Sophronius Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) I honestly can't wait for the rework. Perhaps Mag shall be viable for more than just Corpus... And the sentients. I now know why Mag was deployed for (I presume) the Vanguard assault against the Sentients. I have documented via video what the old bullet attractor can do so that we can see how it compares to the rework, Magnetize. The results might be quite overpowered. (If that's your opinion) Mag, the bane of Sentients. EDIT: I believe some people might be missing that the Battalyst in the video is level 100. I state this for clarity of Mag's abilities.

OverlordMcGeek Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I am on the fence with the reduced range. I used BA as a choke point so I wouldn't get shot. Upped her survivability to stupid high amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)BULLS 0N PAR4DE Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 My mag can crush other factions just fine. Might not be as BA as corpus but we you build her right she is great as is. The rework does look very very interesting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty5 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I'll give her a go, which is more than I can say for regular mag. Last I used her was Viver spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeerioJim Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Damn, thats a nice colour scheme and helmet/skin for Mag you got there. And yeah mag is a fun frame, Im looking forward to her rework. My old starter frame getting some new air is going to be neat. I really hope another unvaulting or Starchart 3.0 will bring Mag Prime out for me too, I really want her prime version!

I have a feeling Mag Prime may come back out of the vault quite soon. Patience, Tenno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they have high shields Banshee does it better. Although mesa is my go to sentient killer. She can actually facetank most of their BS and can kill with her ulti.

Miser_able Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I don't know why but sometimes with a bow it will hit multiple times within BA if it has a high enough punchthrough and I hope magnetize keeps this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until I see even a single well performing saryn in endgame, which means lvl 80+ enemies, I sadly have to assume she is useless now. You can tell me all you want about how wrong everyone builds her. I see lokis, ash, I see frost even, I see valk, I see excal and I see sometimes even nova and inaros... but I DONT see saryn anywhere in endgame.

Banshee is very good for damage but BA has aimbot mechanics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lanka is the hardest hitting single shot damage of any sniper I've seen so far. It does have drawbacks, however. Paired with BA it can be nasty and BA is mostly why you saw that damage number.

Keep in mind that the Supra is still faster on kill time. But the lanka pulls second best. If it's not a battalyst or a bursa you should be able to one shot with the Lanka. The supra will do better against High HP and Armor enemies. I can 90% of the time (10% very unlucky damage proc) one shot a 100 eximus heavy gunner with the Lanka.

Actually haven't seen a saryn yet in endgame at all. But you are welcome to prove me wrong and do a T4S 60+ mins with me using saryn. Go to the simulacrum with Saryn. Get a high damage simulor and use 1 and 4 whilst spamming thy simulor. You may be surprised. I have seen only a few saryn running end game content and doing so quite well. Most of them are using a method similar to what I described. Keep testing until you've exhausted all possibilities to making an ability powerful. A conclusion drawn too immediately will not yield discovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
