Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

Seems like no melee weapon is even close to the Daichi. The Red Dragon seems like the best weapon in the game (I haven't gotten it yet) I do however like picking off the balverines before they even know I'm there and the longer ranged weapons are much better for that.

^there are of course diachi is fast and makes lots of damage but there are lets say almost as good i think the best weapons are the ones thatyou augment yourself

I agree that the red dragon dishes out more damge than the rammer in 2 secs however i must say after using the red dragon for about 2 weeks and then switching to the rammer i find it much more easy to use as the red dragon has to be zoomed to fire fast and when surrounded by enemys i never use the zoom i just look and shoot regardless

isnt the master clockwork pistol almost just as good as a red dragon pistol if you augment the clockwork master pistol with damage boosters?

in my opinion any master weapon with the new augments from the dlc can give you more damage then the daichi.

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

I absolutely agree i have the red dragon myself the reload time is almost unnoticeable and so far anything that I have melted down with this amazing pistol has died within the short time of me unloading my pistol(really fast)

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

you ALL are wrong! The Perforator is the best ranged weapon in the game (when compared to the red dragon)...ill compare the stats:

Red Dragon:
Dmg: 41.0
Dmg type: Bullet
Atk speed: Normal
Ammo Cap.: 6
Reload Time: 0.75
Range: 35.0
Augments: Devastation and Lucky Charm

The Perforator:
Dmg: 81.0
Dmg Type: Bullet
Atk Speed: Normal
Ammo Cap: 6
Reload Time: 0.75
Range: 60.0
Augments: Fear Itself, Discipline and Barkskin

the only differences is the dmg, range and augments...other than that, everything is the same...HOWEVER, the perforator STILL out dmgs the Red Dragon...they both fire at the same exact speeds, depending on how fast yer trigger finger is (i've shot faster with the perforator than i have with the red dragon)...and another nice feature to the turret rifle is that you reload after every shot (unless yer firing really rapidly...but the reloading is pretty much unnoticeable because you do it so quickly), so its basicly a non-stop onslaught of bullets flying at yer enemies, unlike with the red dragon where you HAVE to reload after 6 shots, instead of after every shot...the game even says that the turret rifle is better than the red dragon

as for melee weapons, its still currently the Daichi...altho there was a rumor going around that in the very last demon door (fairfax) there was a melee weapon better than the Daichi, however, this was disproved as no one could find any possible way to do anything else inside the door other than collect a poem and open the chest (i was one of those people who tried everything possible, and found no said weapon)

@LyNxY yO

let me rephrase then...perforator is the best ranged weapon when its compared to the red dragon (in my book, the red dragon is last...perforator, enforcer, rammer THEN the red dragon)...however, the game still does say that the perforator is the best gun in yer whole inven (if you have ALL the legendary ranged weapons)

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

I like a standard master longsword with four augments of awesomesauce.

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

BEST WEPS:

Melee: Daichi Followed by Royal Septre (Knothole Island DLC) if you put the correct Augements on it.

Ranqe: Red Dragon, Perforator, Enforcer/ Rammer. (Depends if you perfer Range, or Damage.)

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

Daichi > All melee weapons.

As far as ranged weapons are concern, the Red Dragon is pretty much the best. It holds six rounds, the firing rate when you zoom in is excellent and it has damage boosting augments so that 49.0 (or whatever it is) is actually much higher.

I'm not fond of the way it looks though.

Scepter? If you put the right augments in though....

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

Master Katana with Luck and Life, Killerwatt, Flame, and Skill and Beauty augments has been better than the Daichi for me. Though the actual damage output is about three points less than the Daichi's it doesn't really make a difference, considering you get fire damage and drain health too. Can take out a balverine with three standard swings.

Re: what is the best melee weapon besides daichi?

Despite people's love for the legendaries... ANY 4 slotted master weapon is good, grated you put all 4 slots as augments that increase damage dealt and decrease damage taken. But then again, life drain is good too and added skill with the weapon is as well (not sure what it does however... the skill that is).

Personally, I slot 2 weapons (a master cutlass and master flintlock pistol) fully for battle. Then I use others for Fear Itself-ish or Bewitching-ish augments for socialtime. Also one for scarring in case you're into that sort of thing heh.

But effects don't stack like that, or at least I didn't think so. Luck, fire, electric, and skill effects all increase damage but none of them stack.

Stop the necro posting. Seriously, This is like the second time this thread was reanimated.

Two weeks old is necro posting?

They do if they are different augments. Same name augments won't stack on a single weapon, however the same augment on both your melee and ranged weapon works.

No, it's not

Originally, the thread was very old but got revived two weeks ago. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't continue now that it's been reanimated for the last two weeks.
