants which could number into a few hundred or a thousand.

When Tyroneids attacked Baal the more experienced Scouts and Neophytes were turned into regular Primaris Muhreens while the battle was ongoing.

The transformation allowed Baal to survive a week longer for Girlyman and fresh Primaris Blood Angel troops to arrive.
>>
>>498341953
What all the other anons said, but also the fact that if your chapter gets too fucked up then it's just going to take some time for you to recover, and that means the Imperial Guard and PDF forces in the region are going to need to work harder for the next few decades.
And if you get REALLY fucked up then they might evict your whole chapter and replace you with a fresh one, focing you to give the new boys all your stuff.

>>498341953
>people also said space marines are WAY weaker than they are portrayed in this game, like one marine won't be shitting on dozens of tyranid warriors or chaos marines like it's nothing
there is a disconnect between the tabletob and fiction. space marines units are relatively "elite" in comparison to other standard units, but in written lore they are fucking demigods. it obviously depends on the author and on the character wearing a helmet or not, but generally this is true.
not that killing a billion gaunts isn´t silly. and 3 marines vs 1 carnifex or any other boss in this game is also pretty silly.

depends on the chapter. there are a lot of chapters that are constantly near extinction.
the marines errant for exmaple got their geneseed pissed on by red korsairs and some night lords & will probably never recover, despite being one of those chapters that was usually over strength. thats also a thing, some chapters are just not codex compliant and will be over strength in general.
whats more catastrophic is stuff like the red scorpions saying no to any stealth because thats for faggots, dropping in with 80-ish shocktroops into a eldar force, killing their leader, returning with 16, blasting time & recources on gathering the geneseed of the 60+ dead battle brothers and then claming total victory. but its funny.
but the imperium is one thing, chaos is even more retarded in that regard. legions like iron warriors still have ways to recruit or breed new marines, so it makes sense that they are operating on a military scale. but when you read stuff about the world eaters staring as early as 30k you constantly have to ask yourself how its possible that any of those retards are still alive 10k years later. all they do is kill & die, and its not like anyone is joining them.
>>
>>498342723
Their geneseed is fucked bigly
Their purest geneseed was stolen by the Alpha Legion and was never recovered
Their selection process is even more retarded compared to everyone else (aspirants need to evade a Raven Guard marine "hunting" them, getting caught means you're out)

The trains (or rather, the area around the train) deal AoE damage. Its pretty low, just so it can kill the low HP horde Gaunts (before they climb up to playable space Gaunts are fake and very low hp). It can drive over you and you'll lose maybe 1/4th of your HP.

So is this confirmed to work or not? I hate vague wording in games so much.

>shield bash does more damage
How much more, and how much does bash even do?
>dodge window is 50% longer
Ok but how long is it by default?
>Charged damage is increased
Ok but what is considered charge attacks?

To my understanding, heavy attacks are considered charge attacks. For example, thunderhammer has a perk that reduces ranged attack damage during a 'charged' attack, but it visibly appears during ground slam.
>>
>>498291130
How is any of this obtained? No perks? What about class bonuses? Distance?

There is an actual weapon damage table btw, fished from the games file. We can use that to elaborate on enemy's inherent damage multiplier to incoming damage
>>
>>498292092
It also has no headshot bonus, which means you dont have to be accurate with it.
>>
>>498306968
They said 'gunstrikes are easily spammable' which is absolutely correct. Just try using a knife.
>>
>>498336216
As anon said, it is a teamperk so it actually has insane value if you know for a fact that youre carrying noobs. Being revived at full health means that as long as youre scrounging for medicae (and actually finding them), you can essentially never have a mortal wound. You can even tactically kys when you have a medicae to get way more health back than you would using it normally. It still doesnt change the fact that its a misplaced perk though.
>>
>>498346694
I don't think this is questionable at all. Every melee weapon has at least one move that is just infinite gunstrike generator. Before free armor on parry constantly gunstriking minoris was the only way to keep alive (unless you were abusing the heal bugs).
>>
>>498346946
"misplaced perk"
Why? Bulwark already has it's own heals, Heavy is the only other class with similar support features. It makes perfect sense.
I know people want Apothecary to happen but I honestly think it's not happening, not anytime soon. There was that Dev forum but they haven't shown any signs of activity on it ever since before release so I'm assuming it was a publicity stunt and wouldn't take what's written there as real proof. Either way all they said is they liked the idea, not that they'll implement it.

