Heavy SHREDS Chaos Hordes In Weekly Stratagem 46 With HEROIC Heavy Bolter - Solo | Space Marine 2

In this run we take Heavy with Heroic Heavy Bolter to Weekly Stratagem 46 in PTS 14.0. Conditions: Sharpshooter - Ranged Damage at greater than 10 metres is increased by 75% Warp Storm - A psychic storm periodically hits Squad Unity - When you do not maintain close proximity to Squad Members, Armour and Contested Health restoration are disabled Map: Obelisk So in this run we didn't do a true solo, that is because "Squad Unity" makes it nearly impossible to do so. Without teammates you can't heal or restore armor. Despite the description saying it only disables Contested Health restoration, is also disables non CHP healing as well. So things like Vanguard's heal perks and med stimms can't get around this stratagem. Trust me I've tried. Essentially every little chip damage you take is unrecoverable in true solo. So had to settle with playing with Bots, sorry. Now I did this run in the PTS and the condition doesn't seemed bugged like in the current live version. In the live version the deactivation trigger is 20m while the activation range is 15m. So if you walk within 15m of teammate restoration works normally, but if after you walk 20m away it disables the restoration. But in the PTS both activation and deactivation range is 15m. So you can't stand a little over 15m to retain HP regen. Also the PTS has Terminator Sorcerer which can quickly sneak in attacks like laser. Bots are dumb and very often will run away from you to fight some minoris out in the distance instead of fighting along with you against a boss. So you can suddenly just not have armor and chp regen. A lot of enemies can also combo and push you away from your teammates. If you had chp while next to your teammate and then get pushed away or if the teammate walks away, you will lose all the CHP. So restorative stimms lose a lot of value here. On top of this toxic ass modifier we have Warp Storm which creates a psychic storm on each player every 30s with a 6m radius. (Fun fact the siege Warp Storm hits every 45s.) It tries to predict where the player will be in 2s. If you are grouped tightly with your teamates it can be hard to dodge because you will have 3 storms close together. It also seems to go for the bots first then spawns one on you after theirs go off. It doesn't do much damage at 3.9 per hit, and even has a property that makes it not damage over armor, but the real danger of it comes from the stagger. It will mess up dodge and parry timings especially against bosses. Patterns that you are used to dodging and parry can suddenly be messed up by one of these. The only postitive modifier is the Sharpshoot modifier, which is one of the strongest ones, increasing ranged damage by 75% if over 10m. This makes taking ranged orientated class a strong option. We take heavy with heroic heavy bolter. I will say after using it more, I don't really like heroic heavy bolter against chaos. The heating if too fast and you have to wait forever to shoot again. Chaos don't melee as often so I'm not getting the gunstrikes to refresh the heat built. In a previous I used Damage variant Heavy bolter against chaos and it felt so much better due to the longer firing duration. But of course the fencing parry window makes life much easier especially against terminator sorcerer. Honestly heroic heavy plasma or charge rate heavy plasma would have worked out better for this run. Secondary is just fire rate plasma pistol, could have went for heroic as well. Class build is normal Heavy build. Nothing interesting, but that's mostly because heavy doesn't have other interesting perks and has low build variety, even if his current go to build is strong. P.S. fuck squad unity. If anyone can true solo this stratagem props to them.
