He actually 1vthe entire enemy force, and i believe that is because he had a ton of stacks of versatility giving him 200+ weapon and ballistic skill while his cape is actively nerfing the opponents, so he would dodge and parry everything while his strikes would decimate everything in melee range. That and considering one of the heroic acts gives him an extra attack per turn he really did wipe the floor with all the enemies.

I'm playing a primarily dogmatic trader for my first playthrough, but with exceptions made such as consorting with Yrliet and actively trying to save her people, the character believes in a strict adherence to imperial law, but doesn't relish in unnecessary suffering, even that of the xenos. She was willing to give Idira a chance until Idira caused the death of many of her crew during a warp jump, at which point Argenta was allowed to carry out an execution. Marazhai was tolerated as useful during the escape, useful enough that she was willing to give him an opportunity to repent and make good on his deeds. Right up until he inadvertently allowed She who thirsts into the ship and slaughtered a bunch of crew. I didn't see locking him away as safe enough, and the other options were... unappealing. Thus, a summary execution was carried out. Normally, I'd hate doing that sort of thing on a first run because it cuts you off from content and reduces the overall experience. But I already know I'm destined for at least 3 full runs of this game and there'll be plenty of time to absorb all the extra content.

Jae is one of those characters who I think is a lot better if you do her romance as if you do she gets much more of a character arc than she has normally. I honestly found it quite good and quite interesting given the various contexts she has operated in. I won't say too much more to avoid spoilers, but her past and her character make much more sense and fit the story much better once you learn her backstory, and the romance plotline gives her a lot more character development as it is focused on her attempting to figure out who she wants to be and who she can be given the extremely rigid society of the Imperium. That being said, having her character arc so tightly tied to her romance is a point against her, though it does make sense why she wouldn't let the rogue trader close otherwise.

All the romanceables are like that imo. A good reason to replay, and try different characters. Heinrix has waaaaaaay more going on under the surface than he shows. And you actually have to get close to him to even get hints at the things going on under there. Why? Because Inquisition! I feel like Cassia is more expressive, but she's still a "there's probably far more to learn" person. Marazhai is written to be an asshole, but I'm interested to see if there's a bit of depth there. And Yrliet too (I felt I needed to go true Imperium experience first time, and was majorly Dogmatic leaning. Which was interesting, but I want to see how the Xenos do in the party).

That is accessible even without the romance, while Jae just doesn't get quite enough without it. That being said, yeah, all the characters hide a lot when you aren't actively romancing them.

Have to admit, when I finally got far enough to recruit Pasqual, I was very surprised he's an operative. Not a priest. He's a Tech Priest = Why is he not actually a Priest?!? (It means that at least Priest is the base class you can take that no one else gets out of your main party members) * Me, I'm trying to find a way to build Wolverine... So far, it's not working quite as well as I'd like. - Regeneration requires Psykor Majoris (which you don't get until level 14) + Invigorate or Enfeeble. = There's also the point Armor isn't as useful (nor is toughness) as I'd like it to be... I'm not sure it's worth restarting just to take the priest instead and save the Psyker stuff for Exemplar ranks. I was tossed between Forge and Death worlds; death world does have better raw stats - Forge world gives you augments that may be more useful. I went Biomancy/Santic Psyker with Warrior + Vanguard, but I'm thinking a priest with Warrior Assassin and a focus on Agility might do better with forgeworld's agility augment. One thing I'd say I prefer in Wrath/Kingmaker is that you CAN actually pick a class for MC that ISN'T covered and done better by your companions. Given how limited the pool is for archtypes, you'd think they wouldn't have done so many companions this time around... or would've made more actual archtypes.

Within one turn, the mobs have been entirely wiped out in any given battle with that cone attack. She can also stay in the front lines if you invest in some agility to dodge attacks and take the talent that replaces the HP calculation with Willpower instead of Toughness. Then, after all of that, she will buff a party member and send them off on another attack too.

