Alright, So this is not a serious issue in the game. Honestly, it's really not but I bet I'm not the only who thinks it would fit nicely. We need to have the black orks have some kind of system where they get bigger the more they level, They should be the only ork class to do this. They need to be big and mean! It's just a small cosmetic touch which would really allow players to know of the destruction faction who's the big boy and to get the hell outta his way. To add this sense of terror on the battlefield when a giant black ork comes stomping through the line. It would also put sense into the black orks being warbosses due to their spec trees.
Now I'm not saying the game is bad for not having this, No. Return Of Reckoning is doing a great job reviving a game which most of the newer generation never got to experience, an MMO which just shows the brutal world of warhammer fantasy. But I really do think that the black orks need to be bigger, it's quite hard to distinguish sometimes between a brawler or a black ork. The black orks need some kind of distinguishing trait that only they have and I believe it should be their size and once they reach a certain level, the growth will stop growing. This will also help figure out who's high level and who's not.
I also want this to happen because I'm ork bias sense I've always been intrigued by the ork culture and love doing my own version of those cockney faced gits. But one important thing in the ork culture is that the black orks are the biggest of the boyz and the meanest and when orks be fighting, they get bigger and stronger! I'd love to hear other peoples opinion on this cosmetic idea, I always love hearing other peoples ideas and thoughts.
Also one last reason I want this, BECAUSE I PLAY A GODDAMN WARBOSS!

Re: Da Black Orc Boyz Need To Be Bigga!
All Orcs, (spelled Orcs in Fantasy) get bigger as they get older, and much like their 40k counterparts plateau until they best another Orc that is lording over them, where they differ is how much this advancement gives them and how fast they grow. The difference betten Boy>Big Un>Boss> Big Boss is a a matter of inches each step up and Orcs in fantasy take longer to gestate and grow.GeneralOrrick wrote:Spoiler:
This makes it so that a Warboss is huge compared to a Boy but only a bit larger than the Big Bosses around him. Black Orcs start bigger and meaner than other orcs, but are comparable to big'uns in size. The other thing to keep in mind is this:
In WAR you are a Black Orc Boy, attaining Boss-dom @ RR60 and big bossdom at RR 90+, You never challenge your betters to take their place, so you cannot advance in size or rank in the way that is important to Orc Kulture.
As this game will only go to RR 80 you will only ever attain bossdom, and the size difference between a boss and Boy is minuscule and honestly you would hardly be able to tell the difference. BUT by the time you get to RR60 you usually can wear armour that makes you LOOK larger and much more deserving of that boss title.
Lastly, the Black Orc is already unwieldy when it comes to his size, the fact he is already larger than everyone else is very noticeable.

Re: Da Black Ork Boyz Need To Be Bigga!
Black Orcs are already big guys.
Ever tried rushing through a broken keep door when there is at least 2 Black Orcs trying to get through at the same time? Gets pretty messy.
That being said, it would be cool if they were a tad bigger to make sure that Choppas know their place.
On a slight side note, does anyone know the name that this BO armor used to go by? Mainly the shoulders/gloves/belt and helmet.

Well even then, Black Orks are actually quite hard at times in a fight to know who's the big boy and who's not. I've noticed countless times while playing when healers are trying to do their job and heal the tank, sometimes they mistake a brawler for one. Black Orks honestly do deserve some kind of size increase, I wouldn't mind a little bit of unwieldiness due to their big size, just adds a challenge to gameplay when playing a big guy but also give players that feeling of GET THE HELL OUTTA MY WAY! IM THE BIG BOY!

Re: Da Black Ork Boyz Need To Be Bigga!
Now, I will say one thing about the black ork is playing the role, I remember when I literally began shouting and commanding around players, building up a waaagh in front of a order base like a true ork and storming the front doors. I had a whole army of players under my control during that moment and it felt amazing. It made me feel like a true warboss.

Re: Da Black Ork Boyz Need To Be Bigga!
It's easy to tell who is the boss, it's the guy in the ridiculously sized armor.If you played on live you know that a Sov or Warlord Black Orc stands out. Mastery Paths have no bearing on whether you are actually a Boss. Black Orcs are already the biggest.GeneralOrrick wrote:Well even then, Black Orks are actually quite hard at times in a fight to know who's the big boy and who's not.

Bossing people about is in true orc fashion, and a lot of fun, just remember there is always a bigger orc to put you in your place. When it comes to WAR/RoR that Warboss is Grumlok, he is your boss, and youz best listen gud, cause he iz not one for any boy bigger den his britches not in his WAAAGH!GeneralOrrick wrote:Now, I will say one thing about the black ork is playing the role, I remember when I literally began shouting and commanding around players, building up a waaagh in front of a order base like a true ork and storming the front doors.

Re: Da Black Ork Boyz Need To Be Bigga!
When I played awhile ago, I never ever saw Sov Or Warlord. Now that being said, maybe I was not in the right place. But in lower levels, I've seen people get confused. But the only reason why I suggested this is because of the fact that it's for cosmetic reasons. I remember asking a question to one of the return of reckoning team in the past and even they said they might do that! Hell! Even in the main game! Age Of Reckoning Team, when it was still alive said they would add that mechanic as well. It's just a neat little thing which would add more variety and visual improvements to the game and a bigger ork to put you in your place? Well if all the black orks are the same size, who's really the biggest?

Well of course Grumlok, But I'm just saying some people may wanna make their own little waaghing things as a sort of fun even if it affects lore.
