WH40k Tacticus - Survival Tan Gi'da 2024-11-24 (Pariah Nexus / Thanksgiving Event) First Run
Combat recon of the Pariah Nexus Survival event in Tacticus!
Just how bad to fight are the Necrons going to be with a roster limited to AdMechs, Ultrasmurfs, Nuns with Guns and Thaddeus?
Come find out, and let me know how you did on your first run! I managed 58.095 points, but I don't think I can do much better than that. Then again, after Tan gets his bonuses from the missions, who knows!
Update: Run 3 with +60% Tan Gi'da stats - 70.895 points. Same overall strategy, just got first Damage on Bellator, Hits, Melee Hits and second Damage on Tan, Armor on Izzy, HP on Actus. Cleared Wave 14 fully and almost brought one of the big Ophydians down.
Just to clarify: I can't sleep because of a toothache - one of my molars is getting a crown and its nerve is currently being killed with some sort of a toothnerve killing paste. It's numb during the day, but for some reason it begins hurting at night and takes a few hours to stop. I can't wait until Thursday when I'm due for round three at the dentist.
Warning: Casual profanity.
Enjoy!

Keep posting videos like this. Thank-you.
I intend to, it's just that these events don't happen all that often and I don't want to upload every single run - that'd be the best way to annoy the Warp out of everyone. 😅
I am awaiting a copy of White Dwarf magazine which contains a code for her shards. Really excited to be able to finally use her.
Oo, you're in for a treat then, she makes the average Imperial's life much easier. 😊
Question; with the Nids being finished next month, do you think we will get the Devastation of Baal Nid campaign before new year? I think so. 3 Blood Angels released & 4 Tyranid characters released before Christmas? It’s odds on.
I have no idea, but it's an intriguing possibility. I think I'd like that. 😊
Can you please try to find a solution for where Xybia does not take nap? There crowd is so big that someone inevitably steps on the resurrection spot.
I can try. Edit: I tried. ua-cam.com/video/hKrfnl2dgqY/v-deo.html
I guess Hollan doesn't need to go above B1 as his quest will be in 5 weeks. Continuing to beef the nids and Magus to G1. Thanks Caoryn. Another great series of videos
Not acutely, no. But still, he's a Xenos healer and as such a precious lil' monster.
I felt like this quest line had the least amount of low level RNG fuckery that I can remember. I am happy to see they will be adding UM for the Hollan quest as just three factions, when one of them is brand new and two are unfarmable, is ridiculous.
Yeah, aside from the stages where I needed a very specifically aimed Yarrick drop (and I suspect in some of them I could have swapped WTP in and it'd be less RNG-y), this quest was okay. Aside from the three-faction roster which outright prevents newer Tacticians for playing, that the devs addressed in the future, from what you're saying. 😊
duuuuudeee hahah quite impossible for me but still nice to watch you with two underleveled heroes. WTP carried you with the summons most of the stages. I don't even have him.
Aye, infinite summons are a powerful mechanic. Probably too powerful. 😅 (Or, as I often say, bullshit.)
Thank you always!
Happy to entertain!
Thank you very much the epic 2. I like your "low budget" solutions! :)
Cheers, I just am not sure about this being "low budget" ... 😅
@@caoryn Low budget = you haven't all of g(X) character. :)
Aye, but you still need to have the ones who can actually pull that off... 😅
Uncommon 3 is not repeatable. Godswyl ignores the add and Once the flamers move in they reduce too low or kill Yarrick.
I was surprised he didn't go for Yarrick, yes - Godswyl's AI tends to go for high armor targets. I think I got lucky with the passive hit targeting the Cadian, and then the AI "thinking" saw that as an easy kill. It might be more viable to put WTP in Yarrick's place - the Warrior should be able to tank Godswyl while getting rid of both the Templars there, but I didn't want to use it just yet for "common heroes" reasons. Or maybe even Hollan, tanking with Hyde.
Creed, Yarrick, Xibia, Winged prime, tade, first turn just move everyone in one line, second, let out canadians of creed and winged prime, Xibia and tade shot 1-1 in each turn, 3, yarricks canadians do the job with winged prime. (Epic3)
Sounds good, wish I had Creed. 🙂
@caoryn wish I had strong sybill...😉 Also after xibia died units always stepped in their place. After 2fails changed to that.
