A new update for Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader makes the Adept shoot sharply, and fixes a number of other issues. Take a look!

The Rogue Trader beta is spinning along pretty well. As players delve into the furthest corners of the available story, developers at Owlcat are improving the game at every turn. A new patch, Update 0.2.1ao brings some much needed love to the poor Adept, whose sharpshooting, you might have noticed, wasn’t as sharp as it could be.

A number of other doctrines and abilities have been either fixed or improved, and alongside that, a batch of other minor fixes is in place as well. So now the game should be even smoother. Get in there and mix it up!

Rogue Trader – Update 0.2.1ao

Here’s a look at the big changes, most of which affect abilities that either weren’t working at all, or were working improperly.

Doctrines and abilities:
    • Vanguard’s Formidable Distraction talent now correctly reduces dodge;
    • Toughness resistance check for Psyker’s Assail didn’t have any base difficulty – fixed;
    • Adept’s Sharpshooter talent didn’t work – fixed;
    • Adept’s Clue debuff icon wasn’t appearing on the targets – fixed;
    • Adept’s Dismantling Attack Heroic Act would always prioritize melee weapon if the character had both melee and ranged weapons equipped – fixed, there are now separate buttons for using melee and ranged versions of this Heroic act;
    • Adept’s Desperate Measure had the same name and icon as Adept’s Heroic act – fixed;
    • Assassin’s Aim for the Opening could provide an incorrectly cumulative damage bonus if applied multiple times from different directions and then used from any of those directions – fixed;
    • Assassin’s Killing Edge damage bonus from lethality didn’t work – fixed;
    • Hunter’s Piercing Shot was indefinitely stacking “Pierce and Ruin” debuff on the target after each attack – fixed;
    • Marksman’s Fortress talent didn’t work – fixed;
    • Fighter’s Combat Master was being calculated incorrectly – fixed;
    • Commissar’s Let’s Give them Hell ability didn’t provide an extra turn to the ally after killing the marked target – fixed;
    • Psy-rating 4 had incorrect requirement for Psy-rating 2 instead of 3 – fixed;

Good luck out there, Rogue Traders. And maybe try being Heretical for once!
