Unlocked and Loaded update brought lots of new blessings to the table for Power Maul and this build enjoys the spoils. Nightmares and Visions brought the new Ogryn skill tree, and so the build is updated for the modern era of being able to knock things on their behinds. Skullcrusher is a classic and a game changer for debuffs, and Supercharge lets the team build off of your offense. If you want better crowd performance or the team has ways of doing brittleness stacks, Brutal Momentum is a great pick too. Opportunist, Power Surge, and Thunderstrike are great other picks; Perfect Strike if you trust in your critical hits if doing a hybrid crit build that goes bottom right tree.
Big Friendly Rock offer a precision Elite takedown tool when the Lorenz Mk V Kickback is just out of range, but now that the Kickback is a little more buff and Ogryn has more toughness, the Frag Bomb works good too. Kickback is mostly on Dreg Rager and Chaos Spawn duty since Power Maul can handle everything else, and if someone's too far to swing at it's a good sit down gun. Original recommendation was Inspiring Barrage and Full Bore for blasting away when you can't melee, while the offensive option for crowds and turbo charging Heavy Hitter stacks is Blaze Away and Pierce (which the slaps with the Kickback count as heavy melees to slam on bleed stacks and Blaze Away stacks). If there's no other Ogryn in the party you can run boxes and Soften Them Up for more crowd control and team damage buffs, though you lose the precision of rock counter-sniping. Kickback can one shot mutants so feel free to give them the business if out of rocks. Nightmares and Visions update shuffled the tree big crowd shots can be done if you route to bottom right tree. 180+ toughness and 400+ health is a robust Ogryn and the melee nodes will keep you topped off as you hack away at beasties of Nurgle.
