Eviscerator can't kill a rager

[Hrod-Ward]

You can’t kill a rager on special activation with this eviscerator at 77% dmg and 70% shredder. Why not? Why do you make the 25% against maniac obligatory.? Or is it that I’m missing that 10% shredder to hit the breakpoint? Hell, can’t hit the breakpoint even with the 25% on flak (guessing it’s because it hit the arm?? It never should tho)
If not, what’s the point when the game throws them at the player in groups of 6 or more?

Look at this chainsword

Special activation dmg is almost the same as the evi. How come? What’s the point of having a bigger and slower weapon then? Why would I need to hit the head with a two handed heavy chainsword to kill?
I don’t remember having problems to kill ragers with evi before this patch. Anyone else having this issue?

Switch to mk 15 if that matters to you.

Yesterday I tried to to play on 4th difficulty level with my EVI and I had a feeling I was able to 1hit almost everything which I don’t like tbh.

There’s no reason for anything that isn’t an ogryn to survive a giant chainsaw to the chest.

and you tried the chainsword mk4, try the mk13, you should be able to 1 shot them lmao, also crushers if it crits

[Hrod-Ward]

@Antilus

try the mk13

Both should be functional not just one mk. Same crap with the ripperguns, the laspistols, etc.

Again, nothing that isn’t an ogryn should survive a giant chainsword to to chest, specially cutting horizontally.

Even if Nurgle’s children could withstand the pain, they would still be cut in half

i know, but with all the balancing nonsense they have been trough you have just mentioned the tip of the iceberg

it would infuriates you if i tell you there was a point in time during the beta of this game where eviscerator was the best chain weapon

(then it was nerfed)

to be fair the others were underperforming untill patch 14 or something along the nerfed eviscerator, but still, the original devs gave the right proportion and correct representation of weapons power for this warhammer game, but now its so far gone thats just silly

[Orome]

The way i remember it is that evi used to be ok, but after the classes update it got buffed to almost op state.
I remember lots of people saying bleed/crit eviscerator is a meta build. Did that change and i didnt notice or smth?

[Molonious]

EDIT: nvm, got my Marks mixed up, the Mk XV will kill a Rager on a Heavy attack every time, the III will not.

Yes, the old Eviscerator and old Chainsword have been 100% power crept by their new variants and there is no reason to use them ever.

And yes, FS did buff Evisc 15 instead of the 2 this patch.

Mk 2 Evisc has a much more fun moveset than the 15 and its a massive shame FS has decided that the weapon simply doesn’t exist.
