[1.7.x] Ogryn Talents & Mechanics

This guide explains all of Ogryn's talents and related mechanics. Talents of the other classes are detailed elsewhere:

• Psyker's talents
  
• Veteran's talents
  
• Zealot's talents

For details on weapon blessings and their mechanics:

• Melee weapon blessings
  
• Ranged weapon blessings

For curio stats and their mechanics, and more:

• Curios, Stimms, Difficulty Mutators, Player Debuffs

Base Stats

Ogryn has the following base stats which can be modified by respective talents. Some of these base stats interact with the respective toughness, stamina, dodge, sprint, and handling templates of currently wielded weapons.

Basic

Health (alive) health	300
Health (downed) knocked_down_health	1000
Crit chance base_critical_strike_chance	2.5%

Toughness

Toughness max	75
Toughness on Melee Kill replenish_types.melee_kill	5% of max toughness

Coherency Toughness

Coherency toughness regeneration is active only when there are no enemies occupying slots around the player unit (Darktide's slot system is similar to Vermintide 2's slot system). Coherency toughness regeneration is disabled while the player is downed or while the player is affected by specific debuffs like toxic gas or ground fire; while carrying luggable mission objects (e.g. batteries, containers) the regeneration is extremely slowed and reduced.

The coherency regen delay (i.e. the time until coherency regeneration kicks in after its conditions have been met) is currently bugged: If the last enemy occupying a slot is in melee combat, it varies depending on the length of the death animation of this enemy and hence, only in this case, is unaffected by the toughness_regen_delay_multiplier provided by Toughness Regeneration Speed curios.

Coherency Radius PlayerCharacterConstants.coherency.radius	8m
Base Coherency Toughness Regen Delay regeneration_delay regeneration_delay_modifier	1.5s

Passive Talents

Ogryn has three passive talents ('Class Iconic') that are always active by default:

"tank"

+25% Toughness Damage Reduction & +20% Health Damage Reduction.

stat buffs:
toughness_damage_taken_multiplier
damage_taken_multiplier
static_movement_reduction_multiplier

Grants 25% toughness damage reduction as well as 20% damage reduction. Both damage reduction buffs stack multiplicatively with each other (i.e. this talent by itself provides Ogryn with 40% toughness damage reduction; 1-0.75x0.8=0.4) and with other damage reduction buffs.

Also removes the movement speed penalty while carrying luggable mission objects (e.g. batteries, containers, etc).

"helping_hand"

Being damaged while Reviving or Assisting allies no longer interrupts you.

buff keyword: uninterruptible

stat buff: push_speed_modifier

Taking health damage while reviving, rescuing, freeing allies from nets, and pulling allies up from ledges does not interrupt Ogryn. Also reduces the distance enemies can push Ogryn during these actions by 90% so that he can't be moved out of interaction range as easily.

"dodge_stagger"

Dodging staggers nearby Non Elite/Special, human-sized, enemies.

Enables Ogryn's dodge action to stagger smaller enemies within a 1.5m radius on collision; stagger strength decreases per distance travelled during dodge and per number of executed consecutive dodges before collision.

Affected breeds: Armored Groaner, Bruisers, Groaner, Poxwalker, Poxwalker (lesser mutated), Poxwalker (mutated), Scab Shooter, Stalkers

Talent Nodes (Part I)

Ammo Stash

Icon            

Mechanics

Increase your ammo reserve by +25%.

stat buff: ammo_reserve_capacity

Increases Ogryn's maximum ammo in reserve by 25%, rounds down.

Attention Seeker

Icon            

Mechanics

Blocking or Pushing Enemies Taunts them for 8s.

Pushing enemies, blocking enemy melee attacks or blocking enemy ranged attacks (shield only) forces enemies to attack Ogryn. Taunting ranged enemies forces them into melee combat (except Gunners and Reapers); affects Captains/Twins, does not affect monstrosities.

Taunted enemies are visually highlighted (orange VFX). The taunt lasts 8s; cannot be refreshed during active duration. Loyal Protector overwrites this talent's taunt duration applying its own 15s duration. When Ogryn gets disabled, the taunt effect is removed from any disabler enemies (Pox Hounds, Mutants, Trapper) that have been taunted by Ogryn before.

Bash and Blast

Icon            

Mechanics

+2.5% Ranged Damage on Melee Kill. Lasts 8s. Max Stacks 6.

stat buff: ranged_damage

Melee kills grant stacks (up to 6); can generate multiple stacks per swing; stacks last 8s and can be refreshed during active duration. Per stack, increases the damage of ranged attacks (including explosions created by Grenadier Gauntlet and Rumbler) by 2.5% (up to +15%); stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

Batter

Icon            

Mechanics

Inflict +2 Stacks of Bleed on Melee Hit. Increased to +4 on Heavy Melee Hit.

Hitting enemies with light melee attacks applies 2 stacks; heavy melee attacks apply 4 stacks of bleed; up to 16 max bleed stacks on a target. Can't apply bleed through shields. Also procs on melee special actions of Ripper Guns, Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback.

