That thing needs a total rework. It just looks like a furry helmet no matter how you dress it up. Even if it were to get a hooded version like mk6 and 7 are getting soon.
The snout is just too bulbous, making the whole helmet look too Hanna Barabara.

It's hard strat with different modifiers. You unlock more modifiers as you level up.

>>3054908
So absolute

>>3054910
absolute has easier scaling

>>3056357
Normal absolute players can get thrown in with crucible runs. I’m at rank 5 and I’m tempted to just cheese it mode is artificial difficulty

>>3056357
why leave? am i missing something? i played crucible on one class until level 2 then just used the cheat engine table
fuck the pointless grind

>>3056872
playing through the first area should be enough to tell if someone is a shitter or not. Since every crucible game has to be played from the start to finish, if you see someone is not pulling their weight it's best to cut your losses and leave immediately rather than get wiped 20 minutes later.

>>3056660
Yeah it's actually really good, still sucks cock you have to basically steal all the Extremis executes to stay ammo equal/positive, even with getting 4 shots back from Majoris ranged Kills

>>3056660
It was never bad anon

>>3057395
It was extremely ammo inefficient, it's alot better now

>>3057458
Not really. If anything I’d say the economy got worse, especially on the non ammo versions. It’s a nice buff to the ammo variant specifically when the barrel is clipping with the enemy but from the testing I’ve seen the damage is the same or worse as it was before after the pathetically short in game 5m

I just finished the storyline, and I can't see any of these perks under any of the classes at the Armouring Hall in PvE mode.
Am I missing something?

>>3067142
Campaign and PvE (Operations) is a separate mode.

>>3067142
Oh and those perks are prestige perks. They unlock at max level.

>>3067155
I was aware of that part
>>3067161
This is the part that I was unaware of. Is it possible to get all the other perks or will I have to choose some to never get? They really don't explain anything about Operations/classes.

>>3067169
>Is it possible to get all the other perks or will I have to choose some to never get?
There are 6 prestige perks and you are able to pick only 4. Each class has about 1 or 2 that feel really important before they get less important.
>They really don't explain anything about Operations/classes.
Yeah they haven't been good with informing new players in the slightest.

>>3067198
Additional questions:
1. Is it possible to get all of a class' normal perks or will I have to pick and choose those as well?
2. Is there a purpose to completing the trials aside from the yellow circle currency?
3. What are the best ways to grind for the blue triangles and yellow circles?
4. Is there any common etiquette that's easy for new people to miss?
Apologies for dumping them all on you, Anon.

>>3067238
>1. Is it possible to get all of a class' normal perks or will I have to pick and choose those as well?
You can unlock them all but each vertical row can only have one perk picked from them.
>2. Is there a purpose to completing the trials aside from the yellow circle currency?
No real purpose aside from the only tool tips the game will give you about your class so it's not 100% useless if you're starting out.
>3. What are the best ways to grind for the blue triangles and yellow circles?
Blue Triangles can be won through Stratagem Mode which are missions with conditions. Normal Stratagems are Substantial Difficulty (Difficulty 3) while Hard Stratagems are Absolute Difficulty (Difficulty 6). They're one of the hardest pieces of content the game offers. Hard Stratagems are actually tougher Absolute difficulty games with more damage taken/less damage dealt on-top of mission conditions that will either hinder you or help you in some way.
Blue Triangles can also be earned through playing PvP and getting like 30 kills weekly and doing Siege (Horde) Mode. There's an interact-able lectern you can check Horde/PvP Mode triangle gains by the Hangar/Mission Deployment area.
>4. Is there any common etiquette that's easy for new people to miss?
Lemme write a separate post for this.

>>3067238

>>3067261
>>3067253
Thanks, and that's a fair point.
Are the research options in the datavault ultimately just for specific cosmetics?

>>3067238
>>3067253
>Common Etiquette
There's a handful
>1. Don't throw a frag grenade at your teammate to help them
Grenades do not cause friendly fire to teammates but they WILL stagger them and make them potentially eat avoid-able damage. Just provide covering fire with your ranged options instead of throwing a grenade.
>2. Don't hog resources
Unless it is abundantly clear someone is a liability, share medkits and Relics to whoever needs them. Prioritize giving ammo to the ranged classes and armor reinforcement to Snipers and Vanguards
>3. Use your medkit
White medkits restore a fixed amount of health while red medkits restore a larger amount over time. Both can heal a Wound debuff on you if you went down. It does involve healing at the point where using said medkit will heal you to full so be careful with a red medkit.
>4. Don't hog executions
If someone is dueling an enemy, don't swoop in to execute that enemy. Pay attention to your team's HP bars and if they have a white outline around them to indicate if they have armor of if you're more used to it, see if they just took damage. For the latter case, they'll want to regain contested health and executing an enemy will just do that. If you were to take it instead, they'd lose all of that recoverable health. Armor can mitigate a lot of damage so letting someone regain armor is also helpful in keeping them alive.
>5. Have a Team Perk Equipped
Each class tends to have one team perk that's pretty much better than the other two they have available. This doesn't matter too much in lower difficulties but end-game content involves using that meta team perk. Prestiging resets levels so a bunch of idiots run around with no perks or team perks equipped so make sure to not forget

