Deathstroke2000 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I like it. It's nice. With a crit build. Good alternative to Galantine, which everyone and his dog is using these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leuca Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 No. No melee weapon beats the Galatine. Said alternative. Dual ichor is quite effective until enemies get to be too high for melee anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leuca Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 No, good alternative. It is not. What's not good? It'll get you through most any content until about the point that melee becomes superfluous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathstroke2000 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Yes. it is a very good alternative to what has become the most cookie-cutter weapon around, hahahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimir Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 What's not good? It'll get you through most any content until about the point that melee becomes superfluous. I never said it wasn't good, but compared to the Galatine it looks like a piece of garbage. Simple as that. Poison Damage is not that big of a deal here - all melee weapons ignore armour on Charge attacks anyway. It is the "gimp" version of Poison; doesn't even do DoT like the Acrid's Poison Damage. And the Galatine has 3x against Light Infested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leuca Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) I never said it wasn't good, but compared to the Galatine it looks like a piece of garbage. Simple as that. wat? No, good alternative. It is not. That right there was very misleading then. If it's not a good alternative, that means it's not good. If I can use it until the same point I can reasonably use melee in general, it's good. We already know Galatine charge builds make other weapons look stupid, but that doesn't mean they're not good. Melee just falls off once enemies get to a high enough level. Edited October 22, 2013 by Leuca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Galatine has 3x against Light Infested. Light infested are like cutting through butter with a hot knife on any weapon, really. Only reason to use Galatine is for high burst damage and sustained DPS, but given the huge delay between swings, those aren't going to help you when surrounded by trash mobs. Ichor will cut through any Light Infested much, much faster than Galatine could do. Edited October 22, 2013 by SortaRandom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimir Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Charge Speed is one of the easier things to mod. People overestimate the slowness of the Galatine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penthos Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 With my galatine I can get off a charge swing every 1.5 seconds. That is pretty fast when you whack the enemy for an absurd amount of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathstroke2000 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Dual Ichor is also more fun to use than Brolantine, and an equally good, if not better alternative to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shut Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) Charge Speed is one of the easier things to mod. People overestimate the slowness of the Galatine. I have charged speed maxed out. I have a pretty good grasp on how fast the Galatine is or isn't, thanks. It's slow for its damage on low-health targets, since its potential damage is completely wasted by the huge overkill. That's why it's by far the best melee on heavy and Boss units, but not nearly so on Light or Medium.

Ned_Wiki Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 But. The Galatine can hit enemies TWICE per charge attack. I love my Dual Ichor as much as the next guy but I'm always gonna fall back on my Galatine for the REAL heavy lifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimir Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) The Galatine is nothing short of the Acrid of melee weapons. Just like with the Soma I ask myself daily just what went through the head of whoever designed them both. Deal with it.

fatpig84 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Ichors do have something that Galatine slow pokes will never enjoy. Ichorcoptah ! It's only slightly slower than Zorens while it's DPS is just slightly below par of the Galatine. So it is the perfect weapon for day to day use unless you are sitting a cryopod 24/7. And yes I formaed the Galatine myself too. Edited October 23, 2013 by fatpig84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
