Another compilation of 40K Fates and 'Jobs', we're starting to reach a limit tho on documented nightmare roles for humans within the Imperium - sp looking forward to Episode 4 - we may have to delve into the speculative - which may be no bad thing as it allows us to go forward and back in history, and off into tangents that have not been covered. So I look forward to that when we get there. AS USUAL enjoyed? Drop a like, consider the old subscribe ! thanks all !

I think a "Top 5 or 10 mysteries of the 40K Universe" would be an excellent video topic. Or even break it down by faction.

i still think the best job is "random farmer on a random feudal world who will probably die of illness at 30 without ever being aware of the greater horror"

Chaos: No one can match the cruelty of our chaos dreadnaughts, we 've invented the most torturous existence imaginable! Penitent Engine:

One of the funny lines I've heard in Darktide is that the Preachers will sometimes yell "Blood for the Emperor, skulls for the Golden Throne"

You should do a worst astartes initiations series. Some chapters have pretty messed up requirements to become a Space Marine.

I think servitor maintenance would be a pretty grim job. Every day, you're up close and personal with one of the most common horrors of the Imperium, staring into the eyes of human beings that have been reduced to unthinking, unquestioning machines. There's also the possibility that at any time, one of the sullen, expressionless faces carted into your shop could be one you recognize. Sure, it might not be the most dangerous or strenuous job, but I can't imagine dealing with something like that on a daily basis wouldn't have an effect on most people

Almost 1,5h of horror narrated by one of the best in Adeptus Youtubus there is. Thanks!

1000x yes to more history bits. History is fascinating, and many connections and comparisons between it and the lore can be drawn. And at least to me, it's just fun as well.

LT, these videos are amazing. *Thank you* for doing all the leg work so us plebs can enjoy this amazing and deep verse. Truly the greatest iterator of our age.

The ship breaker aspect feels like a good idea for a 40k game

Maybe a census clerk? Like the guy who goes door to door trying to figure out what the population numbers are like, and how many of what class/occupation there are. I feel like that would be a maddening, never ending task. Probably extremely confusing too: "Here is your ink, quill, dataslate, and munitorum issue sidearm" "...Why do I need the autopistol?" "You're going to the underhive"

A pretty bad job i can think of is the people who clean the streets after a huge chaos/xeno invasion, where they have to pick up the corpses and bodyparts of dead guardsmen and traitors/xenos alike and sometimes they are still alive, idk i saw it in the Calgar comic and i feel really bad for those people Sorry if this was mentioned before but just putting out ideas

I'm pretty new to 40k and these videos really help me understand this vast and complex Imperium. Thank you!

You know it's going to be a good day when another Luetin video drops.

Haemonculi wallpaper gotta be up there as one of the jobs ever

It never fails to amuse or amaze that within the imperium, which regularly deals with lovecraftian horrors of the warp, unrelenting tyranids and orks, and the sheer hell of being a drukhari slave, the concept of “worst existence” doesn’t fall to a guardsman having to fight a genestealer cult, or a space marine having to endure decades or centuries of constant battle, but it falls to simply being a regular person having to interact with other regular people.

The morgue at the golden throne, processing a never ending stream of dead psykers sacrificed to the emperor.

This is how I know Luetin09 is such a lore digger. Don't get me wrong; I am purging the heretics and xenos all day long for the emperor. But when you are on the THIRD video of "shitty jobs" - The shine on the emperors armor starts to fade a bit.

Luetin09 I must thank you, i've been listening to your videos every day right before I go to sleep for about 4 years now. Your an absolute Chad!

The first two videos in this series where what got me into 40k. Over a year later, I get to enjoy the 3rd installment and for that, I am grateful Loremaster

I only just discovered this channel and the 40k lore/universe and man it’s an dark yet amazing world Edit: in the grim dark future of 40K lore it’s nice that veterans welcome this noob to all of it. Glory to the Imperium of Man. Also, why are the miniatures stupid, expensive unreal. Unreal

Just finished Vorbis Conspiracy last night. It was terrific. Several wonderful writers like Guy Haley, Chris Wraight and new talent that were genuinely good to great. The overlapping stories and slow reveal did give you a great sense of place. Very immersive. Can recommend.

