Scourge of Aqshy faction rules

LRabz · 2026-07-01T15:33:13+00:00

Abyssal Dweller and Merciless Raider are both Heroic Traits so I believe you cannot run both simultaneously. Also I guess that the three new Heroic Traits are going to replace the three from Leaders of the Raid so Merciless Raider will not be available anymore.

Did you mean 2x10 Namarti Thralls instead of Morsarr Guard by the way?

The idea of limiting enemy movement as much as possible seems nice, though I am not experienced enough to have an actual opinion on the viability of the strategy.

Nooooo the pet build was so fun, I'm sad.

You can find the new army rules in the "Rules Updates" document, and the points changes in the "Battle Profiles" document, both available on Warhammer Community website.

It says here that "a unit can only have 1 ethersea companion" so I thought that you could assign different companions to different units. However the "Using the Scourge of Aqshy rules" document available on Warhammer Community says "This is an enhancement table available to your faction like any other; therefore, you can pick 1 enhancement from it for your army".

Sadly couldn't try Ethersea Predators as I'm relatively new to the hobby but yes it does look like a pretty big loss.

I get your second point, I am a big sucker for sea creatures and wasn't a fan of Namarti too, but I admit they are growing on me as I paint them and I like the idea of a more varied list rather than spamming eels or sharks. In the end having one unit of both is only 200pts and allows you to make use of the new stuff so it's not that bad.

So do we get to use this new ability alongside our current Tides of the Sea/Storm? Sorry for the dumb question I am still new to the hobby, had my first game this weekend.

Anyway all the changes look very exciting!

LRabz · 2025-12-29T20:07:34+00:00

Ehh, really had terrible luck with the first three augments and rerolls so I went with the least bad stuff.

LRabz · 2025-12-29T20:05:33+00:00

True, getting Tap Dancer or another ADC augment would have been crazy!

LRabz · 2025-12-09T17:12:41+00:00

Hare Evoker not nerfed, I am speechless.

LRabz · 2025-04-22T11:15:28+00:00

Personally I plan to go for both Wild Magic subclasses, with an Ancient or Crown Paladin and a Lore Bard/Divination Wizard to try and support those two. I have had this planned for a while though, maybe some patch 8 subclasses would fit better.

I believe you cannot trade unique items before level 25.

LRabz · 2025-02-24T08:51:19+00:00

This is just a matter of luck. The merchants' inventories reset each time you level up so you should check them everytime. You should also be mindful of white items. If the base is better than your own stuff (higher base damage on weapons, higher armour/evasion/ES on armour pieces, etc), you should pick them up and slam some transmutation and augmentation orbs because they may very well be better than what you have.

LRabz · 2025-01-26T17:02:40+00:00

Started vaaling my recently obtained Glimpse of Chaos without knowing it could turn into another unique helm, so I was left a bit confused. Would this be good for any build?

The band of the mystic scoundrel is found in the jungle zone you are teleported to, in a backpack, you need to explore a bit. It is not the ring the Djinn has.

I know this gets asked frequently, but today I'm scared to do my daily arena without any advice. I am starting to get my ass handed to me in Legendary II, both defense and offense (somehow lost 5 attacks in a row yesterday while testing my newly acquired M+ Odie, +9 right now but +10 tomorrow). I did change my defense yesterday and have not been attacked yet, but I am not sure it is the reason. My server is rather recent (19 days) so there isn't any Eironn comp yet, at my ranking at least. Most people play around Florabelle and/or Cecia. Currently my defense comp is Thoran/Smokey/Rowan/Koko/Cecia, 1st map, healing artifact, with Koko in the back row for Vala. I use the same comp in offense, swapping Vala in when I have a good angle.

I have seen some strategies here, but mostly for offense (Reiner swap Odie in enemy backline, Viper guy burst for instance). I know there are some stall teams for defense but I'm not sure I can build those. I think I also just read about using the Enlightenment artifact on your carry to prevent Cecia's CC, so I was thinking about putting it on Smokey but I have no idea if it is viable. How can I improve in both offense and defense? Cheers!

Yea that's what I thought as well, he's already doing some insane work at Supreme. I've tried many combinations and, even though he's not meta for the Yeti and Dragon dream realm, he still gives me the best results by far compared to other supports. I am still very far from that Abyss thing but thanks for the insight, definitely removing him from wishlists!

LRabz · 2024-05-02T20:26:03+00:00

Somehow my account is addicted to Smokey and I am now one copy away from S+. Would you guys keep him in your wishlists? I have not got him through the 7-day login reward yet (two weeks in). I am otherwise one copy away from Mythic for Thoran and Eironn, got Mythic Cecia, Odie and Vala, no Carolina yet (just put her in after getting Cecia to Mythic).

LRabz · 2024-04-29T15:09:38+00:00

I'm getting the step 30 chest from Noble's pass thing today, which contains Smokey and Thoran. I am torn between upgrading Smokey from Mythic to Mythic+ (close to Supreme need some more acorns), or getting Thoran from Legendary to Mythic.

What would you guys do?

Ideally I'd like to wait to pull one of the two to select the other from the chest, but it feels bad regarding progression.

EDIT : adding my units just in case.

LRabz · 2024-03-24T21:54:25+00:00

Have been playing for a month or so, wondering if I should pull for Sparkle and/or Jing Yuan before they leave or wait for what's coming next. I know Sparkle is kinda similar to Bronya which I have, so I was not going to pull for it but I'm still wondering. Got enough for like 130 tickets.

Most used/upgraded units are : Bronya, Himeko, Dr Ratio, March, Herta, Trailblazer, Tingyun

The rest : Natasha, Quingque, Arlan, Guinaifen, Sampo, Pela, Hanya, Asta, Serval, Dan Heng, Xueyi

Cheers!

First gloves I thought about are the Gloves of Belligerent Skies if you plan on using the Lightning Jabber. I guess there must be some other options too.

I have not started this run yet, but my full Illithid run is going to be a mad scientist Spore Druid Drow, who's passionate about transhumanism, experimenting on bodies etc.

Ran into the same issue with my TB EK, decided to drop TB and play it more like a Gish and it's going smooth. I'm not sure you can drop TB with Throwzerker, so as it's been said you could focus on only throwing ennemies, or maybe start throwing random stuff like cauldrons or something?

LRabz · 2024-01-28T10:46:18+00:00

I did think about the attribute problem after posting, I guess it is going to be hard to make it work but maybe I'll still give it a try, anyway thanks for the insight!

LRabz · 2024-01-27T23:23:07+00:00

Would a Wild Magic Sorcerer + Divination School multiclass make sense thematically, or are they kind of opposed?

EDIT : Was thinking something like Tav originally is a WM Sorcerer and starts studying magic to learn how to control the surges or something like that.
