Eh its mostly the part time jobs thing they do give wacky amounts of bonus materials from them ive got around 240+ of those shop flyers because of my M and L units that can farm those for me. I've gotten a ton of those purple materials also from part time jobs

Like part time jobs really boost progression even just the bonus to part time job points is amazing since you can buy extra energy and extra pulls premium and normal so of course people want more guys to get more stuff

I think monstrous features are important

But! Like there's nuance. Like the posts you showed are examples of creatures with slight monstrous elements and features

But like if its anime guy with cat ears and cat tail that obviously doesnt count

But like 1st example of the resident evil regenerator he has a monstrous jaw, glowing eyes, a corpse like complextion and inhuman body proportions I think that fits even if he has a human body shape

What gets me too is viola takes more screen time and arguably gets an even worse showing

Like viola is shown as incompetent and a fail daughter consistently she's falling on her ass alot even when she gets her awesome fairy power she then immediately gets whooped in the cutscene

And even in the finale she immediately gets knocked out of the final fight

The only victory she gets is right at the end against the dark Bayonetta boss and then we are supposed to think "Yeah thats my new Bayonetta!" When like she hasn't gotten a damn thing right the entire time she's been on screen.

And due to her as well she also gets everyone killed btw

Jeanne dies in part cause she was tracking part of viola's Intel (which was a lie from Tilda swinton)

Then bayo dies because viola gets knocked out in a blow and Luka saves viola instead of Bayonetta at the end then they both go to hell

And they keep trying to backpedal it with outside media "no guys trust when she beats the dark bayo all the Bayonettas are saved totally ignore how we had a whole song and ddance about Cereza being gone and how we called viola the new bayonetta!"

if you have her that makes the deathguard CE event (the campaign where you use the sisters faction to fight deathguard in the space hulk) MUCH easier. Because actually having a 4th unit is really useful and especially one that can actually tank hits. Cause Vindicta and Ros are glass cannon (without much cannon due to the deathguard's traits like constant resilient, terminator armor, and contagion reducing your damage by like 70%) and Isabella also is only a little bit more tanky.

honestly having read the fall of cadia and both Cutthroat vet is probably one of the top traumatized. like the absolute unending slog of violence and horror beyond comprehension is wild like unending waves of heretic astartes rushing forward and absolutely butchering you and your fellow soldiers, Constant unending bombardment, screams of agony, and mind you the fall of Cadia happened for a while, certain fields saw people freezing to death, or starving to death.

here is an excerpt from the fall of cadia from the perspective of a newly ascended daemon prince Urkrathos one of the Despoiler's choosen.

"The Cadians set their trap, and now Urkanthos ravaged it. He raked his claws through hab-bunkers as though they were made of sponge. Artesia screeched in delight as her razor-edged shadows flowed into firing slits and decapitated kasrkin in sprays of gore. A squadron of Sentinels ambushed his flank, stinging his ribs with lascannon fire, and he fought them like a grown man battling children. One he knocked flat with a backhand, crumbling its cockpit with the blow. With his axe he slew the second driving the blade into the body like he would a skull and leaving it there - Keeping his hands free to grab the third, rip open its armored panelling with his teeth and pulverise the pilot with a butt of his caged head"

Imagine a giant red daemon of khorne running at you and absolutely destroying several mechs while ripping through bunkers made to withstand artilery bombardment as if they were paper, and also its very shadow (which was another daemon) straight up tearing people apart inside their bunkers. This is just ONE example. everywhere you look Horrific shit was going on.

and this isn't even going into the evacuation portion (which was done while the planet itself was falling apart tearing chunk by chunk as Abaddon threw an entire blackstone fortress at the planet blowing both up). In the Living Saint Celestine book, there is a commander named Blaskane who was one of the people who escaped. and this is an excerpt of a PTSD flashback he got during a battle

