Patch Notes 2.28

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:28pm

The Axe, War Club & Norse Hammer now all swing at Elder Sword speed and have wristblade style tracking.

How do I use night vision for ps5?

Derangedxeno_02 · October 28, 2021, 5:35pm

Ok, Illfonic… This is content. Good work… Keep it up, talking to us, delivering on updates every few months if you can, and balancing, you just might get back on my good side…

Oh btw

Valk has 14 Perk Points now and SEEMS to have been buffed up to Berserker/Viking tier Health.

Aihrui · October 28, 2021, 5:37pm

Now the question is?
Is this a bug, temporary changed or actually a buff?

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:38pm

Well the NPCs killing FT in 6-9 hits and Preds in 15-20 MIGHT be a bug. But this buff to Valkyrie seems 100% intentional as they also buffed Cleo’s speed like I asked. Here’s an example of how fast the War Club is now BTW. Oh and Axe is the same speed.

This is amazing.
Valkyrie is one of my main hunt builds along a Huntress. Along I got a main Valkyrie for clash too.
Though still gonna stay with bow, elder sword and alpha sickle.
The axe and hammer are just not my taste.

Is that the variant or the regular club? Is there a difference?

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:44pm

This is the new War Club. It has different combos. It can kill an Assault in 6 hits and seems to do 3 hits per second. But the Viking Axe was buffed to be the same speed as well. And I just tested it and the regular War Club is unchanged.

Weevo540 · October 28, 2021, 5:44pm

Have not played yet but this looks like a big improvement over recent updates. Fucking night mode!

What’s the details on the melee rework? Dare I assume that means tracking is less hilarious?

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:46pm

The New War Club & Viking Axe are now Elder Sword speed and the new War Club can kill in 6 hits, doing 3 hits per second.

Weevo540 · October 28, 2021, 5:47pm

Did they touch the katana

Xenomorph_2099 · October 28, 2021, 5:47pm

Viking Axe is fast now.

Hook is like light speed.

Norse Hammer looks fun to use now.

Katana was untouched.

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:47pm

I haven’t tested the Katana yet. But people are reporting the Plasma Pistol does more damage.

SomeknowmeasXeno · October 28, 2021, 5:48pm

Oh and Valkyrie now has Zerk/Viking Health & 14 Perk Points.

Weevo540 · October 28, 2021, 5:50pm

Fuck. Guess I’m buying that

Mith · October 28, 2021, 5:53pm

Yeah, the plasma pistol projectiles are less spread out so it’s back to the way it was before the nerf.

Xenomorph_2099 · October 28, 2021, 5:53pm

Yea Valkyrie like Top 1 or 2 lmao.

REYNOSO_FUA11 · October 28, 2021, 5:53pm

Nice

Ageroberos · October 28, 2021, 5:59pm

I need more custom equipment!
