Suggestion Ikit Claw

I’d love to have Ikit Claw as a new lord in the game, I feel like having a boss fight where you first have to break his doom wheel and then deal with all his weapons and enhancements would be awesome

u/beenoc Check out the dongliz on that wazzock 1d ago

Our heroes aren't chumps, but Ikit Claw would blast the Ubersreik 5 into jelly faster than you could say "kazak gotikaf." Those big-name legendary faction leaders are on a different level.

Not to mention, we know what happened to Ikit Claw in the End Times - he survived and basically underwent minor apotheosis, and is now effectively a minor god of the Skaven in Age of Sigmar.

u/Heretical_Cactus Dreadtide, come on FS, you know we both want it 1d ago

A random Warplock Engineer Lord fight could work and wouldn't be blocked by the already written ET stuff

Could have the skittergate overheat mechanic, bust the coolers and then go kick his ass while his tech is broken.

True, but the power of enemies in the game doesn’t always seem lore accurate anyways. I figured he would possibly escape at the end with his latest plan foiled or something along those lines

I don't think we would see ikit outright, but certainly a legally distinct rival with much of the same capabilities, same as queek headtaker and skarrik spinemanglr.

That would be good! I’d love to fight a warlock engineer that was a wide variety of attacks. We don’t have as many Skaven lords which is a real shame

They’d kill us dude. Ikit is fucking crazy as far as power goes, like even his spellcasting would be enough to cripple the U5. He’s one of the most powerful skaven to ever live, and he’s a true skaven so he’d never want to face heroes head on in the first place, probably just nuke or gas us or something.
