Lancars Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I have a build set up for stealth stuff AND combat. I would be able to kill targets but i had a special setup for taking out key targets before they reached the team using Sleep arrow and Covert Lethality. From what i hear i'll have to spend way more time trying to kill a target instead of killing and moving on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Yes-Man-Kablaam Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 covert lethality was nonsense. you can still kill people with stealth finishers. just maybe not level 10000s. covert lethality wasn't really a build just an OP mod. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about a nox which takes reduced damage till you break the glass. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use ivara but i use glaive and navigator or zenistar+mutalist quanta and can kill everything over level 200 while i am over a wire on the other side of the map. And it's more fun than using the broken and stupid CL and after these changes you will probably get 100% damage at the end every time... If you are speaking about very long survivals, yes you have to change strategy at all. Edited October 19, 2019 by bibmobello Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither of these is really a problem for Ivara. In both cases she can sleep the Nox and either do multiple melee stealth kills or easy headshots to the glass head. I've used both methods and they work very very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can put to sleep everything with other frames too but you will not break the helmet of a level 200 nox without having radiation and or a lot of damage...If you have a pure HM munition build without elemental you will not break it at all... And if you use artemis bow and you are too close you will die for toxin damage. BTW you can just strip his armor and he will die for viral damage the same even with his helmet...Just use an high status secondary to strip armor and a primary or melee with viral slash. A mara detron can strip everything with 3 or 4 hits. You can skip the strip process if you have 4 CP.

(XBOX)COA Altair Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Uhhhhh shoot the nox in the face with an arrow from your primary. Problem solved. They said that new parazon thing or whatever it was called was going to have covert lethality built into it or something too, though it remains to be seen how it works.

And all of that still isn't faster than what a single Ivara can do to a lvl 200 Nox all by herself even without CL. Dying from the Toxin cloud is the main reason you don't want to melee stealth kill a high level Nox the second time anyway. I say second time, because it usually takes two to three melee stealth kills to kill them once they get above lvl 100 depending on the weapon being used. At those levels it's usually better to just blast it in the head with Artemis to get rid of both it and it's toxin cloud. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyreaus Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I mean, it's getting tied to the Parazon instead, and if that's the weapon that's going to be used with all finishers (at least with CL equipped - I can't imagine they'd let regular melee weapons override CL finishers), then it's not really going anywhere. Daggers do also still have the combo that open up finishers, for what that's worth, and the changes to range mechanics could make them a bit better than just that. So, wait and see.
