Instinctive Behavior

[phishtopher]

So. Is instinctive behavior gone? Synapse no longer cures ib. it is now legacy rule, same as stampede. Ib. Is also classified as an 8th edition rule by wahapedia. So is it still a rule?

[hivefleetkerrigan]

It is not mentioned in the 9e codex, so it's gone.

Instinctive behavior is gone. With the nerfs to synapse (6” range and can be shut off by abilities and actions) it had to go or most tyranids would not be fun to play.

It needed to be gone 4 editions ago.

I like Synapse being only really necessary to prevent attrition on small bugs like termagants and for transmitting buffs and powers. I think that fits much better with how it should have always worked. Though I wish they would not take the potential of synapse into account when assigning points to our smaller bugs. Or if they did not then hooo boy do they overvalue the new fleshborer.
