Yeah, the joke with Ciaphas Cain is that he is legitimately heroic and skilled, he just has a horrible case of imposter syndrome and internalized some dumb ideas about how people handle fear. Much like Flashman who he's partially based on he's supposed to be a parody of the character type. Its just the character he's supposed to be parodying is the Imperial Commissar, aka the lovely dudes who shoot dissenters, are always incompetent and mostly make life hell for anyone who crosses their path because they're always sure they're right. So instead he's a chronically anxious wreck who's exceeding nice to people, good at his job without murdering people and terrified one day his whole life is gonna burn down. And in the process becomes insanely popular, powerful and wealthy without ever really internalizing it. The narrative is about his long term girlfriend editing his memoirs and basically continually calling him a dumbass in footnotes and just generally being fun.

I mean, Caiphas Cain gets laid quite a bit and the books framing device is by his long term girlfriend who confirms they definitely were banging for like a hundred years off and on. And you have more explicit romance and sex stuff in the Eisenhorn series. Its not in most books but its not entirely absent either even if they shy away from explicit sex scenes.

Still think its bullshit we didn't get a Freeboota companion but someone got stuck with an even more party-unfriendly Dark Eldar. Owlcat are coward

How effective would doing a Caiphas Cain Chainsword+Las Pistol and huge on leadership and social skills be.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:are there any classes or roles that aren't found in the party members? that is, is there a player class that doesn't double up? Not really? I think the closest you can get is that there is no Pyromancer Psyker companion though you absolutely can eventually spec companions into it. Being an Officer is good choice if you want semi-unique utility because they are the big OP base class and the only early officer you get also has a bunch of strong unique mechanics you can lean into for her to be wildly different.

Sab669 posted:What's a PF? I haven't talked to that one NPC since I first got to my bridge Profit Factor, essentially how insanely wealthy you are. Buying most things doesn't actually cost any resources, it just requires a certain level of profit facyot. It also plays in to things like colony upgrade requirements etc. You can spend/lose it in events or by respecing/creating mercs.

Pattonesque posted:in the setting sometimes when ships enter the warp they don't exit it until like a thousand years have passed in non-warp time. Sometimes they exit the warp before they've left it. some weird poo poo happens in the warp My favorite is when an Ork warboss ended up popping out of the warp right on top of... his own ship that was about to go on that trip. Naturally he killed his past self so he could get two of his favorite gun and managed to almost double the size of his Waaaagh.

emSparkly posted:Can’t you just respec everyone for free? That’s probably gonna be a lifesaver soon when I realize my whole party sucks because I have no idea what abilities I was taking for the past 10 levels. You get 3 free respecs in the base games and then it starts scaling in cost absolutely punishingly and doing it more than a few times after that means never being able to get any of the top tier stuff from shops. Toybox has a free respec feature built in so I would suggest just grabbing that.

Ciaphas posted:Guess I ought to have realized the Navigator would be a party member - I figured I'd give it a pass because it's not like I needed to warp out of the system yet and navigators just do their own thing on the ship in the lore, I'd thought Her initial gun is like the single worst in the game for burst fire, recoil as a stat is just flatly subtracted from your hit rate and it has 40. Just give her a Longlas or Sniper Rifle for now and a better bolter/heavy bolter when you get them later, by level 15 or so she will be death incarnate with rapid fire.
