0:12 I know in the last video you said you had recorded this before Nurgle had taken his hold, and hearing you say “I’m a little sick” is a very telling premonition
I have all 4 dark angels at D3, and I'm pre-farming for the 5th. Sarquael is great. Shoots often and hits hard (with enough of a badge investment.) Baraquel is great, hes a tank when you need a tank, hes a stationary turret when you need a turret, he works great with azreal and sarquael. Azreal is... okay. He used to be poor, but now he's not terrible. As you said, he should get his own passive, and maybe +1 or even +2 hits on his ranged attack (this thing is a chapter relic. C'mon!) and then he would be a credible threat at all ranges as he should be. Asmodai is the outlier here. He is a anti-chaos delete button with the stats of a regular all purpose hero. So most of the time, he does poorly. Then when hes actually vs a chaos target, hes average. His active and passive are a mess, he doesn't directly help the other three in a meaningful way. Hes built like hes supposed to be tanky with terrifying and a good block chance, but his stats are so poor that he still comes off as squishy. Asmodai needs a rework. Take out his anti-chaos stuff because it's just silly to bring a hero that is only good 1/3'rd of the time. Make Asmodai a credible threat that can and will take down targets weaving in and out of the other 3 as needed, punishing others from approaching his battle brothers. My 2 blackstone. Anyways, for those that took the time to read, DA 5th is coming soon, but he may not be coming in the event you expect him to. Repent! For tomorrow you die!
Baraqiel released broken. His Plasma attack doesn’t benefit from the Heavy Weapon trait. It’s a giant cannon and doesn’t get the buff. They are my favorite faction and are just underwhelming in every area.
I haven't even got his frags since i got him 6 months ago. Still at 4 gold. Shame because he's better than cestus, which does have the heavy weapon buff.
@ Barq has the heavy weapon trait. But his plasma cannon doesn’t get the buff from the trait. The devs said this was a mistake but couldn’t fix it. So yeah he’s not working as intended
@thefrienemypodcast6073 if devs fix it he'll be better than cestus. More than before... But I'll probably keep him at 4 gold stars my rng for him is not so good.
I think Dark Angels is too committed to the older version to change with one character. Saraquel’s defense slot should switch to a blocking item so he can benefit from Azrael’s passive. Azrael should benefit from his own passive as he wants to be on the frontline and he has overwatch. Asmodai needs a big rework, and since he lacks overwatch or plasma he should have the melee statline of a true monster and some team buffing abilities since we aren’t gonna get a healer. For the legendary character I would like to see Sammael on his jetbike to give Dark Angels a high mobility character with plasma and overwatch and give tacticus another mounted character like Tanksmasha. Or they could go with Belial and maybe give him overwatch to have some synergy with the existing faction flavors in game.
DAs are my favorite imperial faction in tabletop and lore…and my least favorite faction in Tacticus. It’s a real shame how badly they designed the DAs for this game. So much wasted potential 😒
Love the DA. Well to clarify I have alot of use for Sarquael and brother Baraq 😂 The two of them together are some serious badasses, and I let them pal around with brother burchard to form the main battle line in most of my lineups. But then again I'm one of those guys who likes hellbrecht as well so say what you will about that. 😂😂 The one list I can't do is mechanicus, I just can't get behind them despite their damage output. Can't help that can't stand em I guess lol. 🤷
Don't forget, Azrael just did get a buff on the December 10 patch, where his health was increased by 11% and his damage by 26%. I have my Azrael up to Gold 3, my highest character, just cause I play for fun and like the Dark Angels, but I barely noticed a difference other than the occasional arena fight where he put out a bit more damage
I though at the beggining that they rushed the Dangels out for the Lions release but here we are 2 years later with no 5th and 5 gsc characters in 1 month a complete faction
I remember hearing that they purposely hang onto the fifth character when games workshop is going to have a new model. Maybe they don't have one coming but snowprint isn't stupid. Dark angels are a beloved faction so while I'm not sure we'll get the amazing legendary hero, they'll make them relevant with some sort of rework and a character that is lore exciting because there's money to be made. I will buy any da product that makes them better
Yeah DA are my worst build faction. 2x Stone azrael/Asmodai, 1x Bronze (Sarq) , 1x Iron (Barq) . No other faction is this bad, not even the much newer BA. Almost every other faction has at least a silver, gold or Dia char. playing for two years with 11 Dia chars. DA feel utterly useless. Maybe PVP if you like em. Rest meh
All I can say is thank god for Draupnir's Tacticus content. Szeku and Nox are absolute dog. DB content is weird / disturbing ai bot fake content. Nandi's videos are divorced from any kind of reality normal players are going to experience. And the other "creators" are SP shills or are irrelevant. I'm so tired of the false facade, the only one talking any kind of sense or truth about this game is Draupnir. Honestly- Slinky and Szeku should just leave permanently noone will miss them.

Wow that is a good catch! I didn’t even realize it. you get a pin.

Broken how?
He hasn't been nerfed s8nce

@@thefrienemypodcast6073ohhhh that broken
I thought you meant overpowered, no wonder it didn't make sense
I got a dark angel tacticus ad before this video
I got the Ragnar & Spacewolves one.
I'd love to see a character that summons watchers in the dark. They could run around giving passive buffs with a bonus for Dark Angels.
I’m hoping we get Ezekiel
I think Dark Angels is too committed to the older version to change with one character.
Saraquel’s defense slot should switch to a blocking item so he can benefit from Azrael’s passive.

What it do! Welcome back Draupnir, hope you are back to 100% soon.
more powerful Dark Angel synergy would also be nice so a team would be useful. of course the legendary character may provide that in the future.
They need to change the two turns buff on asmodai into a aura buff like ahetana and no cap on turns. Come on, Eldryon already exists.
Or the active keep like now and the pasive extra hits for him and others aura like ancient thoread
Love the DA. Well to clarify I have alot of use for Sarquael and brother Baraq 😂

Ezekiel seems the logical 5th, +1 melee attack adjacent for book and shaken AOE active plus a few more artful details
welcome back!!🎉🎉
azrael not good enough
sarq is good
asmodai sucks a lot
baraq is niche-y gimmick-y kinda maybe good?
hope the 5th character can save my fav faction
Don't forget, Azrael just did get a buff on the December 10 patch, where his health was increased by 11% and his damage by 26%.

Yes...I agree. DA needs something more
I remember hearing that they purposely hang onto the fifth character when games workshop is going to have a new model. Maybe they don't have one coming but snowprint isn't stupid. Dark angels are a beloved faction so while I'm not sure we'll get the amazing legendary hero, they'll make them relevant with some sort of rework and a character that is lore exciting because there's money to be made.

I'd love to see an ICC with Jaeger first strike trait
I just got Asmodai twice in the same 10 pull. I feel robbed.
Inner circle companion it's goning to be the 5th
Really like azreal the active hits hard and for arena his passive with 6arms is a killing machine
Next code
DRAUPNIRYAPPING

They don't fit mechanicaly into any major game mode. Why would you use them? Maybe for guild war only, and even there Asmodai is useless.

the cope angels
dark angels? more like suck angels amirite
