I keep telling others throwing knives aren't nearly as bad and useless as people think, having the two on Rana at all times has given multiple chances to flee after having lost her primary. simply by getting xenos to back off as long as you can hitMrJJJ wrote:Still want this, still bumping this, i also noticed they do decent damage suprisingly, i almost killed a ravager with one (injuried already, but still got him close to crit)

Re: Knife rig -> accessory
I decided to try out a throwing-knife only build.
I killed a young ravager and a mature spitter, while being engaged intermittently by a total of 2 ravagers, 2 spitters, and a runner in a 1x1 narrow hallway (after having been hugged earlier, so I couldnt get hugged down).
However, even though I threw a good 20 knives on target,not a single one appeared to embed.
I dont think knives embed at all in xenos, which kind of challenges the concept that knives can prevent ventcrawling.

The fact this still hasn't been done yet, in tandem with the excuse being that it prevents ventcrawling and thus shouldn't be changed, amuses me to no end.

Being knives don't embed in xenos or prevent vent-crawling, in case anyone was under the illusion otherwise, they most certainly don't do those things here.

Re: Knife rig -> accessory
Used throwing knives two times after CM made it from alpha to stable and never again, so cant really tell fi they are useful this days, but still think its a wise idea to transfer knives from belt to webbing because even if you are a 1337 pr0 knifer you have no real need in 3-slot rig, when you can simply put knives in two-slot armor, three-slot webbing or a six-slot belt. +1

Gaze upon me,
for I have wandered deep into the ancient tombs of knowledge to which lie madness and sorrow, cleansing a path for all those who walk behind me...
...
But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!
~Furthermore, I consider that Floodlights should no longer be destroyed.~
