I don't like how much they increased the bosses health... First, it's disheartening to be stuck on a difficult boss for a long time and this will just exacerbate that. Second, I feel like they were trying to find a way to reign in the very top % of guilds, but it hurt those ranked like 50+. Legendary orbs are already a killer to get, hope the changes in the shop make up for it. At least we got Nandi here to help us strategize for the new boss! Good vid
This gona be screamer killer v2. Alot beginer players/guilds gona have problem with it, many players have probleme do 80k+ dmg on screamer kiler in top 150 guilds.
Yeah there was a big emphasis on ranged units for SilentK and Morty, and in mortys case actively punished a melee character. So screamerK took a Lot of people by surprise with how absolutely necessary it is to have a tank (or even 2) originally. And you couldn't just summon surround it to contain it because then it's crit got waaaaY TO POWERFUL, I'm part of a top 100 guild & a co-leader to boot. Skreamer was the hardest part for me....until royal dorn took my precious Chaddeus Noble away from me cry😢😢😢 lol
@@ericcloud1023 rogal dorn hardest part for me do god dmg but a try only use raid tokens minimum 1 time per Day and let ones beter than me do dmg. Screamer kiler a do best dmg of guild on it att moment. And a dont have Ragnar fixed
As a new player this has come in incredibly handy. Ive been directing our new guild to your vids for thoroughly reliable breakdowns on mechanics, AI, strategies etc. You really do go to another level with these. Just wanted to reach out and say thanks.
Amazing video, really excited for how fun this new boss is gonna be, i really like the dependance of crits not only because it boosts my favorite character (Aethana) but because its a breath of fresh air from previous bosses who are even made to stall you for having many summons and attacks.
Massive thanks Nandi, Lebonty and Towen. This boss looks like it's gonna be tough but really glad they're giving us different things to think about with them
This is going to be Challenging! It's Frakking Huge!! But, utilizing this video, and your Amazing deep dive, I feel that my chances are much improved. Thanks Nandi for your time and effort in making this content. I'm grateful for your work. Can't wait for the next one.
Astute viewer here, I absolutely loved the Content, really informative and a pleasure to digest as always. The interesting terrain features and Mrs Nandi bringing you a tinny were the cherries on top. :)
I have to admit, when I read the news post ingame I assumed it would be the primarch Rogal Dorn and that the tank was a teaser for one of his summons. '^^ I suppose the tank is much more fitting for the Guard as a guild boss.
Hey 👋 Tact noob here. Super informative video!! I'm still leveling so kinda take what I can get character selection. I just got Jain Zar and she killed it... also having very good luck with Haarken. He seems to get behind the tank consistently and his 80% piercing is awesome for the raid. Thanks for all your videos!
Excited for new Guild Raid. Thanks for keeping the community informed, patch notes can be a bit vague or easy ti misunderstand. Appreciate the in game footage too and breakdowns. Edit. So we can actually use other Imperial Factions against this raid? I knew Astra Militarum would be out, but i figured it was a No Imperial raid. Not just no Imperial Guard
Great video with real information ❤❤ Gonna be interesting to see how the meta shakes out for this As always keep being awesome brother and I'll keep watching -puntyer
I've found out that Makoteph really helps on that boss if you're a relatively new player. His 1 bonus mouvement is pretty good to help slower units position themselves and he has a 60% pierce ratio~
Looks like itll be a decent challenge! I recently got an extra 500 Jain zar shards from a requisition so i might have to pivot from my Space Wolf project 😊
Thanks so much for the detailed breakdown! As a newer gamer I am concerned that a lot of the top picks are legendary characters so it might take some trial and error to find an alternative team with lower base rarities. Thinking of a neurothrope team does seem interesting, makes me want to look into how the thousand sons characters work with neuro. Like I know that Abraxas-adjacent volk adds 2 stacks of the parasites but does that work with psykers? Does ahriman's active apply parasites once, or by hit(I do know that regular attack multi-hit psykers only apply 1 stack from your neuro clip)? Does yazaghor's active trigger 'gunners kill on sight' if swapping in/out of the area of fire? Does the additional psycher dmg from yazaghor's active stack the parasite? How about for the psyker he swapped with? I wish they had a playground where we could test these things... it's really difficult when mixing factions. Like the only real opportunities we get are the arena and maybe the LREs but those all use tokens as well and you can't really control the environment in a way we can test at will.
Playing since more than 6 months. Heros I can recommend: Belator, Volk, Angrax, Aethana, Archimatos & Godswyl. You get them at low rarity and they do nice work for the first months. Belator might be the best one on this list. He is just amazing.
Soooo are we Not going to Talk about the shape of the trenches on the second map? Anyways nice Video as Always, i will Look Forward to figuring this Monster Out! Hail Alpha Legion
What about Darkstrider? Seems to be a viable option. And of course Deathleaper. Could do great as well. Maybe a bubble of infiltrators dragging attention, Maugn in midfield so he is not forced to move and Eldryon prepared at the back side.
The fsct that they have changed bonus crit to +50% saved my Maugan. With aethana he will have 105% even after moving. But I must say I dont like steonger bosses. We will have big proboems with primes on those. Eben un such an organised guild and cluster like Raven Guard from Eye of Terror is. Thst will be really hard
Excellent info, my favorite part was the shout to LeBonty who is my favorite raid leader :) Hopefuly this intel prevents us from getting stuck under those massive tank tracks, still looks like a tall order though... at least we can die prepared. CA CAWWW!
Wow, what a brick wall of a boss. I just started playing this game, joined a guild, and after cruising through the first 2 tiers in the first day, we've been stuck on the Rare version of this tank since. Absurd difficulty scaling compared to its surrounding bosses. Thanks for the guide, but sadly I don't think I'll be able to contribute more than a few thousand damage per fight for the foreseeable future. What a downer.
Good vid as always, however, 3 or the 5 suggested characters to use are Legendary who the vast majority of the player base will not have access to. Now that the elites are covered what are some suggestions of characters to use for the 99% ?
Tacticus is a 99% perfect mobile game, they just need to figure out why their log doesn't capture crashes. Oh, wait nevermind that's not their fault, it's the advertisers. Silly me.
Great video. The L5 gibba tanks look like they're closer to LVL 50 damage stats as well instead of just increased HP. Is that going to be a feature for all primes where we see increased damage stats instead of just increased HP?
I think the scaling for primes is different to bosses. Towen did the math but I didn’t have time to include it for the video. It was already a hard 7-8h slog..!
The prime scale like bosses so just get more HP However the minions that appear with the primes now have a max scale to 99.7 at new L5 whereas currently only scale to 41 at old L4 Scale effects damage, armour and abilities
Thanks for the effort with the video. @realtowen I'm wondering though is the minions scaling intentional? It seems odd to me that SP would cap the other stats on the bosses but leave minions fully scaled. It's going to make for extremely spicy primes
If you put wolf next to the boss outside of that big aoe and 4-5 summons of yours trigger that overwatch mechanic is ulf going to use his passive against the boss for 5 times??😂😂😂
This new scaling sounds absolutely horrible. Purely for top 10-20 guilds. F u to all other guilds. We'll be staring at the same boss for a week... That's nice to look forward to
Worst designed mechanics in the entire game, literally made to punish the player and be anti-fun to play. What a great idea, a boss that is so poorly made it makes you not want to play anymore! Genius!
Hey I made a cameo 😂. I can’t believe you caught me opening a cold one with the boys
Pound them to dust!

