 So does bro gaunt remove ability to use biotic hammer on krolord? I know it changes mellee for most other classes. But what it biotic hammer is charged?

[AlphaMaeko]

Head but combo still hammers.

Heavy melee would be overwritten to do falcon punch.

I've read that you can still do your light melee with the gauntlets on, and the Krogan Battlemaster does a hammer slam at the end of a sprint so you can still get the slam with a little effort.

The gauntlet replaces a standing heavy melee for all kits.

You can still do the normal light melee and get your kit's specific heavy melee by sprinting and pressing the melee button.

We spent a lot of time talking about how we wanted to handle this, having it potentially not work on certain kits, giving flat damage bonuses, but in the end we decided on a standardized presentation across the board. It unfortunately means there are a few kits where this can override a big part of the kit (The hammer or the Talon's bow are big ones).

I'm wondering if I equip the Batarian Gaunlet on the Talon merc he would be able to grab over cover.

Hmmm so not biotic hammer nor biotic punch clears things up. Thank you Chris.

He can already grab over cover, but it's super finicky, and doesn't work very often.  The Gauntlet might help improve it, but I couldn't say for sure without some testing.

I can't grab with the Talon merc, then WTF!?


Instead of grabbing he uses the bow.

Oh, maybe for that reason.

I still use the original controls except for Medigel and thermal packs.

[Aetika]

Yeah, my friend equipped the gauntlet on Krolord the first time he played him and than spent the rest of match running around absolutely frustrated and he hates Krolord ever since, lol.

[Ultimate Pheer]

Why would you put the batararian gauntlet on a Krolord anyway?

It deals less damage than their ordinary heavy melee!

OP, now that you have your answer, can you please change the title to "BW confirms return of balance changes & weekend challenges!"

Do you hold the melee-button than you try to grab with the Talon?

If I tab the button the Talon uses his bow. If I hold it down he grabs an enemy in range.
I use a mouse shoulder button for melee but I think it works with "F" too.

On PC I couldn't tell you but on console it works if you pause for a second after pulling into cover then hold the melee button. Nemesis are almost impossible to grab, hunters pretty much always work. It's like if you do it too quickly it defaults to the bow shot. That's on console though so it may not work the same on PC?

I havent tried, but doesn't that mean the Krolord could still do the Hammer/Biotic/Electric Strike, by chaining a light melee combo?

it's not finicky. You just have to hold the melee button when going for grabs with the Talon

RJ, I had the same problem initially, but when I changed how I do grabs ... hold down the melee button (F on PC) vs tapping the key, it works every time for me.

Just tapping the "F" key, which would work for other characters, would give me the bow with the Merc.

I just wait for the "Fist of Doom" then press and hold "F" (for Fist of Doom?) and I get my grab.

[N7-RedFox]

I don't play with the Talon on PC ever. Coz his key bindings bug was never fixed even though it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Just keep the button pressed. Works on XBOX everytime, I don't know about lolPC though.

So how goes the testing?
