Rework black talon catalyst
The sword changes were really good, but the catalyst for black talon is far to difficult to use properly. (Also don’t tell me to get on a titan with stronghold, black talon shouldn’t be tied to one class to be effective)
It just makes no sense for the damage buff to only be up for 2 seconds and your sword recharge in 1 second. Just not enough time to use effectively.
TALON GANG!

Please! It feels so wrong now

1 ReplyI'd rather they give us more catalysts per weapon. I mean, we have the slots for them when you hover over the catalyst icon.

3 RepliesI think all swords need a small change: give Guard and Heavy attack their own meters.. With the way perks are right now, guarding doesn't play well with heavy attack.

Agree 100%. I think swords need a small QoL improvement by giving the guard and heavy attack separate meters and removing the guard energy cost from exotics. I made a post about it you can read if you want: [url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/256397062?sort=0&page=0[/url]

Yeah the sword changes pretty much killed black talons catalyst, agreed.

1 ReplyWould it be broken if they adjusted the catalyst to perform the swing at max strength regardless of the meter?

4 RepliesEdited by Codykins: 6/18/2020 6:33:49 AMYeah, it has been broken since the sword rework. Since blocking is used to activate the catalyst, but also requires energy -- but you need full energy in order to do full damage, activating the catalyst properly is ridiculously tedious for the 25% damage increase, as Reversal literally only stays active for 1 second after immediately blocking a hit. The funny part, is you can get Reversal to activate, but if your sword energy isn't full, you'll still hit a crit (yellow damage), but it will only be about 50% of the damage it would have been without the Catalyst perk active, if you'd had full energy. All-in-all, yeah, the catalyst is nearly completely useless right now because of the sword rework; and the sword itself is suffering even less use now that Temptations Hook does the exact same thing, but in legendary form; The only difference being is has slightly less impact and uses 8 energy, while Black Talon uses 4. If I could suggest a rework for the catalyst, I would put my vote towards increased projectile velocity with increased projectile homing / tracking.

4 RepliesI've had the Talon Catalyst for so long and i have no clue what it does, like i remember Reading the description a while back, but i only remember it sounded kind of pointless so i never even bothered to try and figure out how to use it if i could choose a Catalyst for Black talon it would be somwthing like Faster Projectile & Swing speed after a kill, nothing too Flashy but definitely more helpful than whatever we got RN