Bleed: same as other sources of bleed; lasts 1.5s; ticks every 0.5s; refreshes duration on stack application; above average armor damage modifiers across the board, low armor damage modifier against Carapace.

Bleed damage is increased by 'rending' / 'brittleness', by perks of currently wielded weapons, by Combat Stimm, and by the following buffs from:

Talents	Coward Culling (while suppressed), For the Lil'Uns , Hard Knocks , Heavyweight (against ogryns), No Hurting Friends! , Payback Time , Point-Blank Barrage , Soften Them Up , Trample , and Valuable Distraction
Blessings (melee)	if procced with weapon before or during bleed's active duration: Skullcrusher (while staggered), Slaughterer , and Tenderiser (bleed ticks don't consume stacks)
Blessings (ranged)	if procced with weapon before or during bleed's active duration: Blaze Away , Deathspitter , Explosive Offensive , Fire Frenzy , and Full Bore

Beat Them Back

Icon            

Mechanics

+15% Melee Damage on Successful Heavy Melee Attack. Lasts 5s.

stat buff: melee_damage

After hitting an enemy with a heavy melee attack, increases the damage of melee attacks by 15% for 5s; can be refreshed during active duration; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

Can also be procced by melee weapon specials of ranged weapons: The melee special actions of Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback are considered heavy attacks; the melee special action of Ripper Guns is a light attack.

Big Boom

Icon            

Mechanics

Increase explosion radius by +27.5%.

stat buff: explosion_radius_modifier

Increases the radius of explosions caused by Ogryn by 27.5%. This increases the radii of both the inner epicenter and the outer maximum of explosions.

	Epicenter Radius base	Max Radius base	Epicenter Radius w/ Big Boom	Max Radius w/ Big Boom
Bombs Away! cluster grenades	2m	8m	2.55m	10.2m

Rumbler*	2.8m	9m	3.57m	~11.48m
Power Maul** activated attacks	2.6m	7.2m	~3.32m	9.18m

* 80% Blast Radius stat
** 80% Power Output stat

This talent's increases to explosion radii stack additively with related buffs from weapon blessings Blast Zone (Rumbler) and Power Surge (Power Maul).

Bruiser

Icon            

Mechanics

100% Ability Cooldown Regeneration for 3s after you or an Ally in Coherency kill an Elite Enemy.

function: reduce_ability_cooldown_time

When an elite is killed by Ogryn or by an ally who is in coherency with Ogryn, reduces Ogryn's remaining ability cooldown by 1s per second for 3 seconds additionally to Ogryn's base ability cooldown rate of 1s per second. This results in a total cooldown reduction of 6s per proc (3s from base rate + 3x1s from talent); can be refreshed during active duration.

Procs additionally to the remaining cooldown reduction effects of Maximum Firepower (1s per second) and Concentration Stimm (3s per second). Does not interact with Combat Ability Regeneration from curios which only reduces the maximum cooldown of a combat ability.

Talent Nodes (Part II)

Brutish Strength

Icon            

Mechanics

4 Stacks of Brittleness on Push.

stat buff: rending_multiplier

Pushing enemies applies 4 rending debuff stacks ('brittleness') to enemies boosting damage against armor types Carapace, Flak, Maniac, Unyielding (including damage of explosions and DoTs). The push action does not need to stagger the enemy (procs against monstrosities, Bulwark shield, Captains/Twins void shield).

Each stack applies 2.5% rending (up to 40% max at 16 stacks), lasts 5s, and can be refreshed during active duration. Stacks additively with other rending debuffs ('brittleness'), and with rending buffs that only boost a character's own damage ('rending').

Can't Hit Me...Again

Icon            

Mechanics

+20% Damage Resistance vs Ranged for 2.5s after getting hit by a Ranged Attack. 4s Cooldown.

stat buff: ranged_damage_taken_multiplier

After taking a damaging ranged hit (including hits by Beast of Nurgle vomit, Flamers' direct fire hits, and Bombers' grenade direct impact), reduces toughness and health damage taken by ranged attacks by 20% for 2.5s before this effect goes on cooldown for 4s; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs. The damage of the ranged hit that procs the talent does not get reduced.

Concentrate

Icon            

Mechanics

+60% Sway Reduction, +20% Spread Reduction, and +15% Recoil Reduction while bracing your Ranged Weapon, but lose 0.5 Stamina per second.

stat buffs:
sway_modifier
spread_modifier
recoil_modifier

While aiming down sights and having more than 0 stamina, grants 60% sway reduction, 20% spread reduction, and 15% recoil reduction; the spread reduction stacks additively with the related buff from Run 'n' Gun weapon blessing (Kickback).

While aiming down sights, drains 0.5 stamina per second. The stamina cost reduction buff from Celerity Stimm reduces this drain effect. When stamina reaches 0, the talent loses its effect.

Crunch!

