Do we actually need another electric maul?

New class Skiitari, has it’s own maul.

I think we have enough…

But I would like opinions.

Need ? Not really.

But can we use one ? Maybe, it’s a base weapon for the Skitarii.

It’s in preparation for the eventual Electro-Priest class.

Yeah, no cog halberd or baroque transonic bec de corbin for skitarii, unfortunately.

Cog Halberd/Omnissian Axe pretty much had 0 chance for the Skitarii.

What we could have had could be:

  • Arc: Lance (though tied more to the secutarii, 30k only)
  • Taser: Goad (Think Duel Sword but electric), Lance
  • Dataspike: Mechandendrite
  • Transonic: other pairing, Glaive (30k only)

FS seem to prioritise weapons that can be seen on miniatures though

My bet is they have weapon dlcs planned next

the skitarii promotion site on steam still mentions electric goads, but i think it’s just a persistent error

Well from the 2 ish seconds of it in the trailer its more like a power sword than a zappy club. But to answer your question no, there is no such thing as too many blunt weapons. Sometimes you need to deliver the bash, sometimes the slash. If anything my Ogryn wants that cattle prod Packmaster is bogarting.

I am sure GW is behind that.

I think is the reason why we don’t have new Arbites skin…

But why we don’t havev new Scum skins?.. No idea.
