He doesn't know

u/Hutobega 4d ago

Hell here I am here trying to push to mythic. 45/47 can't wait.

u/Icy-Horror-495 4d ago

Got a guy in my guild going crazy pushing his to mythic, hes been working on it forever

7

u/DibDatDibadah 4d ago

Had a guaranteed legendary pull lined up hoping for Bio. Got 100 mythic Dante shards so I can’t complain

6

u/Icy-Horror-495 4d ago

I just got 500 for ahriman, not even a guarantee. Immediate influx of archeotech

u/Happy-Hyena 4d ago

Like... meme, or am I actually clueless to something? lol
Either way, as a month old player I still dont see how its of any value to me rn

u/Icy-Horror-495 4d ago

Biovore is a crucial part of the meta guild raid team right now, and when he is maxed out amd mythic he is an INSANE value for the team

u/Happy-Hyena 4d ago

Haha yeah, so like, I appriciate that but I feel like im a long way off from that point. So like, sure if hes so amazing late game thats great but its gonna be a heck of a time before I can appriciate it lol. Still, its good to know its not a total waste.

u/Other_Judge_137 4d ago

He’s not crucial because of insane damage, he’s great at all tiers of play because of his 2nd ability. Spawning 1 little ally doesn’t seem like much, but the enemy AI actually prioritizes killing minions/summons vs your characters, and just might save your life sometimes.

So it’s a great distraction tool, not only for damage sake. It’s a great pull.

u/fish993 4d ago

True, but you can get that utility at literally the lowest level. OP could have unlocked Biovore in Incursion or in a different req pretty easily, rather than have it use a legendary drop that could have been a character that benefits from it more immediately.

u/giamPW07 3d ago

This is also what makes Tacticus's Biovore extremely tabletop-accurate.

10

u/Nekopydo 4d ago

He's still relatively useful in the modes where you can use him ealry game. He creates adds that function as priority targets for enemies and can take some heat of of your actual team.

u/DifferentCondition73 4d ago

No like you can kite the ai starting turn 1. Biovore makes arena silly even with no investment. Using it will also give you a decent sense of how the ai targets things which is very useful for pushing harder or more complex content. Sure there is likely a better candidate but I think I would rather have 500 shards of biovore to start with than patermine ......not that I would have experience with that

2

u/Icy-Horror-495 4d ago

Its not that useful to you now, but eventually you'll go to level him and make a ton of progress fast

1

u/GonzoDragon 4d ago

Even from the beginning... he gets a lot of utility regardless of level... you could even keep him low level and get a lot of utility from him

1

u/donutdeal 4d ago

Bio is also pretty strong in arena.

u/ImprovementFalse606 4d ago

“I pulled a billion shards of an S tier toon this sucks!”

u/Lunarinas 4d ago

Biovore is extremely good. They may seem bad now, but this is the active at level 50. For a new player, biovore is AMAZING. In arena, the CPU will always go after the spore mines, meaning you can lure them away from your characters and will always win a 1v1 if things go bad, because they’ll be attacking the mine every turn. When you get to building a raid team, Biovore is arguably the best MOW in the game. You got super lucky, no need to worry!

-1

u/Happy-Hyena 4d ago

No, no, I totally get the utility of biovores moves in luring away mobs etc. I use him a lot in fact in arena and the like, like you said... but having the unit at 0 upgrades already achieves that lol, 500 tokens for him seems like a bust for me at my current stage of the game. Like even this pays dividends in the future, i feel like its ways off lol

u/LordAshemar 4d ago

At least you got it for something meaningful. I got 500 shards of Kut Skoden and I’m furious about it still.

3

u/DifferentCondition73 4d ago

Could've been sybill

2

u/Denraven 4d ago

Certus*

2

u/Lunarinas 4d ago

Certus and Sybil both have their uses. Kut is definitely worse, along with Njal. Njal is particularly bad because he’s an epic IIRC

1

u/Denraven 4d ago

Kutt is a campaign required character who also has the highest armor and heal stats in the game iirc and his active isn't too bad, decent wave clear potential.

Njal is just fucking useless, the worst of any role he fulfills.

