dafuq is wrong with lament CONSTANTLY dashing through enemies??

[Bouncy Boner Forest]

after reving the blade and starting banshees wail thing, lament just starts dashing through stuff on the 3rd or 4th light attack or the last heavy one. my reticle is on the enemy all the time and it still does this ♥♥♥♥.

unplayable in harder content.

this is madness.

It has always been wonky to use, which is the 'supposed' skill cap on it - not mastering different combos, just mastering the ability to never bother using it unless you're on a flat surface.

If there is any difference in elevation, at all, it's as you describe. Even the glitchy invisible gaps in some older areas will cause it to happen. You'll swing past the enemy and ruin the entire combo.

i found it happens less often while looking on the ground while comboing. not sure tho, maybe i was just lucky. i dunno.

flat surface you say huh? that explains alot.
i played the quarry sector with it before... no flat surface at all lmao.
it was so painfull and almost unplayable.

Why are you wasting time on a 3rd or 4th light attack? Put on lucent blade mod in your chest armor and use 2 revved light attacks into the revved heavy attack then use 2 normal light attacks while your energy recharges and then do another 2 revved light attacks in revved heavy.

i know the combo. it still does not change the fact lock on is garbage on lament and the heavy attack will dash through stuff alot.

I don't go through enemies anymore since they fixed that years ago and I don't know if it helps but I usually hold the backwards key (S) while doing it so maybe give that a try? If you're using a controller then I don't know what to tell you.

Cap your framerate to <60 and hold backwards during the combo.

What I do is toggle it for something like Crota DPS, so enjoy the clean 144 until damage when I swap to <60.

Higher fps has to do with a lot of things in this 30 fps console game unfortunately.

[Are you sure?]

Bungie should add a soulsbourne-like lock-on mechanic while using swords. Trying to use melee weapons in a 3rd-person camera with no lock on always feels awkward to use

Oddly some have tracking. If you happen to sword skate you know what I mean. Most annoying when trying to yeet yourself and you do a 360 degree turn and wack a thrawl outside of FOV

BRUH! I HATE it when it does that. I don't know why normal sword slashes don't really work that well like that