Uh, yeah? One of the walkways has two buttons on it, you're supposed to press the one on the side gaunts are piling up against the charging train to get rid of them.
You can kill them manually, but I thought most people only know about the intended train method, not about doing it without the trains.
>The gaunts are fake?
The gaunts you see running in unreachable spaces during those defense segments are "fake", yes. They have much lower HP and most of their AI is gone, you can easily see this shooting them with weak weapons because every hit will always be a kill. They pile up at the walls and basically spawn real versions of themselves hidden by the mass of bodies. It's very obvious because shooting the mass at the bottom is always killing them but the ones slightly up on the wall have higher HP and need multiple shoots unless it's a headshot.
It's actually interesting the ones in the webm are real, I assume they either dropped down or there's some other system to change them into real ones, idk I haven't tested being down in those areas extensively yet.

Block needs parry, at least for minoris, but it actually has a perfect block window. This is how i think it works, if the trend is to be believed.

Balanced: startup (10 frames?) -> parry (10 frame) - > recovery (10f?)

Fencing: parry (20 f) - > recovery (10f)

Balanced: startup (10f) - > block (10f) - > recovery (10f)

The frame data is extrapolated from devs blog, last balance patch. The fencing frames are per the words of the devs (they nerfed it so that parry has 10 fewer frames during the recovery). Parry has no startup whatsoever from experience.

Balanced and block both have an animation for when youve been attacked during the startups, where you will block the attack but will recoil backward and sometimes take damage. This locks you into an animation for like 20 frames. When you 'parry' using a block weapon, you will notice that if you time it as if its a balanced weapon, you will get this 'block' animation that is very short. Thats the 'perfect block' animation.

Because its contending with two arguable even stronger team perks that always have value, regardless of the skill of the team. Reduced incoming ranged damage and 25% more ammo for the team plays perfectly into the role of what a heavy is supposed to do. You can either be a shield for the team (iron halo) or provide more ammo. It really doesnt make sense thematically for the heavy to have the role of an apothecary.

In the case of bulwark, it doesnt severely detracts from what he does, because its not exactly just team revive, but also a way to keep himself in the fight for a longer period. Its just an augment to his banner ability, whereas the heavy team perk introduces a whole new interaction for the team that, as powerful as it is, just doesnt make sense for him to have.

On a tangent, his perks that rely on teammates being downed or dead are just a waste of space. Relying on your team being bad or having a rough game is just not at all good, especially since the other contending perks are just way more consistent. The perk balancing needs to be reworked.
>>
>>498349695
I do, but it heavily depends on the weapon class. For example the knife has a very good variant that has big dick damage and speed, which means you can reliably avoid damage by dodge canceling. The thunderhammer is also ok. Everything else just avoid like theyre the plague.

Baffles me how block weapons actually have draw backs. Losing parry was already too much, and in some cases they even have lower speed or cleave??

