This week, we discuss Troikas. Perhaps you care to discuss them with us?
Perhaps tell us which of the Triglav, or Sudaruska variants you prefer more and why?
Resounding success with last week's Pulsar/Catalyzer thread – I was immensely impressed. Care to get creative once more?
Catch your around!
If you're using a Chaos set, get one. They pair amazingly with Vortex bombs, and flatten packed crowds faster than a Brandish.
Against a tight clump of enemies, a Brandish charge will deal about 1.2k damage to a few enemies in front, and a couple hundred to the ones in the middle and back. A Sudaruska charge will drive the whole pile for 1.2k, regardless of family. That first arena wave in FSC, with the slags and blast cubes? If you place the vortices properly before stepping on the button, you won't have time to walk back down to prepare for the next wave.
IMO best loadout to abuse them would be the Chaos set, Sudaruska/Triglav, Electron Vortex, and a weapon better suited for single targets and groups too small to be worth using a vortex on, such as a Brandish, Alchemer, Rocket Hammer, or Flourish.
Triglav is my favourite gun.
Funny, Sudaruska is my favorite bomb.
Triglav is my favorite weapon to pair with Ancient Plate set :DDDDD (If I had a green 5* Troika, I'd be delightedddddd)
Only problem: It's quite difficult playing Rush Enemies with Triglav with Ultra ASI at one run, then switching to Medium MSI, then Medium MSD/ASD... and so forth >.<
All one has to do is figure out where one will be safe to release an Avalanche from :) which is basically during an enemy's attack while making sure to not be hit by the enemy's attack.
Oh the life of a hipster ._. :D
I was attending Troikamas, and I had saved up loads of energy for the event and earlier in the day before it I was asking Tdlob whether the Sudaruska or Triglav was better for bombers, and he said Sudaruska so yeah. When I got to Troikamas, it was so laggy that I could barely speak so I tried to send an ingame mail to Tdlob to ask him to craft it for me and I accidentally sent it 6 times. Fortunately, he was kind enough to give the extra back and by that time the lag cleared up and I could get it myself from a staff member in a Kat Eye Cowl. He handed it to me and I was so pleased, that I gave him a tip.
I guess it's sort of weird that a bomber's first 3* weapon is a sword but :P
Well I am going Triglav, I need a Voltedge first to own in LD. The troika reach is awesome, can hit distant switches too, plus, why not freeze,>:D
PS. Stand facing a wall where you can see the top and it has depth, great in terminals behind the lift, then charge attack and see the beam light up the top of the wall.
(NOTE: For the flow of the limerick, "CTR" should be pronounced "see-tee-are." And also no music is necessary.)
The Triglav's a fine Normal sword
Used often by those who are bored
Splitting enemies and ground
With its earth-shaking pound
If CTR you can afford
While its swing time can be rather slow
With no specialized damage to show
You should not be discountin'
This strong, mighty mountain
Lest it break you in one well-timed blow
Triglav is great and all, dont get me wrong but Suda has more viability in my opinion. I regret making my triglav first, but im saving up to buy a Suda CTR+ASI - Medium+
One of rock, other of ice.
The knowledge of either power must resonate with their respective employer.
Before the true power of either mountain may be known.
This is your last chance to contribute...

Whenever I feel doubtful if crafting Triglav was worth grinding lockdown, I just charge my Triglav and feel reassured once more.
When I feel bored, I suit up in full chaos, swiftstrike buckler, with sudaruska and triglav and switch-swing with them.
Sudaruska is my go-to weapon for lumbers. I love using the charge on them.
By the way, where are these podcasts taking place, and is it possible to see previous podcasts?
Haha if you happen to return to this thread...
The Arsenal is recorded every Sunday at 2PM EST (GMT-5). Previous podcast are archived on our website (www.sklayelite.com/arsenal), on iTunes, and on Livestream (if you want to watch the unedited video version).
Triglav is my favourite gun. Anywhere you find a gun puppy or a spookat across a chasm where the level design says "Oh, you didn't bring a handgun? Well nuts to you!", I don't bring a handgun at all! Instead, I bring my freezing grenade launcher: Triglav. Charge it up, toss it across the pit, see gun puppies die. It's very therapeutic.
A lot of people shun Triglav because the combo can leave you with frozen stuff in your face, but that's just because they can't use it right. You hit enemies with the tip of your sword and everything works out from there.
