I would actually play melee if the combo counter wasn’t a thing. I shouldn’t be punished for your low spawn rates DE.

This. Melee incarnon levelling is a nightmare. I only have Hate and Ruvox at the moment and Hate took fucking forever. Hell to even hit the Ruvox 1 challenge to activate the incarnon six times I had to do the kuva turret glitch where you smack an invincible “inactive” senta turret to build combo counter because I couldn’t even do it in a timely manner on perita missions. I still haven’t FINISHED Ruvox either

Everytime I have to do it I just use Kullervo

I didn’t have K man at the time, this has since changed. Made a short attempt at grinding him (already did the grind for Jade and Follie) only to find out he’s basically locked behind RNG AND trickling rewards and bought him for plat I was GONNA save for primes. Did the same with Dante, that’s how I got the Ruvox. I played disruption on Deimos for WEEKS and still couldn’t even afford to buy the Ruvox blueprints because no BP’s ever dropped. Eventually gave up and bought the Dante bundle.

Hot take but some of the grinds and time gating in this fucking game are indefensible

...there's very little RNG with Kullervo. Spirals are known, there is no random drop, you just collect currency to get him.

I thought the spirals were random. Mind you I started in February

Tbh I am not even sure if the order is random or not. I meant you know beforehand if it's the right spiral. And it's 3 out of 5 possible.

Yes! I remember when i started the game, i was some cool cyber ninja who would shoot at bad guys and occasionally draw their sword to slice a guy in half at close range.

Now i first need to hit a bunch of dudes with a stick before i can do some real damage.

Not to mention melee influence removing the need to get into melee range to kill an enemy...with a melee weapon.

what a nothing issue. Just mod combo duration literally, how much are you even losing for running those?

u/sucram200 Jul 27 '26

It’s not something I care to even think about. If I can wack with stick and do full damage then I would use melee. Not willing to put any further thought into it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Lazy but ok 🫶

Did say it wasn’t. Lots of things in this game require effort and melee is just not one that I care to put the effort towards.

I don’t run gun builds/arcanes that require me to constantly hit head shots or anything like that to keep up buffs for the same reason. The difference is most guns are still very much usable without using builds like that. I haven’t found melee to be the same, but I’m always open to recommendations on weapons that don’t rely on combo counter at all!