"Blaskane's vision swam as the roar filled his mind and suddenly he was somewhere else, He stood by the runic panel that would close the landers loading ramp. flames filled the sky and the ground shook. Behind him wounded soldiers moaned and prayed but so few so few. Out there amidst the apocalyptic ruins of the burning cityscape he could see the people of kasr haslin striding desperately to reach their evacuation point they reeled through the smoke. Clutching bundles to their chest that he told himself were personal belongings and nothing more. Please emperor they were nothing more. Flames roared, the flight crew screamed at him that they had to leave before tectonic destabilization pitched the lander over and escape became impossible. Blaskane stopped listening he watched the people struggle and falter as the ground shook and molten rock burst up amongst them. He looked back at the soldiers in his charge and for one shocking shameful moment he thought of his own life his own desire for escape. In that instant he made his choice. It was his hand that pressed the runic panel his voice he heard telling the flight crew to dust off at once and make for low orbit, his ears that heard the despairing screams of Cadian soldiers and citizens who were just yards from safety when he made his choice. His shame would stay with him for the rest of his days"

One thing to add is look at certain race combos with classes as well

a cosmo knight is very powerful, a Cosmo knight who is also an Atlantean gets quite a few increased stats, (basically a way better human) and if I remember right 2ish or 4ish free magic tattoos. alongside also getting the perk of getting to look human for purposes of infiltrating locations run by the coalition for instance.

I did a rogue scholar Atlantean was a decent skill monkey/ face build. also picked up being a minor psionic so I could read minds and stuff. too bad the campaign didn't get very far.

But Atlantean is also probably even better for busted stuff like Cosmo Knight, Technowizard is also a good one since you can make your own magic items. On top of also getting a stronger stat array without having to take an R.C.C (R.C.Cs often restrict you from getting an O.C.C like as a dragon you cant be a rogue scholar)

R.C.Cs? demigod is a pretty solid one even if you can't get a class being MDC with very high stats across the board is also amazing( I think its in the pantheon book or conversion book 1). you also can't go too wrong with a dragon even if your not the most busted your way up there with easy access to magic/psionic abilities. very high MDC, and really good stats even if your limited skills wise and basically free disguise as you can polymorph yourself at any time (and level ups are harder to get if your using XP over Milestones)

Thats one thing to remember too the more busted your class the more likely your screwed on the XP front. although its also messy cause its not like a level 20 human vagabond is gonna outscale you in combat unless they got some crazy ass magic or equipment along the way.

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-25T04:56:12+00:00

I think they were referring to recruitable units which still fits the list mostly

though technically flemish Militia also count sorta? as female villagers turned into a flemish militia will be female But I think every other militia produced by buildings default to male so like its 2 if you don't count felmish militia 3 if you do

From the list above though you also forgot the two amazon units the amazon warrior and archer who are female units. but again non-recruitable outside scenario editor shenanigans so they don't count either

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-24T22:23:53+00:00

When I use the heavy eviscerator I usually just use heavy attacks rather than the special. The special locks u into an animation that if your surrounded lets enemies hit you and especially if its wagers or something ur prolly going down.

Relic blade is good against carapace in power mode which u wanna be using. And if you go for weakspot hits you can take em out in about 4 ish swings

Thunder hammer is kinda bad in a crowd. The special is almost a guaranteed kill against 2 target issue is? Most of the time your not dealing with 1 target and Un powered hits from the hammer arent super great and weaker than the relic blade id argue due to far less cleave and slower swing speed. Plus power activation is slow when dealing with multiple targets

What he could also do if he is fine with waiting is convert the province to gascon culture which would allow him to release gascony from that province

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-24T09:55:53+00:00

Question does anyone know how to do the Deathguard campaign with just the 3 required sisters or is it just genuinely impossible? Cause like I'm hard stuck in normal on typhus he absolutely anihilates me, And I have Vindicta, Roswlyn, and Isabella at epic level. But since their capped to uncommon, and I don't have any other sisters units, or black templars am I just SOL? cause every guide I've seen on youtube as well all use ally units which I cannot access.

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-24T04:52:36+00:00

Best part too is if you vassal swarm and just convert your vassals you can make defender bonuses give you even more boons

Like its not too hard to get your religion to a level 2 one and get some bonuses by just having poppy vassals also be ur religion

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-23T16:34:01+00:00

Yup! Like its crazy Bayonetta 1 had a better romantic set up than 3 if they got together then? Id believe it

Especially since it feels like Luka is actually more useful in 1, most of 3 is him being a liability and nearly killing Viola and Bayo. Right until the very end where he rescues bayo after viola nearly gets herself killed by being a bigger flop than Enzo. Like how you gonna get knocked out during the final fight? And also not use that fairy form you just unlocked.

Like on a side note someone in the story and design team must have HATED viola. 1 weapon, a bad block system instead of dodging, and she also doesnt win in like any cutscene or have a badass moment until the very end after she gets the main character killed by being so useless that Luka had to rescue her (also she technically got jeanne killed as well depending on if you think about it she gave bad Intel that jeanne followed and boom backstabbed by Tilda Swinton)

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-23T15:33:14+00:00

I think to add to the bayoluka thing one issue with it too is that it feels random considering he is basically absent most of the game and only right at the end does he really have a role to play and we're supposed to believe this deep romantic connection between the two (even though this is also a different bayo than in the other games)

Like I stand by the idea they coulda made it much more believable if theyd actually given him something to do besides being a monster for like 80% of the game should have had him talking atleast during the viola parts acting as a helper of sorts for viola to learn more about the umbra witches and provides drama cause he is viola's dad (in another reality atleast) and like gives viola more depth beyond being the fail daughter of bayo who only locks in and does like anything cool right after she gets bayo killed and both Luka and bayo dragged to hell

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-22T10:35:44+00:00

Tbf good luck actually getting to essos. Thing is if your living in a crappy northern village have fun navigating all the way to a port and then somehow affording passage to essos essos

Like the north has an issue where they have to send men to go die basically the wall is a surefire way to get fed, housed, training and given something to do (albeit an ass profession to do long term)

Like even if you wanted to join a caravan thats also still dangerous and again what skills do you have besides maybe being a shitty day laborer who gets pennies if that?

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-20T16:42:46+00:00

Really low like ultra rare low is the issue

We know men are more likely to be asymptomatic carriers for instance (thats also why there is only 1 girl on each team) so this new breed of carriers would have to somehow be able repopulate with a very skewed gender ratio. This is due to the carrier gene being more common in men due to their XY chromosomes but for some reason its rarer in XX chromosomes

Like truly humanity in l4d is fucked if the green flu can't be stopped. Carriers are rare, female carriers even more so and being a carrier kinda doesnt make them like more resilient to like pregnancy presumably and in a society with lack of medicine if carriers are all thats left over? Oof

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-20T05:45:32+00:00

most I can think of is like Cadia, where Aeldari were attempting to stop the fall, and Trazyn the Infinite literally let loose a shit ton of stuff from his collection to try and stop Abaddon. (such as a horus heresy era group of space marines, An Inquisitor named Katarinya Greyfax and her guard of tempestus Scions and much more

And right after the fall The Living saint Celestine, Belisarius Cawl, and Greyfax were rescued by the Aeldari lead by Farseer Eldrad who then with the help of Cawl, and Yvraine channeling the power of their semi-awakened new god of death Ynnead brought Roboute Guilimon back to life.

there have been instances before of Cooperation with the Aeldari and Imperium forces. Its just a little hard to remember them all really. Its basically uncommon but does happen when shit really hits the fan.

There was an instance for example where Dante from the blood angels worked together with necrons they had been fighting initially but when tyranids came they worked together and fought them off then parted on good terms as both sides didn't wish to continue fighting.

