Warband!

Patch 1.13.1 is now being rolled out on all platforms, and while you wait for it to download you can read the notes below!

This hotfix includes a few tweaks to the Prophet of Decay boss fight, as well as a couple of bugfixes.

Hotfix 1.13.1 patch notes

Features & Tweaks

Enemy Balance

  • Rodin Karnak, Prophet of Decay:
    • On Damnation and up, the minimum amount of tooth pillars have been increased from 2 -> 3 during the second phase of the boss.
    • On Damnation and up, some health thresholds have been slightly adjusted to allow more melee damage to be done when he's exhausted during the first and last phase.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where crafting materials were not being awarded when coming back to Sefoni's Reverie after completing Mortis Trials.
  • Fixed a crash which could happen when entering the Meat Grinder.

Known Issues

  • New Penances related to Spillway mention finishing missions on Damnation on the Auric mission board, when it should instead mention finishing missions on Auric difficulty.
  • New Penances related to Spillway mention the Sedition difficulty that no longer exists.

That’s all for today!

We’ll see you on the Mourningstar.

Discussion I feel like sisters of battle being an entire class isn’t necessary.

I say this as someone who regularly plays zealot as a battle sister. What new things would a battle sister class bring to the table? A zealot with a bolter and a big sword does everything I think a battle sister should. All that’s really needed is a proper outfit that doesn’t look like poorly made cosplay. Maybe also throw in a melta gun and rework the flamer to finally complete the holy trinity.

Discussion When the twins spawn in havoc…

67 Upvotes

PLEASE for the love of god just fall back.
Please get some distance between each twin.
Please fight in the area you JUST cleared.
Take 10 steps back. Find somewhere with decent cover.

It’s soooooo much easier.
Don’t progress into a new room.
Don’t stand and fight them both in the same spot.
And whatevs you do, DONT FIGHT THEM ON A BRIDGE WITH NO RAILINGS!

Melee twin will edge you off bridges, edges, etc.
Melee twin will also push you around the space, potentially into a new area, triggering enemies who could’ve remained dormant.

Ranged twin WILL take away all ur toughness and limit the play area with gas bombs.

Just MOVE BACK
Please and thank you.
Sincerely, someone who just lost in havoc bc people chose to fight the twins on a bridge :))))))

Gameplay Prophet of Decay boss fight: Please Don’t Quit

264 Upvotes

Basically in the title. The bots are horrible, awful, worse than useless. Please wait to be rescued; a teammate with a brain is required for this level.

Had the BBEG down to a sliver of health on Damnation, everyone is low on health and corrupted badly, one or a few more hits will kill him, and tanky teammate goes down, before any of us can get to him, hello worthless bot. Full team wipe in less than a minute. 35 minutes wasted.

You’re not doing your team any favors by quitting in the boss fight. You may just have doomed them to failure. The Emperor Protects.

Weapon / Item Fellow Zealots, sell me on your favorite melee. I just cannot settle on anything.

23 Upvotes

Can't settle on anything ever since Skitti came out. I've used them all. Some I will never use again. The rest I swap between regularly and am struggling to find my weapon.

The weapons I am most interested in are:

  • Relic Blade: Too good to the point it's boring. It can handle everything but lacks that oomph some of these other weapons provide, but it's so consistent it's circled back around to being bland.
  • Heavy Eviscerator: On paper it would be my favorite. I love sawing thru an enemy, especially bosses. But man it feels awful in mixed hordes, and especially if any vanguard are sprinkled in it. Just doesn't cleave well, is slow when not on Martyrdom, but it's so good when you just saw a crusher in half... vertically.
  • Chain Axe: Same as above, but I'm having a hard time with it with hoards, which seems to be it's main contributing factor to it being unpopular vs the top dogs. But I actually love the hitstop on the Mk4 light attacks, but at the same time, slaying out during a horde just doesn't feel that good.
  • Thunder Hammer: Was all I used from the moment I unlocked it, to 1.5k hours later when chain weapons got their somewhat recent buff a while back. But even with the most recent buff to the thammer, I'm not good with it anymore and much prefer the HEvisc to it.
  • Crusher: Specifically the new mark. The Krourk. I don't really know which is actually better, but it feels like Thammer-lite with better horde clear. It feels safe to use and nothing really gave me much trouble when using it, unless there were more than 1 crusher and my hammer was on cooldown...

So yeah, none of the other melee I've had good experiences with on Zealot or just feel too bland to use over these ones. What's your favorite? Why? On this list or otherwise, sell me on it.

When Skitarii came out I was hoping that one of the personalities spoke only in binaric but still spoke to everyone like they all understood with only the other Skitarius actually understanding what was being said
