Hate Or Reaper Prime

[Compose]

Hello~!

I have read and asked this question many times and it seems as though Hate is better. But i also heard that reaper prime is suppose to get a buff to its damage?

 

So if possible could someone explain why hate is actually better? I think it has less speed but more damage 

 

reaper prime has 100% stagger though isnt that good as well? 

 

Thank you ~!

Hate because it does more damage, but has a lower charge speed, which can be fixed via mods.

Hate does do more charge dmg, but according to somenes calculations reaper prime has the higher dps due to its faster swing speed. Calculations from wiki

 

"For those who truly think that Reaper Prime would be 'useless', 'weak' or 'good for nothing' and worse than hate... Here's so news for you. Reaper Prime does do less damge, but it's charge speed makes up to it. I did some calculations and I noticed that Reaper prime has better DPS, not only primaty attacks but charge attacks too. Hate does (about) 95,2 damage per second, and Reaper Prime does 103.2 damage per second. Hate for single attacks, Reaper for bigger number of enemies when there's use for fast charge speed."

hate has only 40 more charge dmg so reaper is faster and has the stagger bonus

Personally I went with Hate because of the higher damage.

 

Reaper prime has its advantages, such as serrated blade jump aoe and 100% stagger but it comes with less damage.

Reaper, love it. I have both, the swing speed of the Reaper is awesome. Plus it has 100% stagger.

 

Hate is still good, though the Reaper is just that little bit better imo.

The Prime already got that buff.

[SubZeroMaster]

so in theory which does prime excell at, normal attacks or charged ones?

^ thank you for all the reply and initiate that is a godo question o_o

I prefer to use prime for basic melee swings.

I'm not sure if it is fixed but hate has a awkward delay moment after jump attack and also after ground finisher attack that is not found in reaper prime.

[RoboDoge]

try both and see which one you like better.

I still use the Hate. Because damn, Reaper Prime is ugly as hell in my eyes.