I'm pretty sure you're closer to having the S1 (Epic) Sibyll than I am to having Creed. 😅 At any rate, I'm glad you found a solution that worked for you. Well done! 🙂
Thank you! Köszi, agyfaszt kaptam én is ugyanettől (random bt rongyol a decoy-ra), de a creed-es végül csak összejött.
Jah, Beno megoldása jónak tűnik.
The mad dash to upgrade hollan begins!
That it does. Rare is probably reachable tomorrow, while spending 160BS on energy.
@caoryn rare maybe tomorrow but its getting him up to r1 before friday while beefing up my nids. Gives a synergy to both events I suppose. Thanks btw for the these two videos.
Well, if it's any encouragement, he doesn't strictly need to be at Rare for the Rare stages - just finished them and uploading the video in a bit. The other heroes however...
I really appreciate this prep video. Thanks for the research you put in and sharing it with us.
Cheers, hope it helps. 😊
I’m actually getting sick of Admech teams. Yes it’s optimal but it’s so boring to watch. I love Painhawk videos but it’s just a few minutes of the same thing over and over again
That's inevitable when you have a "best team / strategy". And yes, we all will eventually gravitate towards those. Just at different paces, depending on how much everyone spends on the game. 😅
well, a little bit of lost potential due to Thaddy not being adjacent to Calgar; and unfortunately, this is about 50% of dmg done by AdMechs
Thaddeus woulda dealt less damage on even ground adjacent to Calgar, I checked. By only a few hundred, but according to the damage indicator this was still optimal. But yeah, that was part of my reasoning when I mentioned bringing in Aethana instead of Calgar in the outro screen - everyone gets buffed then. And, well, what can I say - my Admechs are still at early Gold stages, so this will have to do for now, and may help everyone who's still living in 2023 and only has a Ragnar team. 😅
@caoryn I mean high ground + Calgar for the best of Thaddy :) and yes, I've spent several months making my AdMechs playable... And still not finished (badges...) ;)
Well, that is also possible and in fact I went for it (stack Maugan and Thaddeus on the east high ground and juggle Calgar to there), and ended up with less damage total. Partly due to Ragnar not critting at all during his super happy wolf time, and partly because I lost one more Maugan being stationary turn.
Po…dcasts…brilliant!!
😋
Can you do a raid boss series? (only for legend rank). Guide to building the most effective team for each boss, tricks, tips..... I think many people will like it.
Well, maybe with the help of my guildies - I don't have all the heroes at viable levels and I much prefer to show "our work" to scouring the other CC's for their gameplay.
Great video as usual, I passed it to my guild mates so they can see the changes! Hollan needs to be pre-farmed and raised to gold 1 if possible!
Thank you. 🙂 And yeah, agreed, gonna rush Hollan too - healers are critical for LREs.
A few days later y completed fall of cadia Elite with angrax Diamond 2 and half
That's one big Angrax! Congrats, well done. 🙂
Thanks again Caoryn. I hope your tooth gets fixed painlessly !
Cheers, that makes two of us. 😅 I got a nerve-killing paste in it and a temp cap, but I think the temp cap doesn't cover all of the nerve, so when food or something gets in there I go ouchie until I wash it out with saliva. Next appointment is on the 28th, the nerve should get pulled out then and hopefully more of the tooth will get filed away - I don't really expect the crown getting made just yet. Who doesn't love going to the dentist.
Really wasn't expecting you to reply so quickly !! Gentleman !!
Gentleman??? That's not something I'm often accused of being, good sir! I take grave offence!
@@caoryn Kind person ! Apologies if caused offense !
Just messing with ya! 😇
This is great. I did it first time ! Don't suppose you have a video for 39 and 40 ! You are running these missions with a really simialr team to mine so would be really helpful !!
