New Insect Glaive

[Tebza Ngwana]

How are you guys coping with it? :') I managed to keybind it to work like WORLD but the descending thrust part is throwing me off when pairing it with focus mode for a guaranteed hit.

I LOVE the new Insect Glaive, personally.

I was playing Glaive on MnK in World, but the addition of focus mode means I think I need a controller for thix one.

I spent an hour getting accustomed to it with mouse and keyboard, ITS SO FLIPPIN COOL MAN. My favourite move so far is the Focus Thrust: Leaping strike! :D

Get a mouse with two thumb buttons.

Set one to “special” attack. Like guard or spirit slash. The other focus toggle.

They'll be kicked out of my games if they spam Aerial bounce like they did in World.

yup, this kind of mouse works very well for the glaive. the controls were nigh perfect in world.

LMFAO. I know how you feel man

Pre-helicopter returning: easily the best iteration of Glaive we've seen to date. The controls flow perfectly on controller without Claw grip. People just don't know how to press and hold the B/O button with their thumb while also using that same thumb to hit A/X or Y/△. It's really not hard or uncomfortable. Aiming with focus mode between attacks and using "center on target" to reposition the camera while charging your attack is also easy and intuitive

Lol, you reported my message to the moderators. Like it is happening the first time.
Literally everyone ignores you and when people call you out, you report their messages. Sad, how sad.

[it's a gabe]

I think there are some great ideas, but something about it feels way off. It feels slower for me and I sure don't love that you need all three extracts for the improved moveset.

Glavie is broken right now, i got some kind of bug, pun not intended, when I shoot with kinsect after latching to the wound with 1500+ dmg. 2k+ dmg with full combo.
It's broken, but so enjoyable.

I just tried it, I love that indicates which element will be collected from whatever part of the monster. But it feels a little clunky when using insect. I'll have to investigate it more. Fun so far though

Feels like a whole different weapon, not sure if I'm digging it tbh. Might just need more time with it. It's strong sure, but doesn't feel as free-flowing fun the world one had.

Didn't Capcom say that they made a bunch of changes to IG after the first beta and they won't be implemented until the full game? If so, be aware that what you're experiencing now is not how the weapon will work in a few weeks.

oh yes, i'm aware. I guess for now we'll call this one training wheels before handling the big wheels XD

Yea, people just didn't understand how good Nu-IG was.