Icon            

Mechanics

Up to +15% Damage bonus & +30% Impact bonus to your charged Melee Attack, based on charge time.

stat buffs:
melee_damage
melee_impact_modifier

While charging heavy melee attacks, grants stacks (up to 4) every 0.25s or every 0.2s (Pickaxes only). The intervals in which stacks are generated are unaffected by attack speed buffs. Per stack, increases melee damage by 10% and melee stagger strength by 10%; stacks additively with other related damage buffs and stagger buffs (Impactful, Slam, and related weapon blessings), and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

Dedicated Practice

Icon            

Mechanics

+20% Weapon Swap Speed.

stat buff: wield_speed

Increases wield speed by 20%. This reduces the time of wielding actions when swapping item slots (weapons, grenades, stimms, med packs, ammo crates, books, etc).

Objectively speaking, the effectiveness of this talent is limited because most of Ogryn's weapons do not have excessive wield times. Best use case is for Heavy Stubbers and Twin-Linked Stubber Mk V.

Delight in Destruction

Icon            

Mechanics

+8% Damage Resistance per Bleeding Enemy in Melee range. Stacks 4 times.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

Reduces both toughness and health damage taken by 8% per bleeding enemy (up to 32%). Considers bleed stacks applied to enemies within 8m; checks for bleeding enemies every second. Stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.

Dominate

Icon            

Mechanics

+10% Rending for 10s on Elite Kill.

stat buff: rending_multiplier

Killing an elite grants 10% rending to all attacks for 10s boosting damage against armor types Carapace, Flak, Maniac, Unyielding (including damage of explosions and DoTs like bleed and burn applied by Ogryn); can be refreshed during active duration. Only affects Ogryn's own damage. Stacks additively with other rending buffs ('rending') and with rending debuffs that are applied to enemies ('brittleness').

Fire Away

Icon            

Mechanics

Your Explosions apply 1 Stack(s) of Burn. 2 Stack(s) if close range. Max Stacks 8.

Damaging explosions created by Ogryn apply burn to enemies. Targets within the epicenter radius of the explosion receive 2 stacks of burn, targets between the epicenter radius and the outer maximum radius of the explosion receive 1 stack of burn; up to 8 max burn stacks on a target. Can apply burn through Bulwark shield, cannot through Captains void shield.

Burn: same as other sources of burn; lasts 4s; ticks every 0.5s; refreshes duration on stack application; high armor damage modifiers across the board, very low armor damage modifier against Carapace.

	Epicenter Radius base	Max Radius base	Epicenter Radius w/ Big Boom	Max Radius w/ Big Boom
Bombs Away! cluster grenades	2m	8m	2.55m	10.2m
Frag Bomb	2m	16m	2.55m	20.4m
Grenadier Gauntlet* alt fire	1.5m	5.4m	~1.91m	~6.89m

Per stack, reduces toughness and health damage taken from melee attacks by 4%; the buff stacks multiplicatively with itself, up to ~18.5% melee damage reduction at max stacks (1-0.96⁵=0.1846), and with other damage reduction buffs.

For the Lil'Uns

Icon            

Mechanics

On Ally getting Toughness Broken, gain +10% Strength, and +25% Toughness Damage Reduction for 10s. 30s Cooldown.

Frenzied Blows

Icon            

Mechanics

+2.5% Melee Attack Speed on Chained Hit for 5s. Stacks 5 times.

stat buff: melee_attack_speed

Chained hits grant stacks (up to 5); generates one stack per swing; stacks last 5s and can be refreshed during active duration. Per stack, increases melee weapon attack animation speed by 2.5% (up to +12.5%); stacks additively with related buff from Indomitable / Bull Rush, Just Getting Started, Spray and Slay, and Celerity Stimm.

'Chained hit' refers to the continuous chaining of, in this talent's case, at least two attacks against targets. Can be any target, does not need to be the same target. The first stack is generated on the second hit; also procs on non-damaging hits against Bulwark shield or Captains/Twins void shield. Missing an attack clears the current chain and removes all stacks.

Furious

Icon            

Mechanics

For each Enemy you hit during the same Melee Attack, gain +2.5% Damage on your next Melee Attack.

stat buff: damage_taken_modifier

Successfully staggering enemies with melee attacks or pushes applies a debuff to enemies that increases their damage taken by 15% for 5s; can be refreshed during active duration. Does not stack with the same talent from another Ogryn. Can also be applied with melee special actions of Ripper Guns, Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback.

Implacable

Icon            

Mechanics

+15% Damage Reduction while charging Melee Attacks.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

Reduces both toughness and health damage taken while winding up melee attacks; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs. 'Windup' refers to a specific action kind in weapon profiles, it is the 'charging or ready up movement' animation before an actual swing is executed.

Technically, the talent does indeed proc every time a weapon attack is in its windup phase, light attacks included. But windup windows can be very short (especially for light attacks), so the talent works most efficiently during the longer windup windows of heavy melee attacks. Does currently not have a HUD icon.

