Walkthrough for the 'Secrets of the Cult' mission in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. Includes steps to find codes, defeat the Screamer of Tzeentch, and complete Heinrix's quest.
Walkthrough
- 1Proceed through the level on Kiava Gamma, fighting Tech-Priests and Heretechs.
- 2Reach a gap with a robot-crab enemy; after it stops hailing abuse, cross the gap to a circular platform.
- 3Locate the south-facing door requiring a code.
- 4Interact with the platform's control to spin the bridge, creating a path to the right side of the map.
- 5Head south along this new path until you find a ladder. Use Athletic checks to climb it, reaching an elevated position above the code-locked room.
- 6Turn left from the elevated position and find a pathway leading to a walkable pipe that descends towards your initial fight location.
- 7Do not go down the stairs; instead, find a Tech-Priest (Hexmechanic) sitting on the floor beside the stairs.
- 8Speak to the Hexmechanic and use dialogue checks to obtain information and the access codes from its data-slate.
- 9Explore the rest of the roof, then use the elevator to descend to the platform.
- 10Return to the rotating bridge and proceed through the now-accessible door.
- 11Inside, interact with the mutant cage and the Congitator terminal.
- 12Prepare for the boss fight: spread your party in groups of three with clear lines of sight for AoE attacks.
- 13The boss is a Screamer of Tzeentch, supported by Pink Horrors and a staff-wielding demon.
- 14Tanks should engage the Horrors, while DPS and Operators focus on the Screamer.
- 15Use Operator skills like Analyze Weakness and Exploit Weakness to reduce the boss's dodge chance, especially on hard mode.
- 16Apply Cassia's damage buffs, an Assassin's dodge reduction, and use Officer abilities for extra turns to maximize damage during kill windows.
- 17Use the Leader's Heroic Act to grant the primary DPS an extra turn while Expose Weakness penalties are active.
- 18Avoid stacking your party to prevent heavy damage from Pink Horror AoE spells.
- 19After defeating all enemies, Heinrix will be satisfied.
- 20Leave Kiava Gamma, deal with the metal crab man if you haven't already, and then speak to Heinrix for a debriefing to conclude his questline for the chapter.
Tips
- Spread your party out to avoid AoE damage from Pink Horrors.
- Focus fire on the Screamer of Tzeentch, using debuffs to reduce its dodge chance.
- Utilize buffs and extra turns to maximize damage output during vulnerable phases.
