I'm tired of hearing Assault is the weakest class (Its actually OP)

Vanguard mains when they realize that Assault actually has the best movement tech: 😮
Just don't be suicidal with the melee slam and set yourself up for success

[@Mr_Big_Head]

No one is saying it’s weak in pvp they are saying it’s weak in pve

[@koiunhscx126]

yeah in pve its dogshit

[@Mr_Big_Head]

@@koiunhscx126 only against chaos maps. It’s pretty strong versus tyranid maps but not until you are maxed and the weapons are maxed. It’s rough leveling assault

[@MacTave141]

@@Mr_Big_Head you just said its not weak meanwhile you also said its shit till its max lol

[@Mr_Big_Head]

@@MacTave141 yeah what’s not to get it not good early but is good once’s leveled. Once you get the perk that recharges your ult with ult kills and armor regen on gunstrike and a fencing weapon and it becomes quite good. I mean sniper isn’t very good either early on but when it’s leveled it’s great.

[@IronSquid501]

@@Mr_Big_Head no shit man, every class is good when maxed. Unlike the Assault, though, most classes are also good well before they're maxed. >Vanguard does the exact same thing as Assault but can pack a primary weapon, and has far better perks >Bulwark is nigh unkillable and essential to team survival when brought, even at level 1 >Heavy and Tactical can both easily carry the game with their DPS from level 1 with the right weapons >Sniper can two-shot-to-execute almost any enemy in the game from level 1 There's literally nothing special or even good about PVE Assault, it's dogshit in every regard, and if you're good with an assault you're still better off just picking another class that you can actually impact the game with

[@zxaoks1090]

Assault marine more like bolt pistol marine lol

[@KenobiStark1]

PvE is harder until you level it up, I love doing PVP as Assault though. But they just gotta improve the jet pack a bit in the operations and it should even out.

[@Anxta117]

you know they screwed up the melee in pvp when the melee class has to use his sidearm to get all the kills

[@coltonbellamy2742]

No, use the hammer and I’m at the top a lot of the games. The issue is knowing when to use it. You can’t push an entire team from the front and expect to not die immediately. Maybe melee can use a tiny buff but it’s really not as bad as ppl are making it out to be. Hitting both parts of the hammer charge on players is a kill 90% of the time. You just have to know when to do it.

[@rmw9420]

for the people who do like the ooga booga hit you with big hammer play style: Get a battle buddy and have them go assault and play together at all times. doing a ground pound strike in combination with your team mate is enough to kill most classes almost instantly

[@orclord5719]

Most people are drones. They want to push, even when they could flip spawns or even dying. The slower and more back you play, the better your chances. Don't push a 2v1 if you don't think you can kill both. Leave if you kill 1 and can't get the 2nd.

[@Fourger14]

Bro out here dominating when I don't even know how to hover without aiming my gun.

[@wakofanboy6801]

press the sprint button, you'll float without aiming

[@Coldsealion]

Awesome positioning!

[@rodrigokiwi2]

I love videos that answer a question completely out of context.

[@sb17899]

i've noticed this too, that certain assault players that know how to play can absolutely dominate. biggest mistake you can make as an assault player is only using your jump pack to do ground slams. using it just as a mobility tool can make you very hard to deal with as long as you don't over commit.

[@IronSquid501]

I haven't seen people say it's weak in PVP, a lot of people said it's weak in PVE because you can only jump about 1/3rd of what you can in PVP and your skill tree is terrible. I used to main Assault in PVE and when I started levelling, I reckon I ignored the first ~11 or so levels worth of perks because they all just sucked. Any good perks you do get, the Vanguard has a superior version (ie. 15 kills to restore armor is 10 for Vanguard,) the Grapnel Launcher does everything the Jump Pack does without the massive cooldown, and the Van gets a primary weapon which can include the Melta which is OP, so you're better off spending your one of only 3 class picks on the Vanguard instead of the Assault.

[@spacecowboyristo]

My guy, you gotta pay attention more. People are clearly talking about PvE not PvP........

[@Sgtteddybear34]

Excellent work

[@berndl91]

Wow real eye opener Will try your tips and maybe the class will work for me

[@zealotwortwortwort8428]

Love the strategy in the pvp with certain play styles that complement classes working together.

