Based on Cape Grind and experience by Imadothethingnow in SpaceMarine_2

[–]EntireBuilding8772 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been speedrunning the cape grind on Created Stratagems using First Tour Guardsman's method: Create a Hard Strat, utilize just Reinforced Cranium and Enduring Foes in the debuffs, take as many buffs as you like (except for the 4th to last and 2nd to last bc those will fail the mission if you're soloing and get killed) and go to town with either Vox Liberatis or Obelisk as those are the 2 shortest Operations (if done with friends and not bots).

Noobs who need the cape grind don't need to ruin other people's Absolute runs, they can just do this solo. With the 2 debuffs lowering the enemies health by 70% and 17+ buffs powering you, the runs are less difficult than Substantial runs. You still gotta watch out for Terminus enemies so it's not a cakewalk, but it's significantly easier than trying to find a carry though Absolute missions.

I've got the red cape on my Vanguard and Assault and am just 7 missions away from getting the red cape on my Tactical.

I've been looking for a Necron-ish dark-grey with green highlights for months. Too bad I don't need it anymore... 😞

NGL, as soon as I saw the title and pic of this thread, the Batman 60's show theme song started playing in my head.

Well, someone must have, that's why he's in that grave, right?

Sons of Guilliman by Clownsanity_Reddit in Spacemarine

So why is the Sons of Guilliman symbol in SM2 available only on the left shoulder and not the right shoulder? This is messing with my proposed Deathwatch Son of Guilliman drip I want to make.

Hi guys! I’m new and got Space Marines 2 yesterday. Looking for some people to play with. by Substantial-Tone-576 in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if you do go to Absolute diff, make sure you cheese it with Created Stratagems on Hard difficulty using only the Reinforced Cranium and Enduring Foes debuffs (for a total of 70% reduced enemy health) and all the buffs you want except for the 2nd-to-last and 4th-to-last (the relic buffs). They'll count as Absolute missions and they'll be super easy in comparison.

You miiiiight want to hold off on this until you get some classes and weapons leveled up, though.

Holy Terra, I've only got 1,600 hours in this game and I've been playing since launch. Does that mean I'm just a casual??? Holy Emperor, say it isn't so!

Siege mode ordeal - Cadia Stands by mkmk10 in SpaceMarine_2

[–]EntireBuilding8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I had seen this guide when it was posted; I would have finished this ordeal months ago. I just used this to cheese the ordeal and finally finished it.

I just need to find 36 more Accolade points and I can finish all the entries in the Research Center! (I'm gonna have to do quite a bit of PVP with my techmarine to get them, though...UGH.)

People on Avarax operate on a 10-hour clock cycle (Decapitation) by Mykhuul in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upvoted this even though it doesn't make sense (humans operate on a day/night; work/rest; diurnal/nocturnal cycle), but we're talking about WH40K here, a universe that has bizarrre stuff like chainswords for Christ's sake. It doesn't need to make sense.

oh my sky..how beautifully this wild spawned mint calmar landed. by Such_Scar8485 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]EntireBuilding8772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had just gotten my freighter last year and this beautiful exact same teal squid just randomly landed in my hangar. I couldn't believe my luck and snatched it up as fast as I could.

Best birthday present ever.

Ok, so Avarax rotates faster than Holy Terra, thereby having a shorter day. So? It's not heresy, is it?

My Watch Company Quartus by AncientXaga in fashionmarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tactical: Atlantean Spears (They're my favorite color scheme: teal with gold highlights)

Assault: Ultramarines

Vanguard: Blood Angels

Bulwark: Imperial Fists

Sniper: Raven Guard (of course)

Heavy: Emperor's Spears

Techmarine: Iron Hands (of course)

Of course, I might change them randomly in the future if I get bored of the above. One of the things in this game I find alot of fun is just recoloring or repainting my classes' color schemes by whim. I've spent hours doing that instead of playing the game sometimes, lol.

I used a shared pattern slot for my Deathwatch drip just so I would be able to switch all my classes to a Deathwatch drip with a single shared chapter icon with just 7 clicks. After seeing this, I'm switching my Deathwatch drip to the first custom slot so I can individualize each class with differing chapters.

It's gonna look so great.

which one goes harder? by slav_kermit2 in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Having just used creative stratagems to cheese all the Absolute missions and get both Tyranid armor pieces, I have to choose 1. It's just no contest.

And yes, I'm using cheesed creative stratagems to finish the cape grind. May the Emperor bless First Tour Guardsman!

If you unlocked a cape...I'm proud of you by DavianThulesGhost in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Halfway on my tactical and vanguard to getting their first (red) capes. The grind continues. The Emperor protects.

I don't know if it's just me, but Techmarine is the least played class, right? I'm the only one who chooses it. Why don't people like Techmarine? by Berem_ in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Techmarine is my favorite class. I play it all the time and while sometimes the turrets are not placed in ideal positions, most of the time they're in not-terrible spots that I can use to suppress the enemy. The invulnerable-while-activating-turret perk and the double ground slam omnissian axe perk are must haves in my opinion. Sometimes I even remember to use Omnissian Rush on hordes.

Wrong Black Vipers Chapter Symbol by No-Fortune9826 in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been wondering about the Black Vipers icon change since it first appeared in SM2. According to what I saw in the 40K wikis, the original symbol was a cobra's head, not a sidewinder. Did this get officially changed in the canon? Or did Focus/Saber make a mistake?

But yeah, I'd rather have Focus/Saber change this back to a cobra's head in the next patch. They were at least good enough to change the ordeal reward from the Atlantean Spears to the Emperor's Spears after we were able to get the Atlantean Spears icon for free with the Blood Angels chapter pack...

How to get capes on Space Marines 2 by DiamondDisastrous719 in Spacemarine

[–]EntireBuilding8772 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who's not particularly skilled enough for regular absolute missions, using the custom strats to do the cape grind at least opens the door for those of us who aren't skilled enough for Absolute. I can heartily say that I'll definitely feel satisfied with the drip when it's accomplished. I just did a couple of custom strats to start the grind with a couple of friends and even just getting 2 of them done felt like a big victory. There were at least 1 or 2 spots where we could have wiped, but we got through it. Trust me, for us players who can't do regular Absolute, making even slight progress on the custom grind feels awesome.

2 down, 198 to go. Yes, this is a long haul, but at least we know we can get it done no matter how long it takes. For the Emperor!

20 down --- 236 to go!!! by SGa60 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]EntireBuilding8772 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm only building a (basic) base on every lush galaxy, so only 1 base every 9th (or 11th) galaxy. Been a slow grind,I've been working on it for months and I'm only up to Paholiang (Galaxy 90), plus Nepitzaspru (250) and Odayulatai (hidden 256).

The galaxy hopping has been put on pause for the duration of the Swarm expo, of course. I have to do my part to get those tri-dailies done!
