im hitting half on pugs so i can only assume a premade will have me over the hurdle first try
limpid zinc
both to half, because pug cohesion is not great
cyan depot
Yeah mood
limpid zinc
am i nuts or has auric kinda gotten easier lately
im guessing either the hype died down a little and only sweatlords are left OR the boss fight has forged us. honed our edge.
tough compass
Maybe everyone got better
limpid zinc
maybe i just got better lol
brave kestrel
I feel like the boss fight has made those who seek higher difficulty stuff better
at least a bit
spice lotus
so is the twins mission generally considered more difficult than standard missions of same threat level?
spice lotus
aka will my character i'm generally running pub games fine in malice have difficulty queueing up in pub lobbies doing that mission
brave kestrel
Hard Mode is utterly brutal
but regular is fine
spice lotus
ah ok

@heavy geyser @native roost and i were running a mission last night where i got got by a netter hiding in a crusher, rezzed, grabbed by a different netter, rezzed, and then grabbed by a mutant and thrown into a THIRD SEPARATE NETTER and i had 0 time to act, it was just chain stun city
that happened to be the same mission where we experienced a dreg shotgunner clown car in realtime, single man walked around the corner and then split into like 8 dudes all blastin
the director is silly sometimes
native roost
That was a cursed game
cyan depot
That’s pretty amazing
native roost
It surprises me how funny darktide can be

how many snipers have you found at meele range
blissful sparrow
more than youd think, and still not enough

It’s really funny every time it happens
Either because you catch them off guard and clown on them
Or because they were hiding behind a doorway and quickscoped you in the butt

marsh gyro
Gun psyker?
spiral badger
alas limbsplitter is never good
because what it doesn't tell you is that 4 seconds doesn't start counting until you stop attacking
and is reset every time you attack
so you only get it once per fight basically
it would actually be pretty decent if it just gave you a power boost on a timer but it doesn't
at least that's how it works on axes. I suppose you should test it on shovel in the psykanium and see if that's also the case, but generally they're not different weapon to weapon like that
marsh gyro
It works the same on shovel
It's better on the foldable shovel because you can fold and bonk it good in 3.5s
spiral badger
yeah on folding shovel it works, but I still favor thrust and brutal momentum because they're more controllable

Gonna be hard to get my crew together often enough to do it during holidays sadly, but we have it in our ambitions
cyan depot
I wanna take another swing at it tomorrow
I've been having trouble choosing between chant and stealth for my zealot for it
spiral badger
i think chant is superior to have on zealot
specifically because it stuns the bosses through their shields if you're close
opaque crown
I think another important thing is that chant doesn't pass aggro to someone who isn't expecting it
cyan depot
i think chant is superior to have on zealot
That's how I'm leaning
Especially because sainted gunslinger has been way better for me than the stuff I get going for stealth
Though the near guaranteed rezzes are nice
limpid zinc
i just keep using charge lol
cyan depot
charge is great
limpid zinc
charge is so good its nuts
stun, free crit, toughness replenishment, and a fast enough CD w/ reduction to have it basically any time
cyan depot
yeah its solid
For the twins I like chant because it buys allies breathing room for rezzes or reloads or whatever and I get pretty good uptime on it
Stealth has good boss damage and lets me shed aggro, though honestly that last part is a very two edged sword
limpid zinc
ive been frustrated before when duo carrying by the other person dumping all aggro on me lmfao
"ill get the rez!" motherfucker get back here....
cyan depot
yeah I had that feeling some as psyker

My Vet, Ruby (a popular name apparently) is a militarum brat who traveled with her parents' regiment, meaning that she had a big extended family. She could recite engagement codes at the same time she could read. Ended up getting wrongfully accused of insubordination by a random commissar.
opaque crown
The one time I'm generally ok getting aggro dunked is as my ogryn
Because I can kinda handle it
I'm uncertain yet if I like the shovel on my full melee ogryn, but the ability to actually kill crushers fast is very persuasive
Just that the big knife is so much faster
marsh gyro
Cleavers are blenders at full attack speed buff yeah
I use the shovels on gun ogryns that use the guns for things the cleavers would do on melee ogryns