I really like the concept from the first segment of having a huge space station complex thing hobbled together from broken and abandoned ships.

i love how luetin turns clickbait list videos into lore deep dive archives

The girl’s recording of survival of a Tyranid invasion was great touch!

At the other end of this, I wouldn't mind learning a bit more about the upper class in hive cities mentioned around 1:04:05

It might be interesting to do an "odd jobs" series. I'm sure there's some weird jobs in this universe that aren't the best/worst.

In all honesty, I think being the 40k equivalent of a repair technician would be an absolutely harrowing experience. Imagine reporting to a Mechanicus adept, who refers to you as at best a number and looks like something between a pale, gaunt man and some kind of cyber zombie, and being told it’s your job to swap out the blades on a meat packing plants saws, or to replace the pilot lights on a ship’s sub-warp engines or, worst of all, perform maintenance on a whole slew of servators. Now imagine crawling through whatever rusted gantries and ducts connect wherever you are to where you need to be, along with whatever poor souls share your unfortunate task, a good chance any one wrong step sends you plummeting down from such a height that the bottom can’t be seen from where you are. Then you finally get to you task, the machines still running (because it would be inefficient to to them off) and you just have to move past those running meat saw blades, one wrong step meaning you be part of tomorrow’s lunch. Or rappelling down past idling engines to swap the broken pilot light, the heat making you drip with sweat, knowing if you drop even a single tool you’ll be killed for incompetence or disrespecting the machine god. And the worst task of all, the servators. To begin, the smell, imagine the pure rancid stench that is sweat, machine grease, urine feces, and most probably blood. Then you walk up and see twisted flesh and metal mockeries of human beings staring back at you with blank empty eyes, perhaps you even recognise them. As you open them up, what was once the contained smell of human waste is put on full display, as you scrape and scrub away any leakages, likely covering yourself in its muck. Perhaps worse of all is the potential that the servator’s mind wipe was faulty and as you poke and prod it’s insides it flinches and perhaps even weeps from its eyes, all the while you feel the pressing guilt of what you’re doing, knowing you’ll probably have to do it again. You’ll likely die during any of your jobs, and even the less lethal ones will make you wish you were dead. Pure hell.

In the novels Pariah and Penitent, both by Dan Abent we are show two horrible jobs. One is the War Bind, a cybernetic veteran of a old war which seem to be very long live and lives has bandits. The second was the Cursed. A underclass that ran a fowl of the authorities who must make a living of take on the sin of others. They tattoo themselves with a description of the sin and do anything within their power to make amends for it, be it hire goon or a bodyguard.

Having my brain transplanted into a lamppost with a sole purpose to open a door for bypassers 24/7 for the next 10 000 years would rate pretty high up there.

I want to say that I enjoy you sharing your history knowledge. I knew what guilds were, but I never realized it was to maintain quality standards, ensuring financial stability for the members. It makes sense. I would love you sharing whatever you're passionate about. Great video, as always.

I really want to hear a story about Tyranids trying to take this chop shop system. It would be like the entire system being made of the Macragge orbital defenses.

That last mental image of sisters of silence dragging away screaming and crying children just to torture and murder them gives a whole new perspective to the black ships.

Nobody in the Human processing crew: "It's not much, but it's honest job!"

I would say an Iron Hands aspirant Marine. Your existence will be brief, harsh, filled with self-loathing, and if you fail (which is very likely to happen), you'll be turned into a Servitor. And even if you succeed, you will be even less human than most Astartes, as the Iron Hands firmly believe that _"The Flesh is weak."_

the headless servitor in Darktide when you get the communication from grendyl was quite disturbing.

