SelfDeceit Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 According to http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Weapon_Types they are. Can anyone confirm it? Also let's say it is the fastest. What melee weapon and mod/stance combination (excluding berserker) would yield the fastest attack speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)kiddplay13 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) inb4 moved to Feedback->Weapons. But to the OP yes, with a combo of Fury/Berserker/Quickening/Warcry you can reach about 3.5 to 4.5 Attack Speed. Fury+ Berserker+Quickening= 3.55 Attack not sure on how much Warcry adds Edited August 7, 2014 by (PS4)kiddplay13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggCMan Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Yes definitely. Dual Zoren with Fury and quickening will yield I believe 1.6 speed? It's either 1.5 or 1.6, but I think 1.6. But the thing is with quickening, you need to activate channeling in order for that extra 20% speed to kick in so most people don't use it because it also takes away 80% channeling efficiency. Also with Volts Speed or Valkyrs Warcry, you can make any weapon nice and fast. But the Zorens with one of those abilities plus Fury = INSANITY!! Dual Ichors are a close second, being 1.1 speed. Also the old weapon Ether Daggers are extremely fast with Fury and such. Fang and Fang Prime are very fast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend that tells me that while channel attacking it also takes up stamina as well as energy, I havn't really seen it myself since the battles get so hectic but is this true? And on an unrelated note, which covers more distance in the shortest amount of time, Rush or Maglev? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)KestralSylver Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Wish they'd make a Corpus skin for the Zorens so they would match with Valkyr's shackle thingies. Edited August 7, 2014 by (PS4)KestralSylver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the mods favor certain weapons over others, the stats stack the same across the board. And yes, channeling energy consumes energy and stamina with each successful strike. PS Maglev is useless in my experience. Edited August 7, 2014 by (PS4)KestralSylver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar_Wolf Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Dual Zoren have an attack speed of 1.2 atks/sec. The Amphis and Scoliac have 1.3 atks/sec. So, the Amphis and Scoliac are faster, and as such have a higher potential for attack speed. Even so, with max Fury and multiple Berserker buffs, Dual Zoren can reach 2.96 atks/sec, which is nothing to scoff at. Dual Zoren also have a significantly higher crit. rate that the Scoliac and Amphis. For stances, I only have Swirling Tiger for Dual Swords, but I'm perfectly happy with that. This stance matches the Dual Zorens' Stance Polarity, so I would recommend it. It also has a combo that will slide you forward, good for closing gaps. From what I have heard actual attack speed isn't affected by any of the Dual Swords stances, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambarpowder Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 What about the fangs? I haven't used them after melee 2.0 but they used to attack thrice per click, turned the player into a meatgrinder made of needles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Bobtm0 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Yeah, the Zorens are ludicrously fast if you stack every single speed mod on them. Coptered so fast at that point I actually died... and I really do wish I was joking there. Pause combos become non-pause combos since you pretty much can't mash the melee button fast enough to not have it count as a pause. __________________ Sidebar to Crossflip about the Fangs; They've always been slower than the Zorens generally speaking. The fact that they did multi-hit stabs per actual swing is what gave a false illusion of higher speed.

(PSN)Bobtm0 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 You didn't happen to crash into a wall when you were at your top speed with your coptering, right? Nope, just had no idea how far I would go when I jumped and coptered off of a ledge, soared outward so far off of a ledge that I left the game area entirely and auto-died. The same kind of death that happens when you just fall through the map, meaning you can't even get back with a revive. Fun times, fun times. Next time I'll try and remember to be using Volt and have Speed on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViLeDeth Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 If you're going to also add on maglev plus rush, just know you don't need max stamina or recharge. You can tap slide as you run and you will glide across the ground without being in slide animation. Beware, can get slippery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attack speed on the wiki is only relative to the attack speed of items of its group, it's not relative to all the weapons. That being, the Amphis would be a fast STAFF and the Scoliac would be a fast WHIP. But not THE fastest weapon types. If the Dual Zorens are considered the fastest melee weapon in the game by the majority of the community then that means Dual Swords are the fastest weapon types.

Yazeth Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Obex crit build and melee w/ gun out is faster I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tehnoobshow Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Technically, the Fangs are the fastest weapons, since they attack three times with every press of the melee button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)Arrow_Temper Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I'm curious, I haven't used the fangs since melee 2.0 so don't know if they still attack 3 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vane- Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Ankyors Prime is fastest ( 1.3 by default) if used with all three speed mods and Fracturing Wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynick Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Scoliac and Amphis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
