The heavy doesnt need a melee because he is the melee. He can perform aoe stomps that make short work of a swarm and can rival horde clear of the chainsword. There really is no downside.
I must admit thunder hammer is great but I’m more a heavy with multimelta guy But feel free to join my squad anytime I could do with someone to clear hordes so I can weaken bosses for the due list to take them out

Started with vanguard. Liked him so much that I maxed him out and got all of the relic weapons and armor. S tier class for sure. I can get through ruthless difficulty missions fighting massive hordes of the toughest enemies without going down once. It’s even easier if you have a friend who plays bulwark.
Yeah I almost exclusively run vanguard with melta and knife. It’s basically anti-everything. Melta just deletes swarms and knife and bolter for deleting target. And you basically get a free guardian relic every 3 minutes.
@@fh_noble3028 not sure about that but I more consistently bring majoris enemies to the finisher state after grappling them. But mostly it just looks cool on the vanguard, must I really have another reason?
Bulwark is melee tank, heavy is gunner tank edit: it sickens me that the simplest of my comments on youtube is my most liked but thank you to everyone who did
The Heavy is my personal pick. What's better than maniacally laughing while you mow down your enemies with daka while your heavy armor offers superb protection.
Bulwark, heavy and either a tactical or assault Heavy with multi melts is great for fire support and clearing things Tactical can backup that with a meltagun or other ranged weapon while also being able to clear hoardes in melee A bulwark works great with this to get right in the middle of it all a must have to go with the heavy You can swap tac with an assault depending on player preference
@@cesar88mlonly if the player is not that great with the class. Consider it a trade off with a ranged stun with the ability of powerful drop attacks and that dive kick will bring down the guard of a bulwark.
The bulwark is the tank that is up close and deals heavy melee and draws the attention, the heavy is the tank that will throw up a shield and then start delivering blistering machine gun fire, get up close and personal with the multi-melta which does devastating damage at close range, for the heavy plasma incinerator, which when charged is essentially a grenade launcher.
I've gotten really into vanguard. I started off with Bulwark since I donlike chopping things down but on the harder difficulties I do like having two weapons I can use at range.
I just wanna say Vanguard’s deserve some love we will put our lives on the line just to prevent reinforcements from coming in, and for those of you that let us and snipers have the armor upgrades u are a saint 🙏🏽
For those struggling with parrying on Bulwark, you have to tap the parry button or you’ll just block. I used to think it was the worst class because of no parry ability until I learned that. Now I’m able get more kills than people with range weapons pretty often. The power sword is so strong.

*Potentially* reckless? Let me assure you brother, the only uncertainty in our assault against the enemies of mankind is how much health I'll have left for the next fight.
I play mostly assault and heavy, both to class level 7 so far, and idk what people are talking about that the assault is bad compared to other classes. Able to reach top place on most games. At other times, it gives good assists. You dont go charging as the frontline as the assault class. You gotta play with your maneuverability and backdoor or surprise enemies from platforms above where enemies least expect it while they are fighting other teammates.
@hm9715 sort of. You'll tank the hit but also be hit back a but with a small animation. I find tyrinids to be harder than chaos imo but blood letters with shields are annoying. Just get good at parrying that'll carry you far
Bulwark cause my boy I want a big shield and a massive sword going with it what is a point of a shield if you do not have a sword this class I love it a badass guy and+he wears a hood that's a big point
Me and my buddy were going through all the trials and we both ironically found that the Tactical had the hardest 💀 at least when I got off we thought that, I stopped after the Vanguard I’ll update this comment if I find a more difficult one 👍🏻

Funny enough as a Templar, I love the Vanguard. The ability to close in and duel any enemy is perfection especially as they stun from the grapple.
Gonna wait for the poweraxe to play a Space Wolf bulwark
We are the emperors champions after all
It’s cool that the three classes from space marine 1’s pvp multiplayer return as some of the classes in the sequel.

Your service does not go ignored Brother. For the Imperium!
They shall know the wrath of the daka Astartes
I might be a swap between Bulwark and heavy. Since I want to be a tank, and use both melee and guns
I have thousands of likes on multiple comments and most of them are depressing. So idk which is worse 😂

I'm loving Heavy. The stomp is a gamble, but not really necessary once you get some levels and weapon upgrades.
The heavy and the bulwark should have 4 tics of armor.
They do in PvP, but it also melts exceptionally fast. I'm hoping the missing armor in PvE is a bug.
Would love to see an apothecary class and chaplin class
Bulwark, heavy and either a tactical or assault
Heavy with multi melts is great for fire support and clearing things
Tactical can backup that with a meltagun or other ranged weapon while also being able to clear hoardes in melee
A bulwark works great with this to get right in the middle of it all a must have to go with the heavy
You can swap tac with an assault depending on player preference
Me playing vanguard with a melta rifle:
"What do you mean I'm a one on one duelist?"
You had me at reckless
Incorrect, my heavy carries a melee weapon. His foot
You say I'm reckless, I say I have 'Finesse'
Vanguard is by far the coolest one
Assault? I know
Thats right, Phobos for life!
@@Doylepointsminis lol it’s not that great on eternal war tho
You a follower of the Trifold path too?
@@cesar88mlonly if the player is not that great with the class. Consider it a trade off with a ranged stun with the ability of powerful drop attacks and that dive kick will bring down the guard of a bulwark.
The heavy is my favourite, love the huge weapons and you can slaughter all the enemies before they reach you with help from your friends too

