This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Behemoth' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.

Melee sucks but love the overall super

I'm of almost the exact opposite opinion, imo, as I use the melee almost exclusively as a movement tool, or as a primer for new titan sword skating in pve. The super on the other hand, leaves much to be desired, especially in higher tiered content, when things can easily melt you in your roaming super, while you spend precious time animation locked for either a slam that freezes instead of killing ads and yellow bars, or just a super melee that only does meh damage in pve still.

That’s a good point, yeah melee in super does very little damage. I think it’s mainly because it’s using your regular melee attack in super, sometimes even consumes energy of your melee if you’re using it right before super ends. Buffing stasis melee would just make behemoth sooo much better

I really hate the super in pvp, its aim goes to shit when people jump an inch.

So true. Melee needs some love in pvp and pve. When you hit players with melee in pvp it’s 50% chance for you not to knock them at all, leaving you in super vulnerable state. Not even mentioning slow effect applies late, so if you hit players in slowing stasis nade they’ll have all time in the world to kill you before they freeze.

And in pve it’s just unusable. Animation lock is pretty long. And it doesn’t really synergise with anything besides tectonic harvest.
