heavy bolter or bolters in generals are pathetic, this is the worst representation of bolters in any warhammer game series, it's basically peashooters. I love how the bolter works in the darktide, the recoils almost destroyed the holder, however enemy big fat ogryns are all shredded in seconds. bolter can't even one shoot a minors.

and the melee weapons do almost no staggers to majors and the damage is minimum, right now only melta could make the game fun.

Outside of stalker bolter, they need help.

Plasma on the other hand is great, what

Some reason some bolters have extra penetration targets as trait? Does this work on shields?

If they stagger they'd make majoris irrelevant, melee does need more damage tho, specially thunder hammer who currently takes 3 swings to kill tzaangors for ruthless as an artifact

I agree, plasma is dope as hell, best heavy killing weapon.

Heavy bolter is hot baby food though.

Yea heavy bolter in this game is bad, perhaps mechanicus accidentally swap it with stubber.

plasma is great but you need to charge. it is then also much more efficient. it does more damage then single shots per energy

great? heavy plasma straight up mediocre at best, its horrendous compared to melta, long charge time + easy overheat (2 max charge goes overheat) + small area, also at higher difficulty, you always swarmed, means you cant charge properly even in heavy stance (this is why plasma GUN is good, fast charging time)

Literally Fired 2 fully charged shots into a Rubric on 3rd difficulty and he still didn't get put into execute. Either there's an algorithm that is making people experience different games or people are trolling.

Use heavy bolter with heavy on hardest, works even with randoms. It's not as good as the melta and the sound from the bolters needs more umph when shooting.

I love the heavy bolter, but it needs some stagger when it's at full rate of fire to compete with the mukti-melta.

The plasma.... Needs far more splash damage and why the heck does it have so little ammo vs the rifle variant or even pistol?!?