Keep Shooting

Icon            

Mechanics

+15% Reload Speed when reloading an Empty Clip.

stat buff: reload_speed

If current ammo in clip is 0, reload animation speed is increased by 15%; stacks additively with reload speed buff from Pacemaker, Point-Blank Barrage, the small reload speed node, weapon perks and blessings, and Celerity Stimm.

Per stack, grants 1.5% additional crit chance to all attacks that can crit; stacks additively with other sources of crit chance.

Mobile Emplacement

Icon            

Mechanics

You take 20% reduced Damage while bracing a Ranged Weapon.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

Reduces both toughness and health damage taken by 20% while braced; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs. 'Braced' refers to an action keyword in ranged weapon profiles. Using a ranged weapon's alt fire, like zooming or firing when zoomed in, activates the buff.

No Hurting Friends!

Icon            

Mechanics

+2.5% Strength on Damage Taken by you or Allies in Coherency. 5 Max Stacks. Lasts 10s. +15% Toughness Damage Reduction on Max Stacks.

stat buffs:
power_level_modifier
toughness_damage_taken_multiplier

Whenever Ogryn or an ally takes damage to toughness or health, grants stacks (up to 5); stacks last for 10s and can be refreshed during active duration. Coherency is not required, procs on ally damage taken at any range. Per stack, increases the power level of melee and ranged attacks, explosions, and DoTs by 2.5%; stacks additively with other power level buffs, and multiplicatively with damage buffs. 'Power level buffs' increase the base power of attacks which benefits damage, stagger, and cleave (where applicable).

Additionally, when reaching and while maintaining 5 stacks, reduces toughness damage taken by 15%; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.

No Pushover

Icon            

Mechanics

Your Pushes have +250% Stagger. Can only trigger once every 8s.

stat buff: push_impact_modifier

If not on cooldown, increases the stagger strength of pushes by 250%. Allows the push action to stagger all enemies except for Mutants, monstrosties, and Twins (Captains only without void shield).

No Stopping Me!

Icon            

Mechanics

Become uninterruptible while charging Heavy Melee Attacks. Remove 100% of Heavy Melee Attack Movement Speed penalties.

buff keyword: uninterruptible

stat buff: weapon_action_movespeed_reduction_multiplier

During the windup phases of light and heavy melee attacks, removes the movement speed penalty (also while sprinting) and makes any of Ogryn's melee attack actions uninterruptible so that they cannot be canceled as a result of hit reactions (e.g. stuns). 'Windup' refers to a specific action kind in weapon profiles, it is the 'charging or ready up movement' animation before an actual swing is executed.

In regard to the uninterruptibility, the effectiveness of this talent is limited (mostly because several enemy attacks, especially ranged attacks, have been nerfed over time in regard to stuns): Currently, the only Ogryn weapons that can still be interrupted during windup phases are Cleavers and Pickaxes if the enemy attack is 'strong' enough, e.g. by melee attacks of Bulwark, Crusher, Mauler (overhead only), or by ranged attacks of Shotgunners and Captains (shotgun blasts).

Talent Nodes (Part V)

Pacemaker

Icon            

Mechanics

Hitting 3 or more Enemies with a single Attack grants +15% reload speed on your next Reload.

stat buff: reload_speed

When hitting at least 3 enemies within 0.5s, increases reload animation speed by 15% for the next reload action; stacks additively with reload speed buff from Keep Shooting, Point-Blank Barrage, the small reload speed node, weapon perks and blessings, and Celerity Stimm. Can proc on melee and ranged attacks, pushes, explosions, and staggering abilities (Loyal Protector, Pained Outburst).

stat buff: damage

Increases any damage by 15% for 5s; can be refreshed during active duration. Stacks additively with other damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

Procs on taking a melee hit, on blocking a melee hit, and on successfully dodging enemy melee or ranged attacks (except Gunners, Reaper, Sniper), and disabler attacks (Pox Hound jump, Trapper net, Mutant grab). 'Successful dodge' means dodging an enemy attack that is locked on the player with an accordingly timed dodge or sliding action.

Pumped Up

Icon            

Mechanics

+15% Damage Resistance while above 75% Stamina.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

While above 75% of maximum stamina, reduces both toughness and health damage taken by 15%; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.

Mechanics

+15% Ranged Damage for 8s on reload.

stat buff: ranged_damage

After reloading, increases the damage of ranged attacks (including explosions created by Grenadier Gauntlet and Rumbler) by 15% for 8s; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

The forced reload of Point-Blank Barrage procs this talent (even if the weapon's clip is full).

Simple Minded

Icon            

Mechanics

+30% Corruption Resistance.

stat buff: corruption_taken_multiplier

Reduces corruption damage taken by any enemy source that is dealing corruption damage, including Poxburster explosion, toxic gas, Poxwalker melee attacks, Pox Hound pounce, Beast of Nurgle vomit/slime/consumed, Daemonhost, grimoires, etc; stacks multiplicatively with Corruption Resistance from curios, and other damage reduction buffs.

