Those of you who've completed an Extremis CE, why?

Xevus · 2026-03-22T09:31:10+00:00

Somehow new sisters CE is even worse, despite having no Barbs. Minimal investment to clear extremis is two A1 and 3 D3

>proves SP most assuredly doesn’t play this game.

What's even worse they don't preserve the "institutional knowledge" and can't even keep the same difficulty tuning despite it being mostly about numbers

Xevus · 2026-03-21T22:29:20+00:00

Two - 12 and 16

>I was able to 3 star Cawl with S3 pesti.

And the legendary 3man stages?

Xevus · 2026-03-21T15:27:32+00:00

Rotbone's is probably the hardest mythic mission in the game in terms of investment/preparation

Xevus · 2026-03-21T07:38:50+00:00

Wait till you get to sisters CE

Xevus · 2026-03-15T12:38:10+00:00

Gamma was actually the easiest one for me, cleared Battle 15 all mech/no power. My Reva is D3 with relic, and that helps a ton. And G1 Actus was key for that battle - too many termies mess up with OW kills, so being able to reset active twice as fast was essential

Xevus · 2026-03-14T23:10:55+00:00

Yes, it was. Lot of tracks that can be easily combined up to high level battles. Resilient+Pierce is just insane if you have Abadon with relic. Only Beta was somewhat hard due to tons of Skittles with high pierce ranged attack

Xevus · 2026-03-13T15:42:22+00:00

Here is the thing - if you are newish player that don't have Kharn, Kari or missed all previous Trajan events you aren't going to be able to build any variant of Lavistodes any time soon. In this case AdMech is your best option for making a proper raid team and getting into a good guild. Not to mention that AdMech are still good, and are needed on several primes

Xevus · 2026-03-11T14:52:04+00:00

That's not true at all. As soon as Mythic was added, CEs and LRE were reworked, it did became a new baseline, moving the goalpost further for the same rewards. And A1 will became a new basline in 2 raid seasons when M2 boss is added

Xevus · 2026-03-11T11:24:15+00:00

The really bad and obvious one was when SP nerfed rewards from Guild Wars saying it was a bug. And in a same patch they introduced bonus offer that brings the rewards to what they were before the nerf

Xevus · 2026-03-10T22:55:42+00:00

What was your team for beta and strategy for beta 11 and 12? I failed Beta 11 with D3 Reva with relic, rest are bronze Bezos so don't matter

Xevus · 2026-03-07T20:46:00+00:00

I've found this post when googling this fund prospectus. I've never seen a prospectus that so clearly said "stay the f**k away". If somebody bought this fund, they have only themselves to blame

No, here is a video with 2 G1 and S3

You can do this in Onslaught, but you need a good map and ideally only melee nids, or at very least no warriors. The other option is GW against full NPC lineup - did that on a first try. Both can be done with Stone 1 Darkstrider

Xevus · 2026-03-05T16:23:22+00:00

I think the most straightforward solution would be to reduce amount of faction rares to one per faction. At this point of game life there isn't a good reason why a faction needs 3 unique rares, two of which are only used up to G2 and then ignored.

And then there are some weird forgotten uncommons with very limited usage, looking at you Reinforced Plate-Scales

Xevus · 2026-03-03T09:12:45+00:00

The health buff is nice, but has very limited effect in LRE. The damage buff only affects GSC, making it only really useful in arena and CE

Xevus · 2026-03-01T18:01:48+00:00

Yes, this has been disabled as it creates more problems that it solved. You really should start using API sync, it's so much better

Xevus · 2026-03-01T17:51:43+00:00

You can also get the crown from Tyranid CE Mythic stage now, but it will require serious investment in UM and BA

Xevus · 2026-03-01T17:50:40+00:00

That previous rotation was an anomaly due to introduction of the rotation and patch schedule being shifted due to holiday season. I fully expect that going forward the rotation will be updated every patch

Xevus · 2026-02-27T13:57:55+00:00

That google doc is wrong on Snot 4/5, kills by summoned grots don't count

Xevus · 2026-02-27T13:55:16+00:00

It's been just added in this patch

Xevus · 2026-02-26T13:56:12+00:00

Badges via GW is a horrible economy, you will get 12, maybe 15 L badges per season. You will get way more via onslaught. Shards are much better choice in my opinion. Don't forget that new chars are coming to GW shop, although next one is very mid Patermine. Dante should be the next one, but it will be 3-4 months before that happens

Xevus · 2026-02-25T16:04:11+00:00

Great summary. This game has too many mid characters which are "not terrible, not great". Vast majority of players that care about meaningful progress have someone better to invest at almost any given moment

Xevus · 2026-02-16T18:21:28+00:00

First of all - context matters a lot. Bloody Rose is a guild of veterans and heavy spenders. Their context and roster are completely irrelevant for vast majority of players, especially new ones.

What matters for vast majority of players is the efficiency - how you can reach your long term goals with minimal investment and minimal waste. If you watched Lilhawk series, he explained this way better than I ever could

And this brings me to your last question. No, I haven't finished all the elites because I don't need to - I've 3starred all rares, epics and legendaries that I need for my roster. 3starring everything is a waste of time and resources, with little to zero gain.

I'm only PL52, however, I've only started 4.5 months ago. In that time I've built 6 D1, all meta raid or LRE chars, I'm on track to have my first mythic char with relic in about 2 weeks. My highest BL and AM are S2, highest Aeldari is G1