Ooooooo that's looks like a ....... 😂😂😂

Just no imperial guard
Dammit lol, I literally just ascended my calandis but I guess I can start working on aethana
I have been debating pushing Aethena for my D1 Ragnar. I think this boss will be the excuse I needed.
Excellent video as always Nandi. Looks like my focus on Eldar will really pay off on this new boss.
Great vid, ty Nandi

Yeah excellent point! I hadn’t put as much thought as usual into the teams due to time pressures! Good spots
I'm 20 seconds into the video and I can already tell that this will be my favourite raid boss only by virtue of it being a really cool fucking tank
The fsct that they have changed bonus crit to +50% saved my Maugan. With aethana he will have 105% even after moving.

I'm guessing Jutsu

Any particular reason you like that map Nandi? Are you perhaps a Volk lover as well?

Thanks Maxi. ( Lebonty )
5:20 "Unique terrain feature in the middle" i WONDER what he's talking about
😂😂
The Legendary version of this thing is gonna be a nightmare.
Man if only I had 8125 energy to use
Roadblock number 2 for guilds. This and Skriller and really going to make GR punishing for anyone new.
Hope we get a Dirty Dozen soon, with this boss in mind :)
Looks awesome Nandi can't wait to see it 🥵
So i guess we wont get much more guild credits anymore.
37.5M HP of D3 raid boss vs 7.2M HP D3 per rotation... The guild shop rewards will severely decrease
Sees profile pic…
Sees Tau
No it can not be nooooo!!!
Hey Nandi, great vid! Why don't you consider using Abraxas with Neurothrope? Is it because of the roll-over damage that will trigger multiple times?
Yes the summoners will run out of the fire zone for kill on sight and cause your squad to die
Good vid as always, however, 3 or the 5 suggested characters to use are Legendary who the vast majority of the player base will not have access to. Now that the elites are covered what are some suggestions of characters to use for the 99% ?
I’ll be doing a deeper dive into this with recommendations and gameplay with non legendary characters in my dirty dozen video this month!!
Are you gonna be updating the Dirty Dozen to account for the new boss?
Yes I will do. Plan on putting an update out towards the end of the month
Tacticus is a 99% perfect mobile game, they just need to figure out why their log doesn't capture crashes. Oh, wait nevermind that's not their fault, it's the advertisers. Silly me.
A' Orc kommentaa : Tankzasplasha ?
So, are you saying we can use imperial units against this boss?! Doesn't seem bloody likely
Yep. The only excluded ones are Astra militarum

surprised you can take Imperials into this fight
Would Volk shine here with his passive?
High risk with slow speed and ”cannot be displaced”. Might become a meat grinder casualty under those scary tracks..
If you put wolf next to the boss outside of that big aoe and 4-5 summons of yours trigger that overwatch mechanic is ulf going to use his passive against the boss for 5 times??😂😂😂