These stats tell me that fencing exists only for people who's reflexes are too fast. If you have a delayed reaction to blue attacks you'll parry just fine with a balanced weapon. It figures that I never noticed a difference.
>>
>>498352596
What? Most of the time, you parry the instant the blue indicator shows up. Fencing weapons allow you to react later since there's little/no startup.
>>
Not being to dodge out of heavy stance is stupid. Its not even like there is a delay in being able to dodge if you manually toggle out, it just creates unneeded complication for the game to misregister the sequence of commands and your ass to get fucked. It already significantly curtials your peripheral awareness and movement, that is more than enough.
>>
>>498354009
See
>>498327709
I have my melee on Thumb Mouse Button, Aim/Heavy Stance on RMB and also set Aim/Heavy Stance to Hold, not Toggle in the settings.
If you need to dodge/block just let go off the RMB and it's instantly gone.
You can actually also flicker your Aim/Heavy Stance with every gun to get good accuracy without really slowing down. Pretty good for stuff like Multimelta in PvP (and PvE but it's not like it needs any help) too, since it's firerate is significantlly worse without Heavy stance but if you just press Heavy Stance and fire at the same time you get good firerate and still move around freely.
>>
>>498354662
And btw I agree it's kinda stupid that it locks you in such a way and the technique I described sometimes feels so broken that it has to be unintended, for the time being a simple controls tweak will improve how the game feels significantly, and I say this as a person who normally swears by toggle to aim.
>>
>>498354009
i used to cry about this but now i got used to it and just find it more engaging
>>
>>498349483
The start up frames need be removed and give you a small knock back with no damage dealt if you counter within those frames. Rename block to agile, it has the smallest perfect parry frames but buffs your dodging I frames. As it stands having the start up animation that can force you into a block is fucking awful in this game because it only takes on small enemy to hit you during start up to steal the parry from you that you intended for a majoris.

Space Marine 3 will have corruption mechanic with the canon ending being Titus truly corrupted by Chaos and Chaplain Leandros smiting him down and becoming a Reclusiarch for the Ultramarines.
>>
>>498361702
I think what they are going for is likely the same thing in Gaunt's Ghosts what with the freaking Emperor himself saying a Primarch can be redeemed. Titus is essentially a True Believer and he will wind up like other warp phenomenon and anomalies that are beneficial to the Imperium, always under watch and suspicion at best or exterminated at worst. Something gee dubs has been trying to do is make Chaos and the Imperium of Man appear to be two sides of the same coin. Like Chaos is supposed to be a dark reflection of sorts but they are just where all the genuine trash and garbage amongst humanity's kind winds up instead so it falls flat except for like the RPG book where you can be regular shmoe cultists an a mini-Eye.
>>
>>498361702
The secondary plot of SM2 was showing Titus that everyone who actually matters never doubted him for a second and was more pissed than Angron that he got locked up.
Hell, we even have a story taking place after Titus' abduction about an inquisitor showing up to take Tigurius into custody on suspicion of corruption and Cato simply tells him he won't survive the attempt and that the Ultramarines will take on the entire Inquisition if they don't learn how to act.
Guilliman's return tempered the hostilities, but the official position of the Ultramarines chapter after Titus was taken by Thrax was that the Inquisition is not welcome in Ultramar.
I guarantee you that if Calgar knew Leandros was responsible, he would have simply killed him on the spot. No words, no asking him to explain himself, just slamming his fist into the top of Leandros' head so hard that the fucker shits out his own skull.
>>
>>498360830
Yeah, but the balancing isnt quite there yet. If suggest trying the easier difficulties first with randos. Once youre comfortable with average try to post code here to have some fun. Imo average to substantial has the bigger learning curve.
>>
>>498355723
Imo block should be like fencing where startup is instant or close to instant, but has fewer frames (like maybe 7). Hate to bring souls game in here but that type of parry would be both interesting and challenging to have. Not only would parrying actually require decent timing, it would also be very punishing if you miss. Naturally, the weapon stats need to be drastically improved as well, as a baseline.

I don't mean it like that. Up until now typically what happened was either Inquisition went after First Founding or otherwise important chapter and were told to fuck off/disappeared (Space Wolves, Dark Angels) or they went after smaller fries and Ork Sniper'd them (Celestial Lions, Soul Drinkers), but all in all those things were mostly inconsequential and often swept under the rug.
With Guilliman around to slam the fist down while Inquisition still does the stupid shit they do (they are somehow still mad over Celestial Lions) there is a non-zero chance of a bigger, universal conflict.
>>
>>498364920
I pretty much never use fencing because i never needed that much help with parrying. Most of the time i just pick whichever has better overall stats, which happens to be balanced. Block is too weapon dependent though.

Hardly. Inquisition only has the power that is given to them. They do not have friends. They do not have loyalty. Like all cops, they only have the power given to them by the system with the trust that they do their job responsibly.

