NRGaa's Rotten Armor ogryn build
 Ogryn Build - Warhammer 40k: Darktide 

Hello, Gamers!
So Rotten Armour is back and ppl are struggling with it, so I decided to make a quick anti Rotten Armour guide/build.

Rotten Armour hardest part is Damage Reduction, which will limit our weapon selection very hard. 

Damage Reduction stages: 

• 100-90% HP unit recieves 75% DR.
• 90-75% HP unit recieves 50% DR.
• 75-50% HP unit recieves 25% DR.
• 50-25% HP unit recieves 0% DR.
• 25-0% HP unit recieves 25% Extra damage.

What things will do great vs Rotten Armour:

• Thunderous debuffing enemies while they have high hp, so they will die fast when we manage to get through that initial DR.
• Skullcrusher huge debuff for incoming damage, which works during hard CC.
• Attack speed.
• Heavy CC/Impact weapons with debuffs.

Things to avoid during Rotten Armour missions:

Excessive pacing. Someone should be always be on a backline duty killing horde and specials, so party will always have space to fall back when armor boys will show up.

Hard hitting slow weapons and builds. Anything with Thrust and slow attack speed. Branx Mk Ia Delver's Pickaxe, Karsolas Mk II Delver's Pickaxe, Brute-Brainer Mk V Latrine Shovel, Crucis Mk II Thunder Hammer, Maccabian Mk IV Duelling Sword with Thrust.

Cleavers. This weapon class just lacks good blessings versus that modifier.

Weapons:
