Great matchmaking experience Sabre, bravo. Yes I could run with bots, but that is boring.

IMO this is the continuing problem of class identity being too muddled between classes.

Techmarine should have been the stereotypical engineer character. He should have been about resupplying the team and providing automated cover fire. He only achieves half of that, because they already gave everybody perks to restore ammo, and Tactical the ability to restore people's grenades.

>>558796703
agree

>>558796703
Yet they still doesn't allow multiple classes in games. Not even allowing it only to <substantial lobbies.

>>558797175
According to the game director this would upset balance they carefully designed.

>>558797769
It's utter bullshit sure, what's more baffling is that they convinced themselves of their infallibility to the point where any suggestion much less a request is taken as soul crushing criticism.
>>558800385
iirc some the 'reasoning' behind locking class choice was also that they try to reflect the tabletop which is pure horseshit since you can damn well have triple bladeguards for instance and no one will bat an eye. I doubt even James Workshop would've opposed this since it's purely gameplay.

People have done the math.

The "receive 450 re-recorded voicelines" description for the Voice Pack literally refers to all the lines across the included languages, of which there is 7.

This is bordering on false advertising.

why do we even need balance in a casual pve game with crossplay? the numbers at the end of the mission are meaningless.

When using a chainsword, do i deal more single target damage with the double stomp or with just spamming light attack?

"Teolorian" is the new guy right ? The Techmarine ?

>>558807967
i think its faster to light light shoulder, you would get two shoulders in before the second stomp animation finishes

Techmarine is easy the hardest class to play
It's popularity will hit rock bottom a week from now

guys am i crazy or does the heroic knife make intimidating aura explosions on headshots instead of parries. or are the explosions some techmarine sheanenigens i am not aware of?

Not a fan of the new operation. Missing a big boss in the cathedral.

>>558808007
yup

They've completely broken the spawn rates. Absolute is actually unplayable right now, we're talking 12+ Warriors with ranged weapons at once alongside another dozen melee Warriors.

did they change how stims work? when i took one i slowly regenned white hp

>>558810289
It's a new stim type, it slowly refils your recoverable health, so best to take it before an engagement and wait for it to fill up in time for an execution.

they need to make bots stronger and farming in single player faster, you're too weak in a new account to play online and have fun

Are the servers on operations dying for anybody else? Even when playing solo everything is lagging right now.

They did add *some* clarification as to the shitstorm that ensued yesterday:

>Post-release note: We saw your feedback about the lack of armour option that the Techmarine currently has. Due to time constraints, we made the choice to focus on Techmarine’s gameplay rather on its customisation options. Rest assured, we will expand the armour options as part of future updates. The Techmarine will have access to various armour parts.

>Additionally, a hotfix is planned for next week, addressing various stability issues, as well as a bug soft-locking players in the bridge sequence in Disruption.

>>558808927
>>558809735
They knew people are going to farm and they made Absolute even harder

Just farm Ruthless

Deathwatch Techmarine ?

>finding the codes in the Imperial Guard camp on Inferno
>notice that Telorian doesn't have any generic mission lines and that one of the other marines will sound off when you search the bodies
What the fuck? Surely they had the budget to record some basic lines for performing certain actions.

>>558815064
He has no operation specific lines besides the new operation.

the prestige system is the biggest flaw of this game. i´m getting real tired of leveling mildly underwhelming difficulties instead of playing on absolute. and leveling on absolute will just make me mad when i fail a mission (aka losing progress)
the prestige system made ALL of my friends drop this game & they are 100% right

>>558805884
>dodge Assault
>leaps and bounds
lol

So, question
Does the servo-gun target the heldrake?

>>558815064
what's worse, some lines will not trigger at all, like the one that tells there's enough gaunts to activate the fire trap in inferno, you have to do this by sight, or let other players handle it (i couldn't because i was playing a gauntlet with level 1 players)

>>558817626
>implying i would be grinding techmarine in chaos ops

>>558807967
Chainsword enjoyer here. Double stomp is a meme and you shouldn't use it. Take the useless Rev up node to change your first heavy into a useless fucking attack that enables the best and quickest routes to shoulder check and stomp.

The big issue with double stomp is that the second one is too fucking slow and the first often knocks minoris it doesn't kill out of the range of the second.

>>558817626
Plasma version uses a ball targeting like Tactical's auspex, the sniper one probably has enough range to be able to hit it, but I haven't tested

>>558807967
>>558817931
But yeah. You want to route to shoulder check as much as humanly possible for single target, and if you're surrounded by majoris maybe try and go for the stomp but it's a risky move to go for. With the rev cancel you can fit stomp in under the adrenaline surge block window but it's hard to use otherwise.

>>558811331
i have bad news for you. it never gets fun, once you are piv lvl 25 with all gold weapons it just is a different type of miserable.

Sniper servo gun is insane, turns all Majoris and Extremis red

Plasma ball doesn't but nukes everything around said Majoris

>>558818435
Sniper servo is fucking hilarious
You get like 4-5 shots but it will incapacitate like 2 extremis enemies guaranteed

>invuln when operating a turret?
Or
>actual headshot bonus damage?

>>558820102
invulnerability on your first prestige slot and headshot damage on your second

>>558820102
I find invuln more fun since activating any turret you find kinda feels like half the point of the class.

the last techmarine team perk should also replenish one magazine of ammo along with regular grenades

>>558807967
Only use double stomp with the heroic chainsword. It's probably not as METUH as the block chainsword rev up combo skip but it is fun.

Anon we're talking about devs who were working on this new class for months, yet not once did anyone apparently even think to add some preset turret spots to Siege mode. The most unique aspect of the class isn't even fucking present in the game mode it'd make the most sense to be in.
>>558823660
Yeah the game is fun but it's in spite of Saber who have a history of making games with a fun base but then dropping the ball when it comes to supporting it properly.

I'm just gonna come out and say it. The people working on this game that deserves any praise at all, 9 out of 10 situations, are animations and graphics designers. You can definitely see some love in these aspects of the game even if they fuck up some textures here and there. The rest of the game unfortunately is at the whim of a DS loving vindictive asshole who thinks he knows better and who got shoes too big to fill.

That would also make sense. DRG/HD2 got it right in that its a limited resource you get sometimes.

Decapitating stratagem seems easier and more convenient, giving back 100% after a medium sized enemy is downed. But its a 90s cooldown, and that 100% return can be over kill if you already have energy left. Whereas Lethal Perimeter while more annoying gives a flat 50% reduction on all shots.

Which is better?

Partially true. Boss damage/extremis killing is the only thing he's good at

>>558841436
He has 1 viable build and if you don't do it you're basically fucked. You have to use the new relic grenade launcher so you have any level of horde clear on demand, you have to use the relic omni (with top row perks), you have to spam the charging attack to deal any damage (even point blank), and with any horde you have to be near a turret (preferably with the +ammo and invincibility perk) and with a boss you have to charge to apply omnis damage buff + grenade + increased damage from equipment + servo gun + main gun (with headshots) and you MIGHT deal a bit of damage. Still not better than a tact.

Its just a fucking bore. This weird meta gaming bullshit of health, armor, perks, passives, map conditions, ect ect ect boring boring boring.

His perks need work. A lot of his prestige perks are fucking insane. One of them makes you invincible for turret repair, which should just be a rule instead of even a non-prestige perk. Just like assault's iframe ground pound prestige perk...

The turrets are like noobtraps until you get that perk. By the time you make it safe enough to repair them, there's usually nothing for them to shoot, and you run passed them, and they go to waste...
Most of the time they just go to waste, because you can't place them yourself like literally every other game in existence with a turret character can do.

The omni axe feels like shit. Seems pretty strong danage-wise, but it has a really lame moveset.

The most crazy thing imo is how little you can customize him. You don't even get the bonding stud pauldron they forced bonding stud owners to reunlock. NOT even any of the brand new dlc cosmetics. The only thing you get that isnt default techmarine exclusive shit, is helmets, and there's still a bunch of them that're restricted for seemingly no other fucking reason than they probably rushed this shit out REALLY hard.

>>558809998
He was pissed you weren't in his FOV helping him kill his targets like you're his elden ring summon.

Now I might just be a skilless newbie, but it seems like the enemies for this week's hard strat are hitting way harder than they should for that difficulty level. Either there's a hidden modifier that makes them do like double damage or I'm just tripping. My friends and I have wiped 3 times and we're more confused than frustrated.

>two of three twitch reward drops are the same as last time
>the third reward is just blue triangles

>>558847913
Hard is harder than absolute. Just calling hard "hard" makes people think it's ruthless tier, but it's actually absolute+, even without any debuff modifiers.
Hard strat enemies are literally tuned with higher stats.

