Brynslustafir Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Yes. It's one of the best melee weapons you can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paragasu Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Still like my ortos prime better even thou I buy skin for my dragon nikana.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanyr Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Yeah, kind of hard to see the real value of a weapon when you're fighting level 1 enemies, but it is a good weapon regardless. It's hands down my favorite weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profoak0117 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Its great but...any melee can destroy lvl 1 enemies :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 This is how I run with Dragon Nikana! It's a great weapon, indeed. Orthos Prime is still the best weapon ingame though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)lolyman21 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 I know it was level 1 enemies but i've never done a kill streak going for that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WERElektro Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 All this hype over asian weapons... Something I never understood... not in games, and not in real life. dmg or no dmg... that thing is ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)bLaiiSe_go_brrr Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Yeah! <3 the Decisive Judgement stance. Blind Justice looks awkward IMHO. This is how I run with Dragon Nikana! It's a great weapon, indeed. Orthos Prime is still the best weapon ingame though. That would be the Dakra Prime with Crimson Dervish stance, my friend. The Orthos can't kill with 1 hit after 40 mins T3/4S with Loki, but the Dakra can. And don't get me started on the combo that ends with the finisher opening attack.Range is good on the Orthos but the damage just drops off fast.

indaris Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 that thing is ugly. I think you're in the minority here. It's a beautiful weapon which fits the Tenno aesthetic perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)SofeSNBR Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Meh.... dual ichors are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WERElektro Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I think you're in the minority here. It's a beautiful weapon which fits the Tenno aesthetic perfectly. I think so... I was actually worried if I should really voice my opinion.... maybe I'd end up being torn apart by angry nikana fanboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sappinmahsentry Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) I'm more of a fan of any weapon with Tempo Royale. I think so... I was actually worried if I should really voice my opinion.... maybe I'd end up being torn apart by angry nikana fanboys. I think it looks fine, I just wish we had actually fun stances. Right now my favorite weapons are the Scindo Prime w/ Tempo Royale, Tonbo, and Redeemer. Edited May 7, 2015 by sappinmahsentry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't be torn since that would require the blade to not be perfectly sharp. You would get slashed apart though. There is a difference.

(PSN)DrHildibrand Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 HAhaaha XD okay.... But I'd easily block your ... japanese butter knifes with my glorious Orthos prime *shinyyyyyy* I would rather just shank you on my Loki with my Fanged primes. /shrug In all seriousness, I have been cut by a non-sharpened blade before. It was painful. I would prefer a sharp knife any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sappinmahsentry Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 HAhaaha XD okay.... But I'd easily block your ... japanese butter knifes with my glorious Orthos prime *shinyyyyyy* I would easily either throw away your Orthos with my Tonbo or just completely destroy it with a ScindoP or a Redeemer.

My Orthos prime is speshul. You can not destroy it... it's powerlvl is over 9000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 That would be the Dakra Prime with Crimson Dervish stance, my friend. The Orthos can't kill with 1 hit after 40 mins T3/4S with Loki, but the Dakra can. And don't get me started on the combo that ends with the finisher opening attack. Range is good on the Orthos but the damage just drops off fast. Dakra has higher damage than Orthos Prime and yet, it doesn't even come close to Orthos Prime when we're talking killing efficiency. The only melee weapons that can compete against Orthos Prime are the other polearms (Orthos, Serro, Tonbo). Orthos Prime true potential comes from its insane range and slide attack. Especially from fast-slides. Since you pointed out 40 mins of T3S / T4S, Orthos Prime does great in an hour long run. I'd like to be proven wrong, but from what I experienced for the past two years by playing melee-only, Orthos Prime is currently the best. And yes, I do have all the melee weapons and stances (except for Four Riders stance). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranks21 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 if you cant kill an enemy with orthos p in one hit at 40 mins and above you clearly haven't modded it right or just using quick melee which can down level 100 with a one hit slam or slide attack without chanelling. and there is a reason why many players that has all these weapons still falls back to orthos p because its that good.

Noble_One Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I know it was level 1 enemies but i've never done a kill streak going for that long. i find that very VERY hard to believe that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Alex_Traffo Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I do prefer Skana Prime now that the augment made it viable, but yea, Dragon Nikana is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
