0 Husla Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 All weapons are viable after forma'ing them 3-4 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hecro Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Even though I eliminated it once as soon as Melee 2.0 came in, I crafted it again and, well. Whoa, it's amazing. As a melee solo player is my best choice for Volt and Excal, both the frames I take in high level missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Your_Very_Best_Friend Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I'm fairly sure that when modded right, it can surpass the single-hit damage of the Scindo P. However DPS-wise, I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Knightmare047 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) It's a fairly strong melee and a pretty awesome one if you have the Tempo Royale stance. The first attack in the stance does a 360 degree spin and with the Galatine's long reach, you can easily clear enemies around you.

0 DoritosandDewGG Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 It is essentially a slightly worse Scindo Prime. I can live with that, not a fan of the scindo prime, I don't like the movement or feel of it. And thank you for all the replies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 RiverRatJr Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 i actually really like it. U17 gave a new mod (seismic wave) that adds 200% slam damage, using this on the galatine with the tempo royal stance is amazing, as there are 2 different combos that integrate slams into them. also the regular ground slams are now very useful.

0 BubblesTheBlob Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) I'm fairly sure that when modded right, it can surpass the single-hit damage of the Scindo P. However DPS-wise, I'm not sure. Scindo Prime is actually harder per hit (same weapon class and dominant damage types, but has slightly higher base damage), but the Galatine can out-dps it with a Cleaving Whirlwind (using same mods) due to the little extra reach on the base model (so you can hit more and more easily) and the slightly faster attack speed.

0 Kiniz Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Galatine is great vs infested. Take a cleaving whirlwind on a defense mission and go ham. If you like the greatsword idea then go for it, who cares what other people say when all most of them do is compare every weapon to the meta?

0 stoybot Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Equip these mods (melee only build): Proceed to spin-to-win with the Broken Bull combo and become a true Tenno blender. Damage output is pretty crazy against single targets and off the charts against groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage output is pretty crazy against single targets and off the charts against groups. This is a really good build. Mine has only a few differences. I personally would use a Virulent Scourge in place of the Voltaic Strike and replace the Fever Strike with a Killing Blow to double (2.1x) my damage when channeling. The damage difference isn't too great, but I do believe it would result a little higher with the 5 energy cost per devastating hit. I also have a different mod in the slot of Fury (I just use Berzerker), but I forgot what it was (and I'm at work, so I can't check). If I was to guess though, I'd say it's a True Steel to make Berzerker proc more and increase overall-DPS. I'm also pretty sure I have 1 Forma in it (a Madurai for Primed Reach).

0 (PSN)Quo_Tee Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Back in the old days of Melee 1.0 when Charge attacks weren't just for Glaives. The Galatine was king, after 2.0 hit the Galatine was De-throned by the Dakra Prime and Dragon Nikana. The Galatine is so under appreciated these days, it is better than the Scindo but worse than the scindo prime, that is why everyone is hoping for the Galatine Prime once charge attacks are re-introduced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 (XBOX)brenon45 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I will definitely still use this weapon for it's bad *** factor, but is it viable for t4 or raids? Yet to use it, just finished crafting it. Your advice or opinion? Thanks in advance :) Galatine was king...But, Galatine Prime with Reintroduced Charge Attacks will make it king once more.

0 Zachatoo Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 It's best used against groups of enemies to maximize your DPS, grab your Tempo Royale stance and charge your way through the hordes of enemy corpses! Best used with Valkyr(warcry) or Volt(speed) for optimum fun :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 6KIRA9 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Galatine has regained it's OP'ness after the heavy melee buff (it was one of the best before Melee 2.0) and it definitly can do that, either try stoybot's build or if you have Astral twilight it have a lot of multihit combos and deal a lot of damage (and proc Berserker a lot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