>Tell me you suck without telling me you suck

I literally am levelling my prestige through absolute with randoms using the fencing power sword, headshot bonus HBR and with the grenade+servo turret+headshots into bosses I am bringing them down to half health before a full reload. Most of the time the fight is over before I get to a turret which is always round the corner from where we are.

Even the knife on him is fine - the problem is too many of you would die on any character using non meta gear and even then you are clearly, routinely carried without understanding that you are.

Techmarine is not perfect, but its no where as shit as so many complain it is.

>>558854441
Sons of Medusa are popular because of Astartes, and also they're the only chapter I know of (besides the Iron Hands themselves) that don't have red Tech Marines, so they're appealing in that way.

Arguably no one HAS to be red. Just like arguably, you do not need to paint your apothecaries white. For me, the best painted apothecaries I have ever seen were only painted white on the helms and tabard, and were otherwise chapter colours underneath.

Not only does it take longer to load, there's a 50% chance to crash if you go down now. Very cool.

Its not just the bonding stud shoulders they relocked. I had all the weapon colours unlocked ages ago, and even did a round 30 push late last year to make sure they were.

This is now locked for me again. Which I only noticed because I was going to check it out with the Techmarine prestige headshots perk as an Iron Hand.

>>558856192
Says the fag describing a meta that doesn't exist, because he sucks at the game fundamentally.

SAD!

Techmarine is unable to use his Servo-Gun while carrying a Chalice. Also, they did not record a voiceline for him when he picks up a chalice, so a squad mate just speaks for him.

Cool.

he's low tier
like sniper he can deal with the small groups of ambients just fine but when 12 ranged warriors, 2 lictors and a ravener materialize in front of him he's got no good options for dealing with it quickly but unlike sniper he can't even invis for safety.
He's not far off from vanguard but vanguard also gives his entire team free HP sustain which means taking some damage while dealing with those random "fuck you" scenarios doesn't kill you. You can deal with everything but its not fun to do so until you get maxed out to do plasma-fire autogun shots

>plasma fire autogun shots
I really like the precision gun because I can just negate an entire extremis encounter.

>>558859690
it can but it can also just sometimes waste 3 shots into gaunts if you looked slightly the wrong way and limits his horde clear
if the gun was more responsive to turn on and off, or the precision just fired one shot at a time instead, i'd prefer it outside of levelling
also just checked, he has 2 melee steroids with the finisher one

Is there no way to turn off that new retarded giant glow after a headshot with tac/sniper?

Techmarine Prestige IV Lv25 = highest skill celling class, Onissaiah Axe is God tier melee weapon but not brainlet friendly, the ability to gunstrike for free is so bullshit it has to be nerfed imho, extremely fucking tanking and near immortal even with the turret perks and good playing skills

These bots are the worst most useless pieces of fucking dogshit I have ever seen in a video game. They can't even fulfil the bare minimum of drawing attention because the enemy AI is obviously geared towards prioritising the player, so you'll have multiple extremis overlapping their attacks on you while the bots are struggling to kill a horde of minoris. I hate them so fucking much, and I hate even more that I wouldn't have to deal with them if Saber weren't a mob of stubborn niggers who stuck to the arbitrary class restriction despite everyone predicting it'd be impossible to matchmake with players when the Tech Marine released.

Does techmarine lack the stalker and carbine because of some retarded tabletop equipment restriction or is it just a vindictive balance decision by saber?

is it too slow to grind stuff with bots instead of playing with people? assume difficulty 4

What do I do during the energy surge fighting the primes?

chains of duty is good, fires at max rpm every time you enter heavy stance immediately and makes use of the damage over 50% heat. good synergy with the retribution's bequest, too. strong gun for gun strikes which also cool the chains.

>>558863810
mostly retardation, generally they're supposed to be rocking higher tech combi-weapons like combi-gravs or combi-plas but since the only combi weapons are on the shittiest bolters there are its purely to make him not function as a real ranged class

>>558863810
I don't know why techmarine have auto bolter rifle when heavy bolter rifle exist?

I meant, what purpose does an ABR have to offer over an HBR and carbine?

I keep getting disconnected and this retarded game and it kills my mission progress, fucking jews

>>558863810
They'll add it to the tech in a later patch and call that "content".

On top of random turrets I think instead of having grenades tech should have a turret they can place, can only hold one, picking up grenades gives you a single turret instead. Then change all of the grenade perks to turret perks. Could even be a weaker version with a single gun.

