We are rejects, for now and for always.

winter grove
#

Remind yourself that we're still rejects

celest rock
#

At the beginning yeah

uncut pebble
#

And I agree, where's my melta, fatshark. Give it to zealouts so I can stop using a flamer for anti armor.

winter grove

Still are

First target is the most important stat on any weapon that has it as a stat

We're just renamed to acolytes

#

You will forever be expendable.

#

That's how it works.

#

You might be an asset, but remember that assets are expendable.

faint beacon
#

we're basically setenced to a prolonged death

celest rock
#

Regardless, an elite guardsman and the most skilled ministorum priest aren't on the level of a fucking psyker and an ogryn

faint beacon
#

when we die? could be now

#

could be in 10 years with working for Grendyl

#

all about luck

Even Space Marines

Custodes, maybe not

lucid hinge

custodes are the only people in the imperium that aren't expendable

faint beacon

#

The DT vet is nothing to sneeze at.

#

He or she has fought their entire life, same as a zealout, to prove that they're worth something.

celest rock
uncut pebble
#

No.

#

A stormtrooper is expendable.

#

Very expendable.

tall torrent
#

The avg tempestus scion does not 1v1 a plague ogryn and win without taking any dmg

uncut pebble
#

A DT vet is more like irl special forces.

#

And yeah, a tempestus scion has a good chance of losing to a plague ogryn.

faint beacon
#

recall Ogryn's are very hardy

#

Guard power scaling is just so weird

winter grove
#

We can assign origin to our characters right?

uncut pebble
#

Our characters, on the other hand, are capable of fighting them without a scratch.

small loom
#

see here: anyone in the Tanith 1st

faint beacon
#

lmao

winter grove
lucid hinge
#

the DT vet can be a part of the schola so either a scion or commissar since they have no voice lines regarding the navy, But DT fucks the lore up (who cares lol)since either of those prob wouldn't be uber punished even by a corrupt official.

uncut pebble
#

You want something to be afraid of? One of our psykers that loses their psi collar could be unstoppable.

tall torrent
faint beacon
#

Okay the plauges they're cooking up on Atoma are baby shit then

#

lmao

uncut pebble
#

Yeah.

coral willow
# celest rock At the beginning yeah

you are still rejects, a expendable individual used by inquisitors to do their bidding.
then again in warhammer everyone is used as a expendable comoddity

tall torrent
#

Therefore there canonically exists a group of guardsmen that can 1v1 plague Ogryns on the daily

uncut pebble
#

Either that, or the purity seals we're taking into combat are wildly powerful.

Nurgle weeping as his cultist make the most pathetic diseases known to his garden

Or... because we are part of the inquisiton (and with the way warp fuckery works, believing something makes it real, yada yada) that could be protecting us.

tall torrent
#

And have the psyker yell “testicular torsion”

playing without a rebreather of somesort causes you to constantly take corruption damage near poxwalkers

# lucid hinge custodes are the only people in the imperium that aren't expendable

Everyone is expendable when it comes to comparing any life vs the Emperor's. There is no cost too great to pay to ensure his continued survival and even the Primarchs are expendable compared to him considering how much he is holding together behind the scenes vs the Chaos Gods. If the Emperor falls Mankind dies with him (or at least that's my understanding of things in 40k)

April fools update where if a Daemonhost spawns it instantly agroes on the person who's the closest to it within 50m's

If only the thousand sons weren't turned to ash because magnus left them to their own devices for approximately 15 minutes.

Plogryn's instantly kill, and Beasts instantly kill you if they eat you

I wouldn't say big E is expendable.

He is a god now, whether he likes it or not.

#

Look if the emperor up and died, Im just saying Eye of terror 2 electric boogaloo is going to happen

uncut pebble
#

He can't even truly die. He's a perpetual.

lucid hinge
#

I think there is a line somewhere of emps stating that he will sacrifice a legion of space marines to save a custodes or something close to that

coral willow
faint beacon
#

that and well, humans cant travel the warp safely anymore

lucid hinge
#

Its a very old quote

faint beacon
#

so like damn...

uncut pebble
#

I don't remember how malcador died, though.