I am mostly likely forgetting something so if anyone else wants to chime in, please do.

>>3067169
>>3067161
>>3067142
you level to 25 to unlock Prestige 1

you can do this to prestige up to 4 times

this means to TRULY max out a class you actually have to level to an effective level of 150

every prestige grants a prestige perk
a lot of the prestige perks are very minor
some are almost worthless
some are amazing

some examples of really good ones
>Sniper gets one that grants 2s of invulnerability upon activating cloak, making them the safest class in the game (an ability that already clears aggro and can heal back all CHP and clear status effects)
>Techmarine gets +25% melee damage for 5s after a gunstrike (Techmarine has a unique gunstrike mechanic where he can still perform them while doing other shit, so it's way easier to pull them off)
>Assault gets Hammer of Wrath and Unyielding Oath (these are amazing, but Im feeling too lazy to go into detail)
>Vanguard gets one that restores 1 armor every time he grapels something (which is something youll be doing every few seconds with the right build) as well as free armor for multikilling every 15s
>Bulwark gets one that restores ability by 1% for every shot blocked with his shield (extremely valuable on a class who can have up to a 3 minutes ability cooldown)
it's definitely worth it go for the prestige perks

but first things first
you need to get some widely available weapons maxed out ASAP so that you can comfortably take a level 1 class into Absolute

>>3067238
>3. What are the best ways to grind for the blue triangles and yellow circles?
weekly stratagems
weekly siege

>>3067312
>you need to get some widely available weapons maxed out ASAP so that you can comfortably take a level 1 class into Absolute
What do you mean by widely available weapons, don't we all just pick what weapons we bring?

>>3067334
Certain classes cannot take certain weapons as there are class exclusive weapons.
However, there are a handful of weapons that a number of classes can share so take for example a Bolt Pistol sidearm. I think every single class can take this as a sidearm so it can naturally become very easy to level over time. So you level up a class using the bolt pistol and get it to gold rarity. Then you can take that gold rarity pistol and use it on another class you haven't leveled yet and have a decently beefed up weapon to clear levels more quickly. The same applies to melee weapons that are shared between certain classes.

>>3067334
>What do you mean by widely available weapons, don't we all just pick what weapons we bring?
I mean weapons that are shared by classes

ALL classes get the Bolt Pistol and Heavy Bolt Pistol

Knife is shared by 4 classes, and Sniper can ONLY equip knife
Power Axe is available on 5 classes
Chainsword is available on 4 classes
Bolt Carbine is available on 3 classes
Heavy Bolt Rifle is available on 3 classes

but something like Power Fist? thats exclusive to Bulwark and Assault
Bolt Sniper Rifle? only for Sniper
Flamethrower? only for Tactical

long term you'll end up leveling everything else faster if you can max out some mostly universal weapons in order to make leveling go faster later

BY FAR THE BEST CHOICE FOR FIRST CLASS TO LEVEL IS TACTICAL
by far
>has access to primary ranged weapons that are shared by every other class that gets a primary
>shares a melee with ever other class
max out Tactical first and move on from there

ALTERNATIVELY you could start on Bulwark or Assault, but I would not recommend it
>t. started out by maxing out Assault and suffered

>>3067357
What's wrong with starting out with Assault? I really like the jump pack and thunder hammer, and desu I did most of the Campaign with melee weapons

>>3067373
>>3067357
I see the issue now, only 3 of the 7 classes use the thunder hammer. Damn.

