The Chapter Champion is usually the company's finest swordsman. Their role is to engage the strongest foes on the battlefield in single combat, leaving the company Captain free to conduct the wider battle, rather than engage in a series of personal combats.


Often conflated with, but not exclusive to the Emperor's Champion of the Black Templars, nearly every chapter has fielded a Chapter Champion in battle at some point. While the two roles are very similar, the Chapter Champion is not limited to a single chapter.




Wargear:


Primary:

-Dual Power Swords

-Paragon Blade


Secondary:

-Bolt Pistol


Primary (Ranged):

-None




Ability:


Honor Duel: 

Draw the ire of Majoris and above level threats in a 30m radius around you, forcing them to focus their attacks on you for the duration. While active, perfect dodges and parries restore 1 armor.


Passive:

Finishers on a Majoris or above level enemy reduces the cooldown of your Wargear by an additional 10%.

Idea is nice but I think there is no need for such class. This sounds like middle ground between assault and bulwark.

no.  dual power swords is silly and this character has no relevance in PvP


This character would be a less skilled Bulwark, designed to make enemies come to you so you don't need to think about your combos.   this game has unlimited mobility, a taunt ability is just lazy.

Just look at this image of the emperor's champion and tell me it isn't something you'd like to see in game, it would make the perfect champion for the black templars in the season pass.

I'd imagine it as an aggressive melee only class with a strong ability to compensate, maybe giving a temporary speed and armour boost to help close distance and full contested health for the duration?

I don't think it would overlap too much with assault and vanguard, as from what I've heard they have more flanking and defensive oriented playstyles respectively (although I haven't had chance to put many hours in the game yet unfortunately and will defer to the judgement of those that have).

what about for pvp? that ability kinda sucks if you dont have some type of bullet immunity like bulwark. 

Champion is top tier warrior of the chapter - give him Iron Halo, either as active skill for PvP or or Rosarius as passive -50% ranged dmg

Chapter Champion as all other characters should have ALL sidearms. 

In my oppinion he should have options:
1. 2-handed melee and sidearm available after changing weapon, so you can't just start shooting but need to press extra key first,. There is a lot of 2-handed weapon in warhammer, including 2-handed chainsword for space marine size, and champion is usually portayed with sword, but as a CHAMPION he should be able to choose any melee weapon he likes

2. Two melee weapons, but not only power sword. Can't you imagine Space Wolf champion with two power-axes? Or double power-claws

3. Onehanded melee weapon but with increased speed, and critical chance, so if you hit enemy in head you get x5 or x7 damage instead x2 for PvE. For PvP just increased speed.