Interesting take. For me, Argenta was the Destroyer of Worlds. Also loved her party banter and combat chatter. But not a lot going on quest wise. I was surprised and disappointed that her late game quest did not upgrade her to power armor. If Argenta was overwhelming power, Abelard was the unbreakable shield. You say melee isn't useful, and maybe his damage was not great, but in the rare cases where Argenta needed more than 1 turn to finish the map, Abelard would brick wall everything else. Always felt wrong going somewhere without him there to announce me. I understand you not liking Yrliet, but she was very much in line with how I played my Rogue Trader. He was one of the few humans in the galaxy that was allowed a degree of curiosity. One of the few able to explore, and think for themselves. And one of the few licensed to deal with xenos on more than a "purge the heretic" level. Of course he would embrace the opportunity to learn about Aeldari culture. His pragmatism would allow him to use that knowledge to seek mutually beneficial arrangements, or to exploit weaknesses. The big hit sniper was fun in combat too, although she was nowhere near Argenta.

I'm keeping him. He's creepy and evil and he doesn't want to _fall in love with me."_ _But of course,_ my first Rogue Trader has all the Awareness of a deaf bat and (like me) has not realized he has taken all the romance options with Marazhai that would puts him in an _Archon position_ in a manner of speaking. At this point my guy 100% has pissed off some greater daemon of Slannesh and all his attempts to be helpful or courteous to others, their lives, their cultures, is instead taken as romantic interest _which he does not notice nor realize is happening._ This is TTS Russ enters the bar to kill demons with flirting and ghosting levels of friend zoning my guy is doing. My second run is currently "unrepentant goblin" with side of "for the Golden Throne" and it will be mostly Argenta and Marazhai, with a _very_ distraught Heinrix, and two rotating slots.

How do Iconoclasts get Calligos? He always ends up with a broken spine when I do iconoclast runs. I'm half-convinced at this point that Icon's being able to recruit him is pure myth. Also I HAVE recruited Chordia as an Iconoclast.
@TheShadowChesireCat8 ай бұрын
Incendia has my first RT's build (I just finished that run). If you are running an Astra Militarum Commander origin Soldier first class archetype RT, it links in reeeeeeeally well for Regimental Tactics. I often ended sticking my gun girlies (Argenta and my RT Vinia) somewhere behind cover, Heinrix hanging around to be melee cover and general "midfield" defense for the gun girlies so they could focus on the pew pew (Abelard and Pasqal on forward, generally melee attack). Sticking Regimental Tactics on those 3, or even just gun girlies and they just obliterated everything. My RT out damaged Abelard, and the lasguns can do some ridiculous damage in the right hands. I often kept Ulthar around, cause he was really good at floating in and out of combat, and him provoking AoOs with his stupidly high combat stats mean he would rarely get hit. It was either him or Cassia. Didn't get to keep Idira around, and you do a Dogmatic run, and 2 of your potential recruits, the very nice Interrogator says to nope on (and, well, he has very pretty eyes and knows more about Xenos than you do), you nope on them. Oh well, time for new runs; Heretic and Iconoclast.
@TheShadowChesireCat8 ай бұрын
I also have to say, I took Heinrix into Arch-Militant. Having the girls do cover fire, and send Abelard, Pasqal and Heinrix in (and Ulthar too if he was in the party) to pick off or keep choke points busy is a great strategy. As I said earlier, I kept Heinrix around back because well, 1) my RT was romancing him, 2) in case any asshole got around Abelard and Pasqal (which was fairly regular, especially pulling fights from other screens). My RT was pure pew pew (I gave Argenta the ranged weapon Parry gloves), so needed a designated protector in case things got too close. Which kind of makes sense. I also really like the buffs you could put on Cassia to really put some Biomancy Gains on Heinrix. Reveal the Light then Iron Arm was beastly (especially then putting Iron Arm on Abelard, Pasqal or Ulthar). Heinrix is my fave, but I did like Cassia and her "I learned about this in a book" vs the reality of life in the Imperium. They are my two preciouses.

Space Wolves are very clearly supposed to be melee Owlcat builds characters for RP, but that doesnt make for good characters in gameplay Other build adjustments i make: Jae into a soldier, she doesnt really feel like an officer Abelard into a an Officer, he feels way more like a leader Marazahi to operative + asassin.does absolutely insane burst dmg

