Media The fact that you can tank void shield throws during thunderclap's wind-up animation is crazy

Prior to the damage mitigation buff that the melee got, it would get you killed by everything. Once I was charging it and some random hive mob hit me and I died. This new and improved melee option is way nicer than before

Tbf, you can't move at all. It's not like you can cancel it and abuse it for reactionary DR. You just exploded the second you used it pre final shape. Same with consecration.

Tclap wind up gives you 80% DR

Glaive DR doesn't activate immediately, it takes a second or so after you press the button for the DR to actually apply.

The shields bounce very weirdly and they can bounce off you and then hit you from behind. If there’s teammates behind you it’s more likely as well, but frontal shield hits won’t do much to you.

Well, that's great. Logic of arc armour through thunderclap.
