Hierophant Class - The Basics

[h2]Inquisitors![/h2]

Our robust Action-RPG Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr will receive a new DLC very soon. Arriving on November 12 on the PC, the Hierophant Class introduces a brand new Inquisitor background that will fundamentally alter how players can approach the game.

  • The Hierophant Inquisitor, like the other classes, comes from an Imperial background. Specifically, as a former Ministorum priest who attracted the interest of the Inquisition as a devout Hierophant. He first became an interrogator, and now he serves the Inquisition in its sacred mission.

We always wanted to introduce the Inquisitorial Retinue to the game, and now we finally have a perfect class for doing so. The Hierophant Class DLC was designed to facilitate a new kind of gameplay, one that involves squad management - with up to four acolytes accompanying the player.


The Hierophant himself is equipped with new abilities and gear, and he can use various Blessings in battle. This class is especially a great choice to pair with the recently released Offline Mode update, as members of the Retinue have corresponding backgrounds from previously introduced classes, and they are essentially computer-controlled co-op partners - who must obey your Orders.

  • Even though the Hierophant might usually stay away from the heat of the battle, he is more than capable to protect himself. He carries a weapon in one hand and a relic in the other. Most importantly, members of the Retinue can be equipped with their own gear and can be managed both on the Command Bridge and during missions.
  • As usual, the new class will have three different starting sub-classes, namely the Confessor, the Cardinal and the Drill Abbot.





In our upcoming news posts, we will explore the differences of these subclasses, we will take a quick look at the new abilities and gear, and we will also explain more about the Inquisitorial Retinue. So check back soon, and in the meantime, please wishlist the DLC!

New patch for Inquisitor - v2.9.3 | June 25

Updates to W40K: Inquisitor have been released. The update will be applied automatically when your Steam client (in on-line mode) is restarted.

Patch v2.9.3

[h2]Fixed bugs - Online mode[/h2]
  • Fixed an issue resulting in a crash for all co-op party members other than the host, when interacting with 'Guardsmen' NPCs, or when making a morality choice in campaign missions.
  • Fixed an issue where Passive points and passive trees got mixed up between party members in co-op upon a death of a player.
  • Fixed an issue where certain Heroic Deed-related achievements would unlock unnecessarily upon another player joining the player's co-op party.
  • Claiming cabal rewards will be possible again.

[h2]Fixed bugs - Offline mode[/h2]
  • Fixed an issue where attribute points got lost and/or the attribute point counter went into the negative.
  • Fixed relic enchantments' ability to get rolled off of certain items.
  • Captain Ragna van Wynter's shop will feature weapon items again.
  • Fixed an issue that made it possible to roll enchantments not relevant to the character's class.
  • Fixed a controller issue that made it possible to research Tech-Tree upgrades multiple times, potentially raising 'Tech-power' and bringing 'Fate' into the negative in the process.
  • Hardcore Void Crusades will only allow one life again from now on, instead of allowing multiple lives.
  • When removing a selected Tarot card raising the mission level, its effect will be removed as well, contrary to current behavior, where the raied mission level would stay intact.

[h2]New QoL[/h2]
  • When being disconnected in co-op gameplay, an option to 'reconnect' to the party was introduced.

[h2]Thank you for your helpful reports and patience! [/h2]

  • Fixed an issue leaving the host of a co-op party without loot at the end of co-op missions.

To the last point: your two sets of characters should sync under the Steam Cloud, HOWEVER were they not synced, try copying your character saves from Folder A to Folder B.

Folder B: ...\Documents\NeocoreGames\Warhammer Martyr\steamID\Save

(steamID is a long string of numbers)
