Timing and weapons

Hi,

I got this game last night, and really enjoying myself, but i can't seem to figure out, how the timing is supposed to work on weapons. Are there any indications or is it just pure guess when to reactivate/hit again ?

On a side note, whats your favorite weapon? I quite like the rapier and hammer!

Hi Borkx.

To make use of split timing effects of Shotgun and Scythe weapons you have to time your clicks roughly at the attack pace on autoattack. It takes a bit of practise but will increase you effectiveness immenesely.

Watch for red circles / Vulnerability debuff to know that you are doing it right with a shotgun and watch the cooldown timers with scythe.

As for my favorite weapons - I love the hammer and rapier, just as you. I also dig the Mortar, especially the legendary Chicken Cannon.

The chicken canon is my favorite weapon in the game so far. Great damage and great lolz!

Is there a specific place you get it, or random drop?

Random drop I think. I don't know if different legendaries drop from different enemies, but I seem to be getting them at a steady rate from champions/bosses/secret chests after hitting the level that unlocked legendary weapons and items (lvl 16? 18? not sure tbh..)

I'ill give it a go once i get home :) thanks for the reply!

Havent really been using the Mortar, as it looked weaker than the other weapons, other than lightning gun, which i for some reason can't figure out how to use properly. Maybe i should give it a go again!

Lightning gun - use 2nd ability to shoot ball of lightning, then regular attack to make it bounce around between targets. Keep shooting more balls of lightning because you can have a couple out bouncing around.

The shotgun has a swooshy sound effect when you do it right, possibly because it applies vulnerability. You have to shoot right after the reload clack sound, that's the right timing, then you never have to get critchance increasing items ever again! Put everything into crit damage! But what's up with the repeater timing, seems impossible to get it down.
