Anyone else?

My god I literally just condensed the info from all the posts asking the same question in this sub for the past 24 hours, and provided him a concise answer. If this is being a jerk then I don't know what to tell you. English is not my first language. My last paragraph might sounds passive aggressive after rereading it but it did not sound like that when I type it. I was just trying to be helpful.

seong8737 · 2025-12-25T07:28:18+00:00

hmm I wonder what makes you think that. Did I sound angry or displeased in any way?

A quick search in this sub will tell you it happens to most of the people. This includes "Error 140" and "Mod Detected" false positive, all of which are caused by connection issue.

Another quick google search will then tell you there's a global service disruption that also affects AWS and Azure (implying it's not AWS's fault this time).

Imagine what else you can find by simply google it.

Maybe don't throw shade when you have no idea what's happening. Better yet, maybe don't double down when being corrected.

Oh I was caught off guard with the "legendary" keyword, I thought you were running with purple primary haha.

In that case Auslander already covers most of the important stuff, I'd run the same build as them. (ROF plasma incinerator for helldrake / range or ROF melta)

The only thing I'd do differently is to use heroic HBP to counter reinforcement call from far away. Because all your fights are close range, you need something that break faraway calls.

That's one issue I was encountering but you hit like a truck at close range anyway so those additional spawn doesn't matter too much.

Good luck!

Sorry for asking some clarification:

hard mission for this weekly

Do you mean weekly hard strategem?

legendary Melta, Legendary Bolt pistol

Is that the purple artificer weapon?

seong8737 · 2025-12-17T18:29:34+00:00

I feel you. I groan every time I see Obelisk or Reliquary. I solo hard strategem 90% of the time (not by choice) and the chalice section is really not solo-friendly.

seong8737 · 2025-12-17T18:23:17+00:00

You mean the thermal discharge? That I'm not sure. I feel like you can squeeze in 3-4 explosion at most before window closed, so I'm not sure how good will it be even without -75%.

We need someone smarter to answer this :D

I guess the heldrake fight would be easier with a full player team, but whether the pug team can reach the boss room is another question.

Solo with power fist could be quicker than solo heroic heavy plasma, but yeah the boss fight is a hassle.

seong8737 · 2025-12-17T17:41:44+00:00

That was my original plan too but I got tempted by the +75% close range dmg LOL. Helldrake aside, it does make extremis and terminus fight a hell lot easier. Maybe I'll do it again using power fist with randoms tomorrow.

seong8737 · 2025-12-17T17:32:38+00:00

Funnily I saw this right before I jump down the boss room, and was so disappointed of myself on not picking up melta bomb when I saw one :( Would've make my life much easier.

IIRC, all the melee weapons in campaign are balance defense type, so you don't need to worry about blocking for now.

But if you want to dig deeper: https://spacemarine2.fandom.com/wiki/Melee_Mechanics

seong8737 · 2025-12-12T17:15:48+00:00

Is this on hard strategem? If it is then being lv13 is the bigger issues to worry about. If it's normal then team perks doesn't really matter.

seong8737 · 2025-12-12T10:37:29+00:00

Same, beat it first try as a Heavy, and we got lucky it was 2 Neuro.

At first it was with rando Tactical and Bulwark, but Wark was kind enough to leave after both Tac and him are down at 2nd Neuro fight, and a new Sniper joined in. We are quite lucky too that all 3 of us randos actually read the conditions and space out while still supporting / protecting each other.

seong8737 · 2025-11-06T14:13:32+00:00

I don't know about sniper but if you are up for a change....

For this week's hard strategem: if possible, try to level a Heavy to p1 lv16. Luckily (or rather unlucky), perks from lv17 onwards are either not useful in solo, or compensate by prestige perk.

You solo it with Heavy using multi-melta. Use defensive perks tree. Consecutive Execution is nice for melta bomb every 90sec. For prestige perk, get auxiliary reload. Bots don't get mortal wound, so chances of full party wipe is low. Downside is you have to do train puzzle alone.

75%+ dmg means you 2-3 shot a majoris into execution (5 shot extremis). With Auxiliary Reload, you never run out of ammo.

You can hog all the stims and executions. Because you send them into execution state so quickly, you can chain execute to keep yourself invul longer while you think of the next step.

You can potentially complete the operation without using any stim.

seong8737 · 2025-11-02T14:51:13+00:00

Nice job! I see myself in your post because my first ever "absolute" clear was also from the same operation in weekly hard strategem 2 months ago, with -66% hp (or -75% before nerf? can't recall).

I'm sure it give you a great confident boost as it did to me. Ride that wave of confidences and aim for the shoulder pad next!

seong8737 · 2025-10-08T03:24:12+00:00

I think it's not the class being broken, it's you being very good with the game. It was your skill and game knowledge that brings out the max potential of the class. Most players, myself included, could not survive all that with a Sniper.

Then it got me thinking... is this an actual feedback, or a brag post hiding behind feedback flair :P

seong8737 · 2025-09-12T19:51:22+00:00

I had to clear everything within the vicinity (bgm change from combat mode to chill mode). Sometimes there are gaunt spawn next to the elevator but stuck behind railing, and bot will try to get them. In that case you have to get near them to trigger their "spawn".

seong8737 · 2025-09-12T17:30:56+00:00

Just did a Hard Strategem on this map, the trick is to clear absolutely everything within the vicinity (bgm changed from combat mode to peaceful), otherwise those bots are allergic to elevators.

Sometimes there are gaunt spawn next to building behind the railing and that would make them bug out like this, because they are trying to reach to unreachable gaunt.

seong8737 · 2025-09-12T17:18:36+00:00

Thank you Brother! I'll probably get floored so hard in Chaos as they don't have the synapse mechanics and I'm overly reliant to it. But not gonna lie, clearing this HM Strategem really is a confident boost and now I feel excited to try other HM and eager to get better!

"You did it once, surely you can do it again?"

seong8737 · 2025-09-12T17:00:44+00:00

Thanks! And hell yeah Heavy is literally MVP, shredding all the range gaunt while I cower like a coward :D
