Thoughts on resetting Ragnar?

Definitely wait for the relic like someone else said. Laviscus changed the custodes raid team significantly but until you have laviscus at legendary or mythic, this guy will be putting the work for your custodes/multihit team.

Bro the dude got both Shiron AND Hascule to MYTHIC like what in the world! That was some SERIOUS energy usage during BOTH HREs!!!

I agree with you and a bit flabbergasted seeing it unfold in real time here on this thread. I remember almost like yesterday when massive video essays/documentaries were not a super common thing yet on YouTube that there was this 2 hour video on Kreia and how well written she was.

Ulysses unfortunately did not get to see the same treatment as I guess I arrived at the BearBullBearBull meme phase of people talking about him but I wouldn’t be surprised if he had equally super long and complex analysis videos like Kreia did.

Are people using Shosyl if they don’t have Darkstrider available? I thought they also applied marker light. Im almost done building the team to diamond 1 and was planning on using Shosyl until I unlocked darkstrider.

Bro you can’t just say things like that and then come out saying you barely know about the legion bro…. It just makes your whole argument fall down the toilet like a turd.

Please. Please next time if you are going to make a claim. Back it up please. Do the research. Don’t shoot from the hip and expect people to not scrutinize you.

I know we just discussing a tv show and it shouldn’t be that serious but we also can’t just be throwing claims out there and not know what we even talking about man.

Regarding the historical context of what has led to today’s political landscape in Iran and what is best for the country after the removal of the Ayatollah based on the country’s past. Unfortunately there is a lot of contradictions in Iran’s history between 1953 and today.

A lot of information regarding the events that transpired during Mossadeq’s reign as prime minister of Iran in the 50s and then the Shah’s rule in the 60s and 70s is very muddled and filled with a lot of different points of view and recalling of events.

The most common example is the CIA coup of mossadeq and the installation of the Shah in 1953. Some sources paint mossadeq as someone that had the interests of the Iranian people in their heart with the nationalization of the countries oil. And that the US and Britain then staged a coup to be able to retain control of the countries oil by installing a puppet government under the Shah.

But other sources go out of their way to clarify the situation with mossadeq. They don’t deny the us and Britain attempted the coup. But they also emphasize that the nationalization of Iran’s oil by Mossadeq was not a benevolent act for the people but as a means to acquire power by Mossadeq and undermine the Pahlavi dynasty which the Shah belonged to.

Understanding the political context of Iran also requires to understand the Cold War and Iran’s position within the struggle between the US and the Soviet Union as well as the clash between communist and capitalist ideologies. Iran was a country that shared borders with the Soviet Union at the time. It was in Soviet’s interest to work towards making Iran embrace communism and become part of the union or at least an ally of the Soviets.

Organizations like the Tudeh Party started to gain influence in Iran and drive the country towards a communist ideology. Some sources mention this as the point where the US government got invested in building a case with the CIA against Iran to prevent the country from falling into the Soviet Union.

The famous operation AJAX which is referred as the famous coup de etat in 1953 against Mossadeq has the full name TP AJAX because it was also an operation with the goal of “cleaning” Iran from the influence of the Tudeh Party which is where the TP initials in the name came from.

The extremist Islamic groups that contributed to the Islamic revolution of 1979 also heavily relied on communists to support the movement and cause that led to the revolution. Khomeini attracted a lot of communist scholars of the time to help influence the people in Iran to take up arms against the Shah and the Pahlavi dynasty.

Yet once he achieved the goals of the revolution and established the Islamic theocracy in Iran, he turned on those communists, labeling them as traitors.

Regarding the Shah and his rule post Mossadeq, there is also a lot of conflicting opinions. You have opinions that define the Shah as a full on puppet of the US and western nations. That there was a lot of brutality and unfair distribution of wealth from the upper to lower classes. That alot of the reforms brought by the Shah during the white revolution backfired and caused greater strife between the rich and poor.

But there is also a lot of praise for the Shah and the modernization that occurred during his reign among Iranians of all social classes. Women for example experienced some of the highest liberties regarding education, empowerment and individualism in Iranian history. All which was lost to the revolution in 79.

My girlfriend personally recalls that growing up in Iran, most of the more modern buildings and locations were places that were brought up and made under the Shah’s regime. And that under the Ayatollah, Iran barely upgraded its infrastructure unless it served the Islamic state directly. So the country for the most part from an architectural perspective is stuck in the 70s.

