    late to the party, but using the infestus mechadendrite that deals 1 physical damage and shoves the enemy away 1 tile is clutch on your ranged-specialized techpriest. it can get them put of melee combat

  • @dac314
    @dac314 2 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    In the early game, spicier weapon+1 pistol+1 melee weapon deals enough damage, but eventually you'll want to specialize each tech-priest into a different damage type, and include the item that boosts that damage type for big turns! Double-flamers or double arc-rifle shots is only improved when you've juiced the damage type with enhancers!

    • @TalonGaming_YT
      @TalonGaming_YT  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Absolutely! Thanks for sharing. I do recommend specializing at least some of your tech-priests in specific damage types and taking full advantage of all the bonuses. I did purposefully leave some of my priests unspecialized though which gave them many options for most every situation. The game honestly became quite easy using the methods I employed. Even the very last boss fight wasn't particularly challenging. It really is fun though, to have a player move half-way across the map to melee and kill like nobody's business! Thanks for watching!!

    Heres a cheeky cheat: when exploring the maze always keep saving at this point. Try a glyph or scene option - if its a crap one, reload the save until you get a good one so you can take maximum cog points into battle - then when you go to move on, save again before the next room.
    It can be tedious but in the long run if your priests are not damaged and cogged up it will make for maximum advantage overall.

    • @TalonGaming_YT
      @TalonGaming_YT  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Definitely doable this way, although it's basically like you said, cheating. I'm not saying I would ever do such a thing lol.

      I think it's pretty rare that you don't unlock them. Although, I was more than half-way through the game by the time I unlocked them if I recall. I remember doing missions that gave items as bonuses and ended up with the refractor shield.