Fixed an issue that prevented Zealot Shroudfield combat ability from entering cooldown when sprinting and activating the ability at the same time.
Oh so that’s what that was
dawn totem
What are some solid perks for the Thunder Hammer?
opaque crown
thrust is a bit obvious, I think hammerblow can be good too
marsh gyro
Thrust can be awkward to use when everything's running around in a horde but wowie zowie does it bonk good
opaque crown
Slaughterer can be good for general purpose
goes great into an ironhelm
Headtaker is also good i think, for general purpose
dawn totem
I've got lvl 3 Thrust and Trauma.
marsh gyro
I do like the impact and hit mass blessings myself even though power blessings are probably easier to use
marsh gyro
I've got lvl 3 Thrust and Trauma.
Yeah that'll be good for general use until you get more level 4 blessings
With thrust you can watch the buff tick up to 3 and that's when you release the heavy
dawn totem
Okay. I'm really getting into Zealot and I'm looking at a Thunder Hammer that plays to my style.
opaque crown
do you like bonking individual big things real good
or do you want to bonk things through a crowd
dawn totem
Ooo good question...
opaque crown
Crucis has sweep heavies, saved the charge up to kill important enemies; ironhelm has mixed heavies and lights, and its charge up is weaker but swings through chaff before impacting on heavier enemies
I would say the ironhelm is, imo, a better general purpose pick if you like charging up the hammer
crucis is the king of single taget, single hit nuking
and its sweeping heavies mean its no slouch against crowds either
you just wont but using powered up attacks
dawn totem
crucis is the king of single taget, single hit nuking
I've noticed how Crucis just obliterates Chaos Spawn.
marsh gyro
I'd say Ironhelm wants Thrust blessing more than Crucis
dawn totem
I'll stick with my Crucius but I'll be looking for one that builds up and damaging over impact and charging.
opaque crown
definitely worth giving them both a fair go and seeing what you like imo
they're both good

Down for anything tbh
brave kestrel
gotta get a group together for some hardmode runs at some point
still chasing that achievement
pallid tinsel
any of the new kit they added worth crafting?
brave kestrel
revolver is good, ogryn shovel is good, eviscerator and chainaxe are good
heard mixed things about the new chainsword and the vet shovels
marsh gyro
The Vet shovels rule
limpid zinc
Both chainswords have slightly weird movesets in terms of mixing vanguard/strike downs in both chains
But both also do enough damage that it's not a big hurdle
Like both will do plenty of work even with click spam and both have the same answer to anything big and nasty which is rev, heavy
Both even do basically the same amount of damage for rev heavies lol
limpid zinc
attack chains and first hit bonuses
the new one would be better for single target damage, the old one would have better horde clear
one of the major differences between marks on melee weapons is whether the vanguard, horde clear strikes come on the light or heavy chain, though both chainswords are among the niche of weapons that mix it up on either chain
if a weapon has its horde clear on lights, it usually has single target strikes on heavies, and will do more single target damage per time
if it has its horde clear on heavies, then you can charge the heavies up to get more cleave, and more cleave means more horde clearing
the old chainsword, if u notice, has a straightforward horde clear pattern by chaining heavies
so you can fairly mindlessly rip hordes apart while still getting appreciable single target
the zelly's eviscerators are kind of the opposite; the new eviscerator has horizontals on light and verticals on heavies, so you lightspam at the horde and heavyspam at the crusher
the old one has mixups, but generally puts its vanguard/horizontal/horde clearing attacks on heavies
subsequently a well charged heavy on the old evi will mulch infinity poxwalkers while the lightspamming new eviscerator cleaves a half dozen or so before getting "stuck"

jovial shuttle
As someone who really wanna get into the game
Is it stressful on the hardware? Cause i remember playing the beta and getting severe fps drops in some areas
Mind you i got a gtx1060, so lower quality graphic is expected
white portal
It has smoothed put a bit on the requirements, it was pretty bad early on, but I'm not sure how that hardware would hold up
jovial shuttle
Mh, it's understandable considering the fossil i have as gpu, maybe the sdd can smooth it down a bit

played with 2 other psykers in rando, we ended up all being shreik/purgatus/headpop builds

