Power Fist is Trash?

[imsouporcereal]

Its strings are very slow. The Perk that gives an armor point for landing Back Fist 2 takes so long to get to that by the time I throw it out, half my health is gone to mobs or the Majoris has retreated too far away.

I feel like the Fist needs some kind of Ground Pound string like the Chainsword stomp.

Am I doing something wrong or is the Power Fist just trash?

I felt like it was the worst melee weapon in the game, unlocking purple fencing variant made it alot better but yeah, it still feels like the worst melee weapon but now its usable atleast.

I have the purple fencing variant and I’m still struggling to find the flow for it.

I like power fist, it's a different playstyle, very slow. Takes time to get used to.

It felt really bad in comparison to the chainsword/combat knife.

Chainsword is by far my favorite so far.

fencing one is good for bulwark parry-shock build, but swinging the powerfist, it's struggling to kill anything or stagger anything, melee weapon sucks in this game.

Yeah, it seems useless on the Assault.

I havent tried the fist yet, but have you tried using it like a melta? IIRC it has some range to it.

Assault doesn’t get a primary. No Melta.

I run Melta/Chainsword on my Vanguard and I’m literally unkillable.

ive been using it with minimal effect. cant get bogged in, just hit and run really, ingor combos. pretty much i dodge strike dodge strike, throw in a heavy if i can.

i only play it because the tyrinid finisher is best in game with it

The Power Fist needs the Heavy ae stomp.

This is kinda kinky

Jokes apart, the weapon is too slow, not enough versatile and struggles staggering.
