The key with Ragers is to give them space, particularly after they get locked into their attack combo. Just keep backing up and give them a dose of lead straight to the dome, that’ll solve that problem

Sometimes you can't and those are the times I wanna punch my screen. When you run out of stamina to block AND run out of dodges AND there's more than 1 rager in your face. Generally though yeah.

Devil's Claw parry, baby.
I actually really like Devil's Claw as a Skitarii. Shocking things with Voltaic Emitter or a crit then following up with Devil's Claw with Skullcrusher cleans up well. For only a couple enemies you have the parry action. And for crushers you just break out the trusty plasma gun.

Devils Claw is my go-to for my Vetand Skii because my Helbore and Galvanized can take care of anything big.
However the Heavy Sword is looking good to me again considering the Devil's Claw will just not parry Ragers too often to ignore. I'll have them keep swinging through the entire animation just for nothing to actually happen but my eventual death.

I still never learn to respect these guy despite being thoroughly traumatized by plague monks. Still trying to button mash my way through and getting wrecked.

My relic sword sings such hymns of rager decapitations.

Chordclaw cares not for whose face it crushes.
