At the Gallagher Runblade is noted that it makes RENDING damage to Necrobiotics.
Should be RESIDUAL damage like the Bringer of Vengence Battlesword or the Darkslayer Katana, or?
-
if it´s not in the faq by now, it will likely be correct.
there are several weapons with not used special abilities..
also, i think the runeblade is not holy (?)
-
also, i think the runeblade is not holy (?)
I see it more as an very well made sharp blade than an holy weapon as in the context of the other two mentioned, but then again I have been know to be wrong ;D
-
I think there is a reason why it has runes on the blade. I thought about a kind of magic or so...
Has anybody knowleadge if RENDING has a special effect against Necrobiotics?
-
as far as i know, rending (on cc weapons) has not effect at all..
-
RENDING only describes the way in which the weapon causes damage.....it´s like concussive or blunt......
No real geame-effexcts come with it as come with residual or radiant.
-
well, at RC, rending counters extra ablative armor.. but thats it
-
This may be one for the FAQ Team.
-
I couldnt find an answer anywhere. I think it supposed to have the same effect as RC but that is just my opinion, no fact to back it up.
-
Would be only normal to apply this rule to CC weapons also, wouldn´t it?
-
the point is, that extra ablative armor does only work against ballistics.
it has no effect in CC, regardless of rending/not rending CC weapons.
it supposed to have the same effect as RC but that is just my opinion, no fact to back it up
i do also belive that ballistic and CC rending is the same.
only nothing is resistant / weak to rending, exept the exclusion of the only-against-ballistic-EAA
-
In FAQ.Czech we decided to change "rending" to "residual". It is reasonable.
-
:o :o :o
all rending weapons are residual??? like, e.g. some HMG´s ??
-
I believe that you have misunderstiood Toshiro, Nick. I believe that he was only pertaining to the Runeblade. I can see Toshiro's reasoning for doing so. However,I will raise this to the FAQ team.
-
This was changed of course only for Gallagher Runeblade and Wolf´s Fang Claymore.
Thanks to dmcgee1 for clarification.
-
If you read the Fluff in the armory section it looks like the 2 weapons should cause residual damage as opposed to rending. Under Rending it referrs to Chainswords and serated claws. I dont think it would be overpowering if the change was made. Wolf claw Residual vs. necroorganic and Runeblade Residual vs. necrobiotic. JMHO ;D
-
This question has led to some rather interesting discussions among the FAQ Team. We'll see if we can find a good solution that also addresses the issue of Rending on CC-weapons in general.
