Jabbzz 18 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So, is Fang really an armor-ignoring melee? If you were to choose between Dual Zorens and Fang, what would you choose and why? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Dr-Jelly 22 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 It doesn't ignore armor. Fang anyday. Why? BEcause it has higher atack rate and extra damage against grineer, Link to post Share on other sites
MrGrae 350 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I don't know if it ignores armour but the sheer speed it attacks with has me loving it. Link to post Share on other sites
Davante 14 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 All three new weapons are so freakin' sweet. Link to post Share on other sites
Akularael 6 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 All three new weapons are so freakin' sweet. Yeah i've been playing with all 3 equipped. pretty fun, only issue is infestation. Link to post Share on other sites
Yurt 9 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Yes all daggers including Fang ignore armor. You really only need these two weapons. Fang for Grineer and Zorens for everything else. Link to post Share on other sites
MAL1WAN 686 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 ^Right, Got pawned by foolishly slicing dogs with daggers.. Link to post Share on other sites
Altale 1,841 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 ^Right, Got pawned by foolishly slicing dogs with daggers.. Fang does 22 damage on Grineer, but does 7 damage on infested. Link to post Share on other sites
CubedOobleck 2,171 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I thought daggers ignored armor only with charged attacks... Link to post Share on other sites

Scourger 76 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Goodbye to my Fragor and Gram then. Gram got dumped after trying Zoren, Fragor will probably get dumped after trying Fang :D Do fangs hit multiple enemies tho? Because turning invisible with Loki and killing 3 grineers per charge (that all stick together after you turn invisible) with my fragor has been pretty fun so far... And btw I hate the misleading stats even on NEW weapons ffs. The only reason I didn't want to try Fang is that it says attack speed 1.5 while Zoren are 2, so I was like uhm ok I keep Zoren. But now I see everyone saying that they Fangs are faster x_x Edited March 21, 2013 by Scourger Link to post Share on other sites
alif3 182 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The fact that they multi hit helps make them faster and stronger as a base weapon than zorens, that being said i havent sufficently used dual zoren in the new patch since i love the dual fangs so much Link to post Share on other sites

So Fangs DO multihit? Edited March 21, 2013 by Scourger Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralPinky 9 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Fang ignores armour for the umpteenth time. Link to post Share on other sites
SecretDragoon 7 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Zorens have always multi hit. Daggers ignore armor (i.e. Dark Dager too) Zorens are still better because of the higher attack speed modifier (2.0). They are the absolute best weapon vs Infested (i.e. Xini). Do not know about Fang, it is its own Niche (Against Grineer). But why would you melee something shootting at you? Edited March 21, 2013 by SecretDragoon Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamwalk3r 742 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 But why would you melee something shootting at you? Because you can. Link to post Share on other sites
Scourger 76 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Because you can. XD this but mostly because (at least imo) it's much more fun than shooting in general, but also because with frames like Ash or Loki it's very easy to get in close combat due to their speed + skills. So can anyone tell me if Fang multihits? Link to post Share on other sites
UnderYourBed 95 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So, is Fang really an armor-ignoring melee? Daggers technically don't ignore armor (that's for blunt weapons) but rather deal AP damage which gets a bonus against armor (and reduced damage against Infested). Link to post Share on other sites
Deucalian 88 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So can anyone tell me if Fang multihits? It does. The slide attack also lets you do two attacks as opposed to all the other weapons only letting you do one. Just use the key you have it set to (rmb in my case) and wreck stuff.

EagleRise 1,040 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) its a dagger, daggers ignore armor as far as I know, also, it wont deal extra damage to infrsted, also like daggers. Edited March 21, 2013 by EagleRise Link to post Share on other sites
