Meta before the balance patch was more in favor of Pyro and Sanctic psyker, don't know how it is now.

What's the patch number for the balance patch? Just so I know what I am playing here

Looks like a tranny.

Polymorphine is the exotic shapeshifting drug that is the hallmark of the Callidus Assassins. When combined with the extensive Callidus training, it allows the assassin to change their flesh to adopt the appearance of almost any human or even a humanoid alien.

Yep, definitely one.

Callidus always were trannies, but they're not supposed to have anything to do with Death Cults.

Original Death Cults look like this :

This model's art needs more spandex and more boobs.

Does that means all Druid and Shapershifters are trans ?

Every shifter is sussy.

How's the gameplay for a Telepath? I suppose mind-controlling others is not a thing, right?

It's underwhelming. Domination power is just for kiting. You gain a cone of stunning that's shittier in every way than Cassia's AOE.

Have you already forgotten that she's Milla Jovovich? https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...g-september-24th.149073/page-178#post-9041967

 

[MjKorz]

Have you already that she's Milla Jovovich?

Yeah, I've already seen the trailer. I just found the concept art very sussy which is not without reason, I might add, seeing how we got Anevia in WotR.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

You got that character because the base module already had him.

Which still does not change the fact of the matter.

[volklore]

So is the game kinda finished (keyword kinda) or should I wait another year to play this ?

First three acts are good, the second half of the game is still a mess, combat got some nerfs and fixes but it still pretty much the same.

I'm waiting for september DLC update to replay it but don't have high hopes.

She just has an old-timey skinhead girl haircut.

There is no such a thing as a "woman"
It's either a man or a tranny

But skinhead girls had a raw charm that's thoroughly absent from these modern illustrations.

New Archetypes in the Void Shadows DLC

In the upcoming DLC, the Lord Captain will come face to face with an Imperial Death Cult. These masters of assassination demonstrate their devotion to the God-Emperor by studying every facet and aspect of death: their grotesque rituals and bloody sacrifices conceal, like a sheath, the sophisticated art of slaughter's honed blade. To understand first-hand the lethal grace of their craft, simply examine the arsenal of abilities possessed by Kibellah — a Death Cult representative seeking to join your retinue. The new archetypes available at character creation were specifically designed to reflect the terrifying efficiency of the Death Cult.

Let's take a closer look at the new archetypes in the Void Shadows DLC: the first-tier archetype — the
Bladedancer
and the second-tier archetype — the
Executioner
. Both are primarily focused on attributes desirable for any melee combatant. These new archetypes not only complement each other excellently but also open up numerous lucrative synergies with existing character-build options.

Bladedancer

Available Second-Tier Archetypes:
Assassin, Master Tactician, Arch-Militant, Executioner.
Characteristics:
Weapon Skill, Strength, Toughness, Agility.
Skills:
Athletics, Medicine, Carouse, Awareness, Demolition.

The Bladedancer is an elusive acrobat, skillfully manoeuvring through the battlefield in a deadly dance. With each kill, they gain charges of
Death From Above
: an ability allowing the Bladedancer to perform a short jump, dealing damage to all enemies in the impact zone.
Death From Above
damage scales with Agility and Weapon Skill. If such a display of prowess isn't enough, the
Death Waltz
heroic act enables the Bladedancer to repeat this pirouette multiple times in succession: the more Agility the character has, the longer they can continue this dance of death. And when deep behind enemy lines, completely surrounded, the Bladedancer can effortlessly return to the cell where they began their turn by utilising the
Acrobatic Artistry
ability, leaving bewildered foes unable to punish the bladedancer’s incisive incursions. This impressive arsenal will satisfy anyone looking for ease of strategic positioning and manoeuvrability across the battlefield, such as a Master Tactician or Arch-Militant.

But what if the "death" in
Death Waltz
attracts you more than the "dance?" The Bladedancer is ready to shed blood, whether it be that of their enemies, allies, or even their own. Performing a blood sacrifice, forfeiting their own life force, the Bladedancer strikes swiftly and precisely, critically injuring their foes. This deadly focus can also serve as a defensive measure: the Bladedancer's mastery with two-handed and dual-wielded swords is so great that they can conceal themselves in a literal
Blade Shroud
, reflecting incoming shots back at their enemies, albeit at the cost of overstraining and damaging themselves.

Executioner

Available First-Tier Archetypes:
Warrior, Operative, Bladedancer.
Characteristics:
Weapon Skill, Strength, Toughness, Intelligence.
Skills:
Athletics, Medicine, Lore (Imperium), Lore (Xenos).

This archetype is available to Warriors, Operatives, or Bladedancers who revel in the heart-wrenching screams of their victims. The Executioner specialises in manipulating damage-over-time effects, vastly increasing their potency and converting them into debilitating injuries. Each of the Executioner's strikes is meticulously calculated to maximise the deadliness of afflictions on their enemies: comprehensive knowledge of anatomy allows this gruesome warrior to dismantle foes piece by piece, deepening lacerations and intensifying haemorrhaging as their knowledge of Medicine increases.

The Executioner is perfect for characters with the Biomancer or Pyromancer Psyker origins. Connoisseurs of incendiary bombs, toxic grenades, flamethrowers, needle weaponry, and other exotic instruments of pain will also find the Executioner especially delightful.

With
Reckless Abandon
, the Executioner carelessly plunges the entire battlefield into excruciating agony, sharing in the torment themself and enhancing damage-over-time effects at the cost of their own health. The Executioner can then hurl all opposition into peril with their heroic act:
Carnival of Misery
— foes are set ablaze, poisoned, and suffer heavy bleeding. But that’s not all, for the Executioner's heroic act doubles the damage over time of these effects! And after all their foes are burning, poisoned, and bleeding, you can savour in their agony until they fall silent, for the terrifying master of torture draws power from their very suffering. By way of the
Gift of Torment
ability, the Executioner receives bonuses to armour, evasion, and deflection, scaling with the number of enemies afflicted by damage-over-time effects.

And, finally, the Executioner’s
Where It Hurts
initiates the toccata-finale in their wonderful symphony of pain. After using this free-action ability, the Executioner’s next attack immediately triggers a burst of multiple damage-over-time procs on the target, ending those effects along with the lives of their hapless victims.

Be the fiercest adversary your foes have ever encountered — call forth a typhoon of blood with a whirlwind of attacks and let them tremble in your wake! Armed with new, powerful abilities, you and Kibellah will paint the battlefield in the noble hues of the Death Cult: an exhilarating performance for you and a convocation of doom for those who dare to confront you. See you in the first DLC amidst the Void Shadows!

Did these fucks finally fix the last act bug galore or wait until December?

 

[Unhelpful Contrarian]

Did these fucks finally fix the last act bug galore or wait until December?

Depends on your tolerance on bugs. its most functional but still pretty buggy and the final acts shits the bed badly story wise.

 

[babayaga]

Did these fucks finally fix the last act bug galore or wait until December?

I played it recently (a month ago) and there were few minor bugs here and there in the last act but nothing extreme, mostly visual. I'd still recommend waiting until September 24th as they promised more patches and fixes before the DLC comes.