instrumental to our success was picking different head pop targets

oh nah, their goggles actually work
limpid zinc
i dont think lights out affects them either tbh
jovial shuttle
1060 beats the minimum reqs so
oh really? thank you for the heads up
didn't know
distant surge
in that case the maelstrom should be called "bring your ogryn to work day"
if you get a spotter vet too i feel like you won't have a lot of issues
opaque crown
spotter is so nice on lites out
limpid zinc
even as a nonvet i just rhythmically ping into the darkness for lights out & vent purge
dont rly know why it generated so much salt to get removed from the standard roto
limpid zinc
oh really? thank you for the heads up
didn't know
minimum is a 970 which the 1060 beats in most specs
cyan depot
I know someone who played with a 1060 and it was fine
Lower graphics ofc but the game is pretty on low spec anyway
limpid zinc
i play with a 1660 and it isnt my bottleneck at least
the only thing i dont love about low graphics is how chunky the models gets when the game downgrades them for hordes lol
cyan depot
Yeah the lod number is really one to avoid turning down if possible
jovial shuttle
mh, maybe dynamic resolution is an option
jovial shuttle
that aside if most of it is covered it will be just the usual shadow and such off
jovial shuttle
telenova tier
not familiar with the term
distant surge
make it look like half life 1
limpid zinc
not familiar with the term
spanish language sitcoms, they have a reputation for being very motionsmoothed compared to most kinds of TV/streaming
the cinematic standard is 24fps so the high frames and smooth motions associated with telenovae look strange to most english language viewers
jovial shuttle
ah all clear, well
considering how dark it is even lowering the shadow quality will surely be helpful
opaque crown
i still think lights out is the true darktide experience
ogryn just needs a flashlight
that and i think there needs to be different light types
like the regular flickery flashlight
maybe a lower intensity, aoe, lantern
tough compass
Just give everyone head lamps
cyan depot
Everyone does have headlamps they just use candles or some shit
Cause they’re very dim
tough compass
I don't think choosing a weapon based on lighting is terribly interesting (and you can't do it if you get quick played into one)
cyan depot
There are actually different flashlights which work differently but most of them can only be gotten with the weapon customization mod
tough compass
Everyone does have headlamps they just use candles or some shit
lol, true
cyan depot
I don’t think you need a weapon with a flashlight for lights out
tough compass
It's true
cyan depot
Though shorter ranged less precise ones are better
tough compass
maybe they should just remove flashlights altogether
limpid zinc
Everyone does have headlamps they just use candles or some shit
zealot skins with shoulder candles: the lights out meta????
cyan depot
Aiui those do actually provide a tiny bit of light
But it only really helps you see faces at knife range because of how Darktide renders mobile lights
opaque crown
while i agree choosing from a restricted weapon set isn't necessarily super interesting, i think the darkness condition and the atmosphere it creates are. Which is kinda why i think many weapons shuold just get various light sources taped to them in lights out, and not all of them being made equal
i do also think, as im a glutton for punishment, that flashlights should occassionally flicker and die on their own, making you turn them back on
tough compass
I would support light flickering/turning off in limited circumstances, like if there was a demonic entity whose materialization was announced by that
opaque crown
i just like it as a "these things are salvaged, faulty things" with the downside just being as light as toggling it back on meaning to me, it happening kind of randomly would be fine
we're not the blood ravens out here, with master crafted weapons stolen gifted from the generous armories of other chapters and even the custodes
we're rejects, salvaging effective weaponry from trash heaps
maybe ill see if my group wants to go looking for some lights out missions
oh also, flamers and psyker flames look spectacular in the dark
jovial shuttle
one tad bit of lore i remember from the guards, is that when you get into the guard they give you a flak armour, a "standard issue torchlight" which is the Lasgun, and the guard manual, to probably warm yourself up with, cause nobody reads the manual
tough compass
I know it's a common trope. But I find it a bit silly how shitty video game flashlights are
jovial shuttle
the lasgun is genuinly considered the worst weapon lore wise, getting called a torchlight instead of a real gun
so that's technically a source of light
tough compass
And having a functional plasma gun or power sword but a dysfunctional flashlight is hard for my suspension of disbelief
tough compass
the lasgun is genuinly considered the worst weapon lore wise, getting called a t...
Are they pretty good lore wise?
Just really shitty on tabletop and hence the flashlight jokes?
(plus a lot of shooting at super tough xenos or heavily armored traitors)
jovial shuttle
no they are legit dogwater, as a gun alone
but you usally get in front of tens of thousands so it doesn't really matter
the tabletop version is coherent to the lore version
cyan depot
Lore-wise they’re pretty strong
jovial shuttle
as Lord Castellan Creed said
"whoever thinks a lasgun is useless has never been in front of 10 thousands of them"
cyan depot
But thanks to them being S3 ap- nonsense on the tabletop the jokes continue
marsh gyro
40k power levels are as consistent as Axe Cop
spiral badger
well the issue is that tehy're strong in the sense that they're very effective against other people in flak armor with similar guns
cyan depot
But lore wise it’s basically a full to high power rifle with a deep as hell magazine which you pretty much cannot mistreat enough to get it to fail to cycle
spiral badger
the problem is that tehy're constantly being compared to the weapons of demigods in power armor
jovial shuttle
But lore wise it’s basically a full to high power rifle with a deep as hell maga...
and can eject as grenade
cyan depot
And you can recharge the ammo packs with outlets and campfires

but that's the joke, since power level is so insane in 40k, that is considered the worst

