Main Gauche complaint

So main gauche seems really cool still needs tuning but for the love of god if it is a 20 sec CD that is controling a large portion of our CP generation it better not miss.

It’s competing with our highest damage primary attacks… It will never, ever be relevant. The only way it could compare is if it had no cooldown, and had massive threat increase, or was an AOE or something. I don’t even know why they added that ability into the game. They had to have thought maybe you could rotate it with ghostly strike every 10 seconds to have a constant 10-15% extra mitigation… but man that idea flopped hard.

Garbage ability. Use Mutilate.

Love how all of you are just poo pooing the ability that’s why i complained it has issues lol. It could compete with the damage abilities if built right.

You came to get answers to your questions.

First time here?

None of us likely want it buffed because we don’t have to pay for all the junk that it requires to get that rune.

Yeah… we know its bad. So accept it and stop using it.

Its actually pretty cheap now. At least on my server anyway.

Use Main Droite instead.

Problem solved.

So maybe if you can’t handle discussions don’t be on the forums?

Lol no one is having a discussion with you. Its bad. Everyone but you accepts it. And this is a forum. I can say what I want. You dont have to respond. Note no one else is complaining about MG when we struggle with AoE threat.

I respectfully disagree. I actively use Main Gauche now that its been buffed. Sure, it doesn’t have the dps output that Mutilate has, but its parry, combo generator, and lowered cost make it usable finally. I’m using it and it is allowing me to maintain Blade Dance and Slice N Dice very easily now.

I highly recommend giving it a chance instead of hanging onto the meme of making fun of something you won’t give a chance. Like I said, it’s working great for me. “Give it a shot” is all I’m saying to rogue tanks.

Yeah shuriken toss is bad no one should talk about it just learn to tab.

I mean, 3 combo points compared to the 2 from mutilate, and mutilate isn’t on a 20 second cd…

I just did BFD and RFD and Shiriken Toss kept aoe aggro amazingly.

Also, again, I’m not arguing Main Gauche damage against Mutilate. Just saying Main Gauche has been buffed and is now viable. It’s working great.

Consider not catering to memes and give some specs/runes in the game a chance.

Sorovil seems to have switched to another character and thought we wouldn’t notice

If you like the playstyle and just want to use it, that’s fine, but the combo point generation/energy economy is higher with Mutilate than it is with Sinister Strike + Main Gauche.

If you were having issues maintaining Slice and Dance and Blade Dance with Mutilate - you’re doing something wrong. You can maintain 4 point SnD and BD with Mutilates just fine (easier than SS + MG).

I almost never use Sinister Strike. If I’m not using Ghostly Strike, Main Gauche or Riposte(sometimes), I’m basically spamming Shuriken Toss. Works perfectly fine :slight_smile:
