That being said, congratulations to the Op, you nailed a lot of the problems that I couldn't pinpoint. But lets see what happens when the next patch comes out today.
How can you equip survival vials and heal stations on WP? Mine keeps trying to steal apothecary pants (not kidding) when I try to save alternate loadouts, so I'm stuck with the premade ones (made from 100% tinfoil, wire, spit and wishful thinking alloy). Someone found a workaround for the bug?
You could pre last wipe. Now I haven't tried(dark angels now) the corgie priest, but you can do exact same combination for apo, making LSM healers toughest to kill. Corgie priest needs to wait for patch 24 before ascending into healing terminator again.
They're just trying to stay true to tabletop. Now please give twice the attack speed, 50% chance to ignore damage and twice the HP, so we can have a proper Wolf Priest.
There's no bubble. Warlock might be the second worst healer in the game but I didn't say he was a healer I said he was a support class. Of course SM apothecary should be better at healing because it's the only way he can support his team with anything special. A warlock on the other hand can heal and has other spells to support his team. If warlocks are so bad it's strange that we see so many of them and particularly so many of them leading the charge to storm capture points.
Umm, apo can heal AND can be very effective at melee AND ranged AND provides buffs for the team via vial effects. Whatever warlock can do, Apo can do it as well, but passively, except for direct combat, which apo can do while healing, but warlock needs to forego healing to fight, unless you have only 1 specific healing spell. Also, I don't know where do you see all these warlocks. Played through tall the weekend, haven't seen more then 4 during any game except for harkus defence, where you could see more. Perhaps you confused them with banshees and scorpions, who are recently more popular due to mods making them actually viable melee option?
I'm sure Warlock strong attack speed are faster than Astartes, just like the Banshee video. Scorpions as well. If you dont see how this is game breaking then we really have nothing more to discuss.
