So, Is The Destreza End Game Viable?

[Floppuh]

So we've all seen the Destreza, all loved how it looked and contemplated suicide while farming the stance.

BUT

 

Above all that, could it actually have some use in end game, endless survivals, sorties etc. I've forma'd it once, and I'd have to say it's doing really well at lvl 40 missions, so I think it could have SOME potential.

 

So, all you minmaxers out there, do you think it'd be viable, and if so, how well would it fare against something like Dragon Nikana, Broken War or Jat Kittag?

one of the combos has a finisher at the end, so yes.

course I consider end game to be like lvl 90+, which not many melees will do well against unless your using a frame with active stealth or one of the combos has a built in finisher.

One of Vulpine Mask's combos opens the enemy up for a finisher.. @_@ It also has quite a few damage multipliers, which is nice. 

 

This vid makes the weapon look bloody awesome.

It is not bad, but not any good at end game.

Does the pope take a dump in the woods?

Well the built-in finisher in one of the combos pretty much oneshots any enemy up to level 100 due to it piercing armor. It also inflicts an incredible amount of slash procs which will happily eat away at high level targets.

 

I'd say it's definitely viable.

Melee in general isn't really viable in 'end game' unless it's on a frame with series boosts to it.

 

But the Destreza itself isn't bad, nor amazing. I would guess it's about on par with the D Nikana, behind the Jat and waaaaay behind the Broken War (like just about everything else is).

... and waaaaay behind the Broken War (like just about everything else is).

My war +beserker with tempo royale tend to disagree with you.
