Finally - Sword and Shields are getting buffs

Isn't there a mod that makes blocking reflect damage?

As hyped as I am for everything on the devstream, the last thing that I wanted to hear about was a change to blocking that doesn't address how useless it is for Daggers/Whips/Tonfas/Nunchuks.

 

I mean, at a 35% reduction, you might as well just never block against high-level enemies since you're going to be oneshotted anyway.

Pretty much my thoughts in quote.

You know, that makes no sense to me.

Wouldn't a Dagger be one of our best options for blocking bullets?

It's small, it's fast, and due to it's speed and our power, we should be able to knock away every single bullet.

Although, for blocking in general, all weapons should have a real reason to block.

Get rid of Rage and replace with Stretch for better Chaos. If Nyx is taking hits she'll be dead before you can get any use out of Rage due to her low armor.

rage works with my play style ^. ^

I personally feel that each melee weapon type should have it's own niche filling passive.

Separate from passives such as the Lesion's and Syndicate melee that cover the entire weapon type.
