Asking for reasons unrelated to Bardin Goreksson.
eviscerator feels greataxy it does pretty much the same job and damage
Atm none tbh, hopefully the 2h Chain axe is (Or has a variant) like it, and/or Ogryn 2h (Industrial) Power Axe maybe ?
Zealot Thunder Hammers. Heavies are good for horde, lights do decent job at damaging/staggering armoured elites. The moveset is pretty similar.
It is not the same though, as Thunder Hammers revolve around special, charged attack.
Eviscerator might also feel a bit similar, but is just different.
If you ask me, I would welcome some more 2h weapons in DT, it just feels right to swing some oversized, big hunk of sharp steel at enemies. Greataxe was fun, same as Exec Sword.
Hopefully we can a Power Axe that’s Bardin’s reliable rat cutter but with a power button to rip through groups. Seems like an actual ‘missing’ weapon to me atm.
Good weapons in VT2 will be in the dlcs, don’t be silly.
I want a Power Cog-Hammer, but I’ll settle for a power pick, some recent discussions here Ogryn Weapon Variation and Two-Handed Weapons - Warhammer 40,000: Darktide / General Discussion - Fatshark Forums (fatsharkgames.com)
Honestly nothing is as unwieldy as the VT2’s Greataxe. Maybe Crusher AFTER they buff it next patch.
I still loved it to death it was so epic as a weapon.