>>498365686
You know that scene from Halo 4, where the admiral tells a marine to arrest Master Chief and the marine just stands there for a variety of reasons, ranging from a greater respect for Master Chief than the admiral, to the fundamental knowledge that Master Chief did nothing wrong?

I get where you are coming from but cops as you know them don't exist in the Imperium so it kind of falls flat. Order a marine to arrest them? The Inquisitor in Space Marine is a nice guy by law enforcement standards and he brought an entire complement of Black Templars with him for the sole purpose of fucking Tidus's shit up and everyone around him if he so much as dared to say no. Hell the actual police, who enforce the law non-lethally, are an entire collective of Judge Dredd incarnate and they go in guns blazing first.

I think it would be pretty cool if Titus became the new chapter master, though. Lord Calgar is apparently a nothingburger in the lore. He's never done anything significant, and Guilliman returning makes Calgar less relevant.

Black Templars are basically conservative fanatics who just don't give a shit about anything else but going on an eternal crusade. Them showing up with an Inquisitor means they take the tip-off from Leandros seriously enough to give their support to Thrax.

If you do that to a First Founding Chapter, almost every other Chapter is going to back them up, plus the successors. Even if the Inquisition somehow wins, the Imperium as a whole would still be fucked, not counting in that if Lion or Girlyman go against them then it's just a beatdown.

>>498370118
Again probably not, but yeah the imperium would be fucked after such a conflict which is why they play nice for the most part and run ins with the inquisition are left to smaller scale things to just make the chapter the book is about look tougher and these are usually trash tier books. It wouldn’t be a somehow in an all out war scenario against the space marines though, the rest of the imperium would fold them because that’s why they’re structured like they are so a second heresy can’t happen.
>>
>>498370365
>Again probably not
Space Wolves already fucked them up once

They still won. Then, let's say Dark Angels, they are basically a full Pre-Heresy chapter because the successors are just them (but greener or white), nevermind the Dark Age shit they have.
Blood Angels have their successors + the Dead Legion.
Imperial Fists have a fuckton of successors that'll back them up.
Ultramarines is just lol, lmao.
The Inquisition could only probably beat White Scars, Raven Guard and Iron Hands (I don't know anything about the Iron Hands). And the Raven Guard would bleed them dry with guerilla tactics.

You mean the exact structure Guilliman has amended to be less retarded, nevermind shitting out fuckton of successors from Unnumbered Sons zoomer Marines that all would absolutely support Guilliman over High Lords. Sure, Navy got the big guns but all Marines have to do is off the High Lords and they would absolutely have means to break through blockade and drop on the surface.

None of this would happen, am I the only one who remembers that the Aryan son of god purged the high lords of terra and replaced them with guys explicitly loyal to him? The Inquisition can chimp out all they like, if Guilliman disagrees with their assessment, so too will the High Lords.
>>
>>498370648
The space wolves encounter should just be considered non canon because of how pants on head retarded it is. The inquisition isn’t a fighting force, they have the power to muster the full might of the imperium with cause. If they’re in full out war against a chapter that chapter is considered heretical and any chapters that side with them. The chapter structure keeps them isolated enough to be destroyed if need be to cause a little damage to the imperium. Yes space marines don’t give a fuck most of the time when some inquisitor comes poking around and the inquisition begrudgingly looks the other way when they disappear. But in an all out war what if? It doesn’t matter what chapter it is they now have to fight all mustered by the high lords because the people with the power to mark you as a heretic has done so against that chapter and are in all out war with them. If said chapter is in open conflict with the high lords other chapters will be against them because this is who they answer to. It would be a shit show and the imperium would be done for after the fall out if it did spread, but no my space marines would win because they’re really tough is stupid to say when they now have to fight the navy, the guard, the titan legions. The imperium isn’t fucking around with chancing another heresy, if the inquisition as an organisation has cause to destroy a chapter that chapter is getting destroyed. But that doesn’t happen because there’s not cause for one and they’re always portrayed as incompetent for two because there needs to be a lot of hand waving in these stories when you want to show of how amazing Wolfur Wolfkin is so you have him 1v10 the grey knights and an inquisitor. Oh damn isn’t he cool? Anyway no one ever asked about what happened there ever again moving on.

