Complete the Secrets of the Cult mission in warhammer 40k rogue trader. Learn how to get codes, defeat the Screamer of Tzeentch, and debrief Heinrix.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Proceed through the level on Kiava Gamma, fighting Tech-Priests and Heretechs.
  2. 2
    Cross the gap to a circular platform. The south-facing part has a door requiring a code.
  3. 3
    Interact with the platform’s control to spin the bridge, creating a path to the right side of the map.
  4. 4
    Head south to the southern tip and find a ladder. Use Athletic checks to climb it to an elevated position above the room with the code.
  5. 5
    Turn left from the elevated position and find a pathway leading to a walkable pipe that goes down towards your first fight location.
  6. 6
    Locate a Tech-Priest sitting on the floor near the stairs. Speak to this Hexmechanic and use dialogue checks to obtain information from its data-slate, which contains the door codes.
  7. 7
    Explore the rest of the roof, use the elevator to descend to the platform, and return to the rotating bridge.
  8. 8
    Enter the door. Interact with the mutant cage and the Congitator terminal to learn about the heretic activities.
  9. 9
    Prepare for the boss fight. Spread your party out in groups of three with clear lines of sight for AoE troops to reset attacks and nuke mobs without friendly fire.
  10. 10
    The boss is a Screamer of Tzeentch, a large enemy that uses attacks of opportunity and moderate melee damage. It also summons Pink Horrors and a staff-wielding enemy that uses chain lightning.
  11. 11
    Have your tanks engage the Horrors while your DPS and Operators focus on the Screamer of Tzeentch.
  12. 12
    Use your Operator's Analyze Weakness and Exploit Weakness abilities to reduce the boss's dodge chance, especially on hard mode where dodge is high.
  13. 13
    Apply Cassia’s Frontline damage buffs, an Assassin’s dodge reduction, and use an Officer's ultimate or skill to grant extra turns for your primary DPS.
  14. 14
    Use your Leader’s Heroic Act to give your primary DPS an extra turn while Expose Weakness penalties are active.
  15. 15
    Avoid stacking your party, as Pink Horrors have AoE spells that can deal around 15 damage per target. Control the number of enemies hit by these spells.
  16. 16
    After defeating all enemies, Heinrix will be satisfied.
  17. 17
    Leave Kiava Gamma after dealing with the metal crab man.
  18. 18
    Decide the fate of the planet.
  19. 19
    Speak to Heinrix for a debriefing report on the heretics to conclude his story for the chapter.
Tips
  • The Hexmechanic on the roof is the source of the door codes.
  • The Screamer of Tzeentch is a wound sponge; focus on reducing its dodge chance and maximizing your damage windows.
  • Coordinate your party's abilities to maximize damage output and control the battlefield against the summoned adds.
  • Ensure your primary DPS has extra turns during debuff windows on the boss.
