Space Marine 2 LIVE: Vanguard Class Returns (Ops + Builds)

A four-hour broadcast focusing on the Vanguard class within Space Marine 2, specifically addressing its functionality upon reaching approximately level 18 and utilizing Operations and Stratagems modes. The content involves retesting various weapons, including the Melta rifle, and examining the effectiveness of the class's parry/block window bonus when comparing fencing versus block-focused strategies. The broadcast format incorporates testing different builds and perk choices during Operations runs, with audience input guiding subsequent weapon or strategy adjustments for loadout testing.

The stream follows a structure of executing an Operations run, modifying one variable (such as weapon setup or defensive style), and immediately running another Operations session, followed by a brief scoreboard review. This approach allows for direct comparison of tactical build variations within the PvE environment of Space Marine 2.
