I feel like putting in here a general response as many tended to latch on to me saying ‘shield is the only viable Ogryn’ and ‘lambasting’ me for it xD SO,
I will say my reasoning behind that is the only Ogryn’s I’ve seen that have seemingly done well have been using the shield, and it also just fully fixes the ‘gets ripped apart by gunners’ issue if used right. This being the reason I said what I did.
But I will also note the pick axe is an incredible weapon, and the only Ogryn build I can personally stomach uses it. It does very well, and the la with a I think it’s a light heavy combo (or a heavy light, one of the two) clears waves pretty well still while hard bonking almost everything, and that feels absolutely satisfying. Pairing it with a ‘wave clear rumbler’ or a kick back is also good joy.
but, all that still doesn’t fix the main gripes I have with the class, which many have gone into in here and made me ‘refine’ my annoyance xD.
Ended up thinking what I said next should be it’s won ‘Feedback’ post, so I did one!
