All the Staves

imageimageimageimageimage

Mixing them up to follow clear ideas:
Light attack: Beam and Bolt
Charged attack: Shotgun blast, AoE Witchfire,

Staff rework: As currently there are only “Force Staves” who currently can’t exchange their blessing i’d create 3 or more categories for them, each category sharing blessings inside of it when possible:
Force (Force Staff): Take the Trauma and the Void plus follow:

  • Assault staff: Light being Bolt, heavy being the Shotgun blast
  • Barage Staff: Light Force Bolt, charge to shoot multiple bolts at once

Biomancy (Biomantic Staff): Take Surge plus:

  • Blood Staff: Light being either a beam that cause damage and constrict, heavy being a AoE Bleed
  • Boil: Same as before, heavy being a single target charge that cause it to explode on death

Pyromancy (Flame/Heat Staff): Take Flamer plus:

  • Sunburst Staff: light being Flame DoT beam, heavy being like Coruscoration

With new classes:

Death Cult Assassin (Zealot)


Kruber’s Bretonnian Sword
imageimage
Remade into a Assassin Power Sword (See Inquisitor Martyr)
→ Zealot Assassin; Veteran Squad Leader


Kerillian’s Glaive
image
Remade into a Assassin Power Axe
→ Zealot Assassin; Zealot Preacher;


Kerillian’s Dual Swords and Sword&Dagger
imageimageimageimage
Remade into a Assassin Swords and Assassin Sword and Dagger
Special attack being backstabs themed ? Or Powering them up
→ Zealot, Psyker and Veteran


Biomancer (Psyker)


Sienna’s Fire Sword
imageimage
Remade as a Psyker Biomantic Sword (New type, separated from the Force Sword ? Biomantic Swords exist in Inquisitor Martyr)
Instead of using Telekinesis Discipline use Biomancy to power their bodies. Letting them strike unarmed like their arms are made of steel.
Would not have the Flame DoT, but use some of the set moves with the unarmed strike (Hammerhand/Steel Arm). Could still have shock DoT as Bio electricity is part of the Biomancy kit.
Special attack being a separate unarmed attack, charging more might to release at the cost of peril.
Could have different variants, one letting you charge electricity into the blade, another letting you charge it into you hand…
→ Psyker


Enforcer (Zealot)


Sienna’s Fire Mace and Fire Flail
imageimage

Remade as Shock Mace and Shock Flail

imageimage

Changing the Fire effects to Electricity/Shock effects DoT.
Special action letting you charge it up for AoE.
→ Would lead to Shielded versions of them too.
→ Zealot and Veteran, maybe Psyker for the non shielded ones

Crusader (Zealot)

Kruber’s Bretonnian Sword and Shield
image
Remade as a Power Sword and (Assault Shield)

Special being the Power Sword activation or Assault Shield activation (Maybe both if we can have it be dependent on whether you’re blocking or not)
→ Zealot Crusader and Veteran

I’m completely biased and won’t even pretend, but I loved using the drakefire pistols on Bardin.

Id love to have a 2h axe on my zealot that works like the elven glaive.

I’d be happy with any dual wielded melee weapon for zealot and a two handed weapon for ogryn, preferably an axe or something. Ogryn has enough weapons to throw stuff around, something that actually kills would be nice.

I’d also like some kind of flail in the game. Really liked the flails in VT2.

Surely there is some sort of Flail with 40k flair, being electrical, powered up, or chain. Loved it back in VT2 and would adore a new sci-fi version on Zealot.

In lore: Chain, Shock, Power and Ogryn are talked about

Force I don’t think there has already been

GIVE ME A TWO HANDED CHAIN AXE WITH MOVESET INSPIRED BY GREAT AXE OR COGHAMMER FATSHARK YOU COWARDS.

Sorry not sure what came over me there…

Coghammer I’d want to see with an Admech Archetype release, with the high tier weapon being an Omnisian Axe

Electro-Flail - Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

200px-ElectroFlail

Looks more like a cat o’ nine tails whip, rather than a flail, which has a solid stick or ball for hitting, rather than the lash.

That picture is from the 40k Lex page on primitive flails, so maybe they’d come back as a mundane weapon.

When I saw your post I was thinking of this guy really Arco-Flail - Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

220px-ArcoFlagellantInquisitor

Maybe if we get a playable skitarii class down the road hm :slight_smile:

I would like a BIG ASS 2h axe on Ogryn!

and something like the rapier, dueling sword & plasma pistol maybe?

The Enforcer are noted to have a more traditional Shock Flail too

Those aren’t Skitarii though, and would not reallly work with the game mechanic (ranged and melee)

Though as Pet/allies if we were to get a Horde Mode it would be an awesome useable

It’s a servitor but close enough, I thought enforcers got a shock maul -

Shock Maul - Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

ShockMaul Looks kind of like the ogryn weapon but smaller version.

Apparently there is also a shock baton.

200px-EnforcerArt4

Shock Baton - Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

One thing 40k is not short of is weapons ha

Arco Flagelant are a special case, and even Servitor I would be against it.

As for Enforcer, they use Shock weapons among: Shock Staves, Shock Maul, Shock Flail, Shock Glove and Shock Baton

Shock glove cool like a mini power fist?

Slap the Knight Longsword’s block during heavy attack charge on the Slab Shield.

More like Shocking grasp, but there are Shock Gauntlets that are more like Shock variants of Power Fists

Shocking grasp makes me think of d&d :slight_smile:

I want one of those gloves irl would be fun
