Ogryn Siege Drill
Ogryn Siege Drill800×600 257 KB

Melee Slot

  • 1st action: work similarly to the Grenadier Gauntlet, with heavy and light attacks, but attacking more with the front/Drill part than the side/casing
  • 2nd action: Block
  • 3rd action: Chain/Drill Activation like other Chain weapons

Balance:

  • Use the same mechanic as the Evicerator (So Rev on attacks)
  • Strong against armoured targets
  • Better against single targets than hordes

maybe but this into feedback?

Not really feedback, it’s just discussion stuff, like Classes, Archetypes and so on speculations and fan theorizing

But i think the first thing the Ogryn needs is one real melee weapon. One that kills and not just yeet mobs around. An Axe. A big one with a long handle that he swings with both hands. Maybe even the 2 hand chain axe from the maulers.

The Mk III cleaver kills stuff when you put Slaughterer on it.

The new Brunt’s Pride is pretty decent I think. Its not fast horde clear but I don’t feel like I need Haymaker for it to function like bully and like I’m still doing something unlike shovel. I’d still buff the other cleave damage distributions in order of how badly its needed: krourk cleavers, shovels and then clubs.

He’s also missing 2 archetypes of shield and club as it is. I really hope there’s one close to an axe and shield in function. We also have 2 variants of shovel not seen and 2 more power mauls to expect. At least in terms of ‘stuff we know is coming’. But a horde clear oriented shovel would hit the same roadblock. I’d love a power maul oriented for single target damage though, that is the main thing keeping me from running it more.

Sounds badass! Would totally use it!
