The combo potential of all the weapon types/abilities shown so far!
Just finished watching Hidden Machine's video on Control Resonant. They show a LOT of footage of the weapon and ability selection screen. Here's what I found so far:
Inside the mind palace (where Jessie placed the Abberant) Dylan finds a void with monolithic rocks. One has 3-4 paintings in white of the half face woman we see in the trailer, a bird-frog-like creature crouching, and a giant orb and a smaller one underneath.
You can interact with each painting and choose its Resonant Reward aka Abilities. For the half face woman she has:
Seekers (Summon a telekenetic entity that attacks enemies and can be thrown/exploded)
Shield (absorb damage and shield bash w/ dodge)
Third option (top left corner, diamond with streams coming from it)
Dylan can equip 2 loadouts of 3 abilities. In the video there are about 5 that we see:
Ground Slam (concussive wave, bigger from higher up)
Construct (saw symbol, summon an astral plane spike to attack, builds up Astralized status)
Shield (see above)
Seekers (see above, orb symbol)
Flame Wave (triangle symbol, create increasingly fast fire blasts, in a cone in front of you)
And then later in the video, we discover Dylan can equip THREE Weapon Forms:
Slice (high damage, single target, "robust combo options")
Slash (wide sweeping, multiple target, knockback)
Crush (slow, high damage, charged to increase weapon size and damage)
Drill (quick stabs or continuous drill, large DOT)
Bludgeon (fists, quick, knockback, and "deals a great amount of Falter")
Split (like a shuryiken, continous damage floating midair)
And some damage types you'd expect to see:
Raw damage
Sharp (effective against Overshields)
Fire
And when we see combat, we see a few different effects next to enemy health bars:
White Cross + Red Background (assuming bleed damage)
Diamond with 3 mushrooms (Spore damage, poison)
Astralized (no description, comes from attacks related to the Astral plane)
Falter (no description, may be related to stun or slow)
And in the Build Power menu which shows details related to your level (for all you min/maxers), you can see things under General like:
Crit Damage
Crit Falter
Crit Ability Resource Recovery
Bloodlust Damage
Bloodlust Falter
Retaliation Damage
Retaliation Falter
Melee Potency
I'll try to add more if I can find it here but I am so pumped for this game and wanted to share what all the weapon types and stuff were. Did you see something I'm missing? What do you think??
