Also, yesterday i was talking about arbites mastiff names. People told me that they have normal names, yet all the skins in darkide state the pattern of the dog and their "designation" which most of the time, consists of random numbers and letters. Whats up with this?

Again at least try idk

#

A Hive City simulator

#

For Honor but it's 40k

#

Etc.

#

Actually 40k version of For Honor sounds sick

#

I always thought that Commoragh would be a good setting for a video game

#

Due to the arena fights

#

Again, a Battle Royale would actually make sense there

#

Might actually even be fun.

#

Minus the fact that you are playing a battle Royale

#

I'd imagine it would be similar to the culling. Except hopefully not driven to the ground by the devs being greedy shitheads.

Does the "Time and Tithe" defining moment for Arbites imply a more "detective"/"investigative" background? Im a little confused on what it implies. Does it mean my character is strict on taxes/quotas, or does it mean my character is intuitive/was capable of discovering a mysterious decline within the quotas of Tertium(linked to some form of corruption)? Anyone know?

You want a massive-scale 40k RTS? Get the mod for Men of War: Assault Squad

Do space marines have the same reverence to custodes as the regular people have to them?

#

Loyalist ones

#

And also, I heard a YouTuber say once the power difference of a space marine to a regular person is the gap between a custodes is to a marine, is that correct

late osprey
#

Space Marines are, by and large, very diverse in their beliefs, but also generally less superstitious than the average Imperial

#

IIRC there's an instance where the Minotaurs square up with the Custodes, so at least one group of them doesn't respect them so much

#

And I can't imagine they're the only chapter to be so.

can rule out the factions that don't really use knives; fyreslayeres, khadrons etc

Khadron do use knives

though usually they're cosmetic on the minis

It can't be Flesheater court or any of the Destruction factions

Is there any lore behind the red arbites

#

Also the deluxe edition weapons are black, I thought red usually meant a higher tier of weapon, something to do with mars

#

The weapons get a mars patterned skin at max mastery, but I don’t think it has anything to do with value of the weapon

Lore behind the red Arbites is just pretty much that Black and Red are the signature colours of Imperial authority, and that is pretty much shared across multiple Imperial subfactions, from the Inquisition, to the Adeptus Administratum, to the Adeptus Ministorum.
Though it could also be because the Inquisition has requested extra support from the Arbites and red armour symbolises their secondment to Grendyl's Warband.

I haven't got Arbites yet so I haven't had a chance to check all of it, but "Noctis" description on the Red armour pieces might suggest it's from Mars, "Noctis Labyrinthus" is an uninhabited region of Mars.

Its just politics bro

#

Sure you have infinite authority as an inquisitor

#

but not infinite resources

#

if the local regiments and imperial authorities hate you, it makes your job far more difficult to do

#

Every good inquisitor understands that connections and favor are everything

#

Also to an extent I dont think Inquisitors are just as invincible as people like to believe they are

humble shoal
tough haven
#

Sure you have a lot of theoretical power, but the arbites can actually just not care depending on the situation, these people can board a rogue trader's ship and potentially kill them, if they so much as suspect a minor crime

#

Its two different organizations that are above the law going up against each other, and classic imperial factionalism

humble shoal
#

Pretty much

tough haven
#

Honestly I wouldnt be surprised if arbites really resent the organization, they are "law incarnate" and the inquisition blatantly flies in the face of every law and standard, and is completely unchecked besides by itself

How come the arbitrators tend to shit talk each other? In my head, i really thought theyd be a lot more professional towards one another and then shit talk the rejects.

storm jungle

Because you cant take humanity out of humans

they are trained to be judgemental of everyone and each other

they arent automatons lol

also them being more professional towards each other would be boring af

I just dont like it when people respond with basically: "What you think is wrong because the thing you think was wrong was written by someone who has made a lot of good stuff." People that make good things, dont always make good things.

celest dome
#

I mean, it's kind of the only thing that can be said, headcannoning that the Arbites are all professional and nice to each other isn't something stated in previous lore that Darktide break or something

queen laurel
#

In the 1st place them being hard on each other is to be expected with the way they are trained

#

these guys are trained to be judges juries and executioners

#

If they see their ally do even a momentary lapse of judgment they will not hesitate to shoot the guy

#

i would not expect an organization that has a stand and die protocol to be buddy buddy with each other

storm jungle
#

Ward has written basically most arbites lore and had active hand in the banter as said in the fatshark blog.

#

If you dont like that answer I dont really know what to tell you.

#

Its like me being upset at how something functions as a regular joe while an engineer explains to me how it works.

wintry scarab
#

For me it just boils down to them feeling a lot like rejects when theyre not supposed to be. I was hoping that they would have more of authoritative presence. Mabybe its because people dont play rejects rn and i just haven't seen enough interactions, but to me their interactions seem a bit off.

storm jungle
#

They dont feel like rejects tho.

#

What.

#

Also wdym "have an authorative presence", they literally threaten you with execution if you leave group coherency lmao

queen laurel
#

You leveling up it's just you basically ranking up in your job environment

If they acted like how you wanted them everyone would dislike playing them like how they did with the Cadian on launch.

#

they very much act like arbites

queen laurel
#

I don't get your point like

You don't like them acting as they are expected of being mean to each other because that's how they are trained because it feels too rejecty?

It also makes sense tbh

#

fascists should not be nice to each other lol
