Kronxito Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Hi. Baruuk’s exalted melee doesnt build combo. Im talking about the “shockwave” each punch releases. Is this intended or a bug? It only counts for combo if Baruuk’s fist itself physically hits the enemy. This makes very difficult to build up combo when using this exalted weapon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekomian Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 AFAIK it's intended, since you'd just easily sit at max combo the entire time with how the wind waves function. Excal's Exalted Blade functions similarly, where its energy waves also do not add to the melee combo counter, so I'd say it's by design from what I can tell.

All it gives you is a dmg multiplier. You cannot equip "acolyte mods" on it so there is no scaling crit. There are builds that utilise a game mechanic, where you build combo on your melee weapon, but not on your exalted weapon to capitalise on acolyte mods. But to me it is an overkill because Reactive Storm already gives you massive status and all you get for your hassle is a bit of crit (you do not even get the damage multiplier. You can build/sustain combo on Desert Wind by utilising slams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, we have Tennokai. It's not necessarily overkill; in fact, the damage falls drastically in endurance runs without armor strip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like with Excalibur and the energy beams he shoots when he swings his exalted blade. The melee combo counter only goes up if you actually hit an enemy in melee.