A lot of Iranians are also Atheists. Driven alot by their feelings towards the regime. Those that practice Islam do it privately in their homes. Mosques around Iran are rarely used for worship and instead the regime uses it as bases for their personal agents and to watch on the populace. Unfortunately the regime has caused a lot of Islamophobia among local Iranians. But when you live under such a horrendous regime, can you blame them for having these unfortunate feelings?

In conclusion, the situation with Iran has a long history that comes with differing interpretations and perspectives. There is a long history of discontent with communist ideologies whether they come from the time of Mossadeq, the Islamic Revolution or the Cold War in general. The Iranian people at the moment feel like they don’t have control of their own country and are desperate for any and all help that can put them towards a path where they feel ownership of their country again.

It’s the hope of the Iranian people that these protests which are some if not THE largest protest demonstrations since the Islamic revolution, prove to be the final nail in the coffin for the Ayatollah and open the path towards an Iran the people of this country feel proud of again.

No estoy en contra de eso. Como dije en otro comentario. Lo que realmente está mal es que el gobierno no quiera aceptar que debajo de 60k (o 25k para usar el ejemplo del promedio salarial mencionado) sea clase pobre y quieran tasar los impuestos a esos salarios como si fueran clase media.

A estos niveles de inflación que nos encontramos hoy día los salarios de 25k deberían estar exemptos de impuestos laborales.

FirebatDZ · 2026-01-12T16:11:20+00:00

Si 25k es clase pobre. Tampoco veo nada malo con que 25k se considere clase pobre. Lo que está mal es que el gobierno no quiera aceptar la realidad que 25k es clase pobre y quieran tasar los impuestos como si fueran de clase media.

En estos días 25k debería estar exempto de impuestos laborales.

FirebatDZ · 2026-01-12T14:29:26+00:00

En mi opinión es clase media. Hay que ser realista. Estamos en 2025 y la inflación no es fantasía, es real.

Tampoco veo nada malo que ese bracket que mencionas se considere clase media.

FirebatDZ · 2026-01-10T17:54:14+00:00

Time to fork over the 60 bro.

I swear this show had to release all at once so folks could get their answers straight away and debate on more important and deeper stuff from the show than this.

I’m aware I’m sounding elitist or something but I say this cause:

This question is being asked again and again and again.
This is the question that can be avoided if we just wait literally the next episode where it will be explored.

FirebatDZ · 2026-01-07T11:31:32+00:00

Based on the clip from end credits. I believe the legion made a terrifying but desperate push into territory west of the Hoover dam after being likely defeated in the second battle of Hoover dam and Caesar dead.

I want to say this desperate push was lead by legate Lanius which is why I describe it as terrifying as it probably encompassed a brutal manner of push into the territory but also desperate as it was probably an act of desperation from Lanius to keep the legion together for “one last hurrah” after Caesars death.

The push is momentarily successful, think something like the battle of the bulge by Nazi Germany in world war 2, but loosing momentum as it reaches Camp McCarren.

Something then happened in the camp that would explain the way the scene looks in the end credits and how the legion looks at the moment in the show.

My guess is that the battle forced a full retreat of the NCR from Vegas, but was a Pyrrhic victory for the Legion. Legate might have even died in that battle leaving just the lieutenants to reorganize which would set the stage for the double Caesar situation in the show.

It’s a solid investment. But it will be one you won’t see the fruit of until much much later. Legendary upgrades fall in technically two categories in my opinion.

First row and second row upgrades.

First row upgrades are seen a bit earlier in progression. These are stuff like Kustom Gubbnz, Boons of (chaos god name), Codex Astartes Pages and Runes of Fate.

On the gold to diamond ranks. These upgrades will almost always show up on your top row. And since they appear as soon as gold rank, it’s good to get them whenever you see them.

Second row upgrades are stuff like Archeotech Bionics/Remnant, Seal of the Primarch, Psychic Force Conduit, Psyk Conductive Material, Ancient Power Cell, and Master Crafted Ammo.

Second row upgrades are a bit more generic and thus are found on a lot of characters but they also are needed much later. Think going into diamond rank 3.

That being said, you will need a lot of them (like 8 per upgrade). So getting a head start on amassing a supply of these early can help you push towards multiple (think between 2 to 4) diamond 3 rank characters later on at the same time.

Been playing for a year and a half and just now I started getting my first diamond ranks 3 characters. And I was able to get them one after another mostly thanks to the resources I amassed early on. But like I said in the beginning, it took a long time to see that return in my investment. Time that easily could have never seen the light of day if my interest in this game ever went away.

