Gorgonum Mk IV Twin-Linked Heavy Stubber - Blaze Away stack issue

Seems the Gorgonum Mk IV variant is not able to achieve maximum stacks with the Blaze Away blessing. Unloaded a full clip and my stacks only went up to 4, it could never hit the max 5 stacks.

Maybe the slower rate of fire wasn’t taken into account on this variant, might need to adjust the stack build up for this variant

Still should probably be fixed, but maybe with charmed reload you can get full stacks? Or is the issue it doesn’t shoot fast enough to keep stacks up?

Its probably the latter, I shouldn’t have to rely on a blessing to have another blessing work properly.
Blaze away should work with or without charmed reload. There are slow firing weapons that are able to get to 5 stacks with still a good bit in the clip to take advantage of the blessing at max stacks.
With this variant forget about that, you cant even hit max stacks

I know, I’m just suggesting a way to hold over until/if it gets fixed.

Achlys, which has the fastest fire rate out of all Stubbers, also suffers from this problem. Though it CAN reach 5 stacks, it requires charmed reload to do so and needs to fire at least 20 seconds without stopping to reach them, which is utterly absurd and eats up half the gun’s total ammo supply.

I thought I was the only one that this was happening to! But yea, I was puzzled as to why Blaze Away wasn’t stacking pass 4 in the best of times… Hope they get this fixed soon! Thanks for posting about this as well!

Yup, tested in missions also and for those scenarios you are not even really seeing it stack past 2 stacks.
Seems most of the blessings aren’t that great for this variant. Like charmed reload seemed like a must have in stubbers but its really lacking in this slower variant. Maybe cause it shoots slower so your not getting crits as often as the krourk or achlys.
Seems the best blessings for this gun are the mediocre blessings Deathspitter or Overwhelming Fire

thanks for the comment Ryken, love the YT vids! keep them coming

The same problem with “Overwhelming fire”, it takes forever to activate.

and it’s super annoying to have 2 blessings that barely work

Yeah I hear ya, the one time I don’t want to roll them, I roll them:

@FatsharkCatfish and the only thing you’re about to fix is Fire Frenzy? :smiling_face_with_tear:

Yep, Blaze Away (tier 3 blessing on mine) for the Gorgonum Heavy Stubber is not working properly. I can barely get up to the 3rd stack before running out of ammo, whilst firing 90 rounds non-stop.

I can’t understand how this isn’t fixed yet, Blazy Away have been bugreported for months on various points and weapons.

But i can see a specific bugreport on Blaze Away from May 16th in this forum with the title: Blaze Away and Overwhelming Fire not working right w/ Ogryn Stubbers

I did bugreport this in the subreddit r/Darktide, April 14th (1 month ago).

  1. Heavy Stubber (every Mk) CAN NOT reach 5 stacks without Charmed Reload.
  2. Heavy Stubber Mk IV needs to fire continuously for 19 secounds to reach 5 stacks of Blaze Away.
  3. Heavy Stubber Mk VII needs to fire continuously for 12 seconds to reach 5 stacks of Blaze Away.
  4. Heavy Stubber Mk VI needs to fire continuously for 14 seconds to reach 5 stacks of Blaze Away.