[@mrbluedude883]

The sense of superiority when you kill someone in a firefight with a bolt pistol

[@bassbxinfinitynebula8736]

Thanks foe the tips. Was having hard time getting used to it.

[@lcastl2ol1]

excellent lvl 20 atm assault is one class i dont play, as it seems so hard to get the jumps right, good to watch to learn.

[@CalebO-l6c]

Hes shit in pve bro in pvp hes actually fun/good with the jetpack range actually being what its supposed to be the same as the campaign

[@double_joseph327]

PvP it’s pretty weak in capture and control some of those zones just get in a super tight area and you can’t fly around. You just get wrecked by any other class. Elimination and seize the ground it’s op tho if you are skilled.

[@Aidian1]

I tried heavy bolt pistol and didnt like it (was only one game) but watching this makes me want to give it another try. I also love assault, still think it could use 3 armor though and a slight increase in hammer swing speed.

[@fr0gzz]

The bigger mag of the standard bolt pistol can help in smaller maps and with multiple targets for sure

[@Syberchance]

I haven't done PVP yet, is the class leveling from PVP and PVE separate?

[@fr0gzz]

Yes they are separate, in PvE you have a whole perk and weapon upgrade system which pvp doesn’t have

[@ImAlwaysPlus]

Pretty much maxed tactical and heavy. Deciding between this and vanguard. I like both but man vanguard just too strong.

[@Luck-p5q]

The pistol works well, it's a shame that the assault is reduced to that. Space Marine 1 was better for this class

[@unreadlibrarian]

I replayed some SM1 PVP to hype myself for this, and I was sad to find the entire Perk system had been removed between games for PVP mode. Where is my True Grit bolter in one hand? =(

[@draktandragon1939]

This video shows that hammer is the secondary and pistol the primary weapon. You used it effectively, however I find this playstyle boring. Its also sad to see that melee weapons are secondary weapons even on bullwark and assault.

[@shapshane8241]

i agree with most of what you said, but i think your playstyle is better on to 50 kills rather than capture as it is very passive. multiple times you were standing there for a good 10s or more getting no value.

[@fr0gzz]

💯 You are correct, in Annihilation game-mode its very important to minimize deaths

[@MsPysoul]

its bad in pve.... it should have way quicker cooldown on the jetpack and/or higher jump range

[@tacoboy2218]

Im learning this class because RAVENGUARD RAAAAH

[@deadgunslinger8489]

(intense bird noises)

[@J.B.1982]

Nerfing the jet pack in PvE is such a BS dev vs player move or it's lame map design. Make the maps in consideration of the assault class. Let the assault blast up wherever he wants.

[@Bl2EAKIN]

PvE comments aside, while the class is alright in PvP, the way it plays is shit, mainly because of how limited use the jetpack is, and how high the damage of ranged weapons is. So you just end up being a Pistol Marine than an Assault one. Imo they should majorly nerf damage across the board and significantly lower skills cooldowns so that the PvP becomes more dynamic. Nerfing damage will fix most issues both for melee and ranged classes. Parrying and heavy melee attacks might actually get used. Ranged classes will no longer get 1 shot if an Assault/Melee character gets the jump on them, and Melee classes would be less scared to get in and actually user their melee skills.

[@Rabzz05]

only watch 3 min but it seems pistol is op not the class xD

[@orclord5719]

Wait until you fight people who know how to parry. Hammer is too slow. Will never hit me head on anymore

[@unreadlibrarian]

You gonna get alt-attacked real bad. Parry this - thunder slam.

[@orclord5719]

@unreadlibrarian that can be dodged with 2 back dashes while shooting. Not saying I will never die to it, depending on situation, but 1v1 I won't be

[@sb17899]

did you ignore the fact that most of his kills were with the bolt pistol? how are you gonna parry that?

[@Gwapco]

Good vid man check mine out on assault pvp!!

[@zero5496]

misleading title

[@jacobwooten977]

Assault in pve is the problem. I keep seeing these videos assault is op… in pvp Gaslighting for clicks

[@windwalker3081]

It’s absolutely dog water in PVE.