Slam

Icon            

Mechanics

+25% Impact bonus on Melee Attacks. Staggering an enemy with a Melee Attack replenishes 5% Stamina. 1s Cooldown.

stat buff: melee_impact_modifier

function: add_stamina_percent

This talent does two things:

(1) Increases melee stagger strength by 25%; stacks additively with Crunch!, Impactful, and other related stagger buffs from weapon blessings, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

(2) Hitting enemies with melee and ranged attacks or pushing enemies replenishes 5% of maximum stamina; has an internal cooldown of 1s. The target does not need to be staggered.

Smash 'Em!

Icon            

Mechanics

Replenish 5% Toughness after hitting a single Enemy with a Melee Attack. Increased to 15% Toughness if it is a Heavy Attack.

function: recover_percentage_toughness

Hitting exactly one enemy with a light melee attack replenishes 5% of maximum toughness; for heavy melee attacks, replenishes 15% of maximum toughness instead. The melee special actions of Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback are considered heavy attacks; the melee special action of Ripper Guns is a light attack.

If the hit enemy dies, the toughness amount replenished from the talent is added to Ogryn's base 5% of maximum toughness gained on melee kill. For example, with 90 max toughness, hitting one target with a heavy melee attack and if the attacked enemy dies, Ogryn would replenish 90x(0.15+0.05)=18 toughness.

The effectiveness of this toughness replenishment is affected by Feel No Pain (including Toughest!), Stay Close!, Too Stubborn to Die, and certain player debuffs like toxic gas.

Soften Them Up

Icon            

Mechanics

Enemies damaged by your Melee Attacks take +15% more Damage for 5 seconds.

stat buff: damage_taken_modifier

Damaging melee attacks apply a debuff to enemies that increases their damage taken by 15% for 5s; can be refreshed during active duration. Does not stack with the same talent from another Ogryn. Can also be applied with melee special actions of Ripper Guns, Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback.

The debuff stacks additively with the related damage taken debuff from Hard Knocks, the Pickaxe special action (+10%), and multiplicatively with Valuable Distraction. During calculation, stacks multiplicatively with damage buffs and power level buffs.

Spray and Slay

Icon            

Mechanics

+15% Melee Damage and +7.5% Melee Attack Speed for 6s after emptying your Clip.

stat buffs:
melee_damage
melee_attack_speed

When ammo in clip reaches 0, does two things for 6s:

(1) Increases the damage of melee attacks by 15%; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

(2) Increases melee weapon attack animation speed by 7.5%; stacks additively with related buff from Frenzied Blows, Indomitable / Bull Rush, Just Getting Started, and Celerity Stimm.

Talent Nodes (Part VI)

Steady Grip

Icon            

Mechanics

+12.5% Toughness Regeneration while bracing your Ranged Weapon.

function: recover_percentage_toughness

Replenishes 12.5% of maximum toughness per second while braced; does not interact with coherency toughness regeneration. The effectiveness of this toughness replenishment is affected by Feel No Pain (including Toughest!), Stay Close!, Too Stubborn to Die, and certain player debuffs like toxic gas.

'Braced' refers to an action keyword in ranged weapon profiles. Using a weapon's alt fire, like zooming or firing when zoomed in, activates the buff.

Strike True

Icon            

Mechanics

+10% Melee Weakspot Strength

stat buff: melee_weakspot_power_modifier

Increases the power level of melee attacks against weakspots; also applies to melee special actions of ranged weapons. Stacks additively with other related power level buffs, and multiplicatively with damage buffs.

'Power level buffs' increase the base power of attacks which benefits damage, stagger, and cleave (where applicable).

Strongman

Icon            

Mechanics

+10% Damage Resistance on Elite Kill or Special Kill. Lasts 5s.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

Killing an elite or special reduces toughness and health damage taken by 10% for 5s; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.

The Best Defence

Icon            

Mechanics

Replenish 5% Toughness after hitting multiple Enemies with a single Melee Attack. This is increased to 15% on Heavy Melee Attack.

function: recover_percentage_toughness

Hitting at least two or more enemies with a light melee attack replenishes 5% of maximum toughness; for heavy melee attacks, replenishes 15% of maximum toughness instead. The melee special actions of Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback are considered heavy attacks; the melee special action of Ripper Guns is a light attack.

If one of the hit enemies dies, the toughness amount replenished from the talent is added to Ogryn's base 5% of maximum toughness gained on melee kill. For example, with 140 max toughness, hitting five targets with a heavy melee attack and if two of the attacked targets die, Ogryn would replenish 140x(0.15+0.05+0.05)=35 toughness.

The effectiveness of this toughness replenishment is affected by Feel No Pain (including Toughest!), Stay Close!, Too Stubborn to Die, and certain player debuffs like toxic gas.

