I love this game very much, but damn is it dissapointing how weak Ogryns are. You really need to buff him. Make his heavy attacks quicker and make him able to get out of hound attacks by himself at the least. That would make much more sense to a brute that size and strength. Its pathetic otherwise

Why? OP’s not saying anything different from the other ogryn threads.

other classes are just too strong, but that doesn’t mean Ogryn is weak. He’s not exactly strong, but he’s decent.

He does take some skill to play, but if you know what you’re doing, he works just fine. skilled players can even carry T5 HISTG with him.

the ones calling Ogryn weak are usually those who rely too much on DS, meta builds, and weapons. and those players make up most of Auric.

since the Unlocked & Loaded update, tons of new players have joined, but because of OP weapons, builds, and classes, many are jumping into high-difficulty content without enough skill.

Most of the players are simply bad at meleeing, and melee is where ogryn shines, at ANY difficulty.

He also plays very different from human classes, so you can’t just transfer your learnt skills over.

How wrong? Majority of his weapons are underpowered and people have an issue with his talent tree at the surface level. Not many of us have the time to get nuanced about it.

So if you are unwilling to put the mileage in, the class is to blame?

How bout we leave one class honest, you’ll still have 3 other to pick your cheese from.

Not wrong

But there is something wrong regarding the Ogryn weapons…  
They have not all the same efficiently.

I’m asking if you think Ogryn is balanced in comparison with other classes. Since you keep saying the other classes have a “get out of jail free” button and to play Ogryn well you have to become better, you did answer. You consider Orgyn to take more skill, so indirectly you admit Ogryn isn’t on the same level as the other classes.

Perfect timing, since you need more explanation as to why Ogryn is bad: [https://youtu.be/R\_Y7wESzWA8?si=0vOkWvZLF5F2bXva&t=7676](https://youtu.be/R_Y7wESzWA8?si=0vOkWvZLF5F2bXva&t=7676)

Every talent and keystone has better alternatives on other classes.

No, people are getting the vibe that something is already wrong with the class.

People have put mileage into the class and the above statements don’t change.

They already are pretty stronk. But they could use a buff. Disabling disablers though? Idk bout that.

Ogryn needs a full rework for his skill tree. He is the only class who is not allowed to use light attacks and the majority of his melee weapons are still stuck in patch 12. He’s playable because you can brute force anything in this game with enough skill, but the vast majority of his kit is not fun. Also his dodges are infuriating to play true solos with.

Exactly!

I get migraine listening to him after 5min, sorry, can’t do.

You just gotta melee harder, and all your troubles will go away.

So… use pickaxe?

It’s not like humans are swimming in S tier choices, havoc lobbies are literally 80% DS4.

And if we talking about anything under high havoc, all ogryn melee works fine.

Even accounting for hyperbole, that’s way too much credit being given to ogryn’s weapons.

It’s a low bar you set. Some of us aim higher.
