About the awarded wargear, with Captain killed more than 2.500 and nothing,got 350 kills, nothing. Man really had high hopes for these items. Is this dawn of war chaos rising and dawn of war 2 Last stand, or retribution?

@BenzKA

I’ve had moderate success in TBC with this:

Plasma Cannon
Armour of Resilience/Armour of Fortitude
Rite of Fortitude
Parable of the Stalwart Brother/Rite of Swift Victory
Terror of Xenos
Dreadnought Drop Pod

I haven’t tried this once since I got Retribution, but in the base game Rite of Swift Victory would let you move without having to first teardown your weapon, so it gave you some more mobility. Terror of Xenos and the Dreadnought help keep melee foes off of you.

The reason I say “moderate success” is because it really depends on what your teammates do. I found it worked best when holed up in one of the little alleys with your teammates, since then all the enemies would be packed close together and your weapon would take out huge chunks of them with every shot.

On the other hand, with your low mobility (even with Rite of Swift Victory), if your position is overrun and Terror of Xenos doesn’t affect all your enemies…you’re likely to die.

The Lightning Claw and the Thunder Hammer are the best examples in the game of how imbalanced The Last Stand actually is. The Lightning Claw is an AMAZING piece of kit, possibly the best weapon in the game, capable of eating entire squads in seconds, while the Thunder Hammer is basically worthless. Even its ability to stun vehicles and monstrous creatures doesn’t make up for the fact that it’s a 2-handed weapon (the Captain gets great off-hand items) with mediocre DPS.

@Aylin From what I’ve found the Thunder Hammer generally isn’t very good (or even worth using) on Colosseum. On Anvil, however, is where it really shines. The damage may not be as high as, say, the Lightning Claw, but it will give you significantly more standing power because of the vehicle stun; and, contrary to what you might think, the stun applies to monstrous creatures and their ilk as well. Imagine my surprise when I was on Anvil, running for my life from the Avatar of Khaine when the Captain jumps behind him, smacks him with the hammer and turns this engine of death into a punching bag.

Anyone have a good build for the hammer? I unlocked it today but it doesn’t seem to be as good as the Lightning Claws…