'It is better that the masses do not know what they eat' -LITERALLY NAMES THE FOOD CORPSE STARCH -

I like that you mentioned the corpse harvesting parties right after they showcased the new models for them, that and ive loved the water guild designs when I first saw them

Id imagine being an imperial guard medic or field surgeon would considerably unpleasant if you think about it. Your the one tasked with stapling back together the bodies of guardsmen who managed to survived bolt rounds.

I woke up with a wicked fever today and felt horrid. Seeing this though made my day a little brighter. Thanks Luetin!

After hearing all the dark jobs in the Imperium, it makes you ask the heretical question….is Chaos right after all? The way the Imperium treat its citizens is horrific and almost seems to deserve all the wars it faces.

British history videos in the same style as the Imperial videos would be 110% fitting. Tell us of the grim darkness of the 1st millennium!

Yes! I'm stoked that my black ship's crew idea made it in this video. Thanks a lot, LT! I look forward to it, as always!

The worst job would be the poor schmuck that has to change the emperors diaper daily.

You talking about chaos marines having a disconnect in their perception of time reminded me exactly why I love chaos marines. The fact that chaos terminators for instance most likely are veterans of the Horus heresy. The idea that a singular soldier has 10,000 years of combat experience under their belt is just such a chilling prospect. And I adore for instance how in red tithe shadraith just teleports throughout the decks of the ship with no care for normalcy, how he views the night lords before him as petulant children entirely naive. I read that book for the carcharadons but fell in love with characters like shadraith.

I'm listening to this while I'm cleaning bathrooms. Sure puts my current task in a different perspective 😆

thank you very much for all your work with 40k youtube movies you make I've been into warhammer fantasy for almost 25 years but you're the one who got me hooked on 40k

Keep up the good work!! Love listening to you're lore videos when I'm staying in hotels all the time for work or when I'm driving all over the UK.

Honestly being an inquisitor would probably be a pretty crappy job for the average person. While yes they get a lot more luxuries than your average imperial citizens, just think of the mental toll such a job would take on someone. It would be like having to make the infamous moral question of who to run over with the train, the 5 innocent people or the 1 convicted criminal. Now imagine multiplying those numbers by 100 or 1 thousand and then having to make those decisions every single month, hell probably more like every week. This isn’t even mentioning the massive mental toll it must take on the inquisitor’s to be dealing with chaos so much. As Stringstorm’s song goes “for every burden there is someone to bear it, behind the greater good the sins we commit.” All too often a physical toll is looked at when referring to the worst jobs but often the mental toll a job might take is overlooked.

An hour of Adeptus Ridiculous followed by an hour of Luetin. 'tis an Emperor-blessed day indeed.

One of my favorite series on this channel. Keep up the excellent work.

I'll be honest. Ship breakers would be like a "side hustle" for a Rogue Trader or a Mechanicus team. Maybe take the best bits for yourself and leave the rest for others. Kinda like a used car salesman, which the owner would shortchange or screw over potential buyers.

Content suggestions: - Perpetuals - all those who seemingly cannot die (Emperor / Vulkan / etc) - Where are all the Primarchs?? Which of the Primarchs are still alive, where are they, and what condition are they in?

One of my favorite series on this channel. Thank you Luetin.

Excellent point about ambiguity. Not everything can be categorized so neatly. We live in a universe of unknowns.

@Leutin09... am surprised you had a decent explanation of the Sister's still being Hyman! I'm truly honored to have had you include my idea! Even more so given your comments seemingly coming from the post on the last! Maddd Respect! FOR THE EMPEROR AND SANGUINIUS! 🛡⚔️🩸🩸🩸⚔️🛡

if you plan to spin around to the Best Jobs in 40k, after reading the Veringatua Crime Books, being a Probetor isn't a bad life, you get grade 4 housing, defect free cybernetics, a modicum of protection from the criminal syndicates, and some side hustles depending on how bent you are, as long as you can put up with the never ending drudgery and crime

Most certainly need a part 4 that was intense and highly entertaining

I love this breakdown. I’m not a Warhammer guy but I love listening to your stuff. I studied church history and this is one of the real problems (opportunities?) in history- especially church history. There are these little fragments of “the commoner” that paint such a fascinating picture.

Luetin Uploads Everything That Imperium Needs/Nurgles

I love this series of yours, remind8ng us what the Imperium is at its lowest and darkest on an individual level. It fleshes out the vision we have of it, and focuses on t8ny details sometimes. As an avid Lorevore of 40k, this is Caviar.

Electrician here- Being an Electrician, Plumber, or any other trade, even in 40k they’ll still need welders. Pretty sure if I was plucked into 40k, I would either die in the first month or be pretty successful making my self useful in fixing their basic tech- assuming I could kind of understand it and it still works on basic principles.

A video talking about the historical references of the 40K universe would be interesting. It'd probably be a lot of Roman/Greek/Persian/etc. history given the Imperium's aesthetic, but the universe draws a lot on historical events, so bringing the two together would have value.

Two for one with the Eversor Temple of the Officio Assassinorum. You have the Eversors themselves, which are basically just augmented, drug-fuelled nightmares like the archoflagellents who are given spikes of pain every second of every hour of every day anytime they're not in cryosleep and have a target to kill in order to instill in them as much blind hatred of their target as possible. They're the least subtle tool the Officio possesses, essentially being berserk killers who will end the lives of pretty much anyone and anything between them and their intended target. Given how mentally unstable they are, the Eversor assassins constantly record the events of their mission so that the record may be recovered when the assassin's task is complete and is put back into cryosleep. You can't exactly get a verbal after-action report from an Eversor, and even if you could, it probably would be along the lines of "I killed the first dude with a wooden toy horse, and then killed his buddy by ramming the first dude's legs up his asshole." Heavy on the grizzly details but lacking in actual information. However, this leads into the theoretical job of being the most likely heavily traumatized Officio adept who must watch the recordings in order to compile the Eversors' after-action reports.

Fantastic video as usual. I'm glad I'm not the only one who is kept up at night by random thoughts of the Grimdark. I'd love to see you do a video on the golden throne itself. We know what it does and its functions. Its origins and original purpose are such an intriguing mystery. Not to mention who might have been supposed to sit on it. A long in-depth video, in your style, gathering together all the hinted lore on it is sorely needed.

I’d love to hear about what you learned in ancient European history (talking about guilds at ~1 hour mark). Inspiration is inspiration and content is content.

Finally, the trilogy is complete.

I’d imagine a mortician would be a pretty crazy job. What with all the crazy and wild ways one can end up going out in this universe. Assuming half the time there’s anything left to be sent to a mortician

You said in the past that you wanted to diversify the vids that you did. I'm all for it, I like the style of your videos, regardless if they're 40k related or not

reposting a request: is there any way we could get a look into the real world history of the lore? those of us who are newer to the universe have only ever known a 40k that has deeply established lore, but dont know how it evolved over time. like when did genestealers stop being their own thing and become part of the tyranids? how much information was there about the horus heresy before the book series started in 2006? who is matt ward and why does everyone hate him? like a history of the editions and codices and stuff?

Ah yes, no matter how cold it is outside. A Video from Luetin about the Horror of 40k always warms my Heart. It might also be the Tea but mostly the Horror.

Just recently I went back watching the first part of this series. Good laughs.

It so ironic how much Ecclesiarchy war machines remind me some horrible machine abomination of chaos.

Including the real world historical inspiration for the topics you cover would be an awesome addition.

Being a human working in a dark eldar coven laboratory. That may be on the list. All pain, all gain, for their twisted coven masters of course.