Doesn't matter. Yes how it went down it's cringe. But it's still in canon proof that no one except Chapters that are already friendly with the Inquisition would join their side. You also assume that the Inquisition would quickly deal with a non-successor Space Marine Chapter, which is stupid.

He is whatever he wishes you to see him as, however he is generally of non-descript race, as in, it isn't readily apparent if he is african, arab, anglo, nordic or what.

Would you say your sources of information are secondary? They didn’t call other astartes to wipe out the wolves they mustered a lager imperial navy fleet to destroy fenris, but got teleports onto your bridge behind you.
If the conflict was at the point that even successors are also being purged then it’s grown beyond the inquisition, now it’s the imperium against those chapters.

What is wrong with Ascension? It damages the gaunts around you, so when you land back on them again, you'll likely get enough refund for another charge to do it again.

Ascension AoE+ Ground Pound AoE + Ascension AoE + Gound Pound AoE + Ascension AoE + Gound Pound AoE = super teabag of doom.
It's a great combo to combat Assault's biggest weakness, which is crowd clearing (at least when playing power fist).

My problem with it is fucking barrels exploding around me when I take off and it seeming to trigger the krak bug a lot.

A little, I’ve been downplaying the grey knights and inquisitors forces. It wasn’t actually a space wolves victory.

That didn't feel natural. It was one thing for Gadriel and Chairon to be asian and black while Titus is white, but then we see the B team and it's the same ratio. And then we see the C team and it's the same ratio again. 3 times in a row. That was so unlikely as to be immersion breaking for me.

The shield is just nice to have when trying to close the distance to ranged enemies. Otherwise, you parry everything because the Bulwark's parry perks are busted, especially the one that deals damage around you. Stand in a horde and parry and everything dies.

Apothecaries aren't just healers, I can see a niche for them as a buffer/debuffer that can apply slowing and damaging poisons while administering combat drugs that increase the squad's fire rate, ability recharge, and melee attack speed.
>>
>>498392197
I just don't see an immediate need for Apothecary, desu. Chaplain seems the easiest to implement because Leandros is already in the game.
>>
>>498391952
>>498392197
Apothecaries aren't healers though. The only support they give is on spot adrenaline shots and ripping your geneseed out while they kill your crippled ass. I guess removing the timer for getting downed would be good or removing lethal wounds. Otherwise they come with a free built in lethal medical device as their melee.
>>
I hope they add more iron halos
>>
>>498392446
The status of the ops missions as being concurrent in time to the campaign missions would preclude Leandros from taking part, as he was doing other stuff at the time.
>>
>>498393629
I meant it as in, the model for the relic tier Chaplain armor is already there, so less work. And amending that is as simple as introducing the new Class with a new operation.

They are trained to provide medical care, though. Apothecaries have a lot of duties, which is why they're typically considered part of a chapter's overall command staff even if they're attached to, say, the 9th company.
Hell, a Dark Angels apothecary delivered a baby in one story.

Not even close. Using some videogame examples, 3 Primaris Marines taking out a Hive Tyrant after dropping a 250,000 ton statue on it is impressive, but conceivable. In other words it's like a B-Tier feat, maybe A-Tier. The Tyrant was more than half dead, limping, and had massive pieces of rebar piercing it.

In Chaos Gate Daemonhunters, 4 Grey Knights banish fucking Mortarion, a Daemon Primarch, on their own in single combat, with absolutely no crutches. GK are absurdly OP.

Daemon Primarchs are jobbers, even Tyranids and Warbosses are more formidable.

Every named GK has banished at least one daemon Primarch at least once in their career.

I can't think of a single positive contribution he made in that game

Bulwark and Heavy would get a lot more use out of their shields

>>498405987
Could a grey knight beat a loyalist primarch? Personally I feel like G man would stomp any grey knight, which makes them beating demon primarchs seem retarded.
>>
>>498406384
Unlike in SM2 there was only one Thunderhawk available since it was a ragtag undermanned unit of 3. Even Titus had to ride a Valkyrie to get from point A to B.