>>3067373
>What's wrong with starting out with Assault?
learning the real game (coop Absolute is the real game) with no primary is pretty punishing
Assault is also just about the most high skill ceiling character in the game, except for maybe Sniper
and until certain perks are unlocked, it's significantly more painful (namely Unyielding Oath prestige and the level 23 perk Zealous Blow and the level 25 perk Commitment)
the less time you can spend an underleveled Assault the better
also youll be starting with a grey unleveled primary weapon when you choose to level a class that isn't Bulwark after finishing Assault

actually I have a tangent about Commitment and leveling Assault
Commitment is THE key to the build that lets you use Assault's dash as it was meant to be used
this playstyle doesnt exist without this perk
so if you are leveling assault all the way to max prestige, then you wont get to play a single mission with this fundamental perk until youve leveled up 149 times
Wings of Flame + Commitment lets you dodge everything with ease while shitting out crazy damage
very high skill, high risk, high reward gameplay
AND YOU CAN'T START LEARNING IT UNTIL YOUVE MAXED ALL THE SHIT OUT (assuming you want to max it out)
this is part of why I'd want to spend as little time leveling Assault as possible

dont get me wrong
Assault is fun
Assault is so much God damn fun
most fun in the game at its peak
but I would not reccomend leveling Assault first

>>3067399
and until the last patch it was only 2 classes

>>3067407
>>3067373
at least on Bulwark you can make up for not having a primary to kill stuff at a distance by having a shield to protect yourself from ranged spam

if a Zoanthrope or Neurothrope spawns and you're Assault, you are USELESS against them if you don't have the right set up (stacking several ranged damage boosting perks)

>>3067407
>>3067422
Is team composition much of a thing/concern?

>>3067424
I think the only time it really becomes a concern is the 4th PvE mission where the end boss can only be damaged through ranged damage but most of the time a competent enough squad can get by without the heals of a Bulwark or a Vanguard.

>>3067424
you have very little control over it as a solo player
you get what you get and work with it

certain classes are a Godsend to have around though because of certain perks or setups
>Vanguard with a team perk that heals 30% of your HP for anyone who executes an Extremis or Terminus
free heals
amazing to have around since Absolute has so many more extremis
>Bulwark gets a perk that makes his banner MAX OUT your CHP so if he pops banner as you perform an execution, youll get healed back to full health
this perk makes that prestige perk I mentioned that restores 1% cooldown on blocking a ranged attack so valuable, because the healing banner also raises your cooldown by 50%
>Sniper who isn't dogshit and has the Heroic Bolt Sniper Rifle
one shots Zoanthropes on absolute
one shots Nid warriors on absolute
RAPES Neurothropes
constantly shitting out crazy damage (as long as he doesn't miss)
having a good sniper can basically guarantee that you won't wipe
>Tactical gets Secure Stockpile
best team perk in the game
better than Vanguards healing perk
if you equip any other team perk as Tactical you are either stupid or don't know any better
having more grenades available throughout a mission can be the difference between victory and defeat
the damage boost from Auspex is also just great to have around for extremis and bosses

every class is good
there are certainly classes that I would choose of others if Im playing a certain build
like if I was playing Assault or Vanguard I would want to have a Sniper for taking out annoying ranged enemies

oh and one more thing
ANY CLASS THAT GETS A PERK THAT RESTORES GRENADES SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE IT EQUIPPED 100% ALWAYS
>Vanguard can create a free grenade for themselves every 90s
>Tactical gives everyone a free grenade every 90s
>Sniper can get themselves a free grenade every 30s (absurdly effective if you have a pyreblaster canister)
>Heavy can get a free grenade for themselves every 90s

>>3067424
>>3067480
oh and I forgot about Techmarine who can restore a grenade every 75s

Techmarine also has several perks which make grenades better
> +50% grenade damage
> enemies hit by grenades take 25% more damage for 10s
> +15% grenade radius

this means that a Tactical with Secure Stockpile is a Techmarine's best friend for life

>>3067480
>>3067494
What makes grenades good/useful?

>>3067591
Frag grenades can soften up crowds
But it's stuff like Krak Grenades and Melta Bombs that can really eliminate priority targets and or multiple of them

Should I follow the game's suggested difficulty to class-level ratio, or will people not be bothered if I play on Average/Substantial before my I'm level 5-10? I'm not the best by any means, but the people that backfill into my games on Minimal are an actual detriment if for no other reason than the fact that they AFK before each assembly point

>>3067607
You should play a game of Substantial/Ruthless to get a team perk, then stay in Ruthless/Lethal if you cannot handle absolute.
The more important aspect is your weapon. You need a relic/heroic weapon so you ain't dealing 0 damage (one of the most retarded aspect of the game).

>>3067632
How good should my weapon be in order to play Substantial/Ruthless?

>>3067657
Relic or heroic. But I guess you gotta start somewhere. You don't want to be grinding forever so you can probably scrap by with green weapons if you use a good weapon. My advice is to focus on one universal, good weapon shared between classes you play and buy heroics to level other weapons.

>>3067668
Does buying a heroic weapon let me skip grinding weapon levels?

I-I wanna dress as a Luna wolf…….

