Glaives are supposed to explode right ?

[(PSN)krizalid9999]

I know about the fast return trick to mae glaive class melee explode but aren't they supposed to explode with throwing + channeling too? 

I read everywhere that if you throw the thing and then press the channeling button then it's supposed to explode but it just does nothing both while dual wielding and normal , both an regular and power throw.

Did that feature go away with melee rework ?

Toggling channel during a throw shouldn't do anything, I think? I need to test this myself. However, if you're channeling and then you throw, it should explode when you melee.

Glaive can explode mid-flight by pressing the melee button

They changed it to explode when you press melee. 

No channeling needed.

you don't use Channeling anymore, you just press Melee again.
way better and more convenient! you can even manually detonate while you're holding a Gun (it would work even without instant switch). so good.

so you don't even need Quick Return anymore for a pure Punch-Through throwing style, if you're ok with having to pay attention to its current position and detonate it on the Enemies you're targeting manually.

_{now if we can just move the 'dual wield' features to global so that you can get Punch-Through without needing Power Throw D:}

gotta hit the melee button again while thrown to explode.

So ok , I have to dual weild with a one handed secondary and do a heavy throw and THEN use melee.

That thing was driving me crazy , thank you.

Amalgam organ shatter will prove usefull to me after all.
