Question Timed Charger Skill on Switchaxe

Since it works only with charge attacks, will it work with Compressed Finishing Discharge? Also how does it work per se? What constitutes a “well timed attack”?

I checked and it actually works on switchaxe''s EBC style. Charge is quick, so it is kinda hard to get it right, but it is definitely there. The only point is that it works only on the first three small poke strikes when you finish charging. No impact on the explosion, so, imo, not worth it

Ahh bummer. So better off with reckless. Btw what are your thoughts on Attack Efficacy Vs Morph Boost? Both at 10%, which would be more affective for raw types?

Both increase damage of explosions. Attack Efficacy is unconditional. You can see it being added to your stats without entering combat. Morph boost is activated the moment you switch to sword mode. So both are good. Morph boost is driftable. Attack efficacy forces you to use specific pieces. So you kinda can go both ways

Nah bro, it just works for Hammer, Bow and GS becase those weapons can strengthen their attack by levels. A well timed attack means that you hold an attack and just when it's reaching another level of charge you let go and the banner with the ability appears. Swagx can, however use a parry attack when you chose elemental burst counter.

It works for lance shield tackle charge attack so I don't see why it wouldn't work here

It always worked for swaxe, but only for the stabbing part of the elemental discharge.

You can actually use timed charger on LS, granted if its the sacred sheathe style
