2:28 just look at how amazing the physics and visuals of the water are as the hammer hits it... Looks so smooth and life like. Above everything the design and graphics of this game blow me away every time..
Thank you for the videos on assault. They have helped so much. I just learned you can dodge forward + attack into mobs to get same outcome of sprint/attack. Such a fun class
In the DLC road map, 3 chapters are going to get extra cosmetics than others. 1 is confirmed Dark Angels, i believe the other 2 are going to be Blood Angels and Space Wolves.
Great guide. I literally started doing all this stuff two days ago so it's so cool to see the guide on it. The only other thing I do in addition to this is charge up the aftershock by literally just tapping it for half a second. You don't have to hold it any longer than having his hand reach the hammer. If you do it though you'll probably going to lose one armor but there's almost always going to be a gun strike afterwards
Pommel smash straight into ground slam then hip fire, baits out a parry, hip fire a couple shots between the first and second parry which puts then into execution.
I SO needed this advice brother, now I shall slaughter using your tactics! I hear Assault is regarded as the worst PvE class but to be honest it gives me the most fun currently, same as bulwark: as the Emperor's my witness, I just LOVE me some warhammer and powersword action and those classes deliver.
Technically to be a good assault all you need is: 1) Armor regen from crit shots perk 2) Ability regen from jump attack kills perk 3) Fencing weapon And that's basically it. You fly here and there nuking everyone while being immortal. Only bulwark lives longer.
Yeah assault is insane, i don't understand why people are saying it is bad. Super strong and fun class to use by far my favorite, and the best performance i had were on it too
@@zerzo7223 must be because every second random assault lies on the ground for the half of mission🙃 But overall there are 0 bad classes in this game, everyone is strong. The only problem I have with assault is that leveling him up until the bottom string of perks was a bit painful. Though it was pre-patch before the parry buff.
@@zerzo7223 more then that: game doesn't have too much content for using fully upgraded characters and weapons. For example my favorite class is bulwark, but I don't even remember when I used it last time because I have all weapons and armor skins...
Parry to cancel animation is a good tip. I’ll surely keep that in mind. I usually, if not all the time, lose armor because I can’t dodge the attack mid charge. Thanks!
Man you have such a great understanding of this game g. Absolutely changed the way i play assault! Hopefully the class gets some much needed love here soon but this video is gonna have more people running it imo. Good shit
I keep thinking your content can't get any better & you keep proving me wrong. I love it, I'll be practicing the animation cancelling immediately. You did again Pips, great content
This unlocks another level to the class. I noticed how fluid the parries were with the hammer but I never thought to to animation cancel after a ground slam. Thanks for the tip
Yep, been playing the hammer wrong and the animation cancel will change how I play this class now, so thank you! Assault has been one of the harder classes to master imo, as I've only the sniper to level up. Now that I've seen what is possible, Assault should be a better experience gameplay wise. And subbed!👍
Id like to know this as well. In the perk tree under artificer there is a seismic chain perk which allows an additional ground slam. And further down under relic there is another perk called aftershock improved which adds an additional spin to aftershock. I dont have my hammer to relic level yet so I can only assume you need that perk to do what he is doing in this video.
Assault is NOT a trash clearing class. It does clear trash as a side effect, but that should never be your goal. Assault has some of the highest burst damage in the game. You are the melee sniper. At level 25 with the right perks and Relic weapons an assault can put all mid tier enemies like rubrics into execute range almost instantly. I use jump pack to pick out dangerous snipers are the rubric flamers and end them immediately. Even things like terminators can be taken down within a few seconds. Because our gun strikes do so much damage we can bully everything in this game.
I like using my jump pack as much as possible. Therefore I clear trash. If I wanted to use the gun soo much, I'd play sniper. The Emperor's enemies will know death from above.
