Riven disposition is now higher since Inaros Prime update
if you ever feel like trying to make a normal longsword an endgame-viable weapon, i would recommend doing it with this one
Highly likely
Very high cc, above average cd and good sc with slash as primary damage, you have the makings of a perfect BR & CO weapon. only downside is attack speed but can be easily fixed with berserker and arcane fury
arcane fury ???? u mean Arcane Strike
Right, get those confused sometimes
Yah, the names for mods have some similarities to what they do but with the most weirdest drunken name to them
Scoliac is the best
Not a sword, your turn has passed..
i identify as a straight white male sword
Is this a good weapon to keep and use or just use for mastery only?.
Quite solid, I’ll say. Give it a try, who knows if it turned out to be the right cup of tea for you
Twin Krohkur is a fundamentally different weapon, why is there a comparison here to it?
If I have riven with -80% slash malus and add some slash bonus mod with +80%, does that negate the riven or do the +80% work on the already reduced value? Wondering, got +240% melee dmg, +146% electrictity but -80% slash...
It will negate the riven, I have a Vasto riven with +300% cc, +420% dmg and -100% slash and I use main to compensate. It works perfectly.
It's super late to mention this, but the -slash isn't that bad IF you are not building for slash procs. The other damage types, like say, your corrosive elemental damage, use the original stats to derive their totals. So, you will do less slash damage, and less slash procs, but the effect on your total damage (again, if you're not building for slash procs) will be relatively minor.
In this case, I would try without the slash mod and see what you get. I tend to build my melee for slash procs, but that's personal preference.
100% sure this is the best single sword in the game
Maybe?
No.
yes it is, by a country mile. and has 4 dispo to add to the great stats it has even zaw swords cant beat it.
it's a little slow tho... and broken war exists even tho broken war is mostly raw damage more than anything
no energy color on this blade?
Got a pretty roll riven with it,
150.2% Finisher Damage
9.7+ Combo Duration
182.5% Melee Damage
-107.3% Range
granted, I need to be in kissing range to hit someone, but at least with Crimson Dervish and just finishers in general I've seen it dish out 402k on a red crit.
Well well... never cared about this weapon... but I just got a riven for it so I needed to know it.
+135.5% toxin
Slide Attack 144% crit chance
but -76.6% slash damage
What do i do? I mean with elements it might help but that's it i guess. I'll just build a Krohkur to test this riven *shrug*
You can make a pretty decent crit build with that, albeit you have to slide attack a lot to reap the benefits
lmao minus slash damage on the weapon is pretty bad.
Frysta skin still bugged and has been bugged since the weapon was introduced. You think they could at least arse themselves to fix something so simple and that's been reported since october.
Only decent longsword and the best skin on it is bugged. Yes I am mad.
Broken War also has 90 Base Damage, an Attack Speed of 1.0, and is 80% Slash.
broken war for speed and dmg is amazing
also no toxicity
Both swords are good in their own right (imo)
Got a Riven with
+85.2% Crit Chance on slide +107.9% Range +82.7% Heat
what do you guy think?
Combine it with maiming strike and its a crit monster
How Dare you recomend maiming strike
This weapon is weird. I have 52.2% crit chance on it, but literally every single hit always crits. IDK if there's some sort of under the hood crit boost going on or something, but I'm not complaining. Makes my krohkur shred lvl 110 heavy gunners pretty quickly. :D
Are you in the simulacrum? if so, check to see if enemy AI is turned off in the settings, it may be just doing finishers because they're unaware (similar to if they were blinded)
Ah, you're right. I had ai paused, and when I turned it off the crits were back to normal. So I just put blood rush on it and it kills pretty much just as fast now. :D
Now, to find the blueprint... because THEY DON'T LIST THE DAMN BLUEPRINTS LOCATIONS!!! No market or lab.
I had "hide owned" checked... my bad.
REEEEEEEEEE!
I don't know if anyone has noticed, but this looks like Riku's Way to Dawn from Kingdom Hearts.
How exactly? I don't see it
Looks more like something from Mass Effect then Kingdom Hearts.
than*
I agree lol, the colours are very Mass Effect
No seriously, what's with the grineer these days. They've been developing proper looking weapons one after another.
They need to redesign Hind, looks a bit too infested with it's Baguette appearance.
Ballistics weapons Which are more similiar to modern weapons
They fired their old weapons disgner and outsourced for a new one.
Got a Riven for this thing...
+77.3% Critcal Chance on slide +79.3% Critical Chance +74.8% Critical Damage
Should I keep it?
Yes,But for all seriousness You should really know how to take a good riven mod than asking,Like seriously use Common sense
Could just be showing off
or straight up bullshiting :P
29% Crit Chance my ass. Crits about as often as the Nukor......
Dakra Prime is gonna stay vaulted now I guess, not really any need for it .. other then for the speed freaks
Broken War was already all around better than Dakra and has the same speed as Dakra.
They reminds me of those chinese sabers/ dao swords. I thought they combined that with hook swords, but not anymore. One day there will be, hopefully, hookswords to love.
Yeah, I can see the dao element. I also get a lil of a persian khopesh vibe too.
