I was wondering if it would possible to include a unique action to the healer classes for all the factions on their fallen brethren (On the ragdolls preferably). Something that are important aspects to lore, and to give these support classes a little more XP. These are what I had in mind. The apothicary is crucial role in the chapter. They are in charge of the creation of new Astartes, and ensure that their genetic structure is stable throughout the difficult trials of becoming a Space Marine. In battle, they serve as combat medics that can perform surgery and bring Astartes near death back into the frey with their advance medical training. However, not everyone can be saved, and there are those battlebrothers who die in battle. As a final service to the fallen brother, the Apothicaries extract the Geneseed from the deceaced, so that a new generation of Space Marines can be created, ensuring the survival of the chapter. It would be cool to see Apothicaries extract the geneseed of space marines to simulate that reality of 40k. For the Eldar, they are a dying race. Due to the birth of Slaanesh, when an eldar dies, their soul would be devoured by the Prince of Excess. To prevent this, the Eldar use spirit stones to capture to soul so that they do not feed She Who Thirsts. A Warlock could be the one who retrieves the spirit stones from the fallen Eldar Warrior so that their spirit goes on serving the Craftworld. Orks die by the droves in lore. Many if which die at the hands of Pain Boyz and how Orks use "teef" as their currency. Think of how a Pain Boy collects payments for the "medical bills" from a dead ork. Something a little light-hearted, yet still brutal. Fits with the orks perfectly. (Can't really find a picture for a painboy collecting teef) Now for Chaos, I have had some trouble with it. My first thought was that the Sorcerer could collect skulls from the champions of Khorne, for Khorne. But... Khorne? Sorcerers? That would be silly. So instead I propose the sorcerer capturing the souls of fallen Chaos warriors to be recirculated into the warp for a possible revival like Eliphas? Or simply as a means for Tzeentch to piss off Khorne. That works too. To reiterate the purpose of this thread, I wanted to know if this was possible to implement, even if it was just for a a handful of XP. It wouldn't really affect combat or balancing that much if at all, and it would provide more depth to the factions for their rituals and culture. What do you guys think?
Well it sounds like only xP farming to me So let's give it some gameplay components Apothecary: extracting geneseed will lower the spawn time of this dead brother to 0. Sorcerer: this one can be a bit more tricky. Either he would drain energy from the dead body to overcharge his warp energy ( getting more warp energy then the cap allows) or he could revive the dead to act as a marionette for a few sec until he falls over dead again. I think the first one is a better choice. Painboy: he could either stomp the dead ork to release more spores, this would lower the spawn time for all dead orks by 1 sec. Or he could refill his healing juice from the dead body. I prefer the first method Warlock: I'm not an eldar maniac so I don't really know. He would collect soulstones for sure. Maybe just the same as SM it would set the spawn time to 0 for that fallen eldar Any other suggestions?
Focusing more on combat instead of an unnecessary medical rite just to shoehorn it into the game seems far more ideal to me.