Great tips dude thx! Bit more info for pvp side.. That animations cancel after jetpack actually works on pvp side simple reminder for melee bruiser brothers arround ^^

I’ve love how engaging the assaults playstyle can be, an have been maining it after maxing the other classes. However I just wish the class had a bit more going for it in terms of damage. It’s definitely in my opinion the most fun class, but that doesn’t necessarily make it the most effective class. Also with this new update it’s introduced this consistent stuttering issue that just hampers the experience, at least for me. Especially with a class that realizes so much on parrying.
One thing I noticed with Enemies not attacking is as soon as you start attacking they will often too. Dont know if thats coded into their behavior but with this you can often bait attacks by starting an attack but canceling it into a parry.
Did you know you can do drop down attacks like with the jetpack with out jetpack and targeting circle just jump off a ledge and press Melee mid air and you'll do a strike down
My favourite class are Assault, Tactical and Bulwark. When I play Assault and Bulwark Neurothropes and Zoanthropes are really annoying to deal. Plasma Pistol and Heavy Bolt Pistol is just not enough to deal with them(may be for Zoanthropes if you have full ammo if not u are dead) I have to wait for Neurothropes melee phase or rely on my teammates.
The 15% more pistol damage on assault perk tree and 10% headshot dmg bonus from pistol perk tree is super important for this class. Makes assault a little more flexible
Haven't bought the game yet ( a bit tight on the budget rn) but always wanted to main assault with Hammer when I finally do. Heard nothing but it being really weak....your video gives me hope those people just don't know the deeper mechanics.
its a SUPER FUN CLASS, is it as sstong as others or as EASY to play? NO but u can complete ANY CONTENT with it, just takes time and u gotta be more carefull and thoughtful compared to otehr classes
@@Crazymrpipz I don't need it to be the "Ultra Meta Sweaty Tryhard Ruthless Solo Clearer while playing on Dance Board" as long as it's viable and doesn't actively set the team back. I just love the Aesthetic of Hammer and Jump pack....Unga Bunga all the way :)
I don't have a good enoguh PC now and I play the game streamed. It occasionally lags which makes parry nigh impossible for me. It is completely reasonable to use the thunder hammer with block type as well. It eliminates the perfect parry window completely but it saves my butt non-stop.
The fact that carnifex got buffed and become more aggressive, using assault is still a struggle especially with slow melee weapons. Tho fighting swarms is better by a bit now.
I’m going to save everyone the best way to play assault is just use the chains word and the regular bolt pistol, I hate to say it but you need quick melee and combined with the stomp it just works, also with the 15% increase to the bolt pistol there’s no need to use the heavy bolt because the regular bolt has more ammo and does enough damage to kill the minoris enemies.
a lot fo the times reguler combosa re not enough and heavy bolt has another damage buff on the tree which works really well with the signiture skill, ammo on it is also very good if built correctly, that said normal bolt is also nice
How do u do double aftershock ?? its seems u have to press attack button in the end of first shock? of what? I`ve tried multiple ways, but still got only 1 hit, and yes I got that perk on the hammer for doing doulbe strike
How you make the second slam with the hammer on the charged attack ? I have the +1 aptitude but i cannot succès ! Is this another aptitude who make this ?
u mean slam? u have a perk that adds another slam, a u finish one slam let go and hold again on the button to do the second hit, if u mean aftershock that is also a perk u have to activate
It's funny that you show that "animation cancelling" technique and then when you're facing an actually challenging number of enemies you barely even swing the hammer in favor of parries and even when you try to force it you just take damage because you should have dodged/parried instead. That's not what I call good melee combat. Hammer (and other melee weapons) needs more reasons to actually use it vs just baiting out parries.
