I will say the stealth kill is lame
He should cut them in half
I also think the overhead should do more damage to downed FT
Change my Mind
Netgun is pretty bad because honestly if it clips a leaf it breaks and nets I’ve found fairly easy to dodge even 1v1, blades just don’t have damage output and tracking can be very off on them
Yeh
Its free damage for 1 or 2 slashes. You can have another weapon out while also getting a free hit on someone who’s turned around.
You’re not meant to be using combos in this game unless the weapon is extremely fast because melee sucks. High risk with poor payoff when you could just be castering safely from behind a wall.
I’ve found elder sword is easy to get away from and most people parry it really easy on the first swing, but that’s just me
Team is not always good, especially in random match, so you can’t say that the weapon is good/bad by that.
I can say they did fix the tracking with it or at least make it better. Honestly, can’t base it on good premades either since doesn’t matter what you use against a good premade you’ll lose every time 🤷🏻♂️
With Battle Axe you can’t fight back though. Nope, tracking is still terrible.
It’s not an AOE weapon, it’s made for extremely high DPS. it’ll one shot anything below 125 and with a overhead and light anything with 150 at least. Only field medics did I have to hit with two overheads to down them, rest were either downed in one or downed in a heavy and a light.
But, even if random squad and they are communicating can be a challenge. I won against complete randoms easily, guys that talked were definitely a challenge, and premades we both know it wouldn’t matter if I used the most broken predator build and was the best Predator player on PS, I would still lose.
So, I’m basing it off of the really challenging games, the easy ones, and the ones I’ve lost. It’s a decent weapon, but has a certain playstyle that doesn’t go with what’s meta right now and you have to know when to use it and when not to. It’s a weapon that is good, but requires you to think before acting unlike just using Caster or some of the other weapons you can dive in or stand back with.
I landed almost every overhead last night without a problem, you have to aim your camera not just swing.
:). If your prey is not fighting back of course it is easy to land shots. I mean, if your opponent is not standing still, or you are not attacking while he is running straight forward you won’t land a hit. Registration is also terrible. For example, you landed a hit perfectly, but for some reason no damage is done. It is not a decent weapon. A decent weapon, for example, is the elder sword.
Me to Illfonic about the Viking class:
Netgun with trapper is Definitely in the top 3 weapons against top tier pc teams. If you’re good with it you can guarantee a win in a 2v1 situation. Better than all the other melee weapon since they can be parried. In quickplay against randoms Everything is viable and everything is overpowered so you can’t tell how bad something actually is since you’ll win anyway. I also win every match I use axe with a proper build. It’s just very inefficient.