The campfire one is particularly ridiculous
limpid zinc
of course they suck
cyan depot
The campfire one is particularly ridiculous
It’s not good for them and don’t tell your local tech priest but it works
spiral badger
if you handed a modern logistics dept a lasgun they would shit themselves in joy
jovial shuttle
but that's because bolter weapons are so insane, most normal humans cannot operate them
tough compass
Yeah, I'm just thinking energy density wise
cyan depot
but that's the joke, since power level is so insane in 40k, that is considered t...
I’m talking about in-setting views of them
cyan depot
Yeah, I'm just thinking energy density wise
Yeah best not to think about that haha
tough compass
Though maybe in 40k, campfires are enormous plasma bonfires
cyan depot
I’m pretty sure a lasgun pack has WAY more - yeah
jovial shuttle
also, you get guards
and you get Tempestus Scions
which sure use a lasgun, a hypercharged version of it
but still a lasgun
i love how in Assasinorum Kingmaker, a book with various temples assassins in it
the Vindicare (Sniper temple) is disgusted by lasguns, since they do not have bullets in em

you can even throw the battery into a fire to recharge them if needed

This game really needs a pyrrhic victory screen
cyan depot
I’m actually so stoked I managed to clear hard mode with psyker
Even if I was dead at about the same time Rodin went down
I had thought psyker was kind of just a “don’t bring this” kind of class for it but I think I managed to credibly help with horde clear
Though my boss damage was very low
4.5k lmao
spiral badger
i've found that psyker has one of two roles
either complete focus on crowd control and keeping the floor clear
or complete focus on boss damage with max glass cannon gunpsyker
cyan depot
I went for the former yeah
spiral badger
if you try to split the difference you just wind up not contributing enough to anything
cyan depot
Obscurus sword, voidstrike staff, assail, dome
wraith grove
Good crowd control is super important for the twins fights
The gas sections are so much harder without something like smite, assail or idol
cyan depot
Yeah being able to bang off 3-4 darts and follow them down a trail of corpses was great for crossing
Which given psyker's horrid sprint damage modifier was the scariest part for me
wraith grove
Wait sprint damage?

Ohhhh
cyan depot
Ogy and Zealot don't
cyan depot
Same! I didn't for a really long time but it explained several random deaths haha
wraith grove
Especially with how many ragers spawn in that section
Also what was everyone else running?
cyan depot
Overall we had a charge knife zealot who basically played midfield doing a fair amount of everything
Plasma vet to kill the elites which stream in and kinda... anything else
Myself
Gungryn with some kind of heavy stubber and a big shovel for boss damage
wraith grove
Nice
cyan depot
Oh and we had the "ammo boxes give grenades" talent and ogryn bomb
distant surge
ogrynheimer
cyan depot
So we got like 3 nukes off
distant surge
as our friend likes to say
drowsy vine
Vet does as well but its less iirc
Vet actually takes a huge amount more, it's the most by a long shot
like +50% or something
cyan depot
I see
limpid zinc
as the charge knife zealot I was doing like
Shield damage, sprinting over mines, and lobbing grenades at people who went down
A little bit of add clear but a whole lot of sprinting
And a lot of swapping between twins to get their shields to pop in unison
The new knife is very good for this, I found it more helpful than the chain weapons overall
limpid zinc
Normal chainsword would be good too
I found with the evi that sprinting over the mines was a lot dicier, versus with the knife I could trigger them for free
heavy geyser
Chain rev attacks shred gun boy's shield
limpid zinc
Actually chainsword and evi have pretty similar sprint bonuses I think so idk
On evi if you hesitate or get caught up the mines are liable to go up in yr face whereas the knife can queue up a heavy or just turn around and sprint the other direction if adds threatened to stick you
The kind of mid evi dodges versus the knife sliding like three miles helps too
cyan depot
It's definintely dicey with the chainsword
limpid zinc
The knife also empties his shield fast anyway so
Punch-light spam at the shield or at either twins head does tons of work
hushed glade
I really do think that generalization is REALLY bad for hard mode
I think for that you really just want to specialize really hard
limpid zinc
I barely touched my revolver
Tbh an auto gun of any variety might have been a stronger pick
cyan depot
I enjoyed using a braced autogun
spiral badger
yeah autogun is the waay to go
though when i did it I also completely failed to ever touch my gun
too much stabbing to do
limpid zinc
i popped off a few shots but there really wasnt the space to reload
wraith grove
I really do think that generalization is REALLY bad for hard mode
I mean that runs the risk of losing someone important and just being fucked for the rest of the fight
limpid zinc
nah
we beat the last twin with two down and had the third go down before rannick stopped talking lol
im sure theres a sweatmaster on youtube soloing it by now
wraith grove
Fair enough

