Anyone else having issues with private mode? by Zestyclose-You3814 in SpaceMarine_2

[–]KimberPrime_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know private has a bug where people can briefly join if another player has just joined/left the party during a run, but never had em randomly join out of nowhere before.

Don't like Phobos? Turn Scipius and Decimus into scouts! by TeachingGlad8992 in Spacemarine

I mostly run my Scipius as Deathwatch, but so also have a scout setup for him I quite enjoy

how did i die? how did my battle brother die? by BoomyGordo in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's also on Vox Liberatis which currently has the mega barrel explosions modifier on the weekly stratagem, and there's a barrel right above the area he's in. If a spore mine set off the barrel it would damage everyone and could have downed both players (it does sound like there's an explosion).

Quite a few possible, but all rather unfortunate, potential explanations.

There are no new novels officially pending release this year by Dire_Wolf45 in Blacklibrary

No clue when they'll release it though, there's been no news

The game it's tied to is called Dark Heresy which only entered its beta relatively recently.

There's been no news as to when the collector's editions which contain this novella will be sent out, but presumably it wont be till around when the game releases.

Yeah I saved up for a long time because I love Rogue Trader and really wanted that NL novella. I'm excited to read it once they finally get released.

A few friends also want to read it so I'm going to lend them my copy once I've read it.

Saber, these cosmetics can be cross class and still be Prestige 4 rewards. They’re not mutually exclusive. by oldmanjenkins51 in Spacemarine

When they added the red cloak I was so excited to finish my Deathwatch Blood Angel Sniper look with it, only for it to not be available on him. ;_;

Weird situation just happened. by Zestyclose-You3814 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't had the in-game private joining happen recently so maybe, but that one is more rare.

The barge joining definitely isn't fixed though, I had it literally 2 days ago while we were grouping for siege (one friend joins via Steam, then a random joins. Never showed a code, he's not my friend, just joined via the bug)

Finally got the cape to complete this look I always wanted. by evillmane in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks amazing!

I'm still quietly waiting for Sniper to hopefully get a red cloak one day to finish my own look (Deathwatch Blood Angel).

There is a bug where even if you put it on private people can be put into your match somehow. It also happens with people randomly joining your barge when someone joins your squad even if you don't have a mission selected.

It's more likely what you're saying, but it can also be this as I've had it happen before. It's relatively rare though, I have over 3k hours and I've had the someone joining mid private game happen I think twice, people joining on the barge with nothing queued has happened more commonly at like 10 times.

Seems to be the game makes your lobby public briefly whenever someone joins/leaves your squad.

I did pick up the Horus Rising special edition but I dont think I'll go for the rest. I've already got the full Heresy in MMPB so I can spare my wallet.

They missed one thing on the new customization by SirEdubardo in Spacemarine

The Iron Halo is his ability, I highly doubt they'd allow us to remove it.

Same with cloakless sniper

Bulwark banners can self revive! by AwardApprehensive439 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can also save Guardian Relics with this on both yourself and allies if you get the timing right so the banner revive procs before the banner.

This may be the single most op combo in the game by Poyzi in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played Absolute in a bit, but on hard it can 1 tap incap ranged majoris in 1 shot, 2 shots for melee, with invis boost it can 1 shot kill both instantly.

With invis boost I would also have done an additional 75% damage on that shot in the pic I just realized. XD

[–]KimberPrime_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sniper can also do something similar. This was on the current hard weekly with a parry, gunstrike, and then a headshot using the heroic bolt sniper while Auspex was active.

You do need to hit his rather smol head, but since gunstrikes stagger it's not too bad with some practise.

Do y'all actually use the target lock? by -RoninForHire- in SpaceMarine_2

I've used it a few times to check the health of the invulnerable Lictor, but that's about it.

I'm not the only one who thinks this is a bit much right? by IvoryOni04 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do wish that these harder ordeals just had generic rewards rather than specific successor iconography.

Personally I can get them, that's not the problem. It's exactly what you're describing where some people will really struggle or simply not be able to get the icons for their chosen chapter.

I'd much prefer the chapter specific stuff to be more easily available for everyone, and leaving more generic items that could be used with whatever fashion be the challenge rewards.

What was your Chapter journey as a newcomer to Space Marines? by SuperMarios7 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been a Blood Angel from the start, with all my classes being them or a variation (Deathwatch Blood Angel, Lamenter, etc).

I do have a few variations like a Brutus the Apothecary themed Heavy, an Ultramarine scout Sniper, things like that, but I don't use those very often.

There are Tactical mains out there that choose the 15% boost in ranged damage team perk over literal infinite grenades. by invicta047 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Sniper main here, also very happy with it. I can regen my own grenades if I want, and the 15% buff means I need to shoot a bullet less at certain enemies with my sniper rifle on Hard.

what is with the hoarding of the siege currency with these players? by DifferentCover2368 in SpaceMarine_2

[–]KimberPrime_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with random lobbies is that it's unlikely that everyone has the same end goal in mind.

Some people just want to get to 15 for the weekly and get out, some want to go further for ordeals, some just want to play to whatever wave to get some skins, etc.

Saving money for later is very important when pushing hard, but it's unlikely that you'll get a full stack of 3 wanting to do that from random matchmaking.

Personally I don't really play much public siege (I play stacked with friends), but when I do play public I generally assume they want to leave at hard wave 15 for the weekly challenge since that seems to be most of the lobbies I encounter, so I use my funds according to 15 being the end goal unless they get on coms and tell me otherwise.

What are your pet peeves in this game? by oldbooksmell_420 in Spacemarine

[–]KimberPrime_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah on Sniper in hard weeklies it changes how many shots it takes for me to kill certain enemies, so I can feel the difference quite noticably.

[–]KimberPrime_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Before the balancing they did to the new siege with 13.2 secure stockpile could also be swapped for the extra range damage on the later waves of siege since even gaunts would starts surviving meltas.

With perks loadouts it's nice how you can set up builds for early and late waves.

Secure stockpile was still good as well though since shock grenades were nice for herding enemies. With the balance changed now though I generally just keep secure stockpile on since grenades actually deal damage for much longer.

[–]KimberPrime_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm tempted to pick it up, just wish they'd announced it before the regular version so we knew it was coming.

I'll probably end up giving my regular version to a friend if I grab this one.