If you're facing a large enough group is when you want to use your jump pack. Especially with the cool down reduction at 23 you're getting boost back after every ground pound
so? ofcourse I will parry if I have to parry :D the point is this mechanic makes combat better and more fun, I never said this is THE ONLY THING u should use and turn off ur brain and never parry:) I actually explain that mid combos if its not working just PARRY:) and ya people keep saying melee combat SHOUDLNT be this or that, the reality is IT IS THIS right now,will it change? who knows, but whatever it is now im trying to make the best of fit
@@Crazymrpipz It was less of a criticism towards you and more towards the state of melee combat right now. I don't find it satisfying that the optimal way to play is to barely ever swing your hammer at all.
not sure what video you watched, but the point of “swung the hammer in favor of parries/dodge” makes it sound like you just don’t understand how melee combat works in general. countering is a key mechanic and it’s not unique to this game. there is always a tempo to combat, and you have time to attack and time to react. good combat is not you button mashing the whole time, it is you understanding the flow and knowing how to deal with the enemies and their capabilities. that said, with the new armor changes you can build assault out to face-tank if you want to with the stagger immunity perks, armor on full aftershock charge. you’ll still need to interface with game mechanics like gunstrikes and parries, of course, but you’ll be able to trade into enemy attacks as long as your positioning is not completely off.
@@atlasstoned You feel free to face-tank with your assault, I'll be here trying to actually complete missions on ruthless without relying on my teammates resurrecting me every 3 minutes.
@@Crazymrpipz awesome. Thank you for the effort sir. I can tell at least one perk with the double smash from the weapon tree. I like taking the 100% damage for decreased smash radius, treat it as a dueling weapon since light attacks basically clear minor is easily.
Thanks for the reply! Are you talking about the second slam, or the initial slam damage? I'm wondering if the initial slap damage gets higher after the second charge sound indicator. Play on Xbox so I can't do any good damage testing
I have this issue where in mid-air I'm charging my dive. But the target gets stuck on a nearby little guy and will not move. Big waste of my Ground Pound.
How do you do two aftershocks in a row? Not groundpounds, but aftershocks (stationary heavies)? I know there's a weapon perk for two ground slams but it's kinda bugged (wont work if you open combo with hammer thrust from dash/sprint and you need to actually press second heavy attack after first ends, while the skill says "continue to hold the button"). Is there a perk for aftershocks as well? Where to find it?
@@blargbot I found it. Can't recall exact name by now, but it's the one that says it's "add an additional spin". That spin is a second aftershock apparently :/ Man, perk descriptions in this game... 🙈
@MalfetOnline Awesome, thank you! I was thinking that might be it, I can see it, but I can't find a good description of it anywhere. I'm super slow at leveling and figured I would get to it eventually!
I cant for the life of me get the second ground slam from the hammer perk seismic chain ive looked it up, tried everything i could, sat in the training area trying to get it and it honestly it's putting a damper on the weapon for me. I think i got it accidentally in an op once 😮💨
Perk you get near the end, I think level 23? Every enemy you hit with the ground pound from the air gives you 10% charge back, so hit 10 and it's one full jump. Repeat as needed.
I’m on Xbox and I cannot get seismic chain to work. I’ve read other users have the same issue. I feel like I’ve tried the different combos but I can’t get it to work.
@@Crazymrpipz its a exaggeration obv, well you get infinite armor parrying minoris now tho lul so not that much of a exaggeration. Wtf they did to ruthless bruh
They have? If I understand this, the fencing weapons are still superior because they allow the cancel and give you the opportunity to parry enemy attacks. I want block weapons to have something going for them but I can't see it at all.
When are they gonna buff bolters they absolutely piss poor damage at all levels. Why does it take a mag and a half to drop one bug and not an elite eight.
I'm a sprint/dash expert (not exactly) Once you learn the timing of dashing attack the Winged Fury Perk is beast make sure to use the "block" Hammer since it has more damage than balance and fencing.
Game is unplayable now to me with this ultrawide "fix" especially using Assault now i cant see anything close to me since the marine takes up 1/3 of my screen now. :(
What fixes it for me is to crtl+enter to leave fullscreen and crtl+enter again to re-enter fullscreen. But I'll warn you that it happends a lot and I have to fix it all the time at random intervals mid game.
2:28 just look at how amazing the physics and visuals of the water are as the hammer hits it... Looks so smooth and life like. Above everything the design and graphics of this game blow me away every time..
