i find it no suprise that the community at large just seen the damage numbers for the auto pre buff and thought its trash. anyone who used it understood what it could do pre 4.0. But with the damage increase it should be evident to all that stats do not tell the whole story. there was quite a few that slept on it myself included and after trying it before 4.0 and now after i can say it does exactly what it was meant to. clear everything in a room.
@@isnobodyreally102 completely agree..I had a really similar experience with the stalker bolt rifle when the game first released. Everyone was focused on the las Fusil. The stalker bolt WAS and IS insane! I think the main thing with tactical on the non-cheese weapons is rotating the pistol and using that auto reload passive from auspex to keep that damage output up!
niah, only thing auto bolt and heavy bolt had going for them was accuracy. Against ranged majoris with the auto bolt u do atm body 4.08 dmg and head 9.18 dmg. Bolt Rifle does body 5.76 dmg and head 17.28 dmg (cause 3x headshot multi) + the Grenade Launcher variant. Stalker was always great cause headshot multi of 4x which does 45.12 dmg, now pair that with a scan or other buffs and shit goes down :D. now on top of that with the latest balancing the carbine smg version in close range got buffed and is a beast when spraying headshots (14.4 dmg).
I wish Marked For Death Only Triggered on Enemies that you use your actual Auspex Scan on, because if you take the Scan on Parry Perk, you'll waste Marked For Death on Majoris Enemies a lot of the time and then when you need it, its on cool down.
All I need is a video of someone playing space marine 2 as Arnold Schwarzenegger! I even looked it up and no one made even one ! That would be so funny
I haven't noticed these buffs on anything except heavy bolt rifle. For the most part everything that was good before became a little bit better, but unnoticable in gameplay and what was bad still remains bad (carbines - regular and cockulus - and auto rifle), instigator still requires almost a whole mag to make a major red and it has atrotious ammo economy. Bolt sniper rifle still has no purpose because laser exists. And anyway I still would prefer a plasma rifle over any bolt gun on tactical, that thing has infinite ammo, nukes majors and crowds alike and doesn't suffer from mobs with tiny head like stalker does.
Am i missing something with the heavy bolt rifle? The GCA seems to have 1 accuracy more than the OLB, at a cost of a TON of ammo. Is that trade really worth it?
@@factsoftheconfederacy7151 Its definitely not the first time and it won't be last time I make the mistake! The annoying thing is I actually do know the difference! I just always seem to say it when I'm freestyling!
thats one reason, why most rnd players on t5 or t4 just sucks :D Heavy player with ammo instead of dmg range reduction....S Tier Stalker? funny, cause the las fuil is 1000% better... :D grenade launcher bolter still the best.

I was already a heavy bolter enjoyer, but now it's feel so powerful.
I'm convinced PhaseShifter was a lictor in another life

Weaving in barrage of headshots immediately after a gunstrike has made the bolt weapons a lot more viable for me

That out of cloak chunk bonus damage!
Best intro 😂❤💀
That intro 😂
There is only one bolter for me. One with grenades. It seems insane to use anything else.
What type of chainsword for the heavy bolt rifle? Block, Balanced, or Perry?

Tactical has no issues with ammo once you get the ammo restoration perk, making your shots count with accuracy for more headshots is way better imo
It’s a magazine, not a clip my good sir
@@factsoftheconfederacy7151 yeah, damn it!
I’m in the firearms industry, just a minor pet peeve of mine lol

bolters are still the worst weapons in the game unfortunately

Tbh bolter buffs are too low, they still miles off other weapons
