Any build guides for the newest patch yet?

I was really priding myself over the fact I built most of my companions without the use of a guide and they were pretty darn powerful, especially Cassia and Yrliet (was making up to of 1600 damage per shot with exploits).

My Arch-Militant MC was also making 200-300 damage per melee attack with buffs and now he was lowered to 100-150. All my companions, even Idira, were little tanks in their own way but now are getting one-shoted by some enemies.

I'm not looking forward to respecing all my party, the leveling up system is already tedious because it pops way too often but what can you do? I'd rather reap the advantages and bug-fixes of this patch than be stuck in the past

I think the big issue, at least regarding staying power is that while the player and companions got nerfed (unless you're a pyro psyker), is that it seems enemy encounters remain untouched, so they're still balanced around pre-1.2 stuff supposedly.

Well, operator and assassin are pretty much same.

For soldiers though?
Soldier you lvl as you did before, then get master tactician, linchpin, fervour and inspire.
Reliance, dawn of victory, comfort in conformity, stacking the deck, unwavering motivation depending on weapon joint offensive and/or undisputed advantage.
Fellowship is now your most important stat.

Linchpin every turn, fervour whenever you can, throw in press the advantage before every attack.
By turn 2 youll start getting truly insane numbers.

I'm playing the "Roll back to the previous patch" build. It's super fun.