#

Didn't horus kill him?

lucid hinge
#

he sat on the golden throne

somber axle
lucid hinge
#

so the emperor could fight horus

coral willow
uncut pebble
#

Oh right he took big E's seat.

tall torrent
#

Turned to ash on golden throne from holding off the combined might of 4 chaos gods

uncut pebble
#

Yeah that'd fry your soul.

#

Perpetual or not, if you aren't a strong enough psyker, you would die from that.

His interaction with Gman shows he kind of still cares in a weird sense but since he is so mentally destroyed now it's hard to tell

coral willow

You know what would 100% end the Imperium?

uncut pebble

If AdMech declared Omnissiah above the Emperor and decided to go independent (they have all resourses to do exactly that)

||‘Guilliman.’ The voices overlaid, overlapped, became almost one, and Guilliman had a fleeting memory of a sad face that had seen too much, and a burden it could barely countenance. ‘Guilliman, hear me.
‘My last loyal son, my pride, my greatest triumph.’
How those words burned him, worse than the poisons of Mortarion, worse than the sting of failure. They were not a lie, not entirely. It was worse than that.
They were conditional.
‘My last tool. My last hope.’
A final drawing in of power, a thought expelled like a dying breath.
‘Guilliman…’|| godblight spoilers

#

I doubt it.

#

He isn't insane and doesn't even have the power to kill big E.

#

Even if he wanted to.

celest rock
coral willow
#

he kinda is? tzzench built him back in his image after his souls got shattered into million bits

tall torrent
#

The only character that can maybe actually kill the emperor is the null blank

celest rock
#

Because Magnus absolutely couldnt

lucid hinge
#

Ahriman

celest rock
#

Ahriman might be able to if he ever gets his Black Library card to work

uncut pebble
#

Oh, I was referring to Magnus.

#

Magnus definitely would not kill big E.

coral willow

#

Ahriman's whole thing is knowledge. And trying to get into one of the Black Libraries

#

Bro is fiending for eldar knowledge

This argument would all be moot if the best character in the setting was still alive

#

Sanguinius

#

My boy!

coral willow
#

hes best cause he died

coral willow
#

sanguinius is awesome

uncut pebble
#

If only he wouldn't have died to prove a point...

lucid hinge
#

Sanguinius is technically still around through the sanguinor

tall torrent
#

Didn’t sanguinius’s soul come back for like 30 seconds to revive Dante when he was about to give up

celest rock
#

Sanguinius is a warp entity

lucid hinge
#

Im pretty sure the only perma dead primarch is horus since his soul gets put through the shredder

celest rock
#

Or, more accurately, 2 of them

uncut pebble
#

It's theorized that sanguinius is now a daemon.

celest rock
#

He's FAR older than the Imperium

uncut pebble
#

Though "daemon" isn't really the proper term.

#

Sort of the same thing as a living saint.

celest rock
uncut pebble
#

Minus the living part.

tall torrent
#

Yea sanguinius’s “soul” revived Dante in devastation of Baal

coral willow
celest rock
#

He guides Mephiston through the warp. Its how Blood Angels can travel without the astronomicon

Wibbly wobbly timey wimey shit

Szarekh spoke to Dante?

Dante if you're wondering

#

Correct

somber axle
celest rock
tall torrent
#

One day orikan the diviner is gonna time travel back and “accidentally” kill Erebus before he’s born

lucid hinge
#

but yeah the writers keep setting up the "dead" primarchs to be around in some capacity, even FM came back during the HH in a spectral way to hold the webway gate iirc

celest rock

Dante is my favorite character in the modern 40k setting

the only ones we haven't seen are Alpharius and Horus and Horus is giga dead

faint beacon
uncut pebble
#

I don't know enough about the chaos legions to contribute to this conversation...

celest rock
#

Alpharius and Omegon swapped places when they were found

#

Omegon became Alpharius, who was killed by Dorn

coral willow
#

they probably swapped places a lot between

#

so

uncut pebble
#

Scuse me... traitor legions, not just chaos legions. Don't know enough.

celest rock
#

Alpharius became Omegon and was "killed" by Guilliman except probably not

tall torrent
#

In any case one of the alpha legion primachs got MK fatality’d

coral willow
#

who knows what alpharius died on there

lucid hinge
#

OH yeah I forgot kurze fucking died

#

L bozo

coral willow
#

dude was trying to tbag dorn and then got fatality'd

celest rock
#

Someone named Alpharius popped up around the maelstrom and started raiding at the head of a warband. The Assassinorium sent their most elite team of assassins after him. Their heads ended up in his personal kitchen.

