@@littlebadassgaming You do realize all of those options are limited usage, right? Meanwhile this is an infinite-use secondary? Why are you assuming my skill so confidently lol.
Something that can completely ignore riot shields always puts a smile on my face. Wouldn’t hate them so much if it weren’t for the coked-out Battle tortoises that pop up sometimes
In my experience, the heavy slash perfect against any one hit kill weapon or when on low health. Since initiating the animation is near instant, you can essentially use it as a "lockout" or safety tool especially against melee users.
Yes I believe Ace forgot to mention the "Locked in animation" time, because being shot at for 250ms with the quick slash is worse than not being shot at at all with the heavy slash if it instantly locks the enemy in
Honestly such fun weapon to use- I wish that had just switched the button layout. Quick slash should be your fire button and heavy should be aim down sight. I kind of need to rewire my brain a bit when using it
Inadvertently found a counter to this. If you hold a throwing knife, when someone does the heavy slash you'll immediately throw the knife right at them and kill them.
Interesting Warzone 3 stats, that I am pretty sure are true: -Heavy Swing will only execute the Finishing move from behind or the side, it will deal 150 damage to the front -If the enemy is at or below 150hp (plates broken) a Heavy swing from the front will perform the Finishing move -Note that the Finishing move KILLS the player immediately, they don't get downed even if they have a self-revive or you are playing Duos/Trios/Quads (-The Quick Swing deals 150 DMG)
Is it better to use the Light Swing or Heavy Swing in Warzone? Also, does the Light Swing lock in the enemy in Warzone with the animation like the Heavy Swing does?
It makes the riot shield useless it would be tine with quick slash only riot shield is the only counter i have to snipers there are already thermites semtex and a flamethrower why does there need to be an easy way to take out riot shields
Apart from a little problem of not being able to tac sprint for a whole second after using a throwing knife the melee is extremely fun to use, if only that bug got patched I would be using it permanently.
You can run around with heavy attack button held down. This holds the sword up, ready to strike. I am curious what that does to the attack times etc...
I imagine quick slash is probably still a lot faster, but it does remove the need to react in time as long as you get close enough. That might explain how I've felt like I got the upper hand using it against other melee users, I thought there was some counter mechanic or something lol.
I like anything that counters the Riot Shield. Typically the thermite has been my go to weapon but I'll have to check this new sword out. There's gonna be a lot of sword fighting going on. Perhaps they'll put a Soulrender only map in the play list. :)
You're better off with semtex or thermite, a good sheilder will throw something at you as soon as you pull the sword out. However the sword is fun and super satisfying killing people with it
@@thomasdick6797really? The meter seems to move at different speeds depending on what you're holding. If you're holding a heavier weapon and then change to a lighter weapon while the meter is refilling, it even moves backwards as if to say you get more tac sprint with the lighter weapon.
I can't get over how hard the riot shield nerfs hurt melee. I get wanting to punish riot shield speed but I feel like those speed nerfs should only be applied when using multiple primary weapons. It's hard enough to use a knife or a pistol compared to primary weapons especially on the big maps in this game. Just feels completely overkill to hurt the secondary gameplay when those players are already choosing a disadvantage with their loadout.
They gotta do something about the annoying delay after using equipment with the Soul Render. Every time I throw a knife or Shuriken, I cant swing or sprint for a good second or 2 and its extremely annoying. It feels really clunky. Even having Ordnance gloves doesn't help it.
I love this weapon, its so much fun to use. Though realistically i wouldnt waste my secondary slot on something just to counter riot shields. Its easier to stick them with a semtex or thermite
I would have liked to see how long it takes after pressing the button for the enemy to be locked into the animation for the heavy attack If, for instance, they were locked in in 100 ms, than the heavy attack might be better in 1v1 scenarios because the enemy is forced to stop firing 150 ms earlier, which is pretty significant
For a pure melee build, I still prefer the Karambit outside of the Soulrender's ability to counter riot shields. But if I feel like melee-ing people, usually I just throw the underbarrel chainsaw onto the SVA-545 and use a mixed build that can shoot at medium range and jab the chainsaw into people close-up.
we need more ways to counter shield users that are not tacticals and lethals and seeing how this sword does that it is great too many people use it as a crutch as is
@@littlebadassgaming direct impact with launcher is blocked and if player is facing you iven splash damage is blocked if the the splash comes from the front and if they have eod say goodbye to both of your shots with it also trophies exist crossbow is useless for the most part in mp. too slow to reload shotguns with most ammo types are also blocked and didnt know about the chainsaw because i dont use that attachment slot for underbarrel stuff other than angle grips
@@maksimslhernault4042Flamethrower and Chainsaw then They're not gonna tailor your meta playstyle to counter shields, you gotta take some off-meta options to counter then
@@trystanfrank9206 we do that to but we derank from our current skill group in the sbmm then when we use the shields we are fighting potatoes and it’s great. However anyone with skill uses all the different counters and shields are useless.
Hey Ace I want to thank you so much for all you gun guides and tips on MW3. I love the dual kodachis but after this new melee gun guide I am going to switch to the soulrender.
I don't know why, I find it damn funny everytime I get killed with this thing hahaha. I guess coz of how it just switches to a mini cutscene and boom you're dead LOL
I really like SHGames' focus on delivering content the community likes. I'm still enjoying MWIII quite a lot despite SBMM at times. However, they really need the longbow. I'm having OG MW2 PTSD x 2 from it. It is so ridiculous I got 112 kills with it on Das Haus, had a 19 gunstreak with it and got killed on Karachi on a 25 gunstreak by the most ridiculous quickscope. It is unbalanced with a high TTK
Does the perk strong arm or sleight of hand, in warzone allow faster weapon swap and faster equipment use? Lastly, does the perk Flex make your footsteps completely silent? And if not, is there a perk that does any of these things in warzone? Thx for any info!
Sadly the soulrender is garbage to go up against. And if 2 or 3 are on the opposing team on any mode consistently using the heavy attack will definitely warrant frustration specifically for the animation lock. It being a 800 ms animation and shitty spawns on das house or some other small map and they’re spawn killing, say they get 3-4 kills thats 3200 ms or 3.2 seconds on a game of hardpoint where seconds matter is this day an age of sbmm. Cant even get out of spawn half the time if the enemy runnin like the flash and flashes constantly.
The only thing i dont like about these gun guides, is that they dont ever really include having fun as part of the review. the soulender heavy slash is so much fun to use and is very satisfying even though it’s objectively bad. wish there were more fun builds or interesting ways to play shown off both in the gun guides and the reviews. (go for more finishing moves! They’re fun to watch!)
I know I’m late to the conversation, but with the light slash on the soulrender, is the enemy locked in like the heavy hit? I just need to know for Warzone purposes. With the heavy hits on Warzone, after like one or two hits, the enemy not only is locked in with the animation, but is dead immediately. Is it the same for the light hit?
Theres apparently a bug with the soul render, Theseknivesonly realised, after throwing a throwing knife, or switching weapons, it doesnt let the player melee immediately, lost many fights because missing a throwing knife or switching weapons messes up the timing and doesnt do anything when trying to slash
Been using the soul render in loaded resurgence, I find that execution on RT to be very inconsistent and the quick slash is nothing compared to the tonfa TTK
I'd rather have my enemy be completely unable to do anything to me while I deal 300 damage than do 2 swipes to do the same damage and let the enemy fire bullets all the while. For warzone that's just OP.
So funny that the soulrender animation can technically be interrupted, and the player who is being hit can survive, even though the first slash would be enough to end them lol
I didnt see this mentioned anywhere, maybe I missed it. You can use the melee button for the quick slash instead of using the ADS button/trigger. I could not get the hang of pulling the left teigger for a quick attack.
wish you would have tested if and how long the heavy slash delay is till the enemy can no longer shoot back. So the time till execution lock cause if its instant it would be better to heavy in 1v1
I'm curious if the Heavy Slash finishing animation has priority over a normal slash. In other words, who wins in the event of melee vs melee if both are within each other's lunge range? Also, Jak Ripper went through shields while revving, if that hasn't changed. It doesn't have the lunge, so Soulrender is the better option.
I dont get it they add cool things like this makes me think they draw straws one week be like lets add a sword that can counter riot shields then next week lets add barbie to the game...like wtf!!!
Just want to add, the heavy slash is actually very viable Yes the riot shield counter is great BUT what it also does is lock your opponent in place and cancels their inputs. Against a tonfa or a melee with really short range or slow speed, you're at a major advantage because you can usually put them in the execution animation, canceling their actions. It's also insanely good for warzone because it completely ignores the downed state and instantly kills them (you have to 2 plates or less to get the execution animation)
If the animation lock actually happens immediately after pressing the button, it seems it could very well be optimal in situations besides riot shielders. 250ms could easily be the difference between living and dying against a guy shooting back.
I haven't unlocked it yet but I think I prefer it automatically. I was using the karambit but with the nerf, and losing my range I cant with it, trying to stab people while they run away and im just poking at them them with no lunge is annoying, I need my lunge, and with the sould ender Im not losing much except .10 of tac sprint speed. but I get a better range so Im perfectly fine with this
While it's 800ms to finish off someone with the heavy attack, how long is it to START the animation so at least that enemy can't do anything about it? And if you hold to charge, how long after you release until animation start?
Nope. Only from the sides and behind. I also tested in a MP 300hp private match and it was only killing from the sides and behind, tried multiple times to get the finisher from the front and it didnt work with 300hp.
what are the times for starting the animation from button push and what is the time to start the animation from "pre-charging" the heavy slash? I've used the animation lock to stop people from killing me to a good degree of success, depending on if I can break their tracking on me or if they just miss their shots.

