Greetings Space Marines!
In today’s blog, we’ll give you a complete presentation of the upcoming new class, the Techmarine!
Playstyle
The Techmarine is a specialist in crowd control and zoning. His arsenal can hold off both crowds of enemies and individual dangerous opponents while his allies safely deal damage. Gameplay-wise, the Techmarine is a mixed class with a slight melee bias. Unlike the Bulwark, who also keeps enemies away from attacking classes, the Techmarine is more focused on pressuring enemies with wide AoE melee attacks and mid-range firearms.
Abilities
His special ability, the Servo-Gun, unleashes a powerful volley on nearby enemies. Additionally, the Techmarine can detect and activate Tarantula Sentry Guns on the levels. They will attack enemies until they run out of ammo or are destroyed.
A unique characteristic of the Techmarine is the integration of the Servo-Gun during Gun Strikes. This allows for greater movement freedom compared to other classes during these actions, for instance you can perform melee attacks while using a Gun Strike.
Arsenal
The Techmarine can use the following weapons:
Primary Weapons:
Auto Bolt Rifle
Bolt Rifle
Heavy Bolt Rifle
Occulus Bolt Carbine
Plasma Incinerator
Secondary Weapons:
Bolt Pistol
Heavy Bolt Pistol
Plasma Pistol
Inferno Pistol
Neo-Volkite Pistol
Melee Weapons:
Combat Knife
Power Sword
Power Axe
Omnissian Axe
As you can see, the Techmarine’s unique array of weapons includes the standout Omnissian Axe. This new melee weapon is exclusive to the Techmarine, and it’s perfect for handling multiple smaller enemies simultaneously due to its wide AoE attacks. It also has a special move, the “Omnissian Rush”, which makes the Techmarine rush forward, impaling the enemies.
Perks
We thought that you might be interested to know the perks the Techmarine will have. You can check out this short video and pause to read all the perks effects, but keep in mind that some values can still change until the release of Patch 12.
That’s it for our Techmarine blog! We hope it gave you a complete overview of this new class, and that you’re excited to test it when Patch 12 releases!
The Emperor protects.