Too Stubborn to Die

Icon            

Mechanics

+100% Toughness Replenishment while below 33% Health.

stat buff: toughness_replenish_modifier

When below 33% of maximum health, doubles the amount of any toughness replenished by melee kills, talents, and select weapon blessings (only Momentum); stacks additively with related buff from Feel No Pain (including Toughest!), Stay Close!, and with the toughness replenishment debuff while in toxic gas. Does not apply to coherency toughness regeneration.

Towering Presence

Icon            

Mechanics

+50% Coherency radius.

stat buff: coherency_radius_modifier

Increases Ogryn's base coherency radius of 8m by 50% to 12m.

Unbreakable

Icon            

Mechanics

Your Perfect Blocks can block all Melee Attacks. On Perfect Block gain +20% Melee Damage on next Attack.

buff keyword: block_unblockable

stat buff: melee_damage

On perfect block, this talent does two things:

(1) Allows Ogryn to block any melee attack, including 'unblockable' attacks (e.g. Crusher or Mauler overheads, Plague Ogryn stomp, etc). This prevents any bleedthrough damage that would have happened otherwise; stamina damage taken is unaffected. Note that Ogryn's Battle Maul & Shield can block 'unblockable' attacks by default (regular blocking action and weapon special action).

(2) Increases the damage of melee attacks by 20% for 5s; can be refreshed during active duration; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

'Perfect block' refers to perfect blocking. This is a blocking state which requires a successfully executed block action within 0.3s against an incoming melee attack. If the character has been blocking for longer than 0.3s when the to-be-blocked attack hits, it is not a perfect block. By default, a perfect block has no benefit. It is considered as a proc condition.

Unstoppable Momentum

Icon            

Mechanics

+20% Movement Speed for 3s on Ranged Kill.

stat buff: movement_speed

Killing an enemy with a ranged attack (including rock or grenade projectile direct impact kills) increases movement speed by 20% for 3s; can be refreshed during active duration.

Stacks additively with movement speed buffs from Indomitable / Bull Rush and Get Stuck In, and multiplicatively with movement speed penalty reductions from Point-Blank Barrage and the Roaring Advance weapon blessing.

Won't Give In

Icon            

Mechanics

+20% Damage Reduction for each Knocked Down or Incapacitated Ally within 20 metres.

stat buff: damage_taken_multiplier

Reduces both toughness and health damage taken by 20% per knocked down or incapacitated ally within 20m. Stacks linearly with itself: 1 incapacitated ally=20% damage reduction, 2 allies=40%, 3 allies=60%; stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.

'Incapacitated' includes: netted (by Trapper), pounced (by Pox Hounds), grabbed (by Chaos Spawn, Daemonhost, Mutants), consumed (by Beast of Nurgle), hanging from ledge, and waiting for rescue after respawn.

Small Nodes

	Toughness Boost +X Toughness. stat buff: toughness Adds 15 or 25 toughness to Ogryn's base maximum toughness of 75 thereby increasing Ogryn's max toughness. Stacks additively with other small toughness nodes. Current max toughness is multiplied by the toughness percentage buffs from curios. For example, at 90 max toughness (Ogryn's base 75 and one +15 toughness node) with one +17% toughness curio with a +5% toughness perk, Ogryn's max toughness of 90 is increased by 90x(0.17+0.05)=19.8 to 109.8 toughness (HUD rounds up: 110). A character's maximum toughness is the base value that is used in toughness replenished calculations of most talents and blessings. Availability on tree: 2 (+25 toughness) 1 (+15 toughness)

Keystone Nodes (Part I)

