I don't think Hirudo was meant to be this powerful.

This is a specialized build of [Hirudo]. I really like this weapon and I modified my frame to fit this weapon (tanky frames work well with [Hirudo])

Meant for melee players who likes beating things up without having to worry about health (up to a certain point, steel path 300+ is kinda insane)

Quite effective on steel path, lv. 300+ corpus dies relatively quickly. You'll occasionally deal hundreds of thousands of damage.

Not very efficient for some 'miniboss' (kuva lich, higher level acolytes). Bring something that can strip armor for those guys. But still it's damn fun

• Naramon focus with maxed Power Spike is essential.
• This build rely on the melee combo counter. However, with sparring weapons you'll reach 12x combo counter quickly.
• Compensating for lack of melee speed mods is Arcane Strike, since it'll crit on every hit past a relatively low combo counter.
• Arcane Fury is also benefical, crit on every hit means the 180% bonus (additive) melee damage is basically guaranteed as long as you're bonking enemies.
• Run with valkyr/subsume her to get her Warcry, use the augment Eternal War so you don't have to babysit the timer.
• Can swap Primed Reach with a riven, preferably one which also has range.