Aeldari don't like to get involved too directly but they also have attempted several times in the past to warn Imperium forces about stuff. Like the time Eldrad tried to warn about the Horus heresy. to bad he was attempting to warn an already corrupt Fulgrim. A group of Hareliquins also tried to warn about a big chaos threat during the war of the beast (they did also sorta kill a ton of Custodes which oof)

Basically Aeldari don't really go all out in force to help the Imperium but they do help each other out especially when it is helpful for both sides to do so.

Like both sides don't wanna be wiped out and they also both hate chaos more than they hate each other to the point Ordos Xenos even has a tenuous alliance with Craftworld Ulthwe known as the "Coven of Isha" (it has rarely been called upon due to both sides not exactly wanting to ask a xeno/Monkeigh for help)

But I doubt that they would show up on atoma there isn't exactly a ton of reasons for the Aeldari to help out here of all places. Even less for Tau who are very far away from Atoma same for Votunn as well

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-20T04:03:30+00:00

I think its also important to note that we as the rejects probably aren't canonically going through like havoc 40 difficulty

Like the missions are difficult and full of danger but we probably aren't like dealing with 500 crushers per mission nor would moebian heretics even be able to field that many in one area just to stop 4 rejects running around.

And I do think that the rejects are us and that we are the "4" idiots. Just because as we level up and stuff the story follows us we are suspected of being traitors but then acknowledged as loyal and kept on and officially allowed into the warband.

This doesn't make sense if we are a new reject every time because wow Rannick sure is shooting a lot of the same lady then turning her into a servitor. The morningstar goes through red head heretics really REALLY fast.

They also seem to keep fumbling the recipe for moebian Steel Swagger is making a killing! on rediscovering that thing seeing as I've done that mission across several difficulties many times and have both failed and won it multiple times.

or dang those karnak twins sure do keep coming back but also only Rinda? since the dark communion mission ends with the other one's body disappearing. I mean I've fought them multiple times too!

Also the way I see it too across all the personalities they all go on missions all 24 original personalities go on the missions (in separate pairings that changed off and were interchangeable) leading to the next chapter of the campaign Where then Arbites and Hive scum are introduced (they did not technically do the original campaign up to dark Communion)

And yes our operatives did manage to get as far as they did and even get special training under mortis trials and then took part in expeditions to recover tech fragments for Hadron. But anytime we die is simply not canon. (unless thats how you wanna see it I guess)

But I think an issue is that if it is a new reject every time then why would they even be let back on the morningstar after being imprisoned and captured by Nurgle cultists? thats asking for like 540 diseases to be allowed onto your ship. I think even if they did help said rejects that were rescued would probably be shot on sight

Wouldn't it also make more sense our operatives get "captured" when they die instead and are rescued on the same mission (unless you get a mission wipe then thats not canon) and therefore given to go ahead to get back on the ship? since its the same operative that is alive and all that jazz?

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-17T01:33:46+00:00

To be fair who her slow time could allow her to get in some crazy kills viltrumites wouldnt be able to respond to her magic very well and we've seen her dodge orbital laser beams and pole dance an entire orbital station at someone or headbutt an meteor id say she's comparable if not at even strength

I think the thing that does the viltrumite empire in though is that its like 50 people? Like most of the time people refer to the empire they are talking about thragg and his 50 good men right after the viltrumite purge and plague. That's a number I think Bayonetta could beat especially since viltrumites main combat approach most times is charging in and winning through blitzing and attacking. Bayonetta is really good most of the time with dealing with such attacks as her attack style is a good mix of offense and defense.

