Hi-Intensity Damnation gameplay on Chasm Station HL-16-11 using the Catachan Mk IV "Devils Claw" Sword and Agripinaa Mk VIII Braced Autogun.

This sword is advertised as a crowd control weapon, yet its outclassed by both Combat Axes and Power Swords in this. The Sword delivers really low damage numbers, even when chaining heavy attacks. Much like the Chain Sword, all it seems to do is push enemies around a little bit but not kill them. All of this makes it feel like you're hitting enemies with a wet stick rather than a Sword.

I don't think it would need that much tweaking with its damage to feel a big difference. But as of now its very bad in my opinion, even with this practically god rolled version.

I always welcome the conversation & feedback to learn from you so do let me know what your thoughts on the state of the Catachan Swords in the comments. Is there some magic way to make these weapons better? Or have I been using it wrong?

LOADOUT:

Catachan Mk IV "Devils Claw" Sword
Agripinaa Mk VIII Braced Autogun
Feats: 2-2-2-1-3-2
