One item I wished I knew when I started, was when you defeat the boss of a campaign section, you will be given a quest to complete in 24x hours for a requisition scroll. With that in mind, you should try to do that mission when you have the most energy/advert energy and the cheap blackstone energy.
My 1$ tip. Before scrapping an item upgrade it to max first. This will help you get the 2 achievements faster (items upgraded & scraps retrieved) and you lose nothing doing this.
Yeah I mean the curse is always...I could have used this months ago before I started paying them to fuck me. I think I may have gotten a little more fuck for my money.
Might be worth mentioning to new players that if they wish to spend a few £, don't go for the Yarrick offer. Instead find a backissue of the White Dwarf magazine with the Yarrick unlock code and then buy Isabella.
Thank you for this Tacticus intro. I’m sorry for my previous comment. The ipad I was on, I soon found out, had speaker issues. Please forgive me. (Previous comment deleted.)
When I started the game about 6 weeks from now , the game introduced a rate % increased for newer players to acquire epic-legendary heroes for 2 days.. Not sure if it’s still being done but just want to let newer players know
Thanks for the tip on how to turn off screen shake. I looked but didn't realise it was in the battle menu. I'd resorted to just turning my head or closing my eyes during combat to prevent the sickness
@db preacher Ithanks for the tips! I just played against you yesterday in TA. I should have watched this before I played you 😂 thanks for the videos and the match!
Especially Saturday, I make sure I have max energy for the reset. I even save the Ad and 50 BS energy purchase for right before the reset. So I have almost 300 for x2 Coin. Saturday I make sure I use all my energy before Sunday’s reset. I’m level 38 and still depleted of coin but eventually I’ll prioritize EXP.
@@DBPreacherTacticus dude .. literally over the last day I've noticed a significant difference in using the mirror campaigns for common and uncommon items! That might be the best lesser known tip of the game
Great tips. Shame I already got yarrick. He is great though and I loved him since theb90s so. Really useful little tips though. Thanks muchly. The emperor protects. But a big gun never hurt
As a new (VERY new) player hearing about this from Space Marine 2, is it even possible to get the Titus character crossover as a new player? If so, what is the advice for doing so?
It is possible to get the character, yep! However it is not really free sadly. There is a battlepass in the game that you can buy for around 20 bucks. Then you need to play regular missions to complete the battlepass. That plus the upcoming Titus event will let you open the character.
@@DBPreacherTacticus So I don’t need a leveled set of characters, gear, or whatever? I can progress the pass well enough as a new player with starting characters? I only have the 5 Ultramarines at bare bones power so far.
Simply because energy gets you gear and character shards more efficiently than buying requisition scrolls. The major gate in this game is gear to level your characters and so that is more important in the long run.
You and me both. I felt that it was a bit too early for me to commit to playing the game but I wish I could have changed that! It would have made the early game much easier!
I didn't have the option but felt the same way about Yarrick nobody let you know back then that you'd need him for Cadia mirror and when the game first launched he was a must have now not so much
No, it’s definitely not. There is no pay to win here, there is simply pay to progress. I have people in my guild that haven’t paid a single penny in a year. I invest a little bit for the battlepass and monthly Blackstone (around 20 quid per month), but the enjoyment I get out of the game is worth it. It’s really up to you how you want to play.
@@DBPreacherTacticushi, sorry this might be a really silly question, but what is the difference between pay to progress and pay to win? Genuine question btw
It’s a really great question! There are a bunch of different strategies in pay to win games, those are two of them. The difference between them is: - Pay to progress: If you don’t have time to play as much as others, then you can pay to keep up with them. So for example, students may have a bit more free time to play but workers may have more disposable income to pay. - for pay to win, this is really where the game is completely built around players having to spend money to compete with each other. Usually there will be server resets and races to the top of leaderboard based on money. In tacticus, if you have two players start at the same time, one playing a lot and be paying a lot, they are roughly equal where they end up. It’s not equal exactly but more so than other games. The biggest problem is the difference between players that started a year ago and those that started now.
@@dbpreacher69 I see, thanks for answering, I started quite recently and am finding it hard to join a guild as I keep getting rejected. Can I ask, is it better to get 10 requisition scrolls at a time or use them one at a time? I understand there is a guarantee of a hero if you use 10 at once, but I'm wondering if that means that you will only get 1 per 10 (I. E. If you use the scrolls separately you might be able to get more than 1 character)
Always use ten pulls. My latest video explains a bit of the numbers behind it but it’s basically more likely for you to get characters from 10 pulls than single pulls.
Last tip I promise. If you are the super competitive type and unsure if you want to be F2P or P2P then I strongly encourage you to be P2P until you can unlock LRE without buying any bundles. Then switch to F2P. Buy a BattlePass and the monthly Blackstone(BS) bundle. With your BS, buy up to the 110 BS for energy daily. The reason I say this is because you’ll miss out on so many “Unfarmable” Legendary characters. I’ve been playing for 6 months, and spent a little over $100. I’ll hit level 39 (500k Power) in a day or two. Tacticus is the best mobile game I’ve ever played. Good luck and I’ll see yas on the TA battlefields
My beginners guide talk about the order you should be levelling things and that includes ascending. Generally, yeah but not before getting up the rarity