#

Like, the grand master of assassins kitchen

"Hey, that's rude. You can have these back. Please stop."

yea

coral willow

#

There are rumors that the next "primarch" sized model will be the Sanguinor

#

Kind of an "avatar of Sanguinius"

lucid hinge
#

I wonder what that will be paired with

tall torrent
#

Just make a legion of the damned army at this point

lucid hinge
#

since the lion was paired with angron and the new farsight model

celest rock
tall torrent
#

Since pariah nexus is main storyline rn

#

Imperium vs Necrons

lucid hinge

he has one?

lucid hinge

it's goofy looky but he has one

necrons need better C'tan models

he has a ctan capr or something?

I do wish they would just go full into the necron civil war they seem to be building up

faint beacon

Like, he came back and just hasn’t participated in any major event yet

Pariah nexus is devolving into Necrons civil war

#

He doesn’t even have Necrons under control

coral willow

he still has the emergency code to control them

celest rock

and then uh no dice after that

You can probably take a hot guess what my favorite chapter of SM's are, but Imperium wise I love the Steel Legion too much, Necrons are my favorite Xenos

the first kf looks more fun than the second one

its got that jank old game vibe to it

coral willow

yeah that whole shit happened after saber took tripwire and they started to manage kf2 while they worked on 3

#

i hate it

#

the weapons were usually mid also

cause no "omg p2w" argument i assume

#

which is why glocknshield didnt havw parry i assume

#

god fucking dammit

Im looking at the G36C and it has FMJ rounds

what the fuck balance hello

hello?

coral willow

i quit before g36c

from the dosh count i think

Apparently its a T4

coral willow

why

thanks saver

glock cries again

you fuck

faint beacon

HRG Bastion is a T5

#

which is a MG

coral willow
#

bastion is a dumb gun

#

its also a shield gun like glocknshit

#

but the shield is always active

#

and have hp p sure

#

also the horzine neon bullshit i hate

#

idk if uh

#

vector is weight 6

#

or 5

#

but you could probably carry t5 g36c and vector

#

and mow down everything i fuess

#

🤡

#

clown balance

faint beacon

reminder weapon upgrading ALSO exists

#

and T5 is max

coral willow

ye

faint beacon

Yeah actually you could do G3 and Kriss and both upgrade them

#

thats wild

coral willow
#

fucking wild

#

you can technically run out of ammo i guess since only 2 guns

#

but like you are swat

faint beacon
#

that or Glock and Shart and G3 and thats it

coral willow
#

glock is bad

#

i'd rather take kriss

faint beacon

Damage reduction basically

#

thats really all I can see out of it

coral willow

i know kriss is better at scrakes

#

nut sure what g36 is good for

faint beacon

Armor bypassing

coral willow

Abom and matriarch

coral willow
#

sounds... mediocre, but its good i guess

faint beacon

I mean it does

decent?

coral willow

glocknshit and the nailgun still the kings of killing fp groups cause how high the damage is against fp

except glock sucks and nailgun dominates

idle pecan

is this a good build

@coral willow when in the fuck

#

did we get a Slug Shotgun

i def quit before that

only thing i like about that neon bullshit is the hemoclobber

coral willow

the design

Oh no trust me I hate it also

coral willow

like you show that 80s neonsign street guy a weapon

faint beacon
#

if its useable or fun I will use it

coral willow

and then tell him to do shit

horzine cant design shit

it works when its their unique lineup

like medpistol n shit

# trim breach still figuring out the curio combination for vet

If you run two health curios you can have over 200 HP which allows you to take two sniper shots from full toughness/health and not go down, or take two poxburster pops from full toughness/health and not go down. Iirc there's also a good breakpoint for using toughness curios and sniper resist perks to tank an entire shot without taking any HP damage if you'd rather go two toughness curios instead. I am a Deadshot fiend so I use triple Stam curios. But if you're not a clown like me you can run one of these combos:

2 Toughness, 1 Stam
2 Toughness, 1 HP
2 HP, 1 Stam
2 HP, 1 Toughness

Good perks to have are Sniper resist, combat ability regen, sprint efficiency and Stam regen

Well, you'll laugh at me because I put 25% unarmored damage on it.

somber axle
# umbral scaffold affaik it does

18 Stam bars from triple Stam curios (+3 x 3), the +1 Stam talent node under Confirmed Kill, 2 default Stam on Vet, 4 Stam stamp Recon and +2 Stam perk on Recon is objectively more uptime on Deadshot than the default 6 Stam you would have otherwise ignoring all that and using only the default Stam you get from base class + Recon bonus Stam

uncut pebble
#

But that's because it came with 20% and I just barely couldn't 1tap a dreg gunner.

somber axle
#

You can see this in Psykanium tests too

uncut pebble

Literally left it with like 12hp.

