my favorite unofficial combo is light>heavy>light-heavy (the second two in quick succession in the air causes both attacks to happen on your way down.)

My main weapon is the explosive slingshot one hitting everything 😂😂

GGs ❤🎉

RIP the shrapnel effect

i'll sleep got insomnia

I know this is an older video but I was hoping someone could speak to this: I've noticed that while fighting bosses I'll use a level 5 Zan but I don't get the final "burst" of damage that you get after he does his pose. Is this just not something that works on boss fights?

if guerrilla were to add a parry mechanic, how would you implement it into the existing melee system? and to which button would you bind it? bc even though i'd love to see a parry mechanic, the controller is already pretty full

Given how much they improved melee combat in this game makes me wonder what they’ll do for a third game personally I’d like them to improve what you can do with overridden machines like giving orders and directing them and maybe riding some of the larger combat units and use their weapons and abilities.

So fun!😄

This is really cool, I'm definitely gonna follow your advice! Just need to upgrade/master the skills first, as I just defeated Barnabas last night, haha

Not sure if it's just me, but Blind Justice does not activate when using magic or a physical attack. I have switch to the Eikon and hit the Feat button to discharge the orbs.

Rare game can fight machine with melee combat, I don’t know any one except this one. I like Elden Ring or God of War type of game, which can fight with large size boss. Melee in HFW is definitely unique.

Melee in ZD was just sometimes free damage in the form of silent or critical strike... in forbidden west it's the same, plus resonator blasts and a few extra moves. Melee doesn't still do a whole lot of damage and pulling off long combos usually costs you more life than the damage you do, at least on ultra hard. My most used real melee combo is jump off, cos it's the only one that's fast enough to pull off before another machine comes to body slam me. That said, once a player can get skilled enough at the game it starts to look like machines are dodging Aloy, and that player can start applying resonator blasts left right and center, it's a whole another ballgame. Not there yet myself, I'm only trying to unlearn how to dodge like in ZD, cos apparently it doesn't work like that in FW. I always tried to dodge so the enemy doesn't hit me, but it's borderline impossible. Now dodging is all about abusing i-frames, let the enemy hit you but time dodge so well it just nullifies the attack.

Fantastic video!

If only the tutorials in the melee pits weren't so misleading...

But why is it Brilliant? sorry Im confused to what it actually does? It cancels the animation and buys you one second of time? is that correct?

Is this specter gauntlet on Scorched dlc? If so that's horse shit.

It is wild that you are expanding my mind on how in-depth all the optional combat aspects of this game have to offer when I never really considered mainly besides for doing a full charge up to knock down enemies

Reminds me of the Gammacor from Warframe

My heavens cloud doesn’t go to multiple enemies?

I would also consider the Critical Boost Valor Surge. It recharges very fast, makes it much more likely to do Crits & increases the overall damage when you do. Should pair very nicely with the Gauntlet.

The Mounted Archer buff actually goes up to a 50% increase in Damage if @ Level 4. You should always be increasing your buffs to Level 4 whenever possible for the biggest effect. Combining it with a Level 4 Steath Ranged buff will increase it by another 40% as well, and another 80% on top of that with Low Health Ranged! Therefore you can get up to a 170% buff with your first two shots if you stay in Stealth. Worth noting though that if your initial shot does over 30% of the foes total HP, they will immediately become aggro'd & you'll lose the Stealth buff of your 2nd shot.

Damage numbers have nothing to do with Tear. Tear damage is never displayed on screen.

Damage numbers have nothing to do with Tear. Tear damage is never displayed on screen. You seem a bit confused about what the numbers ok screen mean. They never ever dictate Tear damage regardless of what you hit. They always signify impact damage.

I do wish it had at least 1 Coil slot, perhaps w a very limited Coil selection. Would be nice to throw an Elite Crit Coil on it!

why play spiderman when you have grapple strike

I found melee super frustrating due to the constant interrupts, lack of a block/parry, and lack of upgrade/scaling with the melee weapon. 1v1 it does ok... but 1v1 against a meleeable machine is pretty rare...

Try to do all this without a HUD!

Aloy looks like Senua in that Thumbnail. Sooo cool

Yo, u make great videos. What are you doing now?

My Eikon build: Shiva (Aerial Blast + Diamond Dust), Garuda (Judgment Bolt + Tsunami), Odin (Gigaflare + Ultimate Demise) while wearing the "double strike" and "precision dodge cooldown" gear.

Dlcs please!!

those transitions are so cool omg, it makes sense that all of the valor surges have the same camera tracking but this editing looks like it's down to the damn keyframe

Does it do Crit hits?

I shy away from melee in this game, but your videos are making me rethink that. I'm ready to get a warrior bow and give this a go. I'm also impressed by the time you've put into figuring all this out. Thanks, I appreciate it.

Also, this video only went over the skills & none of what ppl ACTUALLY need to know, like what attacks to use & how to actually fight with it. Thus this is little more than showing off. Builds are easy, play technique is tough. That is what you should have been covering. Like what combos to use, how to chain them, exactly what Melee moves you should be prioritizing in combat, etc. This helps almost noone.

The video showing the Tremortusk shouldn't be considered the usual outcome, even if you do things right. Just sayin'. Best to keep things to small & mid sized machines for this.

You legit don't need to do a low health melee playthru to get the benefits of knockdowns, crit strikes & resonator blasts. You can do that anyway even wirhout Low Health Melee. That's what I'd recommend, considering those things are the most effective in a Melee play style even when using Low Health Melee.

It's a VERY fun way to play for skilled players! Still, it still doesn't work great against large machines on Ultra Hard. You're still better off using a low health ranged tactic for those. Against small & mid sized machines tho, it's great! Using knockdowns, crit strikes & resonator blasts are musts!

The ThunderBolt shredder gauntlet works well w/grapple strike. It generates a ton of damage/tear, and the shock builds up fast (I'll need to look into the valor surge you mentioned). Then after the strike, fire again. If it's the fourth hit, you get the gauntlet explosion on top. Here's a "master class" on using the gauntlet. It's so much fun. Like playing murderous Jai Alai. The animations for catching the shredder are cool. ua-cam.com/video/0ysjKJ4jtCU/v-deo.html

i really started appreciating the melee in this game when i realized it's the only practical way to manage those goddamn kangaroo jacks. i hate leapslashers 😭

wait what? you can move lightning rod after its placed? how? how did i never know that

nice!

thank you!

thank you

transition edits and combat styling are top notch.

I love your playstyle man! It's exactly what I was looking for after seeing the Guerilla short where Aloy absolutely demolishes a Slaughterspine. Gonna try to adapt. I wanna play like this so bad.

Got back into FF16 with Rising Tide and finding your guides has been great! Love the slick editing of using the combat animations to transition to different clips AND it’s super informative!

muy buen video y muy buenas transiciones

How do you slow down so much?
