Btw for anybody trying this build, you can do a little tech. Right after dash-striking (with your special or attack) you can immediately follow it up with your other move.
Exactly mel aspects are usually only slightly lower than their others in their weapon class at best, and their differentiating factor is really just that they're a bit simpler which isn't necessarily a bad thing (while zag aspects imo were near unusable at high fear and were nowhere near the other aspects of their class except fists and the rail)
I think it’s because omega moves gave the devs a lot more options to think about what to give to mels aspects. I really like them Edit: Sprinting is not an omega move but it still requires the dash button to be held so… that Only now, i just wonder what the secret aspects will be
Yeah the stun was from a new vow of fangs buff, it is a bit broken because I was fighting a Lubber (barrel throwing guy) who had that perk and I stepped in the fire created by his barrel and I got stun-locked and died. For sure needs some tweaking
Ohhhh I was wondering! Got absolutely pounded last night on my 32 surface attempts and was wondering why i kept getting stunlocked. Honestly though even without fangs I do thing the ranged automatons are a bit overtuned. They pretty consistently do more damage to me than most bosses if I get caught in a bad situation
Oh that makes sense I just assumed the laser guys on the surface were insanely scary when when stunned me and did like 90 damage thank you for this information
The new balancing for eris and prometheus feels really good to me. I have beaten them with every weapon (except skull because it is somehiw never chosen by the bonus) repeatedly. I do want to see the mythic aspects, cant really imagine what xinth would get, but I hope its something along: "while chanelling the omega special repeatedly fire mortars/rockets"
one hint on how to play with "trick knives" (the dash strike firing special one) is to: 1- you use your dash strike 2- you use your normal special 3- keep repeating it. I SEE THAT MOST PLAYERS DON'T GET IT, AND MAYBE THAT'S WHY THEY FEEL TRICK KNIVES IS BAD trying to use only dash strike is more easy to break and start a normal attack combo, which will let you with a off time being unable to use trick knives, but in the meantime your dash strike 'is on cd', you can still use your special and in someway 'cancelling the animation' of attacks so you keep repeating dash strike into special, even with the 3 knives out in the air, the one on the special can be fired as another 4 special (it doesn't need you to wait for the knives of dash strike to return), so it really leads into a higher damage and safer way to play in resume, alternating into specials and dash strikes is better for a normal special build in that case, more consistent, and has a great damage output while making you stay far and safe from enemies. trick knives is not a bad hammer, it just make u want to play into a different way.
I had a run yesterday where I used trick knives, hera special, zeus blitz on the attack, and apollo cast to inflict daze for buku backstabs, it was so much damage. took like two or three dash strikes to phase chronos. I also go really lucky with boon rarity and poms.
only time i ever spoke in dans chat was to suggest the keepsake from nyx 4 a backstab build he laughed at me and dismissed me out of hand and then made fun of me for the suggestion. lol
The first time I saw the bird was in Olympus, but after that I only ran into it in Erebus. Not sure what the trigger is but I do think that you can only *bond* the bird in Erebus, no matter where you first encounter it.
Wow this build looks amazing. But it seems kinda lucky, since if you take away 2 or 3 things from the win screen pinned items, your damage becomes mediocre (I think).
