    Yes, I suck hard with low mobility.
    Yes, I will absolutely keep hating on DT bots.
    No, don't run into a back alley with 2 spawn doors on opposite ends when your gun only fires 1 shot.

      I struggle to play ogryn well and not take toughness damage sometimes cuz ogryn is so big and slow. Sure we can get good at sliding around but i feel like you get into trouble with ogryn when there are tons of shooters and no melee enemies around which is often. I feel like ogryn shines in the thick of things and I also feel like his weapons being very clunky and slow and or single shot really make him a war of attrition type character cuz you really never know what the director gonna spawn into the maps. I say all that but then I watch telopots play ogryn and not take amy health damage for like 10 minutes straight lolol😂

      Ogryns need a bit more time to master since they don’t play like other classes. Plus, they face unique challenges, like finding cover that’s actually big enough to hide behind. We just have to keep practicing!

    The people that leave so bots can save me after trying to clutch for 15 minutes straight are the true hero’s.

      I'm pretty sure 95% leave because they think it's over. But the very few that care , sure, you gotta love them.

    The branx is so painfully slow but you can't deny playing whack-a-runt with 15 crushers is hella fun lol

      Indeed! As slow as it is, at least you do have immensely powerful attacks.

    I think the pick axe is nice but I still hope Ogryns still get there own big bonk stick or some sorta big hammer that would be sweet.

    I also tried running Pickaxe with kick back and ran into same problem of low mobility when getting swarmed xD. So i started using Rumbler instead of kickback bonus if u have big boom as it makes stagger radius bigger, works like a charm.
    But playing whack a mole with crusher gank does make u feel cool af when you come out on top.

    Love the branx but so tough to deal with groups of specials since the push is so slow. Timing attacks, not wasting dodges, and positioning have to be top on the brain or else you get dogged, trapped, bursted constantly at the frontline. I love the rumbler too but its way too unreliable at killing specials, so feels like the kickbacks a must. It would be great and hilarious if they gave ogryn a 1-handed handcannon in the future to better deals with specialists.

      Honestly i think Ripper Mk5 or Mk2 is goated with the pickaxes, especially branx. Tried it yesterday with mk2 ripper and it just shreds everything pretty well, plus you can stack brittle with can opener. Big boom nade when you get cornered and can't bull rush out

      @@cherryrook8684ive had a MK II ripper thats basically a god roll and i stopped playing with it because it would never kill anything. Are you supposed to brace it more it really used to piss me off. I have a V as well i just dont use it cuz im so bad at controlling the recoil.

    • @infrared6973

      I dont really struggle at all to use the branx and its the pickaxe I have the most time with. I have a nice karsolas but I havent played with it much cuz im always partial to the branx and its the axe i see most in games. I think just value one shotting things so much that they almost always opt to take the branx into games and I dont blame them. A limb splitter thrust branx is hilarious at quickly getting rid of things in one heavy swing its pretty insane.

      @@infrared6973 The mk2 has big dmg fall off and large spread pattern thats why it struggles at anything past medium range and all rippers suck against armor (thats what can opener is for). But it has the highest pellet count and dmg out of all the variants so it is quite deadly up close
      The mk5 tho has insane range because it has a very tight spread pattern and the dmg fall off is generous, if you can get used to the recoil its excellent at sniping specials and gunners and still has respectable boss dmg. I’ve used it since release pretty much and it made me start liking the rippers

    • @xstreamdray
      @xstreamdray  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      When I'm playing seriously, I usually go for the Mk 5 Ripper or the Achlys Stubber. Kickback's fun and all, but you get bullied when you’re flanked by multiple Specials.
      As for Rippers, the only mark I'd really recommend is Mk 5. It’s the most consistent variant, thanks to its high minimum pellet count, which makes it reliable even at longer ranges. The other Ripper marks may have more manageable recoil, but their lower pellet count makes them practically useless beyond close quarters. Still, I'd keep the other marks in case they rebalance them one day.

    Try using the branx with crunch and thrust, wayyy overkill but fun to use

      Haha it is overkill indeed. You can already 1 shot Crushers with this blessing combo!

    • @xstreamdray
      @xstreamdray  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No I don't - not yet. My current situation makes it tough - I’m constantly getting interrupted mid-game. My playtime is pretty irregular and I don't actually get to play much, so I wouldn’t be able to maintain a consistent streaming schedule.
      That said, my situation might change in about a year, so I’ll see how things look then!

      If you're talking about the Unstoppable talent, I’ve noticed that if you’re already cutting through enough enemies for it to be useful, toughness isn't your main concern. The real issue arises when elites join the fight and block your cleave entirely - that’s when faster attack speed becomes far more critical.
