(PSN)TheSeamlessSuit Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 At about 46:10 in Devstream 26 they said that there will be no more charge attacks, and it sounded like it was being replaced with melee channeling. Later in the devstream they showed some new Glaive gameplay, and they could still throw it (like the current charge attacks). So if charges are gone, how can the Glaive still be thrown? But, onto my actual point for this, if there are no charges, does that mean that the Galatine will sort of be like the Acrid after damage 2.0? I'm not complaining, I really like the new melee system, I just want to know what you guys think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momoynator Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 They mentioned right before showing the glaive that it was an exception to the rule since it still has a charge function. I'm assuming its similar with the kestrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momoynator Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Also, I think come mêlée 2.0, no mêlée weapon is gonna be worse than what it is now. They all got buffed and have combos. It can't possibly be worse lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-dicht.ThanksFrost- Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Oh dear, that might mean that some people have to use something other than the galatine. Oh boo hoo, such sad, much depress, wow. No but in all seriousness im sure the galatine will have it own unique charge attacks that are similar to what it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angius Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Yes, Galatine will finally not be OP-broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoidPunch Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 My guess its maybe the charge stats will be replaced with channeling stats. Maybe Galatine can channel higher damage per energy then other weapons? That's actually just a hope then a guess. I would hate to see Galatine suck because it is the coolest great sword in my opinion, even though we only have 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murak Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Who knows at this point, the stats on most if not all of the melee weapons will have to change somewhat with the removal of charge attacks. Weapons with high charge / low swing damage will be have to be balanced / compensated (maybe previous charge dmg will move into channel dmg?). We'll have to wait till Wednesday to see how it'll all work out =O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK-A6A7 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) I can see an equivalence working: Average on "normal" but with channeling, the Galatine receives supa powa. Edited April 5, 2014 by HK-A6A7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murak Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 On top of the weapons changing themselves the charge damage mods will also have to change, I would imagine something to do with channel dmg as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volt_Cruelerz Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I'd like to point out that this whole time, the Galatine hasn't been OP. It's just that it's been the only melee that comes close to matching the DPS of guns and in doing so, blows the other melee weapons out of the water.

Momoynator Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I have no idea what happens when I type mêlée... my tablet just auto corrects it to that :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)DaReapa Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The question is does melee channeling damage vary by weapon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