>>3067673
You skip needing to level weapon EXP to access an acceptable weapon with okay stats but you will be lacking in weapon perk points that you get by leveling individual weapon variants. It's a bit of a hassle but you can spend research data points to just max them out as you unlock a new tier and then max them out with points and continue using a heroic.

being delegated to a glorified Gunstrike bot really made me fucking loathe that faction even more

on a related note, can they just enable Versatile Precision for the HBS already, only having 7 bullets that you can't regen with all the shit that can fuck over your headshots is infuriating

>>3067780
>>certain map parts just delete your bullet if they cross over a threshold
wait, what?

>>3068141
WWZ has the same problem but you rarely notice it in either game because of the ranges of engagement
But there are some very specific annoying map tiles where it can happen still, ESPECIALLY if you use a sniper

What guard style do you run with wings of flame builds on assault

>>3068770
If you're going to be dodging instead of parrying for gunstrike damage, you might as well go Block

>>3064666
Guess we're going back to Kadaku.
Bets on if this mission will actually take place after the campaign or not?

I want to make some really stupid music videos focusing on certain chapters. Who would be interested in running custom strats with the 12 player PvE mod so I can record footage?

Having unlimited melta bombs is fucking boring. I play the game because I want to fight things, not because I want to run to the end

>>3069791
Sometimes I can't fucking fight things in front of me when 7 warriors are drowning me with barbed strangler pods and devourer volleys.

I've been using the Volkite pistol a lot more these days as my sidearm.
>Cut a swathe through mobs of cultists

It's gunstrike is still kinda mediocre, right? Or did it get buffed a while back? I can't remember.

>>3069809
Why would you need a melta bomb for that

>>3069883
Run into the enemy firing line, drop bomb, and then duel melee mobs in peace.
Or get rid of melee mob and then pray for hardcover against enemy covering fire.

>>3069890
Yeah, I didn't ask how to do it, I asked why you specifically need a melta bomb instead of killing them normally

>>3069903
nta but
>pretending you havent been stuck with like 10 ranged nidders that all spread out and completely cover your entire area in junglejizz
no idea why it has to be melta bomb though, maybe for clearing the melee warriors AND the bramble

>>3069903
How am I going to do any consistent melee damage or even gunstrike if I'm taking ranged damage every second?

>>3070033
By running down the ranged nids? Chaining executions? Throwing frags to stun the things you're not currently fighting? Moving somewhere else?

>get blasted by rockets that didnt give you a BING

>>3075033
This is exactly just one of the many reasons bulwark will be the superior melee class

>>3075041
Well no, that's the point
Bulwark shines when enemies actually attack him, Assault is free to shit on absolutely everything by playing hyper aggressive, while the jetpack still lets him dash for defense
Bulwark doesn't have that leniency, he gets peppered too much he slows down to a crawl

>>3075054
Except that unlike assault bulwark has a FREE gapcloser that isnt reliant on the games buggy coding and lag to work properly.

I've ran Inferno hundreds of times and have only gotten a boss spawn in the final segment 3 times. But when it's this fucking weekly stratagem in particular, I've gotten it multiple times in the final section. Game loves fucking with me.

>>3075090
If you're talking about Shield Rush, you gotta use a literal exploit to use it to its full potential so it's kinda reliant on the buggy coding

>>3076424
A melee weapon

He’d fuck pretty hard with a power fist. I hope that assuming the IF champion 2 is Tor Garadon inspired that they could be opening gravis captain type loadouts to heavy sometime this year, since aggressors aren’t all that likely to come

>>3076424
Multi-Melta or Flamer.
No idea how you can iterate on the flamer
The regualr melta's heroic is godawful
The dream is for the Heroic Multi-Melta to function like a block weapon or have its alternate fire be a long range armor piercing shot.

Realistically speaking, any new enemy they add will be annoying.
So they should add Pink Horrors as another Chaos Majoris enemy and they split into two smaller Blue Horrors.
Hell, you can go a bit further and add Flamers as another Extremis.

Just shooting into the horde on Decapitation was enough to do all 3 tiers of that Ultragrind Ordeal kek

I'm convinced this is literally impossible to complete outside of the hunted modifier. I've started shooting at lictors before an indicator even appears and they still manage to get a pounce off instead of dropping off the wall like the unkillable lictor does the moment you sneeze at it.

>>3079375
how do you do this?
spot and then one shot it with a bolt sniper rifle?

>>3079375
If you truly wish to see it done, just go to the campaign mission where you fight a lictor in the jungle and repeat it.
I've never been able to shoot a lictor down in Operations before it leaps.

