Hi-Intensity Shock Troop Gauntlet is the hardest special condition in the game, making it perfect for a weapon viability test. The M35 Magnacore Mk II Plasma Gun, passed the test.

This still remains one of my favourite weapons throughout 40k, and thanks to the buffs it received a few patches ago, it remains of of my favourite weapons to use in the game. I tried to focus its strengths into eliminating Ogryn, with the Perks and Feats. It seems to work very well for the weapon as it destroys them with the Ultimate ability up and running.

I think the video demonstrates its ability to keep up with Hi-Intensity Shock Troop Gauntlet. The only problem is you can find that the weapon is very ammo hungry. So you have to try not to eliminate single basic enemies with it. Which I failed to do, as the temptation is too strong.

Let me know your thoughts on the weapon in the comments.