What counts as a "Salvo" for a semi-auto weapon. Does "Opening Salvo: +20% Power on Salvo's First shot." apply to every shot on an infantry lasgun?
limpid zinc
alright thats a good pull

if i fully charge it for the thrust stacks it one shots, no ult required
no fury stacks required either

Once the reticle bloom settles, the salvo is over, each weapon has different timing and you can see it when the buff icon toggles on and off.
For infantry lasguns I usually run headhunter/deadly accurate because I do lots of clicking but Opening Salvo is handy for hitting breakpoints on quick swap
limpid zinc
alright thats a good pull
still kinda mid with a roll like this, maybe im missing something in the mindset
its a lot like the thammer where it does crusher removal super duper good but is so mid at crowd control that the overall utility is not great

what are the most wanted perks for relics in you guy's opinion?
the ones i go for are combat ability regeneration, toughness regeneration and bonus toughness/hp
blissful sparrow
i run 2 hp and 1 toughness trinkets, all 3 have corruption resist and toughness regen, 2 have gunner damage reduction and the last one has sniper damage reduction
spiral badger
nothing will save you from bad situations more than being able to suck up getting shot a bunch by gunners

I dont want a dogass power sword if I'm gonna be playing in the higher difficulties

so the rating goes up till orange (gold? I'm colorblind), and what you gain is traits and blessings for upgrades
marsh gyro
Just slam the Brunt gacha for a 350 or so weapon and upgrade it for the ages
marsh gyro
Basically as long as you have two rank 3 blessings you can comfortably do threat 5 damnation
Each difficulty is about 50% more beef than the last so if Malice is easy then cut your teeth on Heresy and once that feels good slam that Damnation
tough compass
They only rating that actually means anything is the base rating
And that's the sum of all the stats
The rest of the rating is arbitrary values given to the different perks and blessings
marsh gyro
You can do threat 5 with a grey weapon if you're good and there's enough melk shop goodies and armory goodies you don't have to

Man, that quickdraw revolver is *fun*.
finding out that its still really accurate if you crouch and stance when firing

it's accurate as hell in general. I was half-assing some of my shots and OHKO'ing enemies.
as long as you hit.. vaguely in the area near the head and they're not an elite they're going down, it seems.

Reached the point where randos are now speed running and playing just for resources only to hide and avoid damage during the horde climax sections.
It's like anything that has even a small grind mechanic, there a type of brain that drills into it for all it's worth.
lusty kelp
Are you on heresy? That sounds like heresy.
I found heresy much harder to adjust to than damnation.
dawn totem
No I'm trying to play Malice. I've been into too many situations in Heresy where randos will blast a head and get clobbered because they didn't care they're in a Shock Troop gauntlet.
opaque crown
i find the speed runner randos to be most vexxing
then they die on their own and immediately quit
dawn totem
I swear I was in a match where we got like three separate speed runners who jumped in, ran off, died, and jumped out.
cyan depot
That’s weird
I generally place on Damnation these days and don’t run into speedrunners
I didn’t even realize that was a thing
dawn totem
It probably happens on lower difficulties, though Heresy does require some coherency.
Not just speed runners, like resource miners who grab all the bonus scriptures or grimoires and proceed to avoid any conflict.
opaque crown
I didn’t even realize that was a thing
i get em far more rarely on damnation
but i still do

dawn totem
Maybe I'm getting jaded but it feels like there's a difference between learning the game and ignoring key gameplay elements.
This might also be me being a big ol snob
opaque crown
i think its just tht some people want to go for volume rather than quality
if they get through the match fast, they can get on the next and more exp and more stuff, even if its less stuff per mission
its actually a lower efficiency approach
but can help with being in a flow state
dawn totem
Which is just... why not enjoy the game?
Or is fun just "not efficient," for that mindset?
opaque crown
i mean, in the end, they're trying to have fun in the way that works for them
its just incredibly annoying to other people they get matched with
dawn totem
Yeah I suppose. Any further and I'm going to get into that poisonous, "you're not having fun right," mentality.