Concord is much better lol

This. Parrying is no problem, however I always get caught out, unable to dodge mid animation. Parry-dodge seems to be the answer!
so kinda like monster hunter great sword using shoulder bash to skip the 2nd attack in the combo to get to the big final hit

how do I do this second ground pound? Is this a perk?
yup its a perk
@@Crazymrpipz what column is it in or whats the name lmk pls
ahhh thats how you do it ...
I swear they changed the way aftershock works, I can't do it anymore
stop using assault wrong: proceeds to talk for 9 minutes about 1 animation cancel and 1 minute about parrying.
next time Ill only talk about TheBlazingAngel01 in the video! i promise!
How do you recharge your ability so fast?
Perk you get near the end, I think level 23? Every enemy you hit with the ground pound from the air gives you 10% charge back, so hit 10 and it's one full jump. Repeat as needed.
Direction is locked during aftershock, why is yours not? Locking on?
u cna change direction if u turn camera at the right time if that what ur askin
Not sure, will give it a try thanks
I’m on Xbox and I cannot get seismic chain to work. I’ve read other users have the same issue. I feel like I’ve tried the different combos but I can’t get it to work.
Talking about the double slam aftershock
Any tips?
Nah Xbox here and it’s broken
Heretic! My faith in the Emperor is my armor!
Can you not animations cancel with dodge?
dodge changes ur position completly and doesnt offer counter play or speed right into the next attack
Animation cancel to be playable as a class is the definition of unfun. Animation cancel is a bug.
its 100% not a bug :D its a mechanic it literally lets u parry at any point
Pipz I need a 3rd charge please and thanks 😅😊
ON IT! :D
I still dont get how i can do the second aftershock slam... xD
Anyone know how to do the followup on aftershock? Im on xbox and i cant figure it out
its a perk u need to unlock
You can complete ruthless mashing one button now anyways, they made the game dumb easyy
can u please stream and ill strem ur stream and show me mashing 1 button and complete rutheless... no joke
@@Crazymrpipz its a exaggeration obv, well you get infinite armor parrying minoris now tho lul so not that much of a exaggeration. Wtf they did to ruthless bruh
Can someone explain me how he does the second charge with aftershock?
Thunder hammer perk tree. Need relic hammer unlocked.
@@cikembra2389 thank you bro I got it
So what you're saying is that Block weapons have a place in the melee meta
They have? If I understand this, the fencing weapons are still superior because they allow the cancel and give you the opportunity to parry enemy attacks.
I want block weapons to have something going for them but I can't see it at all.
ya fencing is just too good inmy opinion
When are they gonna buff bolters they absolutely piss poor damage at all levels. Why does it take a mag and a half to drop one bug and not an elite eight.
I dont know what bolter u using but my stalker drops elites in 6 shots :D
@@Crazymrpipz bullshit
I'm a sprint/dash expert (not exactly) Once you learn the timing of dashing attack the Winged Fury Perk is beast make sure to use the "block" Hammer since it has more damage than balance and fencing.

How the heck are y’all able to login? I’m stuck with AVF error since the patch 😂

@@Crazymrpipz 😂🤣
2 mins vid lengthened to 10+ mins, just show say use parry to animation cancel 🤦♀
SO TELL US WHAT IS THE WRONG WAY YOUR FACE IS WRONG
Game is unplayable now to me with this ultrawide "fix" especially using Assault now i cant see anything close to me since the marine takes up 1/3 of my screen now. :(
sorry to hear that :(
Turn off dynamic dlss. Set it to quality, native, or anything but dynamic. Will fix the squashing.
@@MatthewJOsbourne thay only works for 21:9, I am 32:9 I have tried that fix with no success. :(
@kordova2182 try windowed at the 21/9 rez with resizing it to recreate the side black bars... at least itll bebplayable till thebultrawide is fixed
What fixes it for me is to crtl+enter to leave fullscreen and crtl+enter again to re-enter fullscreen. But I'll warn you that it happends a lot and I have to fix it all the time at random intervals mid game.
