We’ve been closely following community conversations regarding the “max damage” combo available to Slayers with axes. For new Slayers, this means having enough slack in combo chains to learn before having to fully commit to a multi-hit combo. Our goal is to reward master Slayers with the ability to respond to Behemoth attacks and create new opportunities on the fly as combat unwinds. Slayers will also be able to mix and match stationary and mobile attacks midway through combos. This isn’t to say that you’ll have to overcommit to your first swing, though. Attacks, charged attacks, and combos based on RC are more mobile, useful for getting your Slayer into the right spot as you’re bringing down your blade. While combos based on LC attacks will move you slightly forward with your swings, their utility is dishing out damage once you’re in the right position.
Dauntless axe build update#
This axe update will introduce a more nuanced and versatile approach to these controls.Īttacks and charged attacks mapped to LC now deal out damage from a stationary stance. The approach to date for differentiating primary (Left Click) and secondary (Right Click) attacks has been vertical and horizontal strikes, respectively. We can’t wait to see Slayers making split-second decisions to risk it all for a killing blow. Resolve rewards Slayers that have a deep knowledge of Behemoth behavior and are invested in mastering their weapon. You’ll still take damage, but your attack will not be interrupted. Resolve is temporary protection that makes these attacks uninterruptible (akin to what is sometimes called “super armour”). Perfect axe swings (those executed at the right moment during a third-level charge) and special attacks will now give the players “Resolve”. Your browser does not support the video tag. Will you be able to land your maximum-damage blow or will the Behemoth interrupt you and send you reeling? It takes grit to dig in and perfectly time these attacks, and we’re making these moments more rewarding. Hold Your GroundĪny Slayer who’s ever hefted an axe knows the tension of charging up for a top-level attack when a Behemoth is moving to strike. And that starts with making you a more uncompromising force in the hunt. Axe masters can expect better rewards for the skills. That’s why we’re enhancing the axe and its mechanics to empower players to dig in and hit harder. It’s knowing the ins and outs that allow you to adapt to every situation, slide into the perfect position, and adapt on the fly. Mastering a weapon is about more than just knowing which combo offers the most damage. As Dauntless evolves, so too will the weapons you wield. As with recent changes to the hammer, we’re committed to routinely revisiting every weapon and enhancing its capabilities.
The axe has been a favourite weapon of Slayers who love to hit hard and heap on the pressure to maximize damage. Keep it distracted,” grunted Goat, “And I’ll hit it so hard we’ll be the only thing moving out there.”> Look, just promise–can you promise me something, Goat? Can you please just promise me that you’ll get out of the way if it – when it – charges?” “Not really interested in a sword, Rasch. “Faster than anything we’ve ever fought before, Goat,” sighed Rasch, “And I’m not saying that you’re not – I just mean, do you think an axe is maybe just a little… heavy? What if we went to the smith and we got you a new sword made, mate?” That’s not– Look, what did the Farslayer say?”
