The Stagger Effect While Charging Glaive Shouldbe Removed

[asasa99]

The stagger effecton glaive is annoying,glaive and other melee throwing weapons are supposed to be utility,or a reserve weapon,for example,youre dueling off a though heavy gunner,and you need to reload,i charge up my glaive then end up getting staggered to hell,i think the stagger effect while charging glaive should be removed

Poor you. Would you like some greedy milk to soothe that anger?

Seriously. Its a PvE game. How/why would you want to have them nerfed? They're already low tier weapons. The only reason I could think of is Conclave, and no one really cares about that.

I think you've got something confused, he's saying that getting staggered from attacks while attempting to charge up for a glaive throw should be removed.

The first time I encountered this, i thought it was a bug or nerf from trinity's blessing forcing stagger upon recieving bullet damange... This explains alot.. I agree wit OP, there is way too much bulletfire in this game, and the stagger effect makes the glaive throw useless.

Yeah, I'd like it to be removed as well.

 

I'm definitely not sure why it was added. If it was for balance, I usually don't see it as a more effective alternative to using a gun.

If it was to balance out its advantage over other melee weapons, if someone goes melee only, it really undermines the defining feature of the glaive-like weapons.

 

I personally like using the Kestral and I really like it for the knock-down utility. But it's much less reliable to use now, since there is super high risk of being staggered when you try to throw it. Especially when you are constantly being fired upon.

 

It really makes it much less enticing to use the glaive-like weapon's most defining feature.

Seems to be a rather recent but, i've tested the kestrel after melee 2.0 and it didn't have this feature/bug then.

 

But yeah it just made the throwing weapons very unreliable, so i hope it wasn't intended.

Radial blind, invisibility and all kind of control counter the stagger effect

 

 

 

The glaive is not for all play styles.

Not even reading the OP

[Methanoid]

ive been staggered very often just using the normal attack with the glaive, so just use it to copter with.

...What?

Wrong thread, methinks.

And yes, this is really annoying.

That shouldn't be needed.

A single small bullet doing less then 5 damage shouldn't make you stagger.

I was sure its a bug, it makes this melees unusable

This undermines the purpose of the thrown melees. They are meant to be flexible in a variety of situations, not restricted to frame-specific setups where using another weapon would work better.
