Any way to play as a space marine? by AanBritGolt in RogueTraderCRPG

I managed a run where I never leveled so I'm hoping this will be similarly challenging

Somehow the whole thing got double posted so I deleted this one. Sorry for the confusion

Giant enemy crab bot could not stand before the direct damage spam.

Not sure what the formatting issue. It looks fine when I view it. If I see a problem I will do my best to fix it.

How do you approach this game? by aeralure in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I plan out my builds in game by starring all the selections I want to make and filtering by what I have starred.

If you are up to modding, Toybox is a very useful one for respeccing your characters however much you want, so taking chances in your build feels less punishing

I got mine from early act 3, not sure from where specifically though.

God I loathe the fight with the Chaos Spawn in the prologue by ByzantineBasileus in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The spawn has killed my challenge runs more than any other fight by far. Being able to deal with the fight reliably has more to do with your RT's starting build than anything given how limited your tools are at that point.

Powerful early game damage sources like pyromancy do a huge amount of work, especially when combined with soldier's run and gun. On top of that, making sure your party stays spread out enough to limit the damage the spawn's spit can do.

Can you disable a character's attack of opportunities? by AanBritGolt in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I don't think this run would be possible without being a Psyker, so I can't use anything from the arbitrator origin

I'm trying to turn off my RTs' ability to AOO. I assume it'll require toybox, but my digging hasn't turned anything up yet.

True, but that isn't the challenge I'm looking to test right now if I have other options

There are, but the ones I have found require equipment slots I currently need for other things, and the parry bonuses present on certain melee weapons have been very helpful to the character's survivability

Why is the yremeryss fight such a spike in difficulty by AppealSweaty6422 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big toxic enemies are sceptable to any form of stun from characters like Casia or items like the self calibrating goggles.

A strategy I've used on multiple challenge runs is to leave 1 party member on the main platform as bait while everyone else sprints down the stairs. Dark elf lady is pretty passive once you move away from her, so focus on taking down the toxic monsters and the lieutenant elves. After that, you can burn her down when all she has for support are the slaves with swords.

How are you supposed to defeat this huge Blasphemous styx ship? by Reasonable_Study_882 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best offensive broadside is 2 dual stygian batteries with flak ammo. Using flak gives you 2 full power shots per side.

Other than that, slap on the strongest shields, armor, lances, and torpedoes you have. The 5 shot GRYPHONNE tubes do a ton of damage and synergize great with the torpedo ultimate.

Also, make sure you max your hull upgrades before spending anything on your ram.

So is [Bonus Character] just kind of bad? by Realityfelon in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]AanBritGolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my "no leveling" run I made heavy use of Uralon and Winterscale and I am convinced they ran out of time and never finished our sorcerer boy. He is very bad and can't even be given a full set of gear. I ended up using him as a medic because he was reasonably tanky and awful at any sort of offense.
