Ideas for new Weapons, a thread

I already suggested Ogryn weapons so i will stick to the Humies.

Meltagun(Veteran) - short range gout of heat that applies brittle stacks naturally and deals more damage to enemies with brittle.

Plasma Pistol(Veteran/Zealot) - Pistol version of the plasmagun, which IMO shouldn’t have a reload, instead being all in on its overheat.

Flame Pistol(Zealot) - pistol version of the flamer, which IMO needs some work.

Force Axe(Psyker) - axe version of blaze force sword

Force Dagger(Psyker) - Dagger version of blaze force sword

Power Axe(Veteran/Zealot) - Axe version of powersword

Force Great Axe(Psyker) - Psyker version of the thunder hammer basically but as a bladed weapon

Short Sword and Storm Shield(Zealot) - Stormshield works more like a parry weapon rather than a full block like Ogyrn, knocking down enemies when timed correctly.

Trench Club(Veteran) - A more blunt version of the sapper shovel perhaps?

just throwing out ideas, welcome any feedback.

Give veteran the same stubber as the dreg gunners use and the hellgun the scab gunners use.

heavy flamer for ogryn

Psykers want them too

pretty sure that’s a Hot-Shot volley gun in specific, which might be more of a ogryn thing but i’m open to it.

i agree with this but i think it should be specifically for just vet. instead of the zealot getting the plasma pistol, they should get something like a heavy flamer since it’d be better for CC, which is a big thing for zealot.

It’s a hellgun/hotshot lasgun the emperial guard uses them which is why we see the scabs use them, hotshot volley guns are hellguns on steroids and are used by tempestus scions the scab gunners we fight aren’t tempestus scions they are just traitor guard.

This is a hellgun it looks pretty similar to what scab gunners use.
Hot-shot Volley Gun | Warhammer 40k Wiki | Fandom
Here’s hotshot volley gun pretty similar aswell but it’s bulkier.
Edit: Some people would argue that they are the same thing 40k lore can be a fustercluck of contradicting information.

I like it actually!

I know that it’s Necromunda, but a Stub Cannon would be lit as hell in Darktide:

these ones

the counterpart of the revolvers… not accurate at long range but more ammos in clip.

I was gutted when I saw the revolver in Darktide. More fool me, I was expecting that! Ah well, maybe oneday.

Its been a while since I played ‘Hired Gun’. I’m tempted to give it another playthrough now!

The skins used when you master the revolver is clearly a canon.
And we only have 2 variants for revolvers… the remaining is the canon.

However, it will look like a stub canon, not sure it will have the power of such weapon…

We already have necrumunda enforcer cosmetics might aswell add the stub cannon.

i’m fully aware but for consideration sake, the dreg gunner uses a heavy stubber of sorts and thus the scab one would likely be a hot-shot volley gun. both are better at suppressing fore than a standard hot-shot lasgun, which is just a high powered version of the lasgun.

It could be a hotshot volley gun I personally think it’s a hellgun but I could absolutely be wrong either way I want one.
Edit: According to the darktide wiki scab gunner use hotshot volley guns you were right my bad.

I like the heat idea. Maybe they can add a new mark for the current plasma gun as well that is heat based.

Maybe some sort of riot shield for the Vet. Maybe with 3 marks. shield and sword, shield and shovel, shield and shock maul…