I'm afraid I don't, but I can cook something up. Although my Chaos grew... a lot... since then. If I remember right, Abraxas did a lot of good work with his summons. Can you please leave a response to this to remind me tomorrow when I have energy again? 😅
Aight, Elite Cadia 39, coming right up. I got stage 40 recorded too, just need to put the video together and upload it. 😊 ua-cam.com/video/8ck8HxRCuhY/v-deo.html
SP Must give privileges to you! Not Nandi
I appreciate the sentiment. 😂 They did invite me to join their Creator programme (in fact, both Ratatosk and Nicole did independently), but after confronting our respective terms and conditions we agreed that I don't want to - I prefer my complete independence and want to avoid being seen as having knowledge of the upcoming changes and giving that to my guild and friends, e.g. who knew that Helbrecht would be the bees knees against Magnus, right? 😅
You are my hero! \o/
More like an example of how not to do it... 😅
Good video~ Just want to say that in alpha track is no imperial, so showing Sarquael and Azrael is not going to be helpful. And also Abaddon is shown twice in the same track
Arf, I remembered to kick out Incisus and didn't double check that no other Imperials snuck in after - a mistake that's been in there since the first video, where I forgot that it's "no Imperials" between the script and the video itself and went "Oh, why didn't I put Incisus in there to heal?" 😅 I guess it makes for a good viewer attention check, at least. Thanks for pointing it out. 😊 Update: I removed Certus, Sarquael and Azrael from the 1-Hit Alpha team suggestions, and removed one Abaddon from the Resilient team suggestions in the raws for the third repeat, but won't replace this vid - not ashamed of showing my mistakes. 😅
Thanks a lot for the review!
You're welcome. 😊 I wasn't trying to be kind to you; what you've seen is legitimately my first impression and opinion on the game. If I hated it, I would say I hated it and why (assuming I could put it into words). 😊
I got him from the “mercy” system the other day. I already had him of course but only at 3 star. So I can use those shards for the low low price of 45 Legendary Xeno Orbs…a resource I already needed 100s of. SP sucks.
I know the AdMechs are fond of the Necrons, but they still don't use their Orbs... yet. 😁 But yeah. Vitruvius is nice to have but so far not really a high priority to get and build - perfect Legendary to be given by the evil RNG!
@ Sorry got confused because those are interchangeable to me in my thoughts because I need 100s of both. Chaos is, of course, the only alliance that I have 10+ L orbs in inventory, even though I could use them for promotions immediately.
No need to apologise. 😅 I'm in that situation with Imperial orbs - got a hundred of those and nobody to use them on. My Xenos are standing in a line in front of my 5 or so orbs, several ready to get promoted further, and a bunch of my Chaos boys are all eyeing the twenty orbs I just got ready to ascend Wrask and Azkor to legendary (Wrask is waiting for the next 10-pull for the milestone reward and Azkor needs three or four onslaughts). The resource crunch is real.
The same thing happened to me today. When i opened the RT, i saw vitruvius, and i was like, this shit ain't even needed anymore (i have him, max star, too). LOL
Aye, I just couldn't resist. Only wish I'd done that later in the day when I was at operating temperature with a proper script and all. Maybe make it actually funny.
You dodged a bullet there, you could have ended up with 5 Vitruvius shards.
Welp, and when SP implements more legendary stars, the joke will be on us. 😅
😂😂😂😂😂
😊
Thanks for sharing. Your video helps me a lot👍
You're welcome - I'll pass the thank you on to Engels, too. 😊
Thanks Caor, this helped me max the event!
Cheers, well done you!
Hey it's me who asked on Reddit for you lol Did you have any luck yet?
Sadly, no. I'll need to go through every single entry on worldofspectrum one of these days. 😅
Thx dude! Ur videos are really helpful as always!
Same thing I tried on my own (in 1). But my Toth is weak.
Sorry to hear that. I'm afraid that the only alternative is Abaddon with an epic crit item, critting. 😓
@caoryn My Abby is even weaker. XD Been slacking on most, but slowly building up my side-heroes now.
Well, can't say that Abigail is a high priority hero, so that's understandable... 😅 There's always the next Quest, right? 😊
And no abraxas
... and Abraxas makes Chaos life in Quests (and everywhere else, too) much more manageable, highly recommend you grind him out as soon as you can. And Rotbone from the War Shop, too, of course.
By far the most complicated quest so far that I've played. Having no rotting bitch, things are harder. Not to mention my chaos are silver 2 average.
