You know you grot faces wanna shoot lighting out of your face when charging at the enemy. Think future classes will be added and we can get ourselves some weird boyz?
I posted this in another thread, but the way Wyrdboyz are described in the lore, their abilities are almost like bodily functions. Some Orks are known to lift up their Wyrdboyz like he's a cannon, point him at the enemy, and let him vomit psykic spew all over them, to devastating effect. I'm not sure how well this could be implemented though. However, one function I ABSOLUTELY want in the game is when, sometimes, the Wyrdboy uses too much psykic potential and "overloads," exploding in a catastrophic event that annihilates anyone in the vicinity. So I'm thinking, if I were a Wyrdboy, and I'm close to exploding, I'd do my best to make my way towards the enemy, and then launching myself at their lines before exploding. If managed right, I make a big hole in their line, which da boyz can then exploit. So I envision Ork Wyrdboyz being "better" than a normal, say, SM psyker, while at the same time having this risk; use your awesome abilities too much, and you'll explode.
I really like the idea that a wyrdboy will have more raw potential than a typical psyker but it's so undisciplined and hair-trigger than it can easily be a burden rather than a boon. That riding-the-line feel you get from a design that follows that principle is great, it's similar when you pump the luck stat in an rpg, or you constantly hit when playing blackjack. I mean what could POSSIBLY GO WRONG?
as ork, our psyker can believe thought into existence. Our psychic ability makes us the strongest psyker race technically. Unfortunately, this also means orks have contributed more the chaos than most.
I really like the idea of wyrdboys being in the game and for the whole pshcic overload thing we keep hearing about I like to think its like overheat on a weapon you shoot too much too fast and BOOM SHACKA-LACKA there goes that wyrdboy and everyone around him so it would be pretty cool if they implemented a sort of mini mini game where when the wyrdboy dies the player floats up into the air with their controls randomized on direction and they have like 10 seconds to guide themselves toward the other guys before goin BOOM SHACKA-LACKA ( yes me new favorite phrase after DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA )
As much I wanna see a weirdboy on the battlefield I also wanna see a shock attack gun with all it's mishaps Well actually I wanna see a shock attack gun more but I would love to see a weirdboy also.
Who needz weird boyz? I can make your finkin' part of yur 'ead be all flashy too. Just give me a few dayz wiv you an' dem tank partz.
