My BatKnight instincts are telling me it's coming out soon, but why was it a GM wep in the first place?
Was it so broken in power that it was nerfed by NEVER being released, or was it a little bit glitchy for the public?
I hope they release it though, would be a great 'Guardian' weapon in my opinion, and I would love ANOTHER 5* electric sword besides voltedge...
What do you guys think about it?
My current theory is it just kind of sucked. I don't see shock being better than stun or freeze on the slowest sword in the game.
That wiki page was made two days ago. Its history reveals that it has been edited only once. The editor who made that edit has not contributed to the wiki at all, except on this article and its attached images.
I really hope this thing goes public. I like shock, and the release of the Third Troika would be the only reason I'd ever get one (stun and freeze are both kinda dull, and I have better things to do with the money anyway). If I got to smack monsters upside the head with Mount Olimpus or whatever they call this thing, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
@Bopp: true, but I saw read links to that page several weeks ago. I'd say there's a good chance this thing is being released.
As much fun as it would be, with the shock *theoretically* being safer than freeze on Triglav and more damage inducing than Suda's stun, overall I'm just sorta meh about it. It would be very fun and flashy to use.
I would much prefer a fire/volcanic version, so that we could keep the full knockback, light enemies on fire and get some residual damage while charging another attack (the most redeeming and fun feature of the troika line) and overall give some more usefulness to the disappointingly average normal damage.
Just use your choice of Suda/Triglav with Electron Vortex and enjoy the ensuing shock if you want a Third Troika experience.
It's not actually called The Third Troika, it's called Gr- oops, spoilers.
It has hype
