First pokkit rokkit isn't ohk. Second orks also don't get powersword weapons, melta equivs, vehicles that don't flip all the time, a decent shield, the bolter, plasma guns, and their animations are still screwy. Almost every gun they do have has some kind of major flaw, big shoota is an un responsive pos imo, the rokkit has to get a direct hit now to be of much use at all, the plasma deff runs out of ammo faster than any other weapon in the game, ork heal beacon is still too easy to hit, dakka deffgun is the worst of the HB equivs, useless uniques like umie fryer and skip launcha, can't throw grenades over cover, the kannon has to do a preset animation etc. The kannon is actually pretty easy to beat once you know its there. Problem os people still haven't learned hlw to fight against it. Atm the orks rely heavily on these unfun to play against weapons because many of their other options are just way less viable and less versatile. Is the shoota bad? No but that doesn't mean I wouldn't rather prefer a bolter with a cqc mod.
Shoota with CQC and AP ammo will shred any bolter, i dont know what your on about. Big shooter has a set up because its a suppresion weapon, and having a suppression weapon on a cap class is amazing. Your shields arent as good as LSM BUT YOU HAVE A SHIELD ON A CLASS THAT CAN CAP. Chaos can cap with a ground assault but have no shield. LSM have a shield but cant cap. You get both. also theres a unique shield with the same durability as LSM ones. The Rokkit is an AV weapon, its not meant to be much use against infantry, but it can still one shot them, and you dont get powersword equivs but you do get a sword with fire ailment which is better anyway, you also get autocannons. you also have the highest EHP in the game with the best DPS guns at close range, an ork wont lose a straight up fight in cqc. Stop pretending orks are hard done by, orks whine more than LSM nowadays.
probably because it does less damage than the normal lasblaster and isnt on a class that can capture, where as a bigshooter has higher dps than the normal shooter and is able to also cap the point.
No offense bud, but a weapon that can oneshot a braced SM Vet class with Stormshield is just stupid op. No lock on time required, just an approximate guessing where the target is, charge up behind cover, come out, poof. SM gone. And during Sieges, theres so many people inside houses that you dont even need to see anybody, just make an educated guess and fire in there. Youll most possibly kill 2-3 people anyway. Everybody who thinks that Kannon Deffgun in its current configuration is a balanced weapon, also thought that the old version of the Plasmacannon was completely fine. It needs a nerf, i dont care of what sort.
Appearently it does due to splash damage. I stood right next to my bud when we both dropped from 1 deffgun missile. Him on Vet ducked down behind his shield. A bug?
229 replies and 23 pages later your damned right this is getting seen to. The nerf is coming, the tears will be real, it will be long anticipated, long overdue, much needed, and it will be beautiful.
I've seen multiple instances of my shieldbro (or Orkbro too) dying to AoE damage while shields are up. I don't think shields protect against AoE's and AV weapons like Meltas will burn straight through shields. I've had a grenade explode infront of me and be ok, but behind or to the side and it still hits rather reliably.
