Which Coptor Weapon: Amphis Or Scoliac

[Yazeth]

I know that both are the best at coptoring, but which would provide more overall use?

If you're not going to use it only for coptering then you should check the 1.1-1.2 speed weapons too.

Amphis is better for overall use. More effective weapon. However, Scoliac is better at coptering.

 I love em both.

 

If I HAD to give an edge, it would be Amphis for jump attack stun-slam.

I am. I'm just asking which is better damage-wise. I'm not gonna use melee JUST for coptoring.

Now, a Dual Ichor with a berserker+fury+quickening crit build can send you flying, and is also amazing for combat.

This. it's better to have a copter weapon that is also deadly. Plus it's also recommended for the Valkyr too

I would recommend the Amphis to literally every player-- it's a wonderful weapon, and the only one I ever used pre-melee 2.0. I recently sold it after getting the Bo Prime, but it is very good at coptering. For me, it was just a bit too much, and it would always push me farther than I wanted to go, so I ended up selling it after getting the Bo Prime. The Amphis is still a wonderful weapon, however.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good Amphis was in Melee 2.0, but I don't remember if I have both stances or not. I think I just have one, but I did really really like it.

 

Whip stances seem better adjusted for when you're OP. Lots of attacks that hit lots of targets. If you're fighting low level stuff and one- or two-shotting it all I would say Scoliac. For general purpose and difficult content I would say Amphis.

Berserker+Fury+Quickening works extremely well on the Amphis. It attacks so quickly that you're guaranteed to crit within a short period of time. And once you've got berserker fully proc'd, you're not going to run out of crits.

OT: The Amphis is better all in all.

Hey guys. I decided on the Amphis, but Dual Ichor seems to be a favorite as well. I'll try them both and see which one I like more.
