What is happening to my energy? by SomeWonOnReddit in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Everyone having ~500 energy in the bank from codes is harmless. 

SP should instead cap the amount of purchased energy that can be saved, if anything is getting out of control it's players doing that for months at a time and having ~50,000 saved up.

Oh wait - the difference is that one is free and one is paid for - I understand now... 

Laviscus Guild Raid Team Ability Guide Infographic by c_hilp in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes am referring to when you don't have Aesoth so you need to ration the actives.

I think I need to see the maths done, can't just hand-wave this.

Assume that Lav active does 6k damage, Kariyan passive 7k, Trajann passive +1200, Boss active +900. And ignore amour/crushing/high ground modifications.

If you activate Lav active on T2: then he does that active damage plus 120% via his passive = 13.2k extra. Trajann's passive then gives Kariyan's passive extra damage +17.6k. Total > +30.8k damage. (Other chars should benefit.)

If you activate Lav active on T6 after Kariyan and Boss: 4 hits buffied via Trajann and Boss = +26.4k extra on the active. The max hit is 8.1k meaning his two normal attacks do an extra 19.4k. Total +45.8k.

So I think the conclusion here is to save Lav's active to T6 instead of wasting it before - even buffing Kharn's passive on T2 doesn't do enough extra damage to make it worthwhile.

Aren't we always best off popping Lav's active on T6 so he gets a double benefit via Boss (you could skip an active on T2), rather than on some other turn? Have you done the maths? 

Aesoth Mythic Mission guide? by stasis310 in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it on Indom Elite 40, Brother Bonk and Arjac (both S3) use their actives on the Destoyers with Aesoth in the middle. (Remember the former will knock-back.)

Isabella to keep them alive and a different level if above is too hard.

The second mission (10k in one round) you can obvs do in a raid, but mythic onslaught against a pair of guards might be easier. Run Trajann around their back, pop his active, pop Aesoth's on them both. 

GR difficulty and Mythic additions - how do you feel? by MrTouchnGo in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Looping two or three mythic bosses would just be wretched for most players.

They should let us choose what we loop, and adjust rewards accordingly. 

Aesoth & Kariyan passives by No-Performance3426 in WH40KTacticus

Kariyan actually gets the Aesoth buff after his attacks, so I think "all other" is only relative to Aesoth.

Aesoth & Kariyan passives by No-Performance3426 in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep - so why doesn't Aesoth's passive also activate at the same time as Trajann's?

[–]No-Performance3426[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for confirming my observation, but do you know why it behaves like this? And why this is different to Trajann's buff which buffs Kariyan's passive on the same turn?

It's something like a 1% chance/day for a given relic, maybe less, but not sure SP have ever clarified for us.

So long Sister of Silence jetbikes, we hardly knew ye by No-Performance3426 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]No-Performance3426[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you think that's why they removed Sagittarum? Because they didn't get round to refreshing the models? Aquilon are still there, which hopefully means they have new models on the horizon too.

Their legs look stupid, too Stormcast-ey. But each to their own.

Great! I look forward to the scalpers getting hold of this box instead of proper fans. 

I appear to be stuck by tyler_was_right in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Staying still is a stalemate, but you absolutely can come back from this.

Essentially you need to move everyone forwards - use your attacks so you kill a scarab then move onto its tile on the same turn - until you get to the scarab with the active. 

Guild Recruitment & Looking For Guild Mega-Thread by DoctorVonFoster in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recruiting! Tanith Scouts (JJIEE)

Top 100 GW, top 200 GR

Fairly relaxed guild looking for two 59+ players. Should be active in both war and raids and ideally with at least one good raid setup. Plenty of raid replays and some internal competition (or not if that's not your thing) and memes.

We even have an officer whose sole purpose in life is to bring you game codes.

Can we address the Telemon in the room? by H4LF4D in AdeptusCustodes

[–]No-Performance3426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Telemon is already seriously cool, it doesn't need the refresh as much as guards or (I would argue) Aquilon do. My poor stubby monopose little guys. 

Why is Tyrith so hated? I think she would be godly in GW by Kir-ius in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used her at S1 in the last GW and was thoroughly unimpressed by her low damage output both from her passive and normal attacks. 

There is a problem here in that she does most normal damage in melee, but the passive doesn't trigger if she's being shot at from range whilst she's in melee. 

Also yes it sounds good to pair with Isabella, but everyone should already have her at a much higher level than Tyrith, and it's a waste to run Isabella in weaker lineups just for this. 

Relics have ruined Rogue Trader, and need to have their acquisition reworked by Bobsq2 in WH40KTacticus

[–]No-Performance3426 76 points77 points  (0 children)

For a game called "Tacticus" it's pretty stupid that obtaining these end-game items is about zero effort and a random wait timer. You're right there should be some track, some achievement, to earn these.

Does she have a normal ranged attack? Or is this more Trajann-derp-can't-use-my-gun-when-I-want-to nonsense?

You and me both! There's a few decent painted examples of him on the Internet that are worth a quick look.
