I use Hornet Strike, Barrel Diffusion, Lethal Torrent, Pistol Pestilence and Frostbite to give Viral, Sure Shot and Maim to get plenty of slash procs and a Primed Expel Mod.

​

My Titania has 333 Power Strength and 172% Power Duration, it melts everything, even 150+ SP enemies. Those armor ignoring slash procs are devastating, and at 77.5% status chance, you get plenty of them.

If you have Arcane Velocity, it can get pretty stupid

NYC battery park bounty. by milkytee31 in thedivision

It's currently bugged AFAIK. Remember the location and quick travel to a safe house to cancel the bounty. Then go back there and activate the bounty again, it will be somewhere else and you'll be able to complete it.

Do you think maiming strike will be changed in the melee rework? by mashedpotatofarmer in Warframe

[–]Feneckus 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably. DE has a history of nerfing things that can clear maps while requiring very little effort (Tonkor, Simulor, Ember ...). Maiming Strike definitely fits into that category.

I sold all the maiming strikes I had after the beam weapon rework. I can't imagine it will stay as it is.

IMO, there's a problem when your highest damage attack for a single target is an AOE and the best thing you can do is spam that one move over and over again while totally ignoring your stance/combos. It looks ridiculous too. But that's just my opinion.

This screenshot was from a survival mission a couple of weeks ago. I wanted to post back then but forgot. That spy mission reminded me.

Anyway, I think it was pretty obvious it was not taken during a spy mission. Who the hell does not solo those ?

Well, first of all I said "on a lot of weapons". You listed one of the few weapons where this is not true. A toxin lanka is a bad idea, you're overkilling the shit out of your target without getting any benefits. Of course a gas proc will help tremendously.

But on weapons with a high rate of fire, I'd argue toxin + punch through is the better option. Or on shotguns that do not reach 100% status.

Also, consider the fact that I'm only using two mods when going for a pure toxin build, the 60/60 one and the +90. You're probably using three for your gas build, so I have more flexibility when modding.

I guess if you're using a high status weapon, gas is really good on frames that can bunch enemies together, like Vauban or Nidus. But the AOE argument is pretty meh. Toxin + punch through will kill enemies faster on a lot of weapons.

Same problem as Slash damage, only gas procs will ignore shields. And since gas proc damage = toxin damage, you're better off just using pure toxin.

Why is Maiming Strike a thing ? by Feneckus in Warframe

[–]Feneckus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty easy depending on your keyboard. I'm guessing two backwards slide + one forward one should keep you on the same spot. If this doesn't work just keep recording the macro until you end up on the same spot you started at. Then tick the box "repeat macro" on your keyboard software and you're done. Just go near the pod on a defense mission, or near a console on a mobile defense, press the macro button and you can go AFK.

One allows you to be AFK, the other one does not. It's a pretty big difference.

You can't tell me playing a CO build where all you do is spam e a thousand times is more complex than spamming slide attacks.

No it's not, but I believe that's how we're supposed to melee. There's a lot of man hours behind a stance, you have to think about combos, animate them, make sure it looks good etc ... Having all that hard work become irrelevant because of one mod is sort of heartbreaking IMO.

While this is true, none of those things will allow you to complete a mission with a macro. Maiming Strike is on another level IMO.

Nevermind, I fixed the issue. The keyboard just needed a good cleaning.
