Soooo the Vaykor Sydon Passive......

[fake (rat)]

First off, I really, really wanna say;

DE, if you see this, please use this idea or edit the passive in some way.

Okay, so as we all know, the Vaykor Sydon passive ability is a bit.....eh.....useless.


Problem(s)

Very, very short blind radius
Short blind duration
Too high requirement to charge up

Solutions(s)

Lower charge up from x15 to x10 or x7
Increase range and duration of blind


Because blocking with a melee does not negate all incoming damage, and generally if you're trying to blind a enemy it's to run away, the high charge up requirement is rather pointless and defeats the purpose of the blind. To put it simply: You'll be dead before you can release the blind in most cases where you actually need it. Oh, and if you're planning to use the blind to do finishers, that's also pointless as you'll only have time to perform a finisher on 1 enemy.

I personally feel the passive itself is flawed, being the if you release your block for even a second you lose all your charge, but goes back to how it could be fixed with lowering the requirement from x15 blocks to something like x7 or x10.

Personally, I could live with it if you just decreased the blocks requirement, because then it'd be more easily spammable and make up for the short duration and range of the blind. If you'd like to go the other route and increase range/duration, that works too.

Just please edit the passive a bit.

I have a great idea, bring Zenurik maxed energy regen per second and use channeled blocking.

That doesn't fix this passive.

But you take no dmg so you don't die. It's a temporary solution. Also grab some channel efficiency and bam..

I just picked up Vahkore Sydon and ran it with Equniox in a grineer mobile defense with Primed Pressure point and r6 Primed Reach and was pretty satisfied If you havent tried it with reach on, i would do it right away. The blind range was fairly decent, on par i would say with a a low range Excal blind. As far as blocking, i guess it comes down to personal preference. I would like to see it not lose the multiplier if you jump/flip. I ddint have a problem with working the multiplier up, but i agree it could use some tweaks. All in all an interesting mechanic that i will be working into my frame/weapon pairings.

I don't have the wep, but if you take too much damage, bring zenurik maxed energy regen and use channeled blocking. If it takes too much energy for you, put on some efficiency mods.
