Bi-Annual, Give Shields to Zealots and Vets!

[AndiNagasaki]

Title says it all i think Zealots and Vets should get a shield option.

they would be able to block as the Slab Shield but perhaps have a different Special.
maybe the Character will Kneel when they block making them cover for their allies?

.

Adeptus Arbites

.

Palanite Enforcers

.

Navy Breachers Shieldbearer

.

Imperial Agent Subdjugators

.

Scout Shields(still dont know where its from)

.

give us a Shock Maul / Devil Claw Sword / Heavy Sword Version,
i think its about time for something like this in Darktide.
and some of the shields are already in game.

Thoughts, Comments, Concerns?
Thanks

Thoughts,[…]?

Gun-shield! Me want, gun shield. Shield with gun, gunshield! Shield… gun! Gun… shield!!

Am I making myself clear?

[tool2101]

Arbites skins could go fire .

And maybe something could be done to ogryns too (if plastic miniatures lore isn’t taken to serious).

[Murderer]

Considering this is our enforcer design in game

I am not expecting arbites to look cool!

[Lexxxielove]

i mean, i think that’s cool enough. i DO think it should have been better, but it’ll work for until we get something better.

[Murderer]

To me it looks like this

[Lexxxielove]

maybe an optometrist can help?

[Murderer]

He said they’re the same. He also said the darktide version of the red bionicle is worse

[Lexxxielove]

who are you talking about?

[Murderer]

The optometrist, he also said he wouldn’t pay for the darktide cosmetic

[Lexxxielove]

well that’s him, other people will.

As before, that’s a kitbash, there are no Imperial Guard shels

[oleanus]

forgets crusaders but a buckler would be very welcome as a parry weapon

[Lexxxielove]

agreed!

[MadMartigan]

Omg this is f***ing cool!!

I usually paint Orks but damn I’d love to paint that dude too.

And yeah I’ve been crying out for Arbites cosmetics forever. Would be so awesome!

[Hextechnician]

Same. But I did buy the body armor for the Psyker and stuck the feather cap on it, looks pretty dope with the 2H sword.

Very knightly.

Or maybe more Musketeer? Looks cool either way.

[AndiNagasaki]

personally i would love the armors if they were added,

but also i would love shields type weapons for the Vet and Zealot.
it be nice to run a Shock& Shield build for the Zealot, or a Chainsword& Shield build for Vet.

also it would open up new ways to play,
as right now its all about Golden Toughness in higher levels.
having a shield option could break up some of that.

Need this + Crusader career for the Zealot.

Came to this topic just to search for this.
Throw us a Crusader Oath keystone on top (no ranged, but overdone melee + 2 melee weapons) and I am set.
