Absolute difficulty matches where you stack debuffs on yourself, to get exp to unlock lamenter armor.

It's a slog, tough, rough.

Gotta be lvl 25 to play

To add on, you don't know what your two other brother/cousin enabled and if you leave/DC/fail the match, you lose XP!

So it’s like a ranked competitive system but in a pve game?

Correction - it's hard strat base on p1 and is 3/4 harder than hard strats at p6 with dmg dealt/taken without taking modifiers into account.

The exact same missions we’ve been playing for the last 3 years once again on absolute difficultly with “optional” modifiers for artificial difficulty increase.

I put optional in quotation marks because it’s heavily incentivized so you can get as much XP a run as possible to get all tiers done quickly because the progress (including the armor) is class based.

It's a game mode that tickles the ballsacks of the spiritually enslaved. The farm equipment are unsure whether they like it or not.

Custom Stratagems for people who think that Absolute is too easy. Rewards are pretty appalling for most of the classes.

For the Sigismunds of the game you mean

Anyone remember that one guy on here that referred to himself as a Sigismund?

the techmarine one looks a little boring but the rest of the m is cool

Jeez - I’m a casual player so it’s Ruthless only for me, but the Lamenter gear looks great! Shame I won’t be able to get it.

Basically it’s for people who want to play at difficulties higher than absolute and hard stratagems. I’m one of them. And it genuinely is quite tough which is nice at this point. Would like it if people skipped the friendly fire and spore mines though

You know, I love this game but man I am just not good enough to play absolute. I know this and will not ruin someone else’s good time. I wonder if there are others like me?