>spent last 20 minutes quick match -> return to barge loop because i dare to wanting playing techmarine

i just love when the game randomly picks the wrong direction to parry
also love when it crashes for no reason

What fucking time constraints? They make their own damn roadmap and set the dates themselves. Maybe stop making fuckton of other shitty games only a handful favela residents play in between drive-bys. Vatniks are truly smoking some hard shit.
>Rest assured, we will expand the armour options as part of future updates. The Techmarine will have access to various armour parts.
Cool, I'm waiting for the moment I'll have to grind more wins to unlock new pieces because 'heee heee it DID say each set need X number of wins!".

The occulus carbine headshot version feels so good to use, such a shame that the two classes that can use it can’t regen ammo. Without ammo regen you’re dry after a big fight, really wish it was on sniper and tac. So far it seems like the new HBR with a plasma or inferno pistol are the best guns to use on tech, still not sure which melee weapon is best. The new heroic knife is very strong and you can confirm a level one shadow strike with the auto gun strikes. Balanced power axe deals very nice damage, power sword whirl spam is safer with the auto gun strikes. Big axe feels a bit clunky but the damage on the balanced one is alright. Just wish they would make balanced weapons have no start up frames on parry but with half the active frames, the delay feels awful and gets you frame trapped.

>>558867286
I don’t think tech will be getting any new armour, just access to all of the class agnostic stuff they should have access to.

What is a riposte in the context of the new heroic knife?

melee is too weak, the game needs to stop trying to be CoD and buff melee already

>>558867464
Perfect parry deals damage to the guy you parried, kinda like Bulwark's perk. It's basically best in slot on tactical for general use imho.

i dont really understand the omnissian strike after the rush. sometimes it does 1, sometimes 2, sometimes 3, i obviously get that it depends on distance but its really inconsistent. sometimes i travel max distance and just do 1 strike. the final shockgrenade perk also seems to override the 3times strike, always only does one. also 15second cooldown seems like a wrong tooltip, it happens once every blue moon.

>>558831073
Shouldn't those be organically spawned?

>>558867464
on the pts it did ~12% of a nid melee warriors life and auspex applies before the damage, so its about 25%. its best in slot for tactical, probably for forever.

>>558867551
i disagree

>>558866676
The best one is where you get dumped into a mission as a random character.

>>558868347
The heavy bolter is perhaps the worst heroic so far.

>>558868738

>>558864002
Play Ruthless Inferno

>>558868348
You have to hold the button down until the stabs go off by them self, if you let go and tap the button you’ll only do one. Very awkward feeling

Is it me or have they widened the Zoanthrope's beam? Not physically but the hitbox seems to get me even when I dodge the bea,

>>558869720
The beam genuinely needs reworked. The further you are away from the Zoan, the exponentially harder it become to dodge. The window for dodging turns into tens of milliseconds at the furthest distance.

Ruskies don't understand speed in relation to a pivot. I'm sure they'd understand if I whipped them.

>>558866676
>i dare to wanting playing techmarine

What's servo-gunstrike damage dependent on? Equipped secondary or is it just a set value?

>>558859493
>he has one melee steroid
Nigger, what the fuck are you talking about. He has 3

>>558870256
Difficulty AFAIK

Strongest gunstrike in the game.

power sword feels way better than the omni axe its unreal
you can just melee into swarms regularly and get infinite armor back because the base knockback gives you gunstrikes, no slow ass initial melee or weird set up shit or awkward charging

>>558870731
He seems like he'd have great synergy with assault with how dependent on gunstrikes he is.
But that's just a theory because I haven't been able to play with anyone as techmarine for days.

>>558870256
>>558870731
To add, each different type of shoulder gun has the same gunstrike damage however the plasma has AOE.

Even majoris under certain circumstances ignore slots.
Slots are not reliable in any scenario more intense than a couple majoris and nothing else attacking you.

>>558872063
The parry damage is almost as much as a gunstrike, very strong. It’s high base damage let’s the shadow strike hit pretty hard too. Also it looks great

>>558871261
Plasma + zoning passive is great. Gives you a lot more shots and isn't that much more work than just pressing one button. Plus the 100% regen often fucks up anyway.

>>558872063
Anything that is damage on parry is going to be busted as fuck. My only regret is that Bulwark can't use the knife as well so we could one tap everything.
