kwlingo Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Didn't know the UI for gunblades have changed and almost everyone I talk to in game doesn't know this either. I remember the Sarpa with Shattering Impact being extremely useful. Now it take so long to completely strop the armor. This was the same setup I use to run for the Plague event, and literally before the Hemo got into attack phase , I was able to depleted 100% of its armor. Note: with a speedva rushing it out. Sad to see this is no longer a viable option to strip armor. At least we still have frame abilities that work. Not sure if this change was intended. If players don't know, the pellets fired do not prioritize Impact any longer, Its a Slasher now. But I will say it does more damage when it comes to the bullets hitting the enemies than the Redeemer Prime (excluding heavy attack build). With the Redeemer pellets now doing blast damage only. If anything DE, it would be nice it the heavy attack on the Sarpa would do the Impacts damage it use to. Other than that I don't know if anyone will be using this weapon for the intended purpose any longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KitMeHarder Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Corrupt Heavy Gunners got a stealth buff, 500 base armor to 1400. So you need 234 pellets Or 47 full burst to fully strip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPrime96 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 The amount of hits you took on the Heavy Gunner in the video would've completely strip the Armor from a Eidolon tbh but i can see what you mean. Definitely a slow strip for Sarpa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excluding some boss fights where they are immune to frame abilities? Good to know. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think every day after the release of HoD there were small patch Hotfixes. This must have been in one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
