PakkiTheDog Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) This weapon is receiving a bit more of a mechanic change rather than a purely numerical change. The Slide attack will create a vortex that staggers and draws enemies toward you. The following Slide attack (after a vortex) will radial blast and ragdoll enemies away from you. This 'back and forth' will be on a cooldown. Edited March 22, 2017 by NovusNova Content Moderated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zortyx Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 So if i'm reading this right it means my favourite crate opener can no longer open crates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rakosta_Kai Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Given DE's history with changes, this was the initial tune-down. ... Those tend to be pretty nice comparatively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husla Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Vortex idea is cool but having that 2nd slide effect seems unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Yeah, because reducing your whole gameplay to just spamming slide attacks and macroing it like people did in 2013 is incredibly fun and not harmful to the game at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a fun effect and it's strong, so what. Nerf the dmg, not the effect. Maiming can be used on a lot more weapons other than the Boltace tho.

(PSN)Lei-Lei_23 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Us console users can't macro like our PC bretherens, but hey we're getting the S#&$-end of the stick due to bad gamers and/or community members that dislike the Telos Boltace. ... Great. Also, if I might add, Telos Boltace is the one weapon that the Arbiters of Hexis had that was exceedingly any good. Nerfing it to this degree now makes it pretty undesirable. 7 minutes ago, PakkiTheDog said: It has a fun effect and it's strong, so what. Nerf the dmg, not the effect. ^This.

Apparently you don't know how many people only play using macros, because Maiming Strike allows it to be such an absurd weapon unless you're against really high level enemies. Btw this nerf doesn't make Maiming Strike useless, it's still the same niche with the same long ranged weapons (whips/polearms), only not as broken.

Yakhul Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I may be missing something, but since i cannot find the source of this nerf, where are you looking this? Do they are finally fixing this joke of a weapon that makes my life and many others miserable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, i use it on high lvl missions, and it's fun when a team8 is down and suraunded whit enemies and you main equip telos boltace and do a bunch of slide attacks to clear out and revive.

Telos boltace is not the only Meele and maiming is not the only mod, go run experiments and find your own favorite weapon instead of spending plat on being hand fed ways to play.

Idk why everybody immediately sees me as a noob by complaining about the nerf. I have a bunch of other melee weapons that i love to play whit, but telos boltace is the weapon that i pick in toughest situations. Yes, it is strong, but so what. There needs to be the best weapon in the game, so why can't it be TB. I'd be ok whit a dmg nerf, but nerfing the reason why this weapon is fun...

DrBorris Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I would rather it just always suck things in (to your insane slide damage) without the "explosive" secondary spin attack, it would be more reliable and, IMO, useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not because you are complaining, it's because you see the TB as a one trick pony, that's a basic mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
