charge blades at AF crystals

I think the only sensible course of action now is to nerf shotguns again.

the swords blow without some fun to be had with them.

lol i dont think the magazines can take another low blow, but the heavy scattergun got a micro buff

crystals took way to long to destroy before, it was my least liked arkfall, this makes it less annoying

Except they wont because its useless. Guns with melee bonuses and stocks far outdmg it and u dont stand still while using them. Theyre a novelty in pvp

i saw almost the entire opposite team with them last night, the normal melee still works with the sword and it sometimes does more than the slash.

Its the same as with the infectors. If you hit a crit spot with them and keep swinging then you'll continue to do the critical damage since the game seems to register the initial hit on the crit spot as one long attack that never ends. If you stop for a sec, get hit, or change targets then you damage will revert back to normal.

You know that's going to become synonymous with Defiance now. Kind of how like Hats is the answer to everything for TF2. xD

Brutal synergy.. melee bonus roll, guerilla stock, and blur.
Crit spots on crystal suffered the same fate before the arrival of charge blades.

honestly given the cost of the blades in both rep /script the fact you must buy the dlc to use charge blades they should wipe your arse for you whilst is at it honestly they do not do enough dmg in my humble opinion and should do double what they do ..

I want to me you and your gun that way I can show you how little you even land one of those fantastic hits on me. The only thing you'll be doing is a two hop back stroke if I have blur on three without. Guns meleeing blades lol. They gave us everything to us to make sure you COULDN'T beat a blade with a gun by melee only. I've proved it to quite a few already that spoke like you. Guess you need someone to correct you also.
