[Amalgam javalok magazine warp]

Reflects +6000% damage

How the hek are we supposed to use this properly? I can't block with a primary or secondary equipped and the "fancy" auto block only blocks after you get hit at least once and by then you should have closed the Gap and killed it by then.

You can. You need to put Reflection mod into your warframe and use channeling while wielding melee. Thats the reason why there is +90% channeling efficiecy while parrying on this mod.

What part is not working? the damage reflection?

 

If I'm not mistaken, this mod is specific to blocking with "shields", which I take to mean the sword and shield weapons only.

If my understanding of this Mod is correct, then it is extremely situational, I don't see many chance of enemies getting close enough to hit me. There aren't a lot of melee enemies that would run at you to melee them. 

I guess this mod is specifically for running with just the javlok and a sword and shield, so you use your melee weapon while you wait for the javlok to return to you. 6000% of damage sounds nice, but the fact that it is incredibly situational may not make it worth it. The 90% channeling efficiency is nice though.

Ok trying vs melee lvl 145 bombard just punched me in the face 5 times without the block animation. Is that "normal" keep in mind I am standing in front of him facing him while channeling. I do have reflection, reflex guard, parry and energy available for parry.

Ok so I have a level 100 corrupted bombard qued up it is reflecting the rocket damage back at them and doing a substantial amount of damage how ever the block animation is NOT working with the bombard's punch animation. It is also not offering the finishers with [parry] melee mod.

additionally, the mod is for Parries not Blocks. That means you should be close to them because you only parry melee attacks.  

And also this mod https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Parry

It reflects both melee and range attacks.

I don't know what is wrong with you but i have parry animation when i block bombards rockets, however blocking explosives imho its not good idea. Even if 1 rocket is enought to kill 150lvl bombard with 100% stripped armor it still deals lots of damage and can knock you down. I tested this mod vs various grineer units and in new boss fight and it works pretty ok for me.

Works pretty ok for me is the part that is broke...  Try the overprotective trin build. No primary no secondary, use ack & brunt with the mods electromagnetic shielding and guardian derision, cast link (range and duration needed) and hold your aim button. (Intended for group use not solo) note the control of the 15 meter area and everyone in 12 meters has 50% damage reduction. Every thing in your controlled area focuses solely on you, your squishy friends are protected and link returns damage done to allies to the area enemies. Now try that same build with javalok equipped. You are then just running around screaming I have a stick! You have no control over the area you are not drawing agro no protection for allies you are just kinda there... and [amalgam javalok magazine warp] defenantly isn't doing much...