Don't know about Ulfar, he's and Arch Militant by default, with his unique Charge-like ability, he already has everything Warrior can have, but Soldier have better perks. Rapid reload, Point-blank, Swift Slaughter, Second Skin, Unpredictable, Fired up - all are beefing up Ulfar way more than anything Warrior can give to him. Run and Gun is also way better than Charge to him, since he already has his own Charge, all Soldier burst-fire related abilities are needed for his bolt-pistol. So Idk why you think than him being a Warrior is a better idea, besides the Space Wolf gimmick.
@Canadian_Zac5 ай бұрын
@someperson1829 because he's clearly a melee guy. Even has a unique charge ability. There's a few good perks, one that gives him a flat +1 Deflection, buffs to Kick which he can use for free Plus already have Argenta being a soldier/Arch Militant, and I respec Jae to Soldier instead of officer too, so I don't need a 3RD soldier/Arch Militant. Plus Second Skin is redundant since he can only wear power armour Warrior gives him more tanks stuff,which makes him near impossible to actually put down. Dude runs around in melee, had 2x the health of anyone else, absolutely jacked strength Balance wise its not a huge difference, but it makes way more sense to be a warrior,his unique stuff is all melee and tanking related

@@Canadian_Zac Nah mate, you underestimate his bolt-pistol close combat burst, it's a killer, especially combined with the spared mag accessory (or whatever it's called, that allows free pistol shot, if previous pistol shot was critical). His melee ain't that good compared to burst bolt-pistol. Second Skin weirdly enough works on his power armor. You can check his dodge stat, it doesn't give him 0.75 modifier. Warrior doesn't beef him up match, he's tanky as he is. But power wise he loses big. You really missing out on his burst fire, judging by what you've said.

@dagonofthedepths8 ай бұрын
Honestly, Ulfar is my fav by far. Maybe because I already like the Vlka Fenryka more than the other factions in the game but I think they nailed him for the most part. Also disagree with him being better at range. He's fine in melee with an axe and pistol imo which is how space marines fight in melee. Yeah he might be more optimal if he was a warrior, but he's up there as a melee fighter for me. I do agree they flubbed him narratively and mechanically with how he reacts to the world as a space marine but to be fair, Henrix, Yrliet, and Marzy also are treated equally as poorly. Like the inquisition should strike fear in the averages citizen. An interrogator just being there should make people feel nervous and he doesn't pull rank as much as he should. The xenos should be met with fear and aggression likewise. Feels like most of the time it's like, "of is that an Eldar? That's cool, anyways...". Which is weird since for some reason most people can't tell the difference between an aeldari and drukhari. Mechanically I get the decision making, power scaling is completely messed up in this game for the sake of variety. So Ulfar, a Wolf Guard, should just win the game for you but they don't want it to be Ulfar and the Rouge Trader show so he's tone back. I feel like that's also why they were easy on the acts of faith with Argenta. But if you did it right, you limit yourself on what you can put in and it kind of limits player choice. Like the game Darktide you get more or less the same weapons, but you never fight more than minor daemons and a skilled cultist with a refactor shield. Scaling was way better and if I saw a CSM in that game I would panic hard but that was a shooter, so it didn't need as much variety.
@SlanderedGaming8 ай бұрын

@@SlanderedGaming Problem is there isn't much you can do. Even normal space marines have a good 20 years of combat experience before they get to the rank of Battle Brother (not a noob anymore). It's easy to say Ulfar has been doing this for well over 200 years. On top of that, it doesn't excuse all the Chaos Space Marines that should be equally as powerful. Aurora should be on Ulfar's level or at least around it. Which is why I say you should have died in act 1. A lot of books I have, it's easy for a scape wolf to run through a good 300 men before it starts to get hairy for them. It's like the Lord of Change. There is no logical excuse why that thing didn't just wave his hand and turn the whole party into goob. 40k doesn't have that dnd thing where you can lv up and take on gods. It's more you might get enough information to work around your disadvantages, gain powers to augment yourself, or you just have plot armor or things are down scaled like this.

To be fair with Heinrix being an inquisitor, there are puritans and renegade inquisitors. The puritans tow the lines of the imperial truth/law very closely and will reprimand/punish you for not following the imperial laws to the dot. Then renegade/radical inquisitors, who will agree with using chaotic texts/powers as another tool for acheiving greater power for the imperium. So it makes sense in a way that Heinrix wouldn't really react to whichever you have decided to go down the path of (more puritan or renegade) as Inquisitors are known for being either of the two and in a game like this, it would make sense that through close proximity, he just decides to go with whatever you do in terms of puritan/renegade ideals.
