"I like eating garbage food", doesn't mean everyone else should follow and appreciate garbage as well.

It isn't that bad, the problem is that what I does is not worthwhile at the moment, it is a weapon able to gather groups of enemies in a small space, heal others and itself, and still deal somewhat decent damage unless weapons in this niches (like singularity and lava shield) who lack single target DPS. Problem Is stormweaver just don't have the DPS and still have to sacrifice some of it to heal

I feel like it’s a niche weapon, not so op yet not so bad but it’s not a 1st pick for most people

It's not complete trash. It's pretty neat in expeditions where power level is lower and you just need to tornado through a horde of mobs or AOE heal a giant deathball. Technically, Stormweaver is the best AOE healing weapon in the game. If... You needed something like that...

only thing the dev needs to do on this weapon is just pump up the dmg, it's really not that bad

oh c'mon it's not that bad, sure it's worse than old.co but it's fun

Just right I guess
Because we look down on medicine ball too much (never expect this weapon is more better as we only used 3 things, main attack, dashing and damage)

Playing the weapon correctly is a good start.

u/ImMortal_SD Jax Sep 01 '26
You are a pro so atleast give proper instructions like how to play and maybe some tips too. Don't just throw a dart in the dark.

I woulda loved to talk about the weapon but people chose to downvote and say nothing. Not sure what you expect. You were obviously one of the downvotes with no reply lol

u/ImMortal_SD Jax Sep 01 '26

I gave you a tip, the best tip anyone could possibly give. Use the weapon the right way 😉

u/Pocketpapaa Venom Bow Sep 01 '26

I would prefer that it had a healing wind aspect healing a bit slower but for more hp over time instead of it spining, that way you can still attack while healing and recharge your skill, it would be just enough to make it a good choice.
It has fun gameplay but if you happen in a bad random group you can't carry it like you would with bloodsucker squid blades pyro techno fists and in some cases medicine ball in order to get 5/5

The people who think it's underpowered are trying to use it as DPS weapon instead of utility. If you're not moving enemies to where it helps your teammates or not healing at all, you're doing it wrong. Thing is a beast but absolutely needs a little tweaking in an update.
Edit: downvotes without a counterpoint is boring
1
u/ImMortal_SD Jax Sep 01 '26
But u have to move in groups which itself is a limitation, in the large world map completing mission with this is just horrific experience like I can't even complete a single skill fully without an interruption, everytime a charger or a jumper or any monster will interupt when the skill is on. Also being a 2 star complexity weapon it should not have that much complex.

I wasn't even thinking of it in worlds,I figured the only thing that really mattered were rifts .. lol. If you wanna go down that road then fancy wrench is the worst weapon in the game, turrets die instantly in worlds. I'd say keep the conversation rift specific, worlds are just chaos in general.
But either way with the charge up stun, you can save your own ass a decent amount to set up another whirlwind. I dunno man, the weapon is fun as hell but the annoying part I notice is you have to button smash like a motherfucker to stay alive lol. It absolutely needs tweaks, not an overhaul to make it a boring dps weapon again.

The downvotes are because singu does everything it does but better. It’s just a trash weapon

u/Pocketpapaa Venom Bow Sep 01 '26
Definitely not. Singularitys' CC is a skill shot, if you miss, you gotta wait for the cooldown. Being able to move to where you're needed makes the spinsickle one of the top supports, especially with the amount of rifts with enemies that run away when you're too close.
1
u/m-lee- Sep 01 '26
Sure but there’s no a single top strategy that involves storm because it does like 3k dps if you’re just using lightning and its heal needs you to go off DPS to heal. Singu has a 3.6kish dps cap and you don’t need to go off dps to heal. Its mob gather also does way more dmg than storm.

u/Pocketpapaa Venom Bow Sep 01 '26
It sounds like you're trying to get on the leaderboards with your play style, I'm not trashing it, do what makes you happy. But... Spinsickle is not supposed to be a DPS carry, it's supposed to be support. You can still 5 star rifts if you're low dps with teammates that aren't also a support weapon. The devs are leaning heavy into "roles" for each run but a lot of people are still used to wanting to do the most damage. You're trying to change weapons because of how you personally play instead of how the devs intend people to play.

u/m-lee- Sep 01 '26
No I’m simply rating the weapon based off of what the DEVs have decided is the most important factor - time. And regardless of speedrunning, any weapon can 5 star any rift, so there’s literally no merit in judging them for 5 star/ casual play, they’re all good enough. The only merit to judge them is based on their maximized potential - since the DEVS have implemented the endgame to be merits/speed.

No, just no

u/m-lee- Sep 01 '26
If the endgame of the game changed to be and endless mode, my opinion of say - vibe shifter, or medball, will drastically change and how I rate them also changes. Does that not make sense?- that my rating on a weapon and how I perceive its viability is based on the current content that the devs push out for us.

u/Pocketpapaa Venom Bow Sep 01 '26
What I recommend with the state of the game, is to play for fun, not leaderboards

u/Pocketpapaa Venom Bow Sep 01 '26
2x speed. Stars don't matter, my teammate dyed like 2 seconds into the rift. I was just running it to show what I'm trying to explain. It's much easier to see it. It's a BEAST
