Why on Earth is the game spreading misinformation? The Mantis Claws are obviously slower than the Katana if you actually swing them, yet the game claims that the Claws are a full point faster.

    Idk why I said claws I meant blades.

    For context, the Katana’s attack speed is 1.7, much, slower than the Blades on paper. Its like the game doesn’t count cyberware even though it counts skills from the reflex tree. Is this a bug? How do I fix this?

    Maybe because there is mantis blades has two blades making strikes so it makes for more hits per second even though they are moving slower. (This is just a guess).

    I don’t know, but you clearly need to call the dev’s mother who designed this so that she can be properly disappointed in him.

    Calm down there, hoss. It’s called a bug*, every game has them, and it’s no reason to act like there’s some dev conspiracy to misinform people.

    *If it really swings slower, it’s a bug. I’ve never used either weapon so I can’t say what’s right or wrong.

    It’s been a bit since I’ve used mantis blades but could this be because they can continue swinging without stopping but katanas have to pause after a 3 hit combo? So over enough time the mantis blades get more attacks off?

    My guess is when they nerfed them when they added Phantom Liberty and the new skill page they, forgot to change the flavor text.

    Could be wrong but maybe the speed is relative to the other arm cyberware?

    That’s like saying two daggers are slower than two-handed weapons.
