So, Necrotronus’ Sp1 is a melee attack?

Why exactly is Necrotronus Sp1 considered a melee attack? I used it against Rhinox and got shocked and died. I don’t see how that works.

    Crackers too, I think?

    Back to the old primal "ranged melee" thing I guess ...

    I think it might be tied to the evade reduction? I could be wrong. It stinks that scorp's dazed is ineffective as well.

    Necrotronus S1 melee
    Primal heavy melee
    Ultra Magnus S1 ranged

    🤔

    You sure about Magnus? I'm pretty sure I've seen Magnus get shocked against Rhinox via SP1.

    Well, Arcee proc’ed evade ranged against it so I’m going to say yes. I’ll see if I can record it if I ever get a match up.

    Arcee can also evade Primal's heavy even though that heavy can cause a Bonecrusher Bleed or Rhinox Shock.

    I think I've also seen Arcee evade Magnus' SP1.

    You know, now that I think about it, there was this whole thing about Primal’s heavy being a ranged attack with a melee hit. Or that’s what it was settled on or something. So if Necro’s S1 and UM’s S1 had a baby…

    She might be an exception here but i inflicted daze debuff on magnus and still my scorponok didn't miss his hammer wave.

    wasn't it assumed that UM was the opposite of Primals? Being a melee attack with a range damage? Why the hammer can get the Overclock and Arcee can evade. Overclock is based on type of attack and Evade procs based on the type of damage.. Why Prowl's SP2 (melee damage) doesn't trigger overclock and only melee evades can evade his sp2.

    I dunno...#kabamphysics
