I love my companions, they're great, but I would like to have more than just 2 xeno companions. I would LOVE another xeno companion since all 3 DLCs we have add strictly Imperium companions. Just something man, I might genuinely cry if I get a Terminator Space Marine in the fourth DLC. Like, cool man, now I can run a Space Marine and a Space Marine Terminator... but like... I need some flavor man. I get there's the Evil McMurderface Heretic Astartes, whatever his name is, but just a crumb of xeno please? I'm so unfazed by the only two we get. They're great, but just one more would make me a happy camper. It could even be something unconventional. Gimme an Ork Freeboota, a Kroot, hell gimme a damn Jokaero for all I care, just something AvianFeline, PLEASE!!!

My next character is gonna be a psyker because I really wanna use that augment that makes your force sword attacks crazy but you aren’t able to use powers other than those given to you by a sword or staff.

I plan on blade dancer into assassin because between arch militant, assassin, executioner and grand strategist it seems the best built for close combat exclusively since I won’t have access to any fancy fire abilities (but Hendrix is gonna have a lot of fun).

But I had a thought, psyker’s can always become an overseer, but I’d unfortunately be stuck with the Raven (trust me I wish I could get the Eagle I know how awesome it would be).

So, if I’m not using the raven to buff my entire party, how is it at other tasks? I know a bit of AoE attacks, and giving you more MP but that seems about it.

I really like him as an Executioner:
With Dual Wield he can either smash an enemy back and then shoot it with a plas/meltagun, or he can sweep with an Omnissian Axe and then shove them back with a Mechadendrite or use the Executioner ability that makes them run THEN shoot them.

Plus since he wants INT anyway, using his Medicae in place of his toughness for wounds makes him pretty solid.

and it seems that guides are either dated or dont touch on it.

it seems like you just put the character with the highest stat in the position but thats not all there is to it. when i move around characters to different posts upgrades for abilities become available even though that character has a lower relevant stat for the post.

can i move a character to the post to upgrade the ability and then move them back to where they have a better stat? does the upgrade stick? is that a smart thing to do or will that bork progression down the line?

absolutely love this game so much. ive been straight no life-ing outside of work. but i really wish they would explain the systems of the game better.

Just got the game last week and decided to get all the DLCs and its added so much content that I never feel like I don’t have something to do, I already have over 50 hours on the game and it’s all I’ve been playing this week. so far my favorite is DLC1:void shadows, all the stuff around the ship is awesome (and you get to take a bath which is my favorite feature lol) and as a tyranid player on tabletop the genestealer cults are really cool, my next favorite would have to be DLC2: Lex imperialis, love the arbites but I assume this will get overtaken by infinite museion when I start getting into its story line, finnally the lowest rank is DLC3: infinite museion, as mentioned previously I haven’t got into the content to much but Trazyn did come onto my ship which was cool. I’m really excited for DLC4 as I bought both season passes to get all dlcs!

What do we think the big new thing for this dlc will be? Shadows had a new class, lex had a new origin and a new class, and the museion had augments and a new colony. What do you think the third will have?

I eneded act 3 and instead of Abelard asking me to resolve the blood ties quest simply said that his entire family was executed. Straight out of commorrah. I have no idea why, and have done a bunch of other act 4 content but never got the quest diologue. Ive even been back to Dargonus since then