	Heavy Hitter +3% Melee Damage for 7.5s on Melee Attack Hit. Stacks 8 times. Gain 2 Stacks on Heavy Attack Hit. stat buff: melee_damage Hitting enemies with melee attacks grants stacks (up to 8); light attacks generate 1 stack, heavy attacks generate 2 stacks; always generates either 1 stack or 2 stacks per swing regardless of how many enemies have been hit. Stacks last 7.5s and can be refreshed during active duration. Per stack, increases melee damage by 3%; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs. The melee special actions of Grenadier Gauntlet (melee part), Rumbler, Twin-Linked Stubbers, and Kickback are considered heavy attacks; the melee special action of Ripper Guns is a light attack.
	Don't Feel a Thing Heavy Hitter also grants +1.5% Toughness Damage Reduction for each stack. stat buff: toughness_damage_taken_multiplier Per stack of Heavy Hitter, reduces toughness damage taken by 1.5% (up to 12%); stacks multiplicatively with other damage reduction buffs.
	Just Getting Started While Heavy Hitter is at 8 Stacks, gain +10% Attack Speed. stat buff: attack_speed When reaching and while maintaining 8 stacks of Heavy Hitter, additionally increases attack animation speed of both ranged and melee weapons by 10% for 7.5s; can be refreshed during active duration. Stacks additively with related buff from Frenzied Blows , Indomitable / Bull Rush , Point-Blank Barrage , Spray and Slay , and Celerity Stimm . Does currently not have a HUD icon.
	Unstoppable Heavy Hitter also grants +15% Toughness replenished from Melee Kills for each stack. stat buff: toughness_melee_replenish Per stack of Heavy Hitter, increases Ogryn's base 5% of maximum toughness gained on melee kill by 15% (up to +120%). Stacks 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Kill Toughness% 5% 5.75% 6.5% 7.25% 8% 8.75% 9.5% 10.25% 11% For example, with 160 max toughness and 6 stacks of Heavy Hitter, Ogryn replenishes 160x(0.05x(1+0.15x6))=15.2 toughness on killing a single enemy. The effectiveness of this toughness replenishment is affected by Stay Close! , Too Stubborn to Die , and certain player debuffs like toxic gas.
	Great Cleaver Heavy Hitter also grants +15% Cleave for each stack. stat buff: max_melee_hit_mass_attack_modifier Per stack of Heavy Hitter, increases the maximum hit mass limit of melee attacks by 15% (up to +120%), thereby allowing melee attacks to cleave more enemies; stacks additively with related buff from weapon blessings Devastating Strike , Savage Sweep , and Wrath , and multiplicatively with power level buffs. Hit mass & cleave: Every enemy has a specific hit mass, and every attack has a specific hit mass budget. In order to successfully cleave an enemy, an attack's (remaining) hit mass budget is required to be greater than the hit mass of the enemy that is to be cleaved. For example, the Heavy1 of the Cleaver Mk VI has a max hit mass limit of 28.1 (with an 80% Cleave Damage stat). It can, on body hits, cleave two Scab Maulers (10 hit mass each) and hit a third one. With 10 stacks of Heavy Hitter, the Heavy1 now has a max hit mass limit of 28.1+28.1x1.2=61.82 which means that it can now cleave six Scab Maulers (6x10=60 total hit mass required) and hit a seventh one. It cannot cleave the seventh Scab Mauler, however, since this would require a max hit mass limit greater than 7x10=70. Note that Carapace armor cannot be cleaved by default. This talent does not allow to bypass Carapace's built-in aborts_attack mechanic.
	Impactful Heavy Hitter also grants +10% Impact for each stack. stat buff: melee_impact_modifier Per stack of Heavy Hitter, increases melee stagger strength by 10% (up to +80%); stacks additively with Crunch! , Slam , and other related stagger buffs from weapon blessings , and multiplicatively with power level buffs.

	Feel No Pain You are blessed with 10 Stacks of Feel No Pain. Each Stack grants +2.5% Toughness Replenishment and +2.5% Damage Reduction. Taking Damage removes one stack. Stacks are restored every 3s. stat buffs: toughness_replenish_modifier toughness_damage_taken_multiplier Grants 10 stacks of Feel No Pain. Every instance of damage taken removes one stack of Feel No Pain (1s internal cooldown). Regenerates 1 stack every 3s; does not regen stacks while disabled or downed. Per stack of Feel No Pain, does two things: (1) Increases the amount of any toughness replenished by melee kills, talents, and select weapon blessings (only Momentum ) by 2.5%; stacks additively with related buff from Stay Close! , Too Stubborn to Die , and with the toughness replenishment debuff while in toxic gas . Does not apply to coherency toughness regeneration. (2) Reduces toughness damage taken by 2.5%. The buff stacks multiplicatively with itself, up to ~22.4% toughness damage reduction at max stacks (1-0.975¹⁰=0.2236), and with other damage reduction buffs.
	Pained Outburst When Feel No Pain reaches 5 stacks or below, you push back Enemies and Replenish +50% Toughness. This effect can occur once every 30s. function: recover_percentage_toughness If not on cooldown and if five or more stacks of Feel No Pain are removed, replenishes 50% of maximum toughness and creates an explosion at Ogryn's location that deals no damage but staggers surrounding enemies. The effectiveness of this toughness replenishment is affected by Feel No Pain (including Toughest! ), Stay Close! , Too Stubborn to Die , and certain player debuffs like toxic gas. When Ogryn is disabled (e.g. pounced, netted, etc), losing five or more stacks of Feel No Pain triggers the staggering explosion and the toughness replenishment. This also allows Ogryn to free himself from Pox Hounds. When Ogryn gets downed, the current stack amount is set to 0 which also procs the staggering explosion; however, this does not proc the toughness replenishment. The explosion has a radius of 2.5m and staggers all enemies except for Mutants, monstrosities, and Captains/Twins.
	Toughest! Feel No Pain grants +2.5% Toughness Replenishment per stack. stat buff: toughness_replenish_modifier Doubles Feel No Pain's increase to the amount of any toughness replenished by melee kills, talents, and select weapon blessings (only Momentum ) from 2.5% to 5% per stack; stacks additively with related buff from Stay Close! , Too Stubborn to Die , and with the toughness replenishment debuff while in toxic gas . Does not apply to coherency toughness regeneration.
	Strongest! Pushing Enemies restores one stack of Feel No Pain. Allows pushes to generate stacks of Feel No Pain. Always generates 1 stack per push action regardless of how many enemies have been pushed.