Leandros and Sidonus were flying solo and only fought alongside Titus sparingly.
>>
>>498406479
Gauss weapons and tau plasma would absolutely SHIT all over the trash we get shot at by at the moment, and that's on some of their most basic units
Fighting any of these factions would just not be fun with the gameplay we have

No, all the Loyalist Primarchs on the other hand are broken.

Even Girlyman who is the "weakest" of the bunch can receive Big E buffs to mog his traitor brothers.

GK is the product of that one Ultrasmurf lover wanking them off to the high heavens until one writer wrote an entire book of them getting shamed by another company favorite to bring them down a notch.

Ward made Crowe which basically makes up for Draigo though
And they were OP as fuck (in fluff) back when they were represented in the DH codex and Stern was their only character
But yeah ward wanked them, his worst transgression was slaughtering the sisters for literally no reason though, that was beyond retarded
I miss 3e daemonhunters...

>>498406521
The squad didn't split up so Leandros and Sidonus could go do other things. They split up due to being separated by the environment or so Titus could go be a distraction. The only objective the two NPC squad members do on their own is opening one of the doors for the titan, which was still at Titus' order. Leandros was just along for the ride the entire time.
>>
>>498406713
Oh also pretty sure Armageddon predates 5e GKs, that's back from when literally 99% of the population even knew chaos existed in the fluff, which was pants on head fucking retarded shit
Wards wank I'm almost certain comes after the space wolf wanking

I hate shit like this. A chapter of space marines larping as knights and specializing in hunting demons appeals to me but I could do without all the super special OC power level shit.

do we tell him?

This. I always Sidonus was busy playing nanny to Leandros, which is why Titus had to solo the entire thing. Fitting that once Sidonus died Leandros immediately started doing stupid shit.

They're just discount and rejected GKs

The only thing they don't have are GK-specific wards and weaponry

Funny enough they're more Thousand Sons than the actual loyalist Thousand Sons who are more inclined to perform larceny than actual sorcery/psyker stuff

>>498407168
What?
>>
>>498407430
you're missing crons.
>>
>>498407425
that's exactly what that anon wanted though?
GKs are supposed to be special, rare and mysterious spec ops boys, it was better when they were part of a wider Inquisition force rather than their own army though
GW tried to bring that back a bit but they just made it miserable, I wish imperial agents wasn't such a dog shit codex

90%+ of those units would pulp a whole unit of space marines without noticing.

Imperialfags really are delusional.
>>
>>498407927
A bunch of Necrons warriors alone, the shit low tier Necrons minoris option would literally liquify the player in seconds
>>
>>498408071
That seems unbalanced

>>498401106
Which chapters fit each class
>>
>>498408071
Necrons are especially delusional, but I blame it on there not being a Eldarfag equivalent in the thread to set things straight.
All of them except Orks would feel horrible to fight against.
>>
>>498406518
Nah. In reality, a single GK couldn't actually take a Daemon Primarch, unless it's Kaldor Draigo (Aka the GK Chapter Master) and even then there'd be some warp trickery. But that's only because Kaldor is a huge mary sue and his weapons are fucking broken and look retarded.

There's not really much of anything currently living in the setting that could 1v1 a Primarch in a fair fight. The only things that have, are
>Marines who were chosen by Chaos and only 'won' because of emotional bullshit; see, Luther
>Fuck-yuge Ork bosses that god strong enough to potentially destroy the whole galaxy (still lost)
>Other Primarchs
>>
>>498408779
Uhm sweetie, the lost primarch, our spirital liege, Kaldor Draigo, burner down the gardens of nurgle and single handedly btfo the chaos gods.
>>
>>498408631
Necron Warriors are taller than Marines, they fix sustained damage in seconds and a single shot from a Gauss Flayer is enough to melt a Marine in half. They'd probably still die to a Marine with proper melee weapons, but the issue is getting close in first place.
>>
>>498408779
Crowe in crunch used to have a 50/50 chance to kill any model (with 100% chance of killing himself) which was extremely based and funny
>>
>>498405987
angron, mortarion and magnus are jobbers
fulgrim is dangerous retard
perturabo is probably absurdly powerfull