>>3079375
It's doable, if one sits around within range when you're holding a melta weapon you can splaff it. That requires using melta weapons and a quick reaction to a one in a hundred occurance all at once though.

>still cant recolor the hoods on Sniper because hood color is now tied to tabard color for some fucking reason
incredible stuff

>>3079375
Campaign mission 5, I think. The one where you meet Chairon's buddy.
There's a section near the beginning where you advance past the guard position to move on a neurothrope, and there's a scripted lictor encounter. It always spawns on the wall directly across from the elevator entrance, so just look for the eyes and shoot it before you walk down the corridor, then return to the battle barge and drop back into the mission again. It loads you at a checkpoint 30 seconds from the encounter.

>>3079375
Load Servant of the Machine at the point where you have to ride the elevator, and shoot the scripted one off the chain until you unlock it

>>3079435
I happened to be charging a heroic plasma pistol shot right as a lictor spawned on the wall next to me in a match of normal siege, not even hard mode, just normal. Not even that was able to prevent it from pouncing, so it's almost certainly impossible to knock them down outside of the methods the other anons brought up. Leave it to Saber to make what should be a challenge you complete incidentally just by playing the game an exercise in tedium of constantly repeating the same section of a campaign mission.
Also goddamn most people suck at this gamemode.

I havent started the grind yet because I dont have every class maxed out

also not even sure Im going to do it for more than 1 class because the reward is kind of lame, and that's as someone who likes the Lamenters

this mode shouldnt exist, and we should have gotten an hour and a half long RAID mission instead with multiple bosses

>boss 2 is a Trygon with an additional gimmick

put a cool armor set behind that

>>3085095

Because ECR just isn't the same. You will know pain to equal mine.

>>3091105
The only reason I was interested in it was because they were pushing the "It'll be Planetside 2 but 40k" and in the end it just looks like they took SM1's multiplayer and expanded it. Glad I missed it

>>3091165
It was always a dogshit game and i'm mad because those faggots lied tho.

>>3091168
SM1's multiplayer outlived it, sadly.
>>3091169
Look, if you guys were actually PS2 but 40k, you probably should have read the room based on how dogshit PS2 was in the first place as a sign things weren't going to be delivered in that way

>>3091182
Still a dogshit game. SM1 was better. Hell i'd argue SM1 is better than 2 in quite a few ways.

>>3091192
Saying it wasn't as good as SM1 doesn't actually amount to much. Yeah, no shit SM1 was better, it was an average game in an era where video games weren't bottom of the barrel slop. I'd still take Eternal Crusade over ECR or even SM2's soulless primarisified movie marines and rollslop garbage, and if you say otherwise then frankly I'm convinced you're just arguing just to be miserable and contentious. Sure, it was slow and clunky (at least as long as you weren't playing Eldar) but it actually functioned as a game instead of just a MAU treadmill for Focus to show its investors.

>>3091216
I never tried ECR and i don't care about it. Space Marine 2 is pure slop that would have bombed HARD if it wasn't for the 40k franchise saving it, so you're right about that.

>>3091224
Then why be a pissbaby over someone else having nostalgia for EC in the first place? Yeah, it didn't deliver on what you apparently had envisioned for it in your head, but it still was a damn sight better than the options we have today. I'd rather have how far we've fallen plastered on the walls then pretend every step of the way back aside from the beginning was worthless.

>>3091246
>Yeah, it didn't deliver on what you apparently had envisioned for it in your head
It wasn't in my head, that's what the dev promised to deliver. Don't care if it was realistic or not, or if it was ever gonna be good or not.

>>3091260
No, it was in your head. As someone who put over a thousand hours into PS2 out of loyalty to PS1, it would have to be for you to even desire them to follow through on the promise of PS2 but 40k. PS2 was a shitshow with nightmarish netcode, terrible balance, horrendous hit detection and some of the worst game design I have ever seen. You didn't want them to deliver on PS2 but 40k, you wanted them to deliver on the image of PS2 but 40k you had in your head.

>>3094436
Fuck no.
When the patch initially dropped the charge actually staggered bosses but it NO fucking damage.
With the first hotfix, the damage was increased but the stagger effect was completely removed (with plans to add it back later) so now it did a single digit amount of damage higher and had no stagger built in so it was even worse off.
This latest hotfix increased its already pitiful damage numbers again

>>3094499
Consequence of devs playing on difficulty 4 (lower enemy HP + no inherit -15% to -26% damage debuff).

>>3094555
No weapon's light attack should require 4 swings to kill a gaunt.
The 1H Hammer is actually a worse weapon than the fucking Heavy's stock bash.

the other classes are no where near as fun as assault
