Hi, I was looking at the "Clang rules" when they popped up during the loading screen. Knives & Knuckle dusters< Swords< Axes & Clubs< Powerfists & Claws Where are the weapons for Banshees' and Scorpions' that fit into the top two categories? Why must they suffer in melee against the other factions? Shouldn't the Banshee get a Ghostaxe? Shouldn't the Scorpion get a Scorpion's Claw? While I'm at it. Where is the Diresword and Shimmer shield for the Dire Avengers? Have the Devs said ANYTHING about fixing ANY of the inconsistencies in the Eldar faction? Seriously, point me in the right direction. Or better yet, post up a link!
The short answer is that those are supposed to come in with Exarchs. As for when Exarchs will get in the game...well...
Still get triggered by the Exarch excuse every time I hear it... Lose the power fists, mauls, axes, swords, plasma pistols, grav pistols, storm shields and stalker boltors for example and then we can talk Exarch locks.
Banshees would have access to the following weapons: Power Sword, Mirror Blades and Executioner. Unless the Banshee scream gets buffed currently why would you take a Banshee over a DA when they get dire swords, power swords and shimmer shields? We will see what the devs have planned as the models are in the game already they just need to be implemented as weapons.
The Exarchs bit doesn't hold water since Exarchs gear is already in. The base Dark Reaper weapon, the Shuriken cannon, has never been fit to a normal Dark Reaper. The Tempest launcher is Exarchs only as well, and no Aspect warrior ever got a fusion pistol.
Ahh, yes. I had forgotten which class got those. I'm an old player so I was thinking about second edition as Aven mentioned. I thought the name had just changed. But as Asheru said, Banshees' get the Executioner (a large Axe like weapon!).
I'd have to agree with this statement. If the other factions are getting veteran/sergeant weapons, then we should have them too. I don't know about the current TT rules. Can standard marines get power fists etc?