I think there were worse ones in the past, but that may be because I now have all the Chaos heroes at least unlocked, if not completely built out and there's usually alternatives. But yeah, Rotbone is almost irreplaceable...
too much rng where the pox walkers will appear XD
Yes, but it was my only hope of actually demonstrating the kill in a Rare stage, with a Common-capped-stats Corrodius. If he were maxed, there'd be no problem - he can reach. 😅
R3: What if you have no kharn? I though jakhal but forgot he injures himself. Any ideas?
One, but I think it doesn't work - if Corrodius' passive speed boost affects Angrax while he's in Deepstrike or as he arrives from it (which I don't think it does), it would be possible to get the double kill with Angrax' active and finish the north Faketus with the Corrodius. Other than that, if LTGB hit enemies adjacent to you and not adjacent to the primary target, Haarken might be able get the double kill. But as it is now, the No Flame condition forbids everyone who could help (Wrask, Abraxas, Ahriman) that I can think of.
@@caorynjust tested. Speed boost does affect.
Really? Damn, then that is probably the intended non-Kharn solution. 😊
@@Voidkey11 unfortunately my corrodius is pants. Will check. Thanks
It works and in an emergency a level 26 Poxwalker can kill the Eliminator. I just pulled it off with an Iron Corrodius. ☺ ua-cam.com/video/OIbEQmanvgI/v-deo.html
I cannoy replcate uncommon 3. The AI behaves completely differently.
Sorry to hear that - are your selectable heroes maxed for the stage, with maxed abilities (summon sizes) etc? Other than that, there may be some differences between the various versions of the game (a guildie has Tacticus on several devices, each from a different store, i.e. Apple and Google stores and mentioned noticing different behaviors between the versions). Or I may just have gotten extra lucky with the AI's decisions where it can make some (Bellator usually doesn't drop BBs on T1, but "usually doesn't" isn't the same as "never does"...) differences. 😕
@@caoryn happens on other games. I will come back to this if I need it to complete. As always, thank you for your videos.
Best of luck then. 🙂
Just getting to see all the maps is great as always. I’m looking at beta 10 myself (g2.5 Mal/Rot, G1 Angrax and Aun)…. I’m hesitant to try it: more tempted to hide on the right bridge with just the deathguard.
You have pretty much the same roster as I do then, maybe a bit smaller Angrax. The defensive strategy should be safer, but then again, you will probably have to heal all three heroes on the bridge at the same time and Rotbone isn't all that good at that.
@ after beta 9, I’m assuming Angrax is dead, and it’s just rot and Mal. I see 4 guys hitting rot a turn, and 6+ hitting Mal. I don’t think it will hold out. So I’m eyeballing how many days a Angrax upgrade would take: but it’s fighting my Revas upgrade schedule as well. Rough situation.
Can you go for a different track for now instead, to see how much you need from Beta to unlock the Patermine? The unlock is what matters now, there'll be plenty of time to get some extra stars after.
@ heh, yep: ran the full math on where I am vs what I need for the unlock. I’m doing other items at the moment, but it’s going to either be beta 10, or Alpha 12 needed for me to unlock. Just deciding if Bellababies 47 or Mal/Rot G2.5 are going to be my “let’s hope this works”: ha. But good advice as always. Cheers mate.
I'm assuming you've considered also just getting the points from kills from higher stages?
Nandi Sucks. You're the BEST
🤩
Interestingly, Toymacho's passive ability is more useful than his active one.
90% of the time that is true.
Oh, wow, that Rotbone alone was long and painful. You have my sympathy.
Oh, hi Ash! Yeah, I cut ten or so minutes of Rotbone topping himself off - think showing the first cycle to get a kill in a semi-fast-forward was more than enough... 😅 I need to figure out how to speed up the playback of a section, it was kinda late for me yesterday when I was editing this (I'm solar-powered, it gets dark out, I drop dead) and I didn't think of it.
@@caoryn I had a similar situation killing one rubric marine every n-moves, with Aleph having to heal himself along the way. I feel your pain.
🤗 It's a classic healer strategy. 😅
Can't wait for gamma track maps, big thanks for your work!
