Rapier vs Bulwark

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Bugs

Issue Type (Required):

Gameplay

Issue Description (Required):

On Cataclysm Saltzpyres Rapier feels disproportionately weak against Bulwarks. When attacking the Bulwarks shield from the front, the shield drops extremely slowly or almost not at all, especially compared to most other weapons. In solo play this makes Bulwarks feel practically impossible to open reliably with Rapier, which looks like a bugged attack/stagger/shield-damage profile for this weapon against this enemy type.

I think that’s pretty realistic. It’s like using a toothpick against an anvil…

the damage to the shield is equal to the superarmor damage of your attack.

rapier bodyshots are obviously not good enough, but you can headshot him while the shield is up and it will count as a headshot for the purpose of opening the shield.

i think 1 crit headshot and 1 normal headshot with the charged stab will open the shield
