I’m guessing that the build I found is outdated, how should I build a glaive?

    Slash (and gas) only scale off base damage, crit damage and faction damage. Putting more slash mods on the weapon won’t boost it at all, and since the proc is garaunteed you don’t need it for the weighting either.

      So is my mod setup fine and it’s just that Glaive isn’t effective in SP? I’m not good at modding but it seems like that’s what my setup is for

        I’m sorry but it has to be you brother. The glaive prime is one of the strongest weapons in the entire game, and is widely accepted to be the strongest melee weapon. It might need a couple heavy detonations to kill eximus enemies but that’s why i throw killing blow+amalgam organ shatter+primed fury on it for rapid throws.

        Corrupt charge, primed pressure point, and fever strike, and volatile quick return are all great but you could take one off and only feel a small decrease in viability. Personally, I take off the smite. Doesn’t help against acolytes or thrax and its the best spot to throw attack speed on imo.

        Do start by changing your build to try and closely match the one higher in the thread. Reflex coil is a dead slot here.
