Yet! Nice, shows confidence you’ll get it down!

If you’re interested in growing @sbspalding a fellow community member has been putting together a Battle School. I’m sure you’ll be able to master El Dragón sooner rather then later!

Cheers!

You’re awesome! Thank you for your time!

What drew you to Boldur first? Was it the experiment? It was wasn’t it!

Good luck with Rath, Attikus, Deande and Kelvin (his Sublimate lore is a paiiiiiiin!) I’ll happily share any tips, tricks advice you need and not just vague bullet points!

Cheers!

Really? I can only say they have great taste! That, or trying to become a twitch shooter is better left for the mouse and keyboard warriors!

#19

Your post can not be refuted. I will have to accept your four points as scripture here on out.

1.) Agreed, even if I go and edit every word to be about Scooby Doo, it will always be correct.

2.) F ya! GBX better get on it! so the OT can get off his ass and spend more hours (this took sooo long…) on this post

C.) (C? wtf is this you Scooter?! You didn’t DIE!?) If this is so, then this post has succeeded. I am content!

Fourth.) (This is Scooter! Has to be) Agreed. Who knows, maybe Pendles will be melee, or a compromise hybrid type like Deande and Shayne! I’ll take either!

[quote=“ckgz800873, post:14, topic:1526531”]Well have you given a gander to Inner mouth view?

Kelvin will blow your mind! >.<[/quote]
He didn’t, unfortunately) I’ve tried them all. All those weapons and body parts swinging disorderly from side to side distract me and I feel disconnected with what’s going on. Did I hit? Who do I hit? With what? How hard it was? And so on…

Phoebe though stands out of them with her neat attacks right to the center of the screen. And Deande is fun and has a nice versatility with her fan throws. I’ll try them more thoroughly, but still it doesn’t look like I’d be used to first-person meleeing. Third person view is all I need to love them good! :smiley:

Most definitely, we’re trying to setup a little “Battle School” to help get people up to speed on characters.

Ohhhh no, I didn’t need the Experiment to know I would love Boldur. Played him in one of the betas or closed technicals.

I have always enjoyed tanking, and I LOVE DWARVES. If a game has dwarves, that’s my character. Besides, what other race has DOCTOR PROFESSORS!? No one, that’s who.

Boldur is best!

#23

The hybrids may be a good compromise for you! Which it seems you’ve already dabbled in with Caldarius. Have you messed around any with Mellka? Her kit utilizes her secondary a tad more than Cad does.

And as far as being mostly in 3rd person. Stack CD reduction and play El Dragon all of his skills pull the camera back!

#24

You could consider Ambre as a melee too. Her secondary attack is a melee and her primary needs to be pretty much melee range to work. Plus, the Jenneret theme had a melee theme to it.

#25

That’s a fantastic suggestion. She USED to have a really heavy emphasis on managing her heat with her beam primary and Solar Wind skill. But they’ve done so much to hamper that aspect of her, if YOU’RE not choosing her level 7 Mutation (The long range fireballs) You’re gutting yourself.

She can definitely be an honorable mention just the same though even for nostalgia’s sake and an excuse to continue working on my lil opus!

Thanks for the suggestion!
Cheers!

I keep myself in pve games, bot versus at the most extreme because i feel bad about not being a strong pvp’er. I don’t wanna be a burden to my team and all that.

#27

@Nema, you’re in the right place.

If you’re worried about your performance in a live game (and considerate to your team mates to boot despite devaluing yourself a tad :c ) @sbspalding has been organizing a Battle School for the community where many players (myself included) volunteer to coach and aid players who want to tighten their game just a tad or have a no pressure environment to stretch their muscles and experiment/learn.

Feel free to check out the link if it catches your eye.
Battle School ASSEMBLE!

Otherwise keep on enjoying PVE! May our legendaries stay op so we may continue our fast clear times!

Cheers!

Yeah, she’s sweet) I’ve mastered her before Caldy. Her jumps with Claw Lunge are mindblowing for the first times)

#29

Holy cow.

I forgot I made this, good times! (First time, I dipped my toes into the community, I think this predates most of our staple members today #dinosaur)

So much of it is out of date now (so much has changed since June!)

If necro’ing this thread is okay @Ganjamira (I hope it’ll get a pass, for pushing more positivity :heart:)
If yes, I can touch it up, and add Pendles! PENDLESSSSSSSSSS (he could use some love)

Go ahead, I see no harm in it, though a 7month-necro is definately something^^
Maybe you could go over the other character-infos and update them if needed.

#31

7 months is insane agreed (Can’t believe I’ve been a part of BattleBorn for this long!!)

For clarity what do you mean by [quote=“Ganjamira, post:30, topic:1526531”]

I’ll happily do this, just not sure what you’re alluding to.

Graced with your blessing, I’ll begin right away on updating my first opus! Thank you :heart:

#32

Oh, I just thought maybe some things have changed more drastically with Updates & character-buffs/nerfs - I honestly have not red your topic, so I assumed it had deeper guides for each melee which could be outdated. No worries :heart:

#33

Ah okay, gotcha!

Yeah this was originally an easily digestible (consumer approved list style) post, briefly extolling certain unique virtues each melee BattleBorn brought to the table.

It is Absolutely outdated in some respects (specific call-outs to helices that no longer exist or have changed, moving of numbers)

#34

shame :unamused:

:sweat_smile:

All seriousness though, my favorite melee is Beatrix

#35

You know what was never in date?
