Troo Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Why no Claws/Stone? Can someone refresh my fading memory.

Bill Z Bubba Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 No dual blades, either. It has something to do with the dual-wield animations but I don't recall the specifics. It can't be because the leaps would look silly since you can do granite/ma and eagle's claws to the head with rooted feet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal_General Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 A lot of other melee attacks like savage uses both hands for some attacks while stone uses a two handed swing for most attacks, but paired with shield holds the hammer with one hand. There is no reason you can't use just one claw and hold a shield in the other hand. Dual blades I can understand being not allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxman100 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) Originally Stone Armor and Claws were not available on the same archetypes. Devs probably chose not to put in the work for extra animations and costume pieces when Brutes were added. *Edit* Brutes didn't get Claws until I16. Though if someone put in the time to work out Claw/Shield combo, I'd be down right away. Edited June 6, 2020 by Jaxman100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troo Posted June 22, 2020 Author Share Posted June 22, 2020 So it's because Granite and weapons?

Jaxman100 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Not sure if it's dual wield specifically. I thought Katana applied as well. However, the game lets me create a Stone Armor tanker with either Dual Blades or Katana currently but not Claws. 😡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Z Bubba Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 (edited) Well now I'm really confused. Yup, I got nothing. Didn't even realize claws was the ONLY powerset you can't pair with stone armor now. My bad. Edited June 23, 2020 by Bill Z Bubba 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insome1 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Thought this was funny. I recently rolled a stone tank and was actually thinking claws over savage. Ive even seen the animations in costume editor and thought Id try to prove this thread wrong! 😄 I was able to make the toon, get him to attempt to load into AP. But then crashed. Reloaded and had an InvalidPlayerinfo.. which is fun! Glad I rolled the /savage. ((if any wants to know. choose the secondary claws first, then back to primary stone. But if you go into secondaries again, claws wont be selected. But if you dont go back to secondaries, you can see the costume and power custom screen. Only works with Tank tho.
