I don't even know what to say now. Klaw is useless? YOU ARE USELESS YA GROTS! I used it almost exclusively today and krumped many tanks/transports and gits! How people can have such huge differences in game play is beyond me. Just gonna say you gits need to calm down and remember the super man punch is gone. You never needed it either. I guess I'm just saying GET GOOD YA GROTS!
I never said useless. I even said I did better due to the problems and rps ignores. It just seemed so wonky that it felt unfun go use. I want it to work right eachtime. I don't wanna win because this time was a random oneshot or that time I ignore a fast attack entirely with a power attack.
Have never had the Klaw do any of that for me. Clangs when it should, dbash is wonky in general for everyone so can't say much there, but quick and power attask are fine.
It was a really weird night. It made me think maybe. I Was on an EU server possibly with how crazy everything was being. At one point I power hit a tank that was like 6 feet away from my swing. Another time my power attack killed a guy not really close to me. I had a lot of fights with 0 clangs. Just seemed odd cause my ms was like 35-50 the whole time.
Well it's happening to me, and others, I think part of the problem is the fact that the Klaw attacks incredibly slow and most factions have a ton of iFrames on their rolls so often times you land hits but it is in the middle of iFrames and it does no damage. If you should hit a Klaw attack and it doesn't register, you have lost the encounter. The Klaw is an "all or nothing" weapon, when you hit it is like a Trukk but when you miss you die. In addition I've had hits do 0 damage. Finally, unlike all of our enemies' weapons, the Klaw light attack absolutely cannot catch another player if they are sprinting away, so good luck trying to defend a Trukk from a Melta user or FD because they can literally kite you all day. There is nothing more tragic than another player just outright ignoring the Klaw as they roast your transport and you can do nothing but attempt to shoot them with your sidearm or taunt furiously like some maniac. The superman lunge was right to go, but we need some sort of initiation. It's broken. Big time. A total waste of 500LP points. But the execution keeps me coming back for more...
Well the speed issue I'm starting to think is a server issue mostly. Last night I was playing my spikey boy with a chain axe and having tons of hit registration issues. I decide to switch back to my chainsword build mid game then suddenly all those problems disappear! Not sure what is up but my theory at this moment is slower weapons are losing in fights to faster weapons due to server lag. So, what I'm saying is, the problem is not the Klaw. Never been the Klaw. You're just getting lagged to death it happens to everyone. Also, again, my experience is completely different to yours as I've krumped plenty of gits trying to destroy my trukk with the Klaw. Yea, they can outrun you but you have a slugga equipped for a reason ya grot! Sprint attack, then if they run, gun em down! I don't think you gits realize how good our pistols are. Hell I was outgunning DAs yesterday with my dakka slugga.
You think you can outgun a Multimelta or Melta?! With your pistol?! No. Just, no. Certainly not with the Slab or Dakka Slugga. It' makes no difference anyway, because they kite us around the Trukk, destroying it before we can do enough damage to kill them. Does that make sense? Is it clear? I'm not bothered about killing them, my beef is that I can't protect the Trukk. It's not "whiny grot talk" you tit, Orks are losing, lots. This will show in the data and it will be acted upon. You can blame it on lag. You can tell yourself that "I'm a noob" or whatever else you want to dream up but regardless we are significantly weaker compared to CSM and LSM as of now. The Klaw does not work properly, I rarely have lag and it has the same problems when it isn't lagging at all. Enemies repeatedly hit me through attacks and my attacks repeatedly don't register. It's a mess.
What I dont understand is why it doesn´t work. Is a copy paste of the PF, yet it has so many glitches. Maybe the next big patch (nathan said that the next big content patch will have some animations fixed) will solve that, but maybe not. In the meantime switch your power fist to a shoota or slugga with 2 plasma bombs. 2 on the rear and a rhino is half down. 2 on the rear of a wave serpernt and is almost down.
Hell no man. Did I give all the Ork Nobs I assembled and painted Choppas? Did I give them bad lads Big Choppas?! NO I GAVE DEM DA KLAW CUZ IT IS DA BEST DERE IS YOO GROT! (I will continue to use it, because to me it is iconic and it has the best execution ever, it's just a shame it's completely gimped)
Yeah, I love the execution and I love people like you that will use it anyways for the RP/Iconic factor. But right now im more interested on taking back my territory while the devs fix that metal piece of shit.