Thanks for appreciating the video! 😊 Not one-shotting all the stages (looking at you, B12 and past me!) cost me too many tickets, so I think the Gamma video will be up on Thursday. Today's Angrax Quest day, anyway. 😅
A hav ben using isabela, calgar and titus for bolter, max 4 hits, and no ranged. A can probably do battle 7 with them to but think gona swith from bolter to phycikal dmg instead. 5 les points but 5 characters instead and easier se if they strugle
Shouldn't really be that much easier, Izzy and Calgar is easy-mode as long as she doesn't die in one turn, but without Bellator it will be grindy with all the Grots...
@caoryn god for May guild for got guild mission kill grots xD
That's what ua-cam.com/video/A1dloQTfQas/v-deo.html is for. 😅
@@caoryn no rush. And wirh salvage runs and campaigns have grots we get it progres slowly all time and with legendery events now we probably get 60-100% don when event ends. Its a bonus guild exp sow.
Yeah, fair.
I have no Calgar but I do have...Titus. Isabella Bellator and...Titus.
Oh, I completely forgot about Titus being melee only and having Bolter in his ability. Well... Should still work, Bellator is really powerful for Alpha. Just cleared A12 - G3,5 Izzy is pretty safe there. I broke All Melee for A13 though, didn't wanna risk it.
@@caoryn Titus sucks very badly compared to Calgar. Doubt I can make it to A12. D1 Bellator/Isabella. S1 Titus.
A12 should be fine still, a D1 Izzy can take some stray hits there and BBs will clear the stage for you. It will just take a while longer. I got steamrolled on my first try in A14 with a full team, underestimated the damage and got Izzy blapped early on - on the second run I lasted longer until my screw up, with some RNG (good blocks, battle fatigue procs). The Greenskins can hit really darn hard. Time to put the Alpha track vid together.
all mine a G1 and get 1 shot by the blade guys, i can barely scratch them with anyone, and since most of these characters arnt worth investing in ill just never finish the campaign i guess :S
I think maxed epic pauldrons will take care of the getting-one-shot part, and Bellator and Incisus are good Ultramarines to build. And when you eventually get a bigger Thaddeus, the stage will fall. :-)
Well done and thanks for posting!
Thank you. 😊
His active isn't affected by Ragnar buff. His Genestealer summons have the ambush trait so can decoy on death. He also has 4 unstoppable movement. Enemies that flee count as defeated so will create decoys too. I think he's going to be pretty good and that his value will increase as we get more GSC with ambush mechanics to use alongside him. Here's hoping they're good ones :)
Genesteler cult have alot characters that do diferent things sow many diferent variations exist. And snowprint sayd cult is focused on synergy in there own faction
Yeah, the active does mention it's unaffected by buffs, but then again you don't NEED to use the active on the Ragnar turn, do you? I'm not sure about the fleeing units dropping decoys, because Haarken doesn't (or at least didn't use to the last time I checked) get +attack stacks from stuff he scares away. If it does indeed work that way, then I wonder about the order in which things happen, i.e. you move in, use the active to kill the primary target, which turns into a decoy, and does this decoy now become a Genestealer immediately? If yes, that's gonna be nasty.
@@caoryn all blips ner bekomes a genesteler. Even the one he kills
@@caoryn that's a fair point with Ragnar's active, his normal melee attack is 5 eviscerating damage so should be very strong with it. The decoys created from fleeing summons do indeed turn into genestealers with his active, as long as they're adjacent to him of course.
Okay, that's maybe TOO convenient then. Then again, it'll be hard to utilise where it matters the most (in TA) as generally when the opponent has summoned Canadians / Grots / Boys in numbers for this interaction to be relevant, you probably are already having turbo bad time.
How do you use the revives,
I'm not sure I understand the question... If you mean Rotbone revives, then he has a chance to revive any Chaos dying next to him from his passive, once per turn. If you mean the reinforcements after a hero dies (and isn't revived by Rotbone), then you need to collect the Reinforcements power-ups when one spawns (it's the one with the helmet icon), and then when you're not at full heroes, you'll automatically get to choose from three random deployable heroes. If you mean "who do you pick", well, only about half of my Chaos heroes are big enough for the Epic and bigger waves, so generally I pick the one from the selection who is... 😅 But in a perfect world you'd probably want Maladus (tough, cleave), Wrask (tough, AoE shield), Kharn (soft, but AoE), Ahriman (repeatable AoE active ability), maybe Abaddon (Terminator, damage buff)...
@@caoryn ah ok thank you
Cheers. 😊