The scoreboard mod has done a lot of damage to people's priorities and sense of teamwork
Fatshark was wise to not make it a standard feature

tough compass
The only time grims were worth it was when you couldn't roll melk contacts
Though making them give melk-bucks would be interesting
marsh gyro
Is there an in game glossary for the terms in the weapon bonuses like rend, brit...
There is not
You can get some cleave details by inspecting the weapon stat and mousing over it and it'll say how many enemies it goes through base and that helps eyeball if cleave% bonuses will help or nah
Rending adds straight to your armor damage % vs flak and carapace (with 10% rending if you do 40% to Flak you now do 50%) and brittleness is rending that the whole team benefits from
Cleave gets weird because there's cleave targets (how many people get hit, and set on a weapon attack by attack basis) and cleave damage (how much damage goes to each target past the first, affected by enemy hit mass) and blessing cleave bonuses help both of those out
tough compass
This site has some fan collected information: https://darktide.gameslantern.com/effects

Grendyl calls in a team of Grey Knights. You get banned from the game any time you run a mission where they appear.

Honestly I'd love to play a techpriest
Someone a bit tankier than regular folk but less tanky than the ogryn

I've been saying since launch that I want the 5th class to be a Skitarii.

Something with the speed and tankiness of an Ogryn, but the melee focus of a Zealot.

I wonder what unique Skitarii grenades would be
uneven field
Googling gives me stasis, arc, and mindscrambler grenades.
so freeze a horde in place, shock them real bad, or confuse the hell out of them with severe neural trauma.

yessss.

the penal conceit has kind of narrowed what classes they can use without just. abandoning the conceit and bringing in a character that's not one of the rejects.

The special abilities would be interesting to consider too
Static screech is a pretty good one but also damn that might be hard on the ears
uneven field
I could see a mechanicus type working as a heavy buff/debuff-er support and control type that can tank a decent amount of hits.
white portal
Yeah. Control an area around them on placing down something help people hold an area.
I'd honestly quite like it if they let them have a natural interaction bonus, like they could work with machines and everything faster because of course they do.
cyan depot
That'd be interesting
Like how Ogryn moves the cans faster
I think a lot of the stuff I'd like to see is more like cosmetics
But Navy Breacher gear would be cool

I want a way to earn the premium cosmetics, honestly.
It won't happen, but I'd just like some kind of way to grind the currency so I don't gotta drop $20-something on an outfit

uneven field
okay yes. I'd love literally any of those weapons.

a chainfist especially would be really damn fun on a zealot

shield gun on a vet could be a menace
cyan depot
It'd be great for those narrow hallways
uneven field
just park within range of an oncoming horde and go to town
cyan depot
executioner rounds would also be a fun future shotgun special
The goofy Arbites shotguns could also be really cool
white portal
I think it'd be interesting if the Skitarii had like a tesla generator that zapped enemies and gave allies toughnes for every time it zaps an enemy
cyan depot
scoped shotgun sniper rifle
white portal
Like the psyker shield but instead of shield it does damage to give toughness
uneven field
one of them needlers that eisenhorn's pilot runs could be fun. or the bigger assault version the sisters of silence tote out.
cyan depot
The Revelatum's weird revolver shotgun is basically already in the game though
uneven field
yknow what introducing a tech-adept could be a good excuse to do, too? introduce more plasma weapons.
uneven field
slap a lascannon into their hands and put a backpack on em, tbh
uneven field
I'd love an autocannon, just feel like it'd feel redundant if they don't do enough to differentiate it when the Ogryn already has a ballistic heavy in his arsenal
white portal
I'd like an ogryn las/plasma gun that is a single shot. Like the kickback, but more accurate
white portal
The world goes white for a moment and there's a hole in the beast of nurgle
uneven field
or there's suddenly empty space where a horde was a second ago

I think it could be pretty different if it was semi auto

cyan depot
There's a cool pic for it as well
uneven field
basically just a bigass man-sized elephant gun
white portal
Still love the idea of an Ogryn weapon that is just a scooper mitten that you can take the head off of someone with the alt fire and then fastball it like a rock
pale gyro
Basically a big rifle
I think the reason we dont see it is because Ogryns arent really meant to be a sniping class
Same for the las cannon idea
uneven field
the solution to that in my brain is to kill the accuracy on the guns, but amp the firepower. so one shot does a lot of damage and just clears a lot of bodies in one trigger-pull.
