Top 5 Characters NOT To Invest In! - Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus

[@thorveim1174]

Angrax is both worth it and necessary to upgrade. Necessary because he is a must include in the fall of cadia missions, and worth it because he TRUELY shines in onslaught: just park him next to 2 spawn points, and watch him instantly murder entire waves worth or gaunts the second they appear with no action cost. And even if he fails at it somehow, he has bonuses making nids more likely to flee around his latest victim. In chaos onslaught he really pulls his weight.

[@ericcloud1023]

Yeah I just started really grinding chaos onslaught, and I put him at a central spawn & oh lordy did he absolutely demolish any nid dumb enough to pop in from that hole. This new path of the Phoenix is perfect for him to it's just Onslaught with different factions rushing

[@who5542]

Lmao, yeeah. He is a hound. I do the same, I initially did it unintentionally then wondered why the rounds were so short. Blew my mind when I realised what he was up to haha

Angrax solos the conquest mini games when you position him in the back. I have him at epic 3 and hateful assault at max. He one shots everything appearing besides ripper swarms. Invest in angrax. Also he's a stellar tank.

[@sonsofsparda22]

You don't even need to do anything. You put him in enemy territory, and he slaps everything that walks by. By the time it's your turn there isn't anything left to fight

[@gaarakabuto1]

Sybil is not amazing but she aint bad either. If you need her upgraded for campaign it's alright it's just that there are better options, that doesn't make her bad tho. Incisus is one of those characters that you can't see their potential. He is weirdly fine when upgraded enough (even at low levels if he has his resurrection). He is all about utility and he can simply make sure that your core team will get the job done. The rest i completely agree.

Angrax is such a bad character that you kinda have to investin to have those 3 stars in the cadia campaign. I wouldnÄt mind the low movement if he had the damage or the armor to balance that. but he is alover weak!

[@alantsargasov6127]

Sybil top tier pvp unit. Angrax very decent tank. Maladus only playable with corrodius coz it gives him 1 speed. But his dmg is good and he is pretty fat. Tutmose is pretty useless. U need to invest heavy in active ability to be not bad. Incisus niche pve char mostly

[@ericwolf9664]

Thutmose is 100% easier to get to than the overlord though if you didn't luck out with 10pulls. Eventually you need one of the 2 to help deal with all of the interceptors in Indomitus mirror, since they are so efficient vs the scarabs.

[@samuelkohn7282]

Tauna : don't invest in these characters also Tauna : let's promote all these characters to rare

[@jessesutton7985]

Promotions don't require any specific investment to happen. If you're buying req's you'll get plenty of shards for most of your characters. Plus for some you'll get shards from quests/events/missions. It's not like those shards do anything else, so why not promote them? In terms of orbs, once you get all the other uncommon units in a faction to rare, what else are you spending those orbs on? Until they implement a trade-in for them at least. Really what you're worrying about is upgrade mats since they're used across multiple characters and limited.

If you don't invest in Angrax, you're never doing the Cadia campaign. It's mandatory to include him, he can't die on you and the other two usually can't do all on their own.

[@iryisa]

Same for Sybill

[@TaunaRivals]

Yep! That's why I said some of them you'll need to invest in because you are forced, but you need to try and get away with minimum investment when you can.

[@ChaosSwarm]

@@TaunaRivals mostly have him hide far away from enemy and let the other 2-4 characters do the job. But In fall of cadia mission 71 get a high dmg spike that even harken wordclaimer a have with power lvl 14234 cant survive long enof. Not even in baricade with 50% dmg reduction helps. Sow ned to upgrade all chaos characters more to survive and do more dmg. But gona unlock other campaigns get more lot faster and feal like a make progres.

[@Eckskalibur]

Anggrax is honestly an excellent Tank and could do well in live PvP. But I’m stretching. Sybyll on the other hand might be a sleeper because she’s basically a confirm defense buff with anti overwatch abilities, which in this stage is a major hurdle for most setups. So getting her ascended might be best for everyone.

[@jessesutton7985]

Poor Incisus, he's just so clearly bottom tier when you look at the other options for healers. Bella gets a guaranteed res on your turn, Spyder summons scarabs, Rotbone get's a better version of basically the same passive plus resilient and blessing.

[@maksphoto78]

I love Anne Grax. Very tanky, can swipe at two enemies at a time, can kill or severely damage anyone who approaches or retreats from his melee range. To me, he's very solid.

[@methshin1]

Angrax is a house, absolutely worth investing in. Bad take, slow movement means nothing when the enemy comes to you.

[@dox3401]

I think what they need for the chaos termies to be good is to give them a passive similar to the Gravis X units, some sort of damage reduction so they can serve more as tanks

[@yeahhaey3059]

[@azraelknightquest5754]

Sow gona after curent eldar Missions is completed farm charms get Campaign characters to unlock Campaigns to get rewards more.

[@tamaskarsai2072]

I would say this is a ted outdated now, angrax and maladus can be used for legendary events now, When it comes to incisus I didn't know they buffed him, but you can use him to do legendary events, with 1 hit line ups or melee only lineups. When it comes to sibyll I didn't use her much, so can't say a ton about her. I would say she can be an option against overwatch teams, but that is about it. Burchard is a weird one, he is tanky, so he can be used as such on events, but his attacks are just really weak. So all he really has going, which is he's tanky. I would add in ancient thoread to the list, cus he literally not doing anything. The block chance is a fine at best ability which he has, and battle fatigue, like not gonna come up much, and final vengence for every unit within 3 hexes, sounds good, but I don't think it's a good strategy to kill off your own units to deal damage.

[@oblivionthekhajiit1155]

Video is a year old, but I do wanna say I have found Incisus pretty useful for revives and as a melee finisher because he seems to pierce more or do more damage than Beletor can to some enemies. There are better options than him though. Personally Maladus has proven to be an absolutely phenomenal tank for me so far as well as taking down opponents in one go that my bronze characters can't yet Maladus at Iron 3 (now Bronze 1) has been able to do so.

[@smartdog666]

Angrax is required for "Cadia" campaign. You have to upgrade him in case you would like to open elite part and get more Celestine shards per day. Maladus is slow...yes...because he's heavy as f**k. And as soon as he reaches enemies, they die. Don't underrate him. BTW my guildmate of 51 lvl has him in his top lineup (Arena) Brother Burchard. Can't say much about him but again he's required for campaign (Octarius mirror). More of that he's tanky and useful in events Incisus is the weakest healer in the game - it's true. And if you were lucky to get Isabella, you can leave him. Until you face event with 'Piercing damage' team requirement. You'll be surprised that only 8 characters (for now) suits this.

[@goodanytimej8688]

Yeah Angrax is 1 of the best. My top team is Snotlogga, Isabelle, Varros, Morven Vhaal, and Typhus, or replace Morven vhaal or typhus with Calgar. Thoughts?

[@MidnightHozz]

This is bad advice. Campaign characters simply must be leveled to certain thresholds just to get past the campaigns and unlock the elite version, which unlocks the best nodes to farm. Not to mention some of these are just flat out good in multiple game modes, like Angrax and Maladus.

[@ShadowknightEX]

I think you said this but most of these characters you have to invest in at least a little for campaign, on the ground that most characters you can only get through rng requisition drops.

[@onimeno121]

I've actually had a ton of success with bro burchad. His ultimate of being Ble to hit any target of any elevation regardless of line of sight has come in super handy so many times. And while I understand he's slow, he is insanely robust for his level equivalence. Alot of times he's the perfect duelist when I see so many summoner style guys on the board. Oddly enough I pair him up with healers to soak all that in comming damage while my other guys dole out the long range damage all the time. He's currently my strongest member at 58524 over all power. That's a 3 star legendary and his armor is just under the 1k mark with his health just under 3500.

[@axios4702]

Sadly, both Angrax and Sybil are required for their respective versions of the Fall of Cadia campaing. If you want to 100% either of those campaings and get the requisition permits you will need to invest HARD in them. We are talking silver rank I at the very least, and Chaos in particular is a bitch to level up beyond bronze thanks to the several kinds of rare tier items with few farming stages and low drop rates you will need. Silver lining? You will need a decent Chaos roster to farm xenos badges in Onslaught, so at least you will be using that silver Angrax. Sybill is just wastefull though. Unless you are utterly desperate for Requisition there is no incentive to play fall of Cadia Mirror.

I only use angrax has a target in the arena. Put him out there hang back with the rest of the team, wait for the enemy to attack him then bring the rest of the team in

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

Maladus comes with weaknesses unlike some characters. But I use him in arena and tournament arenas all the time. He's just so tanky, and when he gets in range he basically instantly kills a lot of the major threats, like whatever her name is with the flamethrower or most summoners. He'll absorb OverWatch, instantly kill someone, and then sometimes still survive more shots. Early on I invested a fair amount in Incisus, but healers kind of suck in this game because everything dies so quickly, or you need to be able to kill multiple summons, and they do neither. You can't rely on a 50% chance revive when someone dies. If they upped the size of that to two hex range, and made it 100% chance once a turn, then they would have a niche. Maybe make their AOE heal grant a damage reduction buff, or or any number of changes that would make them actually support in this super high damage output environment.
