Most swords in the game has a range slightly longer than it looks like but this is just derp.

gif

I think it's a failing when a cosmetic item looks dumb; the blade really should be bigger. Either that or turn them into cutter reskins. With the size, they'd make sense as cutters.

I apologize in advance if this has been covered elsewhere, but how did you make that gif?

reskin

That should be a Darkfang shield reskin, definitely.

I record it in Fraps, import the .avi into GraphicsGale, crop it, save it as a gif. I dunno why the framerate is so slow. The preview showed me 60fps and when I download and view the image it goes a bit smoother than in the browser.

Gifs are weird, man.

At first I thought you were complaining that the blade is so short that the hitbox doesn't line up.

But that gif seems to show that THE FIRST HITBOX IS NOWHERE NEAR THE SECOND! Wtf!

im serious now

It really doesnt seem a triglav reskin because is so tiny, but is still better than another levi reskin.

Actually, the charge attack is like that for the regular Suda too. You just don't see it when you are personally using the sword. The attack is basically two giant brandish explosions that you travel along with.

My complaint is indeed the blade being too short.

I have a sudaruska, and I've never seen the "rocks" pop up behind anyone like that.

Maybe you just lagged. Regardless, it doesn't damage that far back.

The irony of this patch is, I got my triglav 2 weeks ago, and now I have to get these two swords. could I get a heads up next time Triple "O"? hahaha

lol you "have" to get reskins...

This isn't like when they changed shard bombs or the antigua line...

@Batabii

Watch someone else Suda-charge. Like I said, you won't see it on yourself.

Yeah, I was thinking this when I saw them come out and I saw their size.

How does the reach of the cleaver compare to the sudaruska?
It's shorter in length but its a reskin.. so it has a longer hitbox then shown?
how does it work?

Many animations skip due to the amount of things goin on or maybe you need high quality since I can see it fine

For the lulz

The cleaver would still be a funny sight in Lockdown.
"Alright, just gotta back up here and -- what does this guy have in his hand? Why's he coming over here? Why's he holding it over his head like a Sudarus -- OH DEAR GOD--"
*Smash*

I literally just farmed 250

I literally just farmed 250 Krogmo Coins yesterday for a Triglav(already had a Grintovec, so just needed 4* and 5* recipes).

@sirius
What do you mean "just fine"? You see the animation skip? Shouldn't that be a BAD thing?

How about you try looking at someone else using the troika/sudaruska charge, then compare it to you using the charge yourself.

Magic of ping and all that.

I'll ask if I ever see anyone use it.

Still, it's a little misleading to use a glitched image for statistical comparison...

Nevertheless, I'm still not going to pay for the sword. It's just a Troika reskin. You could make a Triglav at a much cheaper cost than the Cleaver.

Lol, who has the patience to Forge a Sudaruska/Triglav?
Farming crystals does take time, you know!

well you still have to forge

well you still have to forge the cleavers lol
but it saves the time for getting recipes and orbs

@Kyborg

When you go farming for crystals you get orbs and crowns in return which you can invest in your Troika.

Farming En (and thus prize boxes) takes even LONGER.

@Batabii

Oh? I'm talking regarding the F2P players. Even though it takes longer, you feel rewarded when you finally finish it.
And besides, Elevators are free of cost which allows you to farm for countless of hours.
Yes, you have a life outside Spiral Knights too, but as I said earlier, you feel rewarded when you complete crafting your 5* Triglav/Sudaruska.

I said Prize Boxes.

And I was directing that comment at Kyborg

@Flamearc

Every aspect of Mighty Cleaver is identical to Sudaruska. That's why it looks so weird on such a short model.

@Batabii

I could show you myself, if you'd like.

I'm glad they're just reskins because I'm on a quest for all the swords and although I'm not really working at it for the moment, I'd kill myself if I had to get two limited edition knives D:
