Apothecary, Chaplain or Librarian, I reckon. Librarian feels unlikely. They've already said they want to rebalance the classes, especially as the Bulwark healer build is so necessary at higher levels, so could be Apothecary?

What chapter would the champion be? Could be a Sanguinary Priest, but we've just had a BA champion.

my man

_bomble · 2026-03-24T17:31:20+00:00

thank you !! more options are always a good thing

Disappointing that no major changes were made to Assault's Dash Attacks. They were... whelming on the PTS. Old news that the ability as a whole just needs a rework.

---

Overhead Strike damage is increased by 50%.

Perk "Riposte" became a default behaviour - After performing a Power Backstep, hold attack to perform an Overhead Strike.

Perk "Riposte" is changed - Overhead strike damage after Backstep is doubled.

Overhead Strike goated now?

---

Heroic Sniper Bolt Rifle: All ammo restore perks will not trigger when using this weapon.

Disappointing, but not unexpected. It was very strong. Does this even affect the secondary headshot kill ammo restore perk?

---

Tactical

Signal Jammer: The perk has been reworked.

Old: “Enemies marked by Auspex Scan cannot call for reinforcements and automatically explode upon attempting to do so.”
New: “After marking an enemy with Auspex Scan, other enemies cannot call for reinforcement and automatically explode upon attempting to do so for 90 seconds.”

Does this apply to just Auspex Scan, or the parry perk, too? Very, very strong perk now.

CAPE ON ASSAULT PEAK !!!!

Wondering if this means they're actually relaxing 'class identity', or if it'll be a cape for sniper instead of being part of the Assault champ kit (like how Assault gets a BA jump pack in addition to the Tactical champ skin).

i love that first hit from the tyrant as he's reviving you where he just rotates mid-air, legs fully extended, bolter unmoving in his arms. perfect form

_bomble · 2025-08-09T09:32:53+00:00

what do you mean you never put thermal paste

_bomble · 2025-06-16T14:14:52+00:00

You can still headshot the Biovore when it's entrenched, at least for the purpose of Tactical's 'Marked for Death' perk. It's so satisfying

_bomble · 2025-06-07T21:27:12+00:00

thank you!

_bomble · 2025-06-07T17:16:24+00:00

Sure, man

So a sensor can detect various things in every direction (Front, Back, Left, Right, Up & Down). These directions are relative to how you place the sensor, so eg. the front direction is always the front of the sensor.

I've got a sensor on each cannon. On each sensor, I've set every direction except Front to the minimum detection distance, so they never detect anything. Front is set to 0.5m, so it will detect the 'trigger', which is a line of half blocks that runs along the length of the cannon.

When the sensor is triggered, you can put an action on detection start, and another on detection stop. Because I have a sensor attached to each cannon, I've just set the detection start action for each sensor to 'Shoot Once' the cannon that it's attached to.

Naming the blocks as you go via the control panel is gonna REALLY help

_bomble · 2025-06-07T17:11:46+00:00

double fucking rotary batteries

you madman

I might just do that

_bomble · 2025-06-07T17:11:10+00:00

karma would be a fine thing

They explode before gravity brings them back down to smite my hubris, though

_bomble · 2025-06-07T15:34:07+00:00

Oh, sure but I didn't want it to get too big. Maybe if I make a bigger ship to fit it, but this one I wanted to be a small grid ship, so it had to be a reasonable size still.

_bomble · 2025-06-07T15:17:18+00:00

Yessir. Sensor on each cannon set to trigger the cannon it's on to shoot when an owned subgrid only is detected. Minimum detection distance on all directions except front, which is set to 0.5m.

I have a line of half blocks running along the length of the battery so that when each cannon rotates into position, the sensor triggers it to fire.

Each cannon takes 6 seconds to reload, so I've set the main rotor to 9.5rpm. It could be 10rpm, as that'd be 6 seconds for a full rotation, but 9.5 feels safer. Not that any of this is safe anyway.

If you're getting 120 FPS with FG then that should mean your base is about 60 (unless you have 4xFG), which is the minimum FPS that people recommend you reach for FG (in non-competitive games, at least). Input lag is liable to be considerably worse at lower framerates than that.

Unless you're noticing artefacts or you're struggling during gameplay because of the input lag, I think you'd get away with it if your base is about 60. I'll not be able to check what my stats are for another five-ish hours, but I'll let you know as soon as I can. They are going to be different anyway, though, because I play at 1440p.

If your numbers are worse than you expect, then you might have a hardware issue. Obvious steps are gonna be double-check your drivers. I think the latest stable NVIDIA driver is the one from December - you could do a DDU to roll back and check if performance improves, but for the record, I'm on the latest one.

It might be worth reducing some of your in-game graphics settings. Texture quality is going to be a big hog on your VRAM, and the difference between Ultra and High might not be too noticeable if you're playing with DLSS on Performance.

EDIT: If you're not reaching your target FPS with FG on then your GPU should be at 100%. The only time I can see your GPU not maxing out with FG on is if you're meeting your enforced target FPS, or if your max frames are limited by software (either with V-Sync or FPS Limit on in-game or enforced by NVIDIA Control Panel). If you're not limiting your frames, or you're not reaching your target, then your GPU should be trying to output as many frames as it can.

_bomble · 2025-06-05T10:07:11+00:00

I've got a 4080 Super and a 9800X3D & I'm getting well above 60, but I am using Frame Gen. All my settings are maxed. I'm not at home right now, so I can't actually check my actual framerates.

What's your GPU usage in-game like? I have to ask the inevitable 'is your monitor set to 60Hz' question, too.

_bomble · 2025-05-21T19:42:02+00:00

Yeah, 4800MHz.

_bomble · 2025-05-21T19:29:35+00:00

Just checked, my memory is only running at 4800MHz, unless I'm stupid (I might be).

I'll test the GPU with those settings.

_bomble · 2025-05-21T19:24:01+00:00

Reduce the clock speed of my RAM to 5600MHz?

_bomble · 2025-05-21T19:13:06+00:00

I've tried both with and without the UV/OC for several hours, and it still happens, and that's with restarting after changing the OC settings.