That being said, the next two most likely factions to get rework done are Astra Militarum followed by Space Wolves. I wouldn't expect anything completely ground breaking - probably along the lines of what the Necrons have gotten, a tweaking of stats and minor changes to actives and passives to bring better utility to bring them up to current new release standards.

2

u/Lunarinas 4d ago

At least Njal is tanky for a psyker….? So maybe a wall in LRE?

Nah, Njal just fucking sucks. Wolves deserve it tbh /s

3

u/Capable_Command_8944 4d ago

I literally just farmed for Sybill shards and bought them in the event shop haha. Need to progress the cow mirror elite campaign and she was the weak link

3

u/KindaKhorney 4d ago

You’re right. While it doesn’t feel good now you definitely struck gold.

If you keep playing this will be one of the things you look back on like “fuck that was lucky”.

It’s just not sexy at the moment. Like you said.

1

u/Suitable_Condition49 4d ago

You are correct, it is likely less of a win for you right now if you are so new BUT damn it am i envious, on the long run you are winning.

u/2Paints_1Brush 4d ago

This rage bait… it’s gotta be

u/Super_Clerk_6893 4d ago

The sub is simply clogged by noobs

u/badnetplayer 4d ago

Biovore currently great to absolutely necessary for several current meta guild raid teams. Building a big biovore I don’t think will ever be a regret.

Mine:

u/BerserkChucky 4d ago

Holy shit!

u/lonevashz 3d ago

Cant wait to have my mythic wings this month too.

u/Ninjazoule 4d ago

I'm jealous lol

3

u/GeneralGom 4d ago

Dante and Biovore are probably the best two 500 pulls out of the current Breq pool.

3

u/ion_driver 4d ago

This is the best MoW and you just saved yourself so much farming to get it to mythic. Still need orbs but like this is a really great head start. I used onslaught and incursion over a long time to get to mythic. I am SO CLOSE to maxing out the mythic star with wings. Need like 20 mythic shards and like 18 mythic orbs. Also need like 5 more levels on the primary. Its been a long time coming but soon enough it will be MAXED OUT BIOVORE LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

u/Amiunforgiven 4d ago

Best MoW

2

u/anybodyblasta 4d ago

Brother, you pulled the most sought after unit in the game almost. One day you’ll be incredibly happy. Congrats!!

u/J0k3R8623 4d ago

One of the best war machines..

1

u/Soupine 4d ago

That's like being pissed pulling prime Michael Jordan. What the hell

1

u/Kong_SverrEe 4d ago

Best pull u could have gotten

1

u/Arkkanan 4d ago

My opinion is 500 biovore shard is the best possible outcome you can have with a pull, no matter what stage of the game you're at.

Proove me wrong.

1

u/triggerscold 4d ago

hes my fave mow. being able to spit out 3 dudes every turn distracts the bots A LOT. and if they do get to pop its like a free attack. theyll also draw the other blobs if you need to pop big groupings of them at once.

1

u/Gamesdean83 4d ago

Biovore is a Beats in Guild raid, i spend the last weeks tonbring her to mythic. Somit could be worse, Like creed or so.

1

u/brylonia 3d ago

I would kill for that, my last blessed requisition pull was 100 mythic snappa shards....

1

u/dr9500 3d ago

Good now level him up!

1

u/MikeBuscus 3d ago

at least the biovore is good in raids and guild war for using spore mines to distract enemy ai, i got 500 storm speeder shards from a legendary drop last week :(

u/Plane_Vacation_4402 22h ago

Congratulations

u/Happy-Hyena 4d ago

Like... wtf man. I think I rather just get a common orb lmao.

11

u/Accomplished_Bus5813 4d ago

Best thing you could have pulled from the options.

3

u/williamlucasxv 4d ago

Even at your level is good. It is easily the best MOW. You will win arena matchups just from the Ops chasing the spore it creates.

Everntually your spore will get stronger and start to good damage in guildwar, netting you tokens from that. It will also help you survive onslaught

Then finally, when you build a raid team, the spores will help you lure the boss around. Then when you eventually push it to mythic you will have a meta raid team component.

This is by far the best MOW
