    For the Syam you mention at 5:23 that the floor not being smooth is the issue, however it is actually the low ceiling that causes the problem.
    The Syam is even specifically good on uneven terrain compared to weapons with punchthrough as the wave 'climbs' over terrain and will even hit enemies behind cover and walls very consistently.
    However when used in areas with a low ceiling this 'climbing' causes the wave to climb onto the ceiling and miss everything.

    • @Fyrefrye
      @Fyrefrye Před rokem +16

      My single least favorite thing about the Syam is that the heavy attack no longer forces slash. Even if only the "melee" swing of the heavy would slash and not the thrown beam, I feel that would instantly make the weapon way more competitive for my playstyle. With my nikana zaw I can heavy attack most enemies ONCE (even most eximus) and simply walk knowing they're already dead. A single heavy attack slash proc is plenty for the entire star chart and the majority of the Steel Path as well, though tougher eximus and bosses do need a lot more focus. The syam heavy feels like it's barely tickling the enemies in comparison and the entire time I was leveling the weapon I found myself actively trying to trigger the sliding-heavy which is unchanged and still forces slash.

    Quick note about the Edun is that it's got a unique, duviri-exclusive heavy attack that is basically a wide spin. It's really good as it has basically no wind-up animation to the point where in my opinion, it's both better than the awkward curving throw heavy that the weapon gets on the Star Chart as well as being more usable than the default polearm heavy attack.

    • @DankJudgement

The stance hurts but it's still really strong, showing just how much perfect stats can combat the stance.

    I'm glad to hear that Tenet Livia isn't being rendered obsolete with Azothane. The greatest perk Tenet Livia has by comparison is that it freezes combo duration while holstered, meaning you'll never have to worry about losing your 12x combo as you travel between groups of enemies so long as you remember to always switch to another weapon. That may not seem like much to some people, but it means not having to rely on any mods or arcanes that increase combo duration, meaning you can just slam more DPS or utility into it.

    The Syam (Drifter) power attack will also sometimes keep enemies open to a ground finisher even after they get up. This may be a bug.
    Also, the Syam (Warframe) can still execute a normal heavy attack if you slide into it. I built it for raw heat and heavy bonuses and it can destroy acolytes with a high dmg heat proc plus slash proc. Extremely flavorful weapon and my go-to for both Duviri and the star chart.

    • @tyronus4
      @tyronus4 Před rokem +9

      I can agree with having the stronger options (even though people would absolutly scream power creep if they were better). As for crafting, these blueprints only require Duviri resources, which is much easier then most other open world which need extra blueprints for resources or bait for fish parts, or normal weapons that might require planet specific resources. Should be easier as long as you stick with Duviri a bit longer than the quest.

    I am hoping you could answer this question here, especially since I think many people may want this response as well. The last evolution quest for the Zaramin incarnon weapons is to have an incarnon weapon equipped in the 3 weapon slots. I had a laetum pistol requiring this, so I thought I would use two weapons I put diviri incarnon adaptors on to, since this makes those weapons have an incarnon mode. However, I didn’t get the benefit of the evolution and I am not sure why. Any chance you know why?

    • @fufiisafufi
      @fufiisafufi Před rokem +1

      I'm guessing you need incarnon weapons from Cavalero (zariman vendor) only. They were introduced into the game much earlier and I guess the list of weapon compatible for these evolution quest was hardcoded with them in mind and was not revisited for Duviri release.

    I can confirm that the Sun & Moon does INDEED have a gimmick!
    The Heavy Ground Slam is primarily where this gimmick lay.
    First off, I must inform you of most wonderful news! The Sun & Moon's Heavy Ground Slam *does not inflict Lifted.*
    I repeat: The heavy ground slam _does not inflict Lifted._
    Second, the heavy ground slam launches -- not lifts, launches -- cc-vulnerable enemies a somewhat generous distance away, good for clearing chaff from your immediate area or getting space. It may even occasionally result in an actual blast status effect.
    Also it has a lovely thunderclap sound to go with it, reverberating into the distance.
    Also, while not quite a gimmick of the particular weapon but perhaps of the class, ground finishers are guaranteed to force two slash procs -- this is not related to its stance mod; it will ALWAYS force this on a successful ground finisher.

Despite the heavy attack maybe not being the best. Its currently, at least as far as im aware, the stringest sword and shield considering its amazing crit and status, combined with 80 percent slash weighting, with rrakky higj base damage to boot. Aside from m a y b e the Silva and Aegis with a niche setup, the Argo & Vel is the best. Mind you, I dont know everything, theres likely a synergy, or some sort of gimick or mechanic with another semword and shield that makes it better than the Argo.
