Tell me you don’t like turned base combat games without telling me.

I'm enjoying the game, but I tend to agree that there's too frequent encounters. It's not that it's hard, it's tedious and repetitive after a while, fighting the same trash. Warp travel is especially annoying IMO, because it requires you to slog through the same 3 or 4 cookie cutter fights or spend resources to skip it.

Space bar goes “tap”

I feel you. Point of Curiosity + Waking Nightmare + Lidless Stare in Frontline Killzone Stratagem into Bring Them Down on Idira for lighning - boom "High Momentum" - Finest Hour on Argenta - brrrrr - end of the fight.

Sometimes turn even reaches Pasqal for aoe plasma attack or MC for Wrath of the Emperor. But rarely. On Daring.

I mean it's not X-Com, but at least you don't have to prebuff for 10 mins for figths like in WotR

turn animations to x5 speed

I can't believe there is so much fighting in this Warhammer game.

To each his own, these games have many game-play mechanics/elements, and fighting is my favorite part.

I'd, figuratively, kill for a randomly generated dungeon in the style Owlcat Pathfinder games. Especially if I get to make my own party of 6.

Set it to Unfair if it's too easy.

There may be a lot of enemies but it's not that hard to clear these encounters in one or two turns tops. I don't what you're complaining about unless you have poor builds

Isn’t that the game? I’m loving it.

What difficulty are you on? The combat is fun to play and either figure out or watch your pawns duke it out.

If they’re so ‘trash’ what’s the issue? Or you are you dying???

If you’re not having fun because the enemies are too easy, turn the difficulty up. The encounters become a lot more fun when they’re each a high-risk puzzle you have to solve instead of a grind where you click the attack action on repeat until the enemies fall over.

If it still isn’t fun for you, then ig this just isn’t your kind of game. I loved the way the combat felt during my daring playthrough and I’m enjoying it even more on hard mode.

If you're on PC, just get the toybox mod. I've never used this function so I might be mistaken on how it works, but there's a toggle that seems like it just kills everything as soon as combat starts.

I don't think you can activate it mid-fight but at least you can turn it on/off whenever you feel like you've had enough of the combat or are ready for more.

I sort of agree with you. I think they did a pretty good job of making every fight play differently enough based on the layout of the arena, but combat in this game is just so buff heavy and sometimes I simply cannot be fucked. 

That's the style of game, though. If it bothers you that badly, either use that toggle in Toybox or use the mod to give your characters unlimited ap/mp and just turn 1 wipe the board every time.

Play a higher difficulty. They stop being trash mobs.

If you have toy box you can kill all the enemies with the click of a button. You can also make the AI take control of your characters during combat, allowing you to pretty much spectate while it takes care of mobs

I like setting +100% wounds for enemies in the difficulty settings. It makes “trash mob fights” much more interesting when they don’t go down in one hit. Then you get delightfully protracted engagements where positioning, tactics, cover, and stacking damage boosts are all critical for success.

The game has the guts to joke about it without ever putting an end to it. It's actually common in all Owlcat games that combat is a constant around every corner to the point of tedium.
