Dauntless Brings A New Weapon To The Party: The War Pike
Phoenix Labs have decided to add a new weapon to Dauntless that is sure to rile up some players. The Wark Pike is a lovely new stabbing weapon that can do a lot more against the monsters you're tracking down than just give them a nasty gash. We'll let the developers sell you on the weapon below, along with more details here, and a fancy trailer to show it off at the bottom!
The War Pike is a precise weapon that rewards a surgical approach and tactical mastery. The War Pike's primary attack is the forward thrust. This attack can be repeated several times to deliver precise damage with the War Pike's razor-sharp tip. You can press left or right during thrusting attacks to strafe sideways, moving in tandem with your quarry without letting up on the pressure. For Slayers that can anticipate a Behemoth's attack pattern, this means an unrelenting assault. The War Pike's second attack deals slashing damage in an area as your Slayer spins it. This is the perfect way to spread damage out across a Behemoth, or to use as a point to pivot from as you push the attack.