#

So I changed it to 25% to pass that bp.

somber axle

Is 18 Stam excessive? Yes

Why not +10% elite dmg

somber axle

But it means very good uptime on Deadshot with a Recon

Because then I wouldn't 1tap a dreg gunner.

I'd be missing 15% damage vs dreg gunners.

With 25% unarmored I pass the bp to 1tap a dreg gunner without waiting on a crit.

Yknow... thinking about it now... I just bricked this gun in the worst way possible.

somber axle
# ivory canopy what's the difference between the Recon lasgun Marks?

Recon Mk II is the most basic but also the most ammo efficient of the Recons and has the highest single target DPS and best ammo economy

Recon Mk VIIa trades a slight amount of single target DPS and some ammo economy for cleave on shots, more damage per shot and a slower fire rate than the Recon Mk II

Recon Mk VId is the light machine gun variant with double the magazine size and the fastest rate of fire of the weapons. It has a slower reload and slower weapon swap speed

#

#

thats actually nuts

#

graia IAG in chat anyone

somber axle
#

They are all good now but it is important to note that the Recon Mk VId is the most ammo thirsty variant now and it also surprisingly has the lowest DPS of the three variants. It excels at suppression and when used with Onslaught has the best DPS vs Crushers

#

They all do very similar damage and no Recon does significantly more DPS than any of the others to make it the best Recon

#

The all have pros and cons so you should pick which one you enjoy playing with the most

idle pecan
#

vId because hehe firerate go brr

somber axle
#

There is no Recon that does everything better than any other variant

#

THAT SAID: a lot of people favour the Recon Mk VIIa because the cleave is extra useful for firing down hordes and mixed hordes. It can be very handy for shooting through a crowd of poxwalkers to hit the Rager in the middle of the horde, or to clean a line through a group of groaners body blocking a Sniper

overwhat

somber axle
# ivory canopy what modifier should I go for other than damage and ammo?

Exactly what Backup said! Damage and Ammo stat as close to 80% as you can get, Mobility 51%+, Stability and Collateral can be ignored. Collateral has some niche value when it is higher because it lets you get two staggers off on a Flak Rager while shooting it to death, letting you safely stunlock it. But that's optional tbh because the DPS is solid and you'll probably kill them too fast for that to matter most times

The penance to take no melee damage

# ivory canopy How does this look for a recon I already had?

That looks good other than groaners. Headhunter is the most important blessing. Infernus is a solid side grade to Dum Dum and performs comparable DPS (less damage than Dum Dum at 0m to 15m, similar DPS 15m to 25m, better DPS 25m+). Flak is the most important perk imo. That should perform well!

Grab Infiltrate, Low Profile and Overwatch talent nodes. Infiltrate stealth lasts 10 seconds. Low Profile also lasts 10 seconds and gives you -90% threat reduction when stealth breaks meaning if you are near a team mate you can literally shoot your gun and watch enemies walk past you to beat up the poor Psyker you're standing next to instead. Overwatch talent node gives you +1 charge at the cost of +33% CD. Infiltrate normally has 45 sec on CD. With Overwatch it has 2 charges and recharges every 1 min. Put Combat Ability Regen perks on all your curios to lower this CD. Use this with Tactical Awareness talent for -6 sec on ability CD per special kill. Get an ability CD reduction stim ASAP. Chain your Infiltrate and Low Profile during spicy fights to keep aggro off you and stay near the team. If things get extra hot pop CD stim and prepare to use Infiltrate more to keep hidden from the fight. You CAN still fight because during Low Profile you have the threat reduction. If an enemy hits you once? Pop Infiltrate immediately. Restores toughness to full and On Overwatch Penance only counts HP DAMAGE as failing it
