Does Anyone Have A Reach Mod?

[iBread]

Does it really work?


got around 9 copies of it, was thinking of wasting the extra mod points on it

Edit: and I just noticed this is posted in Gen.Discussion ._. was gonna post it on PhP section

hard to say. difference is very small. it isn't really noticeable. you can test it with resource boxes

[iBread]

I asked cuz, I was wondering if what if it doesn't really work..
 

what if it doesn't work with scindo but it works on others.. probably the max range for weapons will have the same range with scindo

[Loki.]

the range is un-noticeable only for short ranged weapons. heavy weapons... you'll see a difference with with a level 1 reach mod

[Meenmu]

Man, I have been looking for one. My Hate is almost perfect; Reach is all it needs now.

Moved to PhP for ya.

Tested it with a maxed scindo.. tried to kill mobs that we're on the other side of the pod....


so at 60% max and scindo does around 2m meters swing range.. shouldn't be that 3.2 or 3.5m? that should be enough to kill 2 layers of mobs (sadly we can only kill 3 mobs per normal swing and no idea on the charge)

mods on my scindo

It makes a BIG difference, but primarily to weapons with a larger attack area to begin with, ie test it on Orthos it gets a huge reach increase

Question: does anyone know if it effects the AOE of JUMPING attacks?  because if it does Scindo, Fragor and Hate are gunna be brutal

[DetergentPod]

I do notice a difference on the Orthos. That is about it. I do notice a slight difference in Dual Zoren.

[sambarpowder]

I found mine on Friday. Maxed it and stuck it in my orthos. Definitely worth it.

[iBread]

I still have to max out my Orthos...

but now I'm sure it doesn't work with scindo

I'm hesitant to say I've definitely confirmed this to be true, but I've used Hate for a while before finding a Reach mod, and now I've got one maxed, and, well....the knockdown does seem to hit units at about the same distance as many 10m aoe attacks. It's pretty crazy and I'm constantly surprised with how far away units are getting knocked down by it.

It works okay imo. But a better benefit would be if melee weapons would kill more than 3-4 mob enemies in one charge swing when this mod is equipped.

It seems to really depend on the weapon. I had it on dual ethers and it was very noticeable. It was also fantastic. Would recommend.

I thought it only works on normal swings, not charged?

[Neoshroomish]

doesn't work on charged attacks, ie completely useless

[tantananan]

Does Reach affect the range of the AOE of jump attacks?

[Inconmon]

Sure it doesn't work on charge attacks? People are saying different in the wiki

[Lord_zasca]

N00B QUESTION ALERT!!!!

does a certian group drop them?

[Tulzscha]

Max Reach works very well on weapons that already have long reach to begin with, e.g Gram. You will notice it when swinging, enemies are seemingly getting hit by a gap of air from the tip of the blade lol.

 

As for drops, they drop like candy in any void mission pretty much.

[Saenol]

Rank 2 and 3 reach was quite noticeable, even on my Cleavers.

[Llokii]

Reach + Orthos.  That is all.