Yeah that’s a nasty one that catches people out. I do include that in my big beginner guide but you are right I should have redone it here!

That is definitely the kind of optimisation that I love ^^
i wish there were videos like these when i was a new player... well done sir! amazing job as always! :D
Thank you brother! I also wish I had them too!!!
Yeah I mean the curse is always...I could have used this months ago before I started paying them to fuck me. I think I may have gotten a little more fuck for my money.

That is also a really great piece of advice!
Unfortunately the Yarrick code has an expiry date. I have the leaflet but can't unlock Yarrick
That code expired on 2024-03-31
Doesn't matter. Go for Isabella anyways.
So wish I knew this.

Yeah I did work if that would be one that was quite useful for some!!
Great guide! Even though I’ve been playing for 2 months, there’s still useful stuff! :)
I was never offered Yarrick or Isabella D:
Thank you 🙏❤️
@db preacher Ithanks for the tips! I just played against you yesterday in TA. I should have watched this before I played you 😂 thanks for the videos and the match!
Haha, thanks for the match and good luck with the rest of the season ❤️
I also buy the equipment from the shop so I can scrap them. The Uncommon is better value than Rare. Rare gives more scraps though.
That is a really interesting idea, never done that personally but then never really pushed my weapons enough!

Yeah you are still in the “gold deficit” part of the game. I was stuck there until mid lvl 40 I would say
Shit I didn't know mirror campaigns had better odds 😂 I've been playing for a year!
Yeah that was something I made a mess of for a long time and was one of the first things I went and dug into from a numbers perspective!

Thank you for the kind words ❤️
started week ago :) thx for the tips
You are welcome! Enjoy the game and def check out some of my other beginner guides if you have some time.
Great video as always, but I’m surprised you didn’t mention anything about daily missions to get Aethana shards
I know there was things I would forget 🤦♂️
Thank You for this Guide! It covers many details! I uninstalled the game after this video, cauz I realized how much of an investment it is.
Oh my, not sure that was my goal!
Chris Pratt as a space marine, for your thumbnail.
I'm jealous.
Haha, that’s a good idea 😂
Started playing today. Ive opened quite a few requisition scrolls when i should have bundled them together :/
It’s ok, we all did things like this when beginning. The difference isn’t massive so you are OK.

There might be missions that you need more characters for. It depends on the daily missions.
If you missee isabela offer will it come back somehow?
It doesn’t, however Isabella is in this months battlepass or you can get a code for her in this months white dwarf magazine!
As a guild leader of a newcomer friendly guild i have 3 prepared texts. The character limit in guild chat is quite good but i still need 3 😅
Haha, me too!!!
Love your videos can you make a video about campaign walkthrough from Zero to Astartes
That would certainly be a titanic undertaking ❤️
Awesome video. Why not spend blackstone in requisition, though?
Simply because energy gets you gear and character shards more efficiently than buying requisition scrolls. The major gate in this game is gear to level your characters and so that is more important in the long run.
@@DBPreacherTacticus that makes sense. Thanks.
Damn now I regret not buying Isabelle... Even if I'm sticking to the free to play for now
You and me both. I felt that it was a bit too early for me to commit to playing the game but I wish I could have changed that! It would have made the early game much easier!
I’ve been playing for 6 months and it’s my biggest regret

I'm just started to play last weekend and I love the game. Is it necessary to spend money to progress in the game?
No, it’s definitely not. There is no pay to win here, there is simply pay to progress. I have people in my guild that haven’t paid a single penny in a year.

It depends on your goals! He is one of the highest scoring champions in legendary events and a constant part of tournament arena teams.

these Cooldowns are k!lling me, tired of waiting almost a day to full
This game is not something to be rushed. I play in the morning and then in the evening, unless there is some event going on.
I just want to know if I should be ascending my characters 🥲 no guide ever mentions it