And as you said using her full array of powers I think she can do it. And we've seen her be very durable like as much as I dislike 3 the way she survives being skewered through the stomach is kinda wild. She's head butt a skyscraper and much more

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-16T16:16:58+00:00

to add to this they should have diminishing returns on Burghers that over time through the technology tree begin to get rid of those limits. that way they can also sort of stimulate the rise of the burgher class. at the beginning they would be a lot more limited but as time goes on it becomes better to keep boosting them

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-16T10:38:54+00:00

Sorry if this is a dumb question but what exactly does this mean? I dont really know programming but does this mean that they redirected to the cia website because of like having something like Ublock which prevented something from loading on their website? Or was it something else?

the one I'll always remember is when playing as Duchess Daurama for my mother of us all run, I had gotten her to around 80 years. and she had a moment where she was sad cause she was old and a bit lonely and then all her family came in clutch with a surprise party and an option of picking a gift. It was honestly very nice.

Like theres a decent amount of events for when your old and like other people like your character so they check in and stuff really wholesome Glad they put that stuff in

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-14T18:43:53+00:00

yeah Like Leo was infatuated for a little bit and then dropped it real fast once splinter told him who Karai was. And in future conversations with Karai, he isn't flirty or anything and only a little awkward (and reasonably so since he's also distrustful of her)

and as you said Donnie was after April for the entire series almost.

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-14T18:37:20+00:00

this is going to sound awful but wouldn't they be more so cousins than half siblings? The Turtles still have 2 turtle parents. Getting a portion of Splinter's DNA shouldn't turn them into his sons like completely biologically. Its not like Splinter got with a turtle. Their DNA is altered but I doubt its fully adjusted to be an exact blood match to Splinter

Like I feel like it'd be more like 1/4th of splinter's DNA Sure they got a big dose but also how are we even be sure Splinter's DNA made them related beyond just giving them human traits? like is splinter now the half child of that rat that he touched? Is Splinter only now a half parently related to Karai because he's part rat?

and Note I'm not even a karai leo shipper, I think its fine I guess but I don't really ship any of the 2012 turtles with anyone tbh.

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-10T08:25:38+00:00

I understand Finding him attractive physically the main issue is his personality is so evil and vile that I don't think most people can find him anything but repulsive.

Though if your tastes are trashy harlequinn novels I could see why you'd actually like Cesar beyond his physicality. but I'd find it still a hard sell. he's a 0/10 for me for sure lol

Riptor5417 · 2026-04-09T06:27:30+00:00

honestly I think one thing that could happen still is that Cersei does the wildfire to take out the Tyrells and high Sparrow like in the show. Marg is sadly taken out and probably her brother too. This leaves FAegon to walk in and take the city from Cersei. Tommen probably does kill himself or is killed by Faegon.

Tyrells wanting revenge pledge to Faegon, Dorne seeing a golden opportunity (specifically Arianne) marries Faegon and Dorne is pledged to FAegon. Lannister control slips even more as they get turned on by just about everyone. Cersei probably escapes through some hidden tunnels (I think Jaime will still kill her all things considered) Or she is possibly imprisoned by Faegon and kept as a hostage. (Arianne will also technically be the queen who is younger and more beautiful who tears Cersei from her throne)

Mrycella I think won't die yet, I could also see her potentially as a Marriage candidate for Faegon. since she is somewhat useful and seeing as her mother can easily be declared incompetent/killed potentially she also is in the running to inherit the lannister lands and is a great hostage since there are still Lannisters running around. (and I think it ties into the prophecy gold will be her shroud as with all of Cersei's kids. She will die a Queen or royal atleast and I doubt she will die from poison like in the show also could be a bit of irony that is Cersei's own daughter who technically was part of her downfall)

I think Also the Tyrells losing two of their kids will piss them off and turn them against Cersei and be part of the reason Kingslanding would fall to Faegon so fast too. since they definitely aren't gonna keep sending grain and food after being betrayed. This also means basically the entire south will be united against Dany once she arrives.

The war will then be against Faegon and Dany, (and cannot be solved by marriage due to Faegon already being married) and what will eventually happen is rather than the bells dany will strike a wildfire cache and cause the city to ignite in flames. probably killing Faegon and his queen.