Keystone Nodes (Part III)

	Burst Limiter Override 15% chance of triggering Lucky Bullet and not consuming Ammo when making Ranged Attacks. In Addition, gain +2% Ranged Damage on Ranged Kills. Max Stacks 10. Lasts 10s. stat buffs: ranged_damage ranged_attack_speed Enables every shooting action to have a 15% chance of not consuming ammo (Lucky Bullet). For Ripper Guns, the left-click shooting action entails multiple shots fired per action; none of the shots consume ammo on proc. For the remaining weapons, the talent procs per single shot fired. Additionally, killing enemies with ranged attacks grants stacks (up to 10); can generate multiple stacks when cleaving or on explosions; stacks last for 10s and can be refreshed during active duration. Per kill stack, does two things: (1) Increases the damage of ranged attacks (including explosions created by Grenadier Gauntlet and Rumbler) by 2%; stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs. (2) Increases ranged weapon attack animation speed by 1.5%; stacks additively with related buff from Heat of Battle , Point-Blank Barrage , and Celerity Stimm .
	Back Off! On Killing Melee Attack gain +10% chance to trigger Lucky Bullet on next Shot. Stacks 10 times. stat buff: leadbelcher_chance_bonus Killing an enemy with a melee attack grants stacks (up to 10); generates one stack per swing regardless of how many enemies have been killed; stacks last until consumed by Lucky Bullet proc. Per stack, adds a 10% chance for Lucky Bullet to trigger; with the base proc chance being 15%, this effectively guarantees a Lucky Bullet proc at 9 stacks.
	Maximum Firepower +100% Ability Cooldown Reduction for 4s when Lucky Bullet triggers. function: reduce_ability_cooldown_time Additionally to Ogryn's base ability cooldown rate of 1s per second, reduces the remaining ability cooldown by 1s per second for 4 seconds when Burst Limiter Override procs. This results in a total cooldown reduction of 8s per proc (4s from base rate + 4x1s from talent); can be refreshed during active duration. Procs additionally to the remaining cooldown reduction effects of Bruiser (1s per second) and Concentration Stimm (3s per second). Does not interact with Combat Ability Regeneration from curios which only reduces the maximum cooldown of a combat ability.
	Good Shootin' The shot that triggers Lucky Bullet is a guaranteed Critical (if it Hits). Makes every shot that procs Lucky Bullet be a critical hit. If a shooting action entails multiple shots (Ripper Guns and Twin-Linked Stubbers left-clicks) and if one of these shots crits, then all subsequent shots of that action will be converted into crit shots. For Twin-Linked Stubbers' alt fire (full auto), any crit shot granted by this talent procs the guaranteed crit sequence of 6 shots.
	Heat of Battle Burst Limiter Override also grants +1.5% Fire Rate per Stack. stat buff: ranged_attack_speed Per kill stack, increases ranged weapon attack animation speed by 1.5%; stacks additively with related buff from Burst Limiter Override (base effect), Point-Blank Barrage , and Celerity Stimm .
	Bulletstorm +15% Ranged Damage to you and Allies in Coherency on Lucky Bullet. Lasts 8s. stat buff: ranged_damage When Lucky Bullet procs, increases the damage of ranged attacks by 15% (including explosions created by Grenadier Gauntlet and Rumbler) for 8s for Ogryn and allies who are in coherency with Ogryn; can be refreshed during active duration. Allies get the buff as long as they are in coherency when the buff is triggered. Stacks additively with other related damage buffs, and multiplicatively with power level buffs. Does not stack with the same talent from another Ogryn.

Yes, the target should die instantly no matter the hit zone. When does it fail, which enemy? Any footage?

[Rymd]

Does the rock instant kill override means if hit anywhere on the body with the rock equals to an instant kill? Because sometimes it fails to do that and I'm left confused.

[kuli]

Neither do those debuffs stack between multiple players nor does the aura.

[HURT AND HATE]

Ogrin buff damage vs Havoc boss + 400% dmg.
I would be grateful if you could analyze and comment on its performance.
there is a doubt about the breakthrough and 2 similar blessings

That's pretty funny, but it makes the talent pretty good so I won't complain. Thanks for looking into it

@a bear
Apparently, the value is used multiple times during calculation as part of the weapon toughness template and the base toughness template. The effective value is ~13.04% of max toughness per second as a result of it.

[a bear]

correction for Steady Grip: It says 5% per second here, but it's closer to 15% per second in game. Don't know the exact value and I don't know how to find out in the code. I'm curious to know how the tooltip saying "5% toughness regeneration" works out to 15% per second though.

[kuli]

Fixed.

Good Shootin'
"...then all subsEquent shots of that..."

More Burst Limiter Overrides!
"Increases Burst Limiter Override's base chance of 5%..." 8%?

[kuli]

The weapon special of the Grenadier Gauntlet consists of two parts: a melee hit and an explosion that spawns on the melee hit. The melee hit does receive the increased damage.