All I really miss in this game is a Shotgun, the Big Gun Guy with a Shotgun as second weapon would be pure Battle Love.
I've gotten really into vanguard. I started off with Bulwark since I donlike chopping things down but on the harder difficulties I do like having two weapons I can use at range.
The armour just got cooler as it went on
The heavy with a multi melta is like doom guy with a shootgun
Bulwark is probably gonna be my go to. I like Tank style classes.
Same.
Vanguard is also ad clear as the Melta gun pierces and 'melts' everything
Excited to play today! For honor brothers!
I just wanna say Vanguard’s deserve some love we will put our lives on the line just to prevent reinforcements from coming in, and for those of you that let us and snipers have the armor upgrades u are a saint 🙏🏽
Heavy is so fun, just mowing the lawn makes you feel so badass

Brother...The heavy bolter. The heavy bolter brother.
I’m really good with my Bulkwark, kinda only like that class run 😂
I'm choosing bulwark because i like sword and shield
The heavy is definitely the tank class
Assault class is by far my favorite. Bonking the enemy for the Emperor as the Black Templar is great
been grinding assault class... need em fists! loving every minute of the game!
All classes should have access to all primary, secondary, and melee weapons
Just started playing the campaign only one little mission tho I’m waiting for my boy to be able to play with me this game is amazing already

Tactical is my go to
I so wish I could play this
Honestly I might just go straight to assault cuz I find the guns kinda daunting
@@personman4639 Bulwark is more simple and helps your team in a more direct understandable way than assault, i've been playing as it for a while
That’s true what the guy said up top, but that jump pack hammer combo is chef kiss for assault. Felt like I was space marine Thor haha
Assault is tricky class if u wanted to initiate fight. Not to damaging sometime so find the moment to initiate the battle
Just been given the game great tips
Definitely gunnu be playing the heavy and assault
As someone who's bad at shooting, bulwark is my calling
Vanguard with melta rifle is the one true horde clear, this has been a PSA
I know it's already been said and it shall be said again
"I am heavy weapons guy..."
still waiting for the review of Sins of a Solar Empire 2 !!!
It's literally helldivers but Warhammer
They did a great job balancing the classes for PvE. PvP is assault class paradise
That's me, wreckless
Playing a space wolf colored bulwark, im having fun being the front line warrior
FOR THE EMPEROR
Assault needs a buff, the class really struggles on ruthless
In that vanguard Armor is that frank castle? lol I'm kidding that skull always reminds me of the punisher

Nice!
*Potentially* reckless? Let me assure you brother, the only uncertainty in our assault against the enemies of mankind is how much health I'll have left for the next fight.
I still have yet to find another marine to run vangaurd. Easily my favorite class.
The tactical class always gets the most kills in every match. It's just too good. The heavy is good too but easily countered by the bulwark's shield.
I play mostly assault and heavy, both to class level 7 so far, and idk what people are talking about that the assault is bad compared to other classes. Able to reach top place on most games.

Do you know how he did the forward jump pack dash attack with the thunder hammer in this vid?
No, the assault barely gets in the air, it's like he farts 2 meters up unlike any other assault in other modes
Tactical with auto bolter is the best for this game
Heavy where only the melta kills every other wepons and water pistols
Bulwark still requires to be decent at parrying. Im lvl 25 now and the shield will block 1 parryable melee hit then your open.
Oh you have one "blue" attack for free?
@hm9715 sort of. You'll tank the hit but also be hit back a but with a small animation. I find tyrinids to be harder than chaos imo but blood letters with shields are annoying. Just get good at parrying that'll carry you far
Which one uses fire, I want a flamethrower
Give us a healer. And by healer. Haha let's just say a battle sister
Assault or Vanguard. Isstvan V less we forget
Wish I had time to play 😢 but job keeps me too busy
I love playing Siper, always helping my bros out by weakening enemies
I don’t care what class it is. If there’s a big one then I’m whipping out my mellow and dialing it
Ah bulwark… truly clever naming… this is probably an old name in the lore.
As in not new.
I want to play this so bad 😭
It looks like the Tactical here is actually Intercessor because those are Primaris
if this ends up being a sick rpg game but works like helldivers wehre you go into instance missions to slay tyranids and greenskins will be amazing!
No mele I stomp, twice
Where are my heavy brother's?
Who needs a melee weapon if you are gene modified gigachad in power armor?
Have not treated myself to a game in while because nothing has appealed to me but seriously debating this or Star Wars outlaws
Get this. Outlaws is not worth it
I'm not an outlaws downer like lots of folks, but get this.
I've bought both and don't think star wars outlaws is bad by any stretch but space marine 2 is definitely the pick
Dafuq you mean debate this or star wars outlaws? This is the clear and ONLY choice.
havent tried outlaws, but it feels expensive for it's quantity of content, so i'm waiting for an inevitable sale in the future
No warp class 😢
Assault not having a primary ranged weapon is infuriating.
Unfortunately the heavy tends to run out of ammo pretty quickly. It's not great.
Sure, I’m reckless, but all those Horus’ aren’t going to purge themselves…
im gonna buy this next friday, any tips before i start?
The grapple guy is a reiver right?
Yup yup lookin sick with that helm
Yeah, but there is no phobos helmet in the option so its kinda let me down
Also, when you play as heavy the ammo is scarce.
Heavy all the way ☠️
Bulwark cause my boy I want a big shield and a massive sword going with it what is a point of a shield if you do not have a sword this class I love it a badass guy and+he wears a hood that's a big point
I still want a mini stagger when receiving a melee hit, bro i cant go against a heavy, he will just gun me down while i melee him

Ironic that the most elite cadre is the one that is recommended to try first.

Look, i like the Black Templars, so bulwark is what im doing when i get the game, that, or the jack of all trades as a Grey Knight,
