Please reduce the number of regular shooter spawns

Was doing the Raid mission type where you loot and stack ammunition into the Valkyrie’s storage unit and maybe about 10-15% through the stage, there were about 40-ish shooters in one little tunnel. The Ogryn in our party basically was shot to death nearly instantly and with how they stagger/stunlock you, you can’t even fight back. For anyone wondering this was on just Uprising difficulty. I can’t even imagine how many more there’d be on Lvl 4/5.

Suggestions:
Reduce how many can spawn in one area
Make them less accurate (Can’t imagine random dregs given a rifle to be as accurate as trained soldiers of the Militarum)
Make the Ogryn shield not take up stamina from blocking shots. Melee should still reduce stamina
When you shoot at them, make them consistently take cover. (Noticed that they don’t suffer from suppression debuff or they simply just outright ignore it and don’t run for cover whenever they are shot at.

I love it, but I’m a Veteran and exist to basically wipe out enemy shooters at range. At higher difficulty I’ve seen a hundred of the goons continue to reinforce some point they’re defending. It’s amazing.

They do take suppression, but some weapons are better at suppressing than others. When they’re suppressed they’ll duck and either sit there or make a break for cover. Ogryn grenade launchers are also good for knocking them down while the squad advances into melee range so the enemy shooters have to switch to melee.

I do agree that Ogryn Slab Shield should be a bit better at blocking heavy ranged fire (because they really only need to use it when A LOT of shots are coming their way) but there are block cost reduction curios to upgrade yourself with, which will probably become a major meta for Ogryn at higher difficulties.
