Playing other games like DRG and Helldivers 1, it can be fun to have random load outs. Especially if you want an extra challenge playing on lower difficulties with friends.
I was thinking this can have a few different ways of existing.
1.) Click a button to randomize character, talents, career, weapons, trinkets, and weapon config. You won’t know what you rolled until you go into the mission. It won’t use your own weapons and trinkets these will be randomly rolled.
1a.) Instead of true randomness for gear it could give you guaranteed quality of gear base on player level and/or difficulty:
Recruit: Grey (Or higher?)
Veteran: Green (Or higher?)
Champion: Blue (Or higher?)
Legend: Orange (Or higher?)
Cata: Red
1b.) Maybe it even randoms hero type. So instead of just 1/4 for Saltz’s careers it would be any available hero and any one of their careers.
2.) Developers choice. Like a weekly challenge/event. They could have “Builds of the week” (Maybe even community driven) for players to try out. Could include DLC content as a way for players to try content they don’t have access to yet for a limited time. See if you can beat a cataclysm run with this high risk/reward build that’s squishy DPS.
I think this would also help to promote people to try new things while offering some incentive to do it.
Also maybe add extra XP, commendation chest, ranalds bar, etc. when doing it. Could be done in adventure mode or chaos wastes mode.
Something similar could also be done in darktide, even easier with talent points and there being no restriction on people playing the same class.