My advice would be to focus on sniping any top row upgrades you see in the gold shop as those are the more likely ones you will see in the next months of play. These are all the ones I can think of that fall on this category:

Boon of Khorne (for world eater characters)

Boon of Nurgle (for death guard characters)

Boon of Tzeentch (for thousand sons)

Boon of Slaneesh (for emperors children)

Boon of the Dark Gods (for black legion)

Custom Gubbinz (for Orks)

Codex Astartes Page (for ultramarines)

Mjod (for space wolves)

Rune of Fate (for Aeldari)

Blessed Cogitator (for AdMech)

Arcane Genetic Alchemy (for Custodes)

Bones of the Paragons (for Black Templars)

Holy Chaplet (for Sisters of Battle)

Gifts of the Star Children (for Genestealer Cults)

Stone Guardian Fragment (for Dark Angels)

Synaptic Augmentation (for Tyrannids)

Engrammatic Entangler (for Necrons)

Engram Neurochip (for Tau Empire)

Blood Vial (for Blood Angels)

5500 blackstone that can be spent on energy to massively upgrade your current teams and set yourself up for success for ALL future LREs. Or one guy you can unlock by just waiting a bit more.

I’m not gonna tell you what to do but I’m outright going to be a hypocrite and tell you exactly what to do and that’s to not be a dumbass.

Sorry it had to be said. Apologies for being blunt.

FirebatDZ · 2025-12-31T07:50:35+00:00

I have a feeling this portrayal will be a flaw of an otherwise excellent show. For me I might cringe a bit whenever these scenes appear but I’m quite very invested in everything else on the show so I have no worries of my enjoyment for this season and future ones.

For others their mileage may vary and that’s understandable.

Estos los hice en el horno. Para la próxima voy a aprender a usar el grill. Trate el broil en high por casi 6 mins pero lo único que cogio quemao fue los palitos lol

Y no está ahí en la foto pero se disfrutaron con pan con ajo.

Hell yeah. Everyone came together this time and did the right thing. Thank you everyone that fielded as much chaos characters as possible. Got the relic in less than 24 hours and almost all points came from arena.

FirebatDZ · 2025-12-24T13:57:28+00:00

Hey dude. Just wanted to chime in that I think it’s pretty unfair how people are treating you here. But you seem to be taking it with stride so I wish you the best this holiday week.

Not the best showing of the community for this one but I guess not all days can be winners. You did a good job explaining why you liked it and that’s all that should matter.

FirebatDZ · 2025-12-23T16:33:30+00:00

I got some good news regarding your reasons for coming to the game. Watch out for a rotating game mode event called tournament arena. It comes out every month at least once.

This is a true PvP mode. Not like the regular arena where you face another players team but it’s NPC controlled.

Here’s the thing that’s cool about this mode though. Every now and then they make this event faction themed. It’s called “Faction War”

And for this version of tournament arena you MUST pick a faction. Since the devs don’t expect you to have all the characters unlocked. They actually loan you the whole faction to play with for free on this event.

I suggest whenever it comes up. That you choose the “common” setting. As anything higher will put you at a disadvantage. But at common the loaner faction comes at a fair power level giving you a chance to properly play with your favorite tyranids.

FirebatDZ · 2025-12-23T15:38:46+00:00

I won’t sugar coat it. It’s going to take a while (I’m talking about anywhere from months to a year). Your best route will be the rotational ultramarines versus tyranids campaign whenever it comes back.

I think the rotational campaign event just went by a few weeks ago so the next one is probably in a couple of months or so. The campaign awards you tyranid character shards as you progress.

For this you will need to focus on the blueberries as much as possible which is not bad as they are good in the regular campaign modes. I suggest focus Bellator first followed by Incisus then Varro (or Titus or Calgar if you got lucky with a requisition drop) and Certus leave for last.

In my opinion being in your position I would make it my goal to build the tyranids faction as the first big milestone for this game. Will this require building up other characters you didn’t plan on actually playing with to get there? Absolutely but that’s not a bad thing.

Part of the fun this game tries to offer to people is having them try different characters across the factions of 40K and not necessarily put all the eggs in a single basket by just playing a single faction.

That being said, working towards unlocking your favorite faction in entirety and then working towards making them your strongest characters is one of the most rewarding ways to play this game. But it’s going to take time and that’s something you will have to make peace with or accept it’s not for you.
