I made this to show that I think even having a discussion on the big man is good. Any bit of feedback is useful regarding the state of the game as devs follow these forums. Hopefully they will make the changes.
Biggest issues for the Ogryn currently, that most I think agree on is:
Toughness & Shooters; he really suffered from the changes to toughness and the additive values of the toughness dmg resistance; this should be rolled back partly, as he now feels clumsy but does not feel “tanky”; he is too brittle. I am talking about engaging shooters, and covering the distance. Give him back the toughness he had before. Most ppl who comment on “him being fine”: have literally not played him or understand that he should be a tanky class: that can rip the turret of a tank: and no I do not want to use slide to scoot around and try to avoid shooters; I want to charge in the midst of them and come out on top.
Having the Bull Charge; replenish toughness like 20% at the start of the charge would help a lot to close the distance: as he is often dropped by shooters; when charging.
Stun immunity; during Bull Charge: stun immunity to dogs and nets would really be appreciated
Getting stuck: He is 3 ton guy; so his dodge should knock down smaller enemies.
Why: Because lore; not everything needs to be “balance for balances sake”: its about the fantasy of playing an ogryn.
Ripper Gun: Needs more damage or umph to add to the feeling of clearing the rooms with it. Its blessings do not function so great. Especially as the strenght from emptying the mag does not do much: similarly the crit change with bleed is ok, but the chance to crit is not so high even with the blessing to prok the crits. + Adding just 5% to reload speed, would make it really great plus some buff to damage.
Grenade gauntlet: my god it is awful: never use it is just bad all around: like so bad. Melee so slow: damage even worse.
Finally suggestion for cosmetics; would it be possible to get a backpack with various medals, that would be added; pending what we have accomplished: or a slot wear them on the armor: shoulder, or chest; perhaps a shoulder pad or similar: would be really cool for bragging rights. This would I think increase immersion and allow us to show who the vets are in game. Without it being too obtrusive
As the portraits and the titles do not do so much. It would be cool to show them on the character.