Interesting Warzone 3 stats, that I am pretty sure are true:
-Heavy Swing will only execute the Finishing move from behind or the side, it will deal 150 damage to the front
-If the enemy is at or below 150hp (plates broken) a Heavy swing from the front will perform the Finishing move
-Note that the Finishing move KILLS the player immediately, they don't get downed even if they have a self-revive or you are playing Duos/Trios/Quads
(-The Quick Swing deals 150 DMG)
Having a detached head generally leaves people dead.
Is it better to use the Light Swing or Heavy Swing in Warzone? Also, does the Light Swing lock in the enemy in Warzone with the animation like the Heavy Swing does?
I personally prefer the karambit, but the soul render is lowkey more fun to use 😂
I wish you could change the map buttons on this weapon. Feels weird using left trigger for quick hits.
yeah i would like it a lot more if L2 was the heavy attack
Whoever worked on this melee weapon definitely do not play the game.
The riot shield can counter the heavy slash if you are higher in elevation. Like ontop of a box.

Can they just Grow TF up and make the Sprint speed the same for all the melee weapons?

So a melee weapon can counter a riot shield but not score streaks or armor piercing rounds? I want whatever Activision/sledgehammer is smoking.

While it's 800ms to finish off someone with the heavy attack, how long is it to START the animation so at least that enemy can't do anything about it? And if you hold to charge, how long after you release until animation start?
Bro does this instantly kill a fully plated warzone player? I know the 300 damage would suggest yes but sometimes the numbers lie lol
No clue. Warzone is its own thing and often has different stats
Nope. Only from the sides and behind. I also tested in a MP 300hp private match and it was only killing from the sides and behind, tried multiple times to get the finisher from the front and it didnt work with 300hp.
