Hi, I’d like to show you my favorite Chaosgate standard class builds.

I used those builds at “Normal” Difficulty.

Introduction

Builds for "standard" class in Chaosgate

Hello, I present a build guide (and I play it) for basic classes in Chaos Gate Deamonhunter. Builds can change.

Differences between Chaos gate and X-Com franchise

Builds for "standard" class in Chaosgate-1

Chaosgate Deamonhunter is a similar X-com game, but it differs in some significant ways.

  • This is the universe of Warhammer 40,000 (Which I Love)
  • Each member of your team is like “one man army”
  • A dangerous environment that can kill, for example, a statue that can fall on an opponent’s head and kill him
  • A large variety of weapons, from halberds to demon hammers, and ending with shields for paladins
  • More brutal, full of blood and filled with spectacular finishes
  • Much more difficult than its counterpart with aliens
  • The loot system, after each mission, we get a choice of what to take with us
  • Warp is unstable because “Warp Surge” increases every turn when it increases to 100% something bad happens, for example -1 HP until the end of the mission or the opponent has additional reinforcements
  • Mutations, each enemy you meet on your way can mutate, e.g. tentacles that increase damage to a meele, additional armor in the form of an additional layer of skin
  • Willpower as fuel for enhanced attacks and special attacks such as “Teleport Strike” and “Hammerhand”
  • When you deal critical damage, you can select a specific part of the opponent’s body and damage it, which will, for example, disable a certain skill PERMANENTLY (photo below for preview)

Builds for "standard" class in Chaosgate-2

Greynade [Purgator]

Its devastator class among Greyknights

I really like to make it as a grenadier because it has very good features that support this build.

The most important part of his tree is the top-right corner, as it gives us more grenades and an extra space for them

The second cool feature is collecting seeds from a distance with the Astral Aim, very useful
As for the grenades themselves, I have two philosophies

  • Against regular opponents, I take a regular DMG grenade and a Stun grenade
  • For boss fights, I take a silencing grenade and a stun grenade

Weapons and their differences

  • Psilencer – Long range, no overwatch, disruptive attack, e.g. overwatch
  • Psycanon – Short range, AOE SW attack, overwatch, less ammo

Weapons of your choice, I use Psilencer
As for the armor, I recommend “Keeper of the Flame” to increase the effectiveness of grenades

TankCar [Justicar]

I present to you the tank, the support among your team of Grey Knights

His most important feature is a large amount of armor / life and the ability to give AP / SW for his brothers

I recommend choosing the lower tree very early because it is a great skill called “Honor the Chapter”

As a weapon I recommend “DeamonFlayer” with a bonus to damage against Demons, especially useful in fighting bosses

As for the armor, I recommend “Morningplate” gives us the ability to use skills even if ours ran out of SW (then we use HP)

TPeptor [Interceptor]

He is your best friend and a character who is the main damage dealer with a great teleportation skill
I always take the left and left-top trees, because it increases our mobility and allows us to use the skill “Teleport Strike”

I prefer the chain-execution tactic so I chose a hammer that has the extra “damage” to stun
As for the armor, I recommend armor with an additional slot for additional equipment
I recommend these slots

  • Extra SW, for Power Strike, Teleport, Teleport Strike
  • Extra damage from critical attacks
  • Extra chance for a critical attack

PS. I am currently looking for a better hammer with the same properties as the one I have now

Skullcary [Apothecary]

Simply medic with good immobilization skills and lots of servo skulls
The main skill is what a surprise healing, which is improved by “Narthecium”.
The main weapon of the Apothecary

I focus on the top right corner of his skill tree because servu skulls are his main strength

Servo skulls allow us to heal from a distance, detect enemies, and hit them through armor
Super useful

As for armor, I recommend that it give as much SW as possible. This can be plain or an armor terminator
If you have chosen the way of “Servo Skulls” you can replace “Narthecium” with another weapon, just remember about healing skulls and you’ll be fine

Replacing “Narthecium” with a different weapon will make your Apothecary another valuable team member in terms of damage

Tips & Tricks

  • The experience for our knights is shared, i.e whoever kills has experience
  • I recommend having at least two full Gray Knights squads
  • I recommend having one of the classes in your team, it will make the game easier, especially when you play the game for the first time
  • Invest in grenades for Purgator, especially a Stun Grenade called “Empyrean Brain Mine”
  • Do not be afraid to experiment, but remember that you can lose
  • The wounds in Chaos Gate work so that even if you heal your Knight, he will still get the status “Wounded”
  • So I advise you to play wisely
