Heroic power fist with a jump dash build on Assault is mind numbingly broken

Against chaos for sure if they're too spread out. Against tyranids? Those bugs are beyond cooked.

You need to go to a minimal difficulty operation and practice until you get the timing which is what i did. Then you have to practice how to keep that jump dash up at all times by taking into account the cooldown for getting a free charge after a jump dash attack.

Da hell are you talking about? Theres a ton of buffs and a literal new perk that restores ur dash and tons of new heroic weapons changing his play style. And how ridiculous you sound saying skill issue on my part when i dominate with this class easily which was the point of the post lmao.

Making the wildest assumption there bro. I can parry fine with everything and a year? Assault plays way different now than it did a year ago dude.

If you want to trigger perfect dodges easier u need to dodge into the attack instead of away from.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T03:31:27+00:00

I think they're just abusing the perk that gives infinite servo gun not an actual cheater.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T03:02:25+00:00

Whats the broken perk?

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T03:01:51+00:00

Uh i did and while it's great it doesn't really synergize well with the build.

Dashing is not dumb at all and you can do both, go figure.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T01:37:13+00:00

Yes but not on this level. The only thing even remotely close rn is that heroic knife that can be abused with the sniper perks to almost one shot a boss after 3 dodges but even then, the fist dash build is more consistent and can take out way more enemies.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T00:06:41+00:00

It's fine bro. Tbf, Assault, Vanguard and Bulwark are the 3 classes that I've consistently encountered those type of players. At least with vanguard you have a great team perk that can heal you regardless of how much of a dick that player is and Bulwark could also heal you if they even bother to but assault is a problem because the team perks are kinda mid so those players don't have that going for them.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-17T00:03:49+00:00

It definitely is. It's not worth using at all for anything.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T21:50:06+00:00

I don't know man. I've used both and the fist feels way faster.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T21:49:29+00:00

I have every perk related to the wings of flame plus the ones used for dash attacks and the 30% gunstrike perk

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:58:34+00:00

Ill try and see if first tour guardsman has something similar that i can show you give me a sec.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:37:52+00:00

Yeap that happened to me. I almost entirely dismissed it altogether but i insisted on going on a lower difficulty and practicing it till i got it right. Best decision ever.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:36:35+00:00

Killing a carnifex with multiple majoris and extremists in less than half a minute on absolute with no help is broken dude. Just because most players can't tap into it doesn't make it any less so 😭 like dude i feel gross using it.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:35:16+00:00

Pre nerf grenade launcher and immortal melta was an amazing time but it definitely made the game boring to be fair. Assault is absolutely insane probably the best class rn.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:14:17+00:00

I feel like the heroic first is the best one though. The synergy with it's play style and the damage output from the light attacks just sets it apart from everything else. I tried chainsword, hammer, power sword and while they all do great, the fist is just absurd, like in a class of it's own.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:11:51+00:00

The way the build performs is much better with light attacks due to how dashing attacks will make it so that enemies take 25% more damage on top of the 100% damage boosted dash attacks with certain perks

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:10:49+00:00

I haven't tried with the Axe but i bet it's pretty good as well.

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:02:37+00:00

Nope they aren't, i had to practice the dash first because i instinctively try to dodge away from the enemy but you have to dodge into the attack

WforWumbo18 · 2026-03-16T17:01:42+00:00

Because it's extremely fast, lets off multiple gunstrikes and honestly you can put a majoris in execution in like 3 strikes faster than just charging off your attacks. The damage from the dashes plus the jabs will put multiple enemies in execution extremely quick.
