ViLeDeth Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) (Would like to know the community's thoughts on the weapon post lv30. Keep it civil.) I bought it about 12 hours ago and I obtained the Malicious Raptor stance on the way to ranking it to lv30. Thoughts Lv20+ - POST lv30: The stance itself is fun but the Venka seems like it is missing some oomph behind its slash damage and speed. Currently it has 15% status/crit chance. Modding for crit isn't worth the slots for small increase in dps - the status is fine but even after putting on mods it feels lack luster in general regardless of a procs here and there. My issue is mostly the low slash damage and the speed even with berserker+fury (without spoiled strike) - it is still quite slow for a weapon that looks like it would be a bit faster. The speed is more of a priority issue than the low slash damage. Your thoughts on the weapon? Edited June 27, 2014 by ViLeDeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheImmortalHotDog Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 My Venka isn't even rank 30. I just have everything maxed; Pressure Point, Jagged Edge and Molten Impact. I've been running the Dark Sector Defense on Pluto and they've been tearing them apart. It's even better if you have Invisibilty/Smoke Screen on.

PsychedelicSnake Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Could use a bit of tweaking, but really, most weapons can use a bit of tweaking as well. That being said, I love this weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViLeDeth Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Claw weapons are stupid. Do you own it or just voicing an opinion on the weapon type? Can you use your experience with using the weapon and provide an opinion based on that? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opinion is still valid to you but it is not really inline with the subject focus of user experience versus your disinterest in it as a certain weapon type.

GreyEnneract Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Mine are 30. Maxed build. The attack speed is too slow. The crit chance is too low. Status is decent. Base damage is somewhat average for a fist type weapon. For clan tech, it is very lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViLeDeth Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Don't ask for opinions then. I don't mean to be rude but the thread itself is focused on user opinion on actually having the weapon itself and using it for some time. Read the other replies to see examples of what the discussion is about. Again I never said your opinion was invalid but not inline with the subject focus. I hope I am not upsetting you any further.

Dalawantahr Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Knowing that this is a berserker weapon in Wolverine comics, just make me sad looking at the crit stat. @ViLeDeth how does it compare with dual ichor with berserker mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night and day difference. Dual Ichor is literally speed itself if we have to establish a comparison between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evers Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 They just feel really slow. To be honest i was expecting them to be a lot faster. I mean it jus tfeels wrong, that kind of weapon should go so fast that you can barly see it. Slash dmg could be a bit highe rtoo but the rest is ok.

CaptainJohnson Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Not every weapon is going to be a nightmarish tool of mass destruction. Since it's not a Prime weapon, I didn't suspect it would be quite as powerful as one, but then again, the Dual Ichor defied that trend. I'd still put Berserker on it because 15% is honestly all you need to make Berserker effective (especially with a multi-hit focused stance) but I'd actually hope it wasn't anything near the Dual Ichor. We don't need every weapon to be on that tier, as fun as the Dual Ichor may be. I haven't actually gotten the weapon because I'm poor as heck and don't really like buying weapons I can get from clantech, but I have seen how the stance works and looked at the weapon's stats (and even farmed for Malicious Raptor already, got it this afternoon!). Honestly, I'll be keeping it just because it's Wolverine claws. The weapon does look like it could get a buff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nintega Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Just looking at the stats, I feel like it could use some faster attacks and higher critical chance. As much as I ignore it when modding, 15% isn't really enough to do much, especially with how weak True Steel is. Honestly, the weapon would be bumped up a lot with just raises to both critical stats. Berserker pretty much removes any gripes with attack speed. Though, I don't own the weapon yet, far from it. Just started building my own dojo, and I have to build an Oracle, then a Tenno Lab, then Asktiletto, then Sybaris, and finally I can get my hands on Venka.

(PSN)JoeyTwoShoes Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Considering the fact that it's a Tenno-made weapon, maybe it doesn't have the best to stats to make way for a possible future prime version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchel Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 its a tenno weapon, it suppose to SUCK because there will be a prime version coming . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyEnneract Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 But it's clan tech. For all the work it takes up, it needs to be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalawantahr Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Night and day difference. Dual Ichor is literally speed itself if we have to establish a comparison between the two. Terrible. So we're left with the cool and fun factor? I'm still getting the Venka tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyEnneract Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 So we're left with the cool and fun factor? I'm still getting the Venka tho. Yes. If the crit chance or attack speed is ever raised it will be worth. The best stance for it ends up being the slowest to use, so overall I give it a 2/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 its a tenno weapon, it suppose to SUCK because there will be a prime version coming . Lol. It will have 4 claws per side instead of 3 and deal 33.3% more damage because of math reasons. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
