weapon types

[xSHiNOx]

i still do not think a force's attack is based on mst. its more like the weapon. since they excel at magic, their default mst will be high. add a staff/wand/slicer and it will be even higher BUT that doesnt mean that the staff/wand/slicer will do a lot of damage if you attacked melee style with it. you got to have high attack for the staff/wand/slicer to do lots of damage IMO

so wait... there is no more shotguns!? ._.

....

Firing a Gunslash = Shotgun from PSU

[Roam88]

u mean it has spread?

[Amherst_Wind]

It fires 3 bullets just like a regular shotgun in PSU does, if you're close to an enemy all 3 hits register, if you're further away you can aim and hit 3 different enemies. It really is a PSU shotgun.

sounds overpowering IMO

i think the gunslashes are weak. the holding L and press attack to shoot or the 3 hit combos.

[Amherst_Wind]

Yeah, Gunslashes are versatile but they're weak point is they arent very powerful, using it as a melee weapon its effectively a Saber, 3 hits on a single enemy, but Gunslashes dont have as much ATP as most Sabers.

I found they have better PAs. The one that Kai uses, for example, is probably the best PA I've seen in the game. I think that's where the balance comes in. Plus, 3-shotting something does stacks of damage, it's a good finisher and you can't chain on the last hit anyway.

[Amherst_Wind]

Yeah, Assault Blast (I think) is amazing for bosses, also Zero Impact is a pretty good, both of those PAs have great % modifiers too. The only weak Gunslash PA is Bullet Dance, hard to aim and bad % modifiers.

Hey are slicers any good?