21:30 speaking of gellarfields I leaned well enough from the all guardsmen party is NEVER , NEVER, EVER get refurbished gellalfield generators especially from nubby

Lutien, Ive had an idea for a job that might be terrifying. Gellar field technician. I dont know what kind of warp stuff happens around the field generator, but it might be a hot spot for demons and other entities. Its also high stress, when at any moment, the field could drop, and demons could rush in. I am unaware of long term effects due to being around the generator, so I was thinking it could be a tech priest with a team of expedanble slaves keeping the field up and running. Those are my thoughts, let me know what you think.

Love your channel and always pumped to see a new video drop!

My Audible membership has been amazing. Over the last two years I've been through almost 50 Warhammer audiobooks during my daily commute. I don't look at it as a boring drive anymore; it's a chance to get more lore.

Saw the released one hour ago on this immediately assumed a year ago and had to do a double take. I've really been watching too much of the archive. Emperor praise you for your work

Oh, I got a candidate for Ep4 (or 5, or wherever you're at in writing ^^) : being the "donor" in the Rite of Duplessence. One of those "honors" of the Imperium I wouldn't wish on my enemies, and one of - if not *the* purest expression of the Mechanicus's obsession with the preservation of knowledge and it being more valuable than anything, life or human decency never even a factor. A horrifying fate embraced as a great honor, for the Omnissiah ! Not quite a job, but still kinda is because it's not like the Mars boys do anything but work ... and I never see anyone speaking of this favorite tidbit of mine, so there. For reference, the Rite of Duplessence is at the very least explained in the Into the Storm book for the Rogue Trader RPG. So hey : sort of a timely thing too. Fun vid as always, I thoroughly enjoy your takes on the verse, numerous digressions and clarity when it comes to speculation. Love your stuff, may it keep on going.

Yay Luetin Video!

Took me bout a month and a half on and off but just caught up on all 114 videos in yer 40k lore round up. Use to see the little figurines at hobby stores not knowing what they were and if it werent for my friend 10 years ago uttering "Blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne" offhandedly it would have never planted the seed of ambitious i had for the this verse. Thanks Mr. Luetin now I gotta lot of reading to do.

Recommendations: companion servitors (the bookkeepers skull) Cogitator computation unit (I am ...) Retinue of an inquisitor (eisenhorn/ravenor/bequin trilogies) Pdf trooper (double eagle) Curst (pariah, penitent) Underhive ganger (status: deadzone) Abhuman (wraithbone phoenix) Twist (eisenhorn: malleus) Pariah (eisenhorn/bequin books)

I like to imagine gelt more like a token than a flat out valued currency. Like a "get whatever you need and are paying for within reason" coin, that is recognized and useable as such across the imperium, and as such, valuable to anyone no matter where they are in the imperium, given ofc they are near barterable resources to begin with

Yay, 77 minutes of grim-dark social horror!

Another great video! I think my favorite description of the Imperium comes from The Twice Dead King: "the sheer grandeur of its inefficiency. It was, at least, worthy of consideration."

I love kickin back and having a few beers while watching this series it's bloody great after a busy day. Cheers Luetin mate great vids!

I think that Nobles might have huge Harems to pick from to fulfill their needs so that may be quite unpleasent.

Any time Luetin uploads, day is saved. Week is worth looking up for and the month is worth living for.

This one hits hard after just playing Hardspace Shipbreaker. Nicely done.

Really great to listen to while working on my ash waste nomads for necromunda

great video as always , would be nice if you make an indepth video about Adepta Sororitas

Every job is vital to the Imperium. To say otherwise is Heresy

Any type of history from you is welcome Leutin.

Blessed be the God Emperor He brings us works of fascination and intrigue

A series on necromunda would be amazing. Thank you for the fantastic videos.

I’ve literally cried thinking about 3 things: 1. The thoughts of someone in a penitence engine. 2. The thoughts of someone captured and tortured by a humunculae. 3. The sheer hatred of lower beings by the Drukhari and aeldari.

It's straight to the corpse starch line with me.
