Let's Talk About War & Broken-War

[kitto☆]

I already have the war bp from stalker, but is it even worth it to build the War? Which actually does higher damage? (Tbh I'm not a fan of heavy weapons due to the slow attack speed, maybe you could recommend any heavy weapons that has high attack speed?) So anyways, I could build War right now, but after building War, you need War to build "Broken-War" which drops from stalker. Isn't that weird? DE TROLLS.

I don't understand needing a broken weapon to make its full version, but I do understand needing the whole weapon to take 12 or so hours to snap it in half.

I think at this point the de-stressor is the top single target dps weapon so I'd say shoot for making war.
1) More mastery
2) Nice with crit builds (which berserker speeds it up)
3) Great on volt and/or valkyr as they both can speed up attack speed.

You basically just get anything that you can level up for affinity to rank up your mastery, the deciding factor of keeping it is based on your liking for that item. I got like most of the weapon warframe has to offer, and some of them are quite underpowered for late game.

Trade a bunch, save platinum, buy the Hunhow's Gift bundle.

That's what I did, and I haven't regretted my decision- I get to have both War and Broken-War (both with potatoes), and got some nice cosmetics on top of that.

Broken war = single blade, slash damage, "low" reach(continue reading), high speed.
War = Two-handed sword, impact damage, masive reach(compared to broken war), low speed.

They both are good.
- Broken one is good for dealing damage to targets one at a time since it will just obliterate anything that gets hit. It's a decent weapon. However, I find it's "normal" reach a bit... Lacking. Compared to War. High speed makes it even better, if used for exactly for the right purpose - killing enemies quickly, but one by one. ALtho I think of it as a downside when you use Berserk+Valkyr Warcry... It's way too fast for me to do proper combos.
- War is good for massive crowds of enemies - like Infested(any mission) or even grineer/corpus on survival, when they kinda pile up in one place. It's low speed is a great downside... Unless you use Berserk+Valkyr Warcry. It absolutely devastates everything, if you use Tempo Royale stance, combo with that little explosive knockdown in the end. August Mesto it is called, I guess..?

So it only is up to you what do you like more. Kill enemies quick, slashy, but one by one... Or quick(wth valk and berserk), smashy and in full crowds.


P.s. Get the Hunhow Gift pack for plat and get both weapons. I got it. And I like the normal War more than the broken one. Coz reasons.

I don't "like" heavy weapons because of the "attack style". When I first used Galatine (my first heavy weapon) I barely used it cause the attack style or speed freaking sucks. Even with a maxed fury, the attack style lacks and your enemies can still hit you while your next attack is just so slow. Any stances that can make the attack speed faster?

The good part is that hitting you while you're swinging a massive sword is like hitting a mountain.

Also got hunhow's gift pack. And as much as I groaned about the cost, I rather like the cosmetics & being able to have both makes the horder in me happy.
As far as which one I generally use; War. Why? Looks cool, crits everything like crazy, long reach, and fits my favorite melee frames: valk and volt, nicely.
Edit: Also 85% dmg reduction while blocking w/war

I just want to try War without wasting my freaking potatoed broken war on a slow attack styled heavy weapon. If you guys have a "spare" stance for a heavy weapon that makes the attack style or attack speed faster, be sure to send me a friend request, username: princekit_

Warcry + speed + fury + berserker + that spinny spin stance = let it rip

[No u]

the only problem i have with hunhow's gift is that pakal armor is pretty bugged when used with mirage's eclipse, it lights up weirdly and has some blocky textures
and considering how i use mirage almost everywhere it's a real pest

Is Galatine and War's attack style different? Because War has vengeful renevent in it right?

[kitto☆]

No, I meant that broken war, hate and war has a pre-installed vengeful renevant attack style. So as I was saying, does war and galatine have the same attack style?
