Anthem Combo Guide: Primers, Detonators, And Each Javelin's Special Effect
(GameSpot PC News)
 


There`s quite a bit that Anthem doesn`t explicitly tell you in its tutorial or first few hours. The basics--such as shooting, dodging, and flying--are covered, but several of the game`s more nuanced mechanics, like executing a combo during combat, are left for you to figure out. Setting up and executing a combo isn`t necessary for beating Anthem, but understanding how to do so--and also knowing how each Javelin does so differently--can really help with tackling the game`s Grandmaster difficulties.To combo in Anthem, you`ll first need to know which of a Javelin`s unique abilities act as a primer and which are a detonator. Primers typically cause a status effect to an enemy, such as ice or acid, and set an enemy up for a combo. A detonator, meanwhile, will execute a combo on an enemy that has been primed. There are also standard abilities in the game, which neither prime nor detonate, and the Storm`s Ultimate attack--Elemental Storm--is both a primer and detonator. In-game, primers are marked in the Forge customization window with a circle icon, and detonators are identified by a four-pronged star icon. If a weapon does neither, you won`t see either symbol.Both primers and detonators can be used alone and still cause enemy damage, much like a standard weapon. However, you`ll want to execute combos as often as you can to do the most damage in the shortest amount of time. Some enemies tend to be bullet sponges and take a while to kill with firearms alone, so detonating a primer on them is a much easier way of dealing with them.Detonating an enemy won`t remove a primer`s effect either, so you don`t have to worry about neutralizing status effects by pulling off a combo. If you freeze a group of enemies with a Ranger`s Frost Grenade, detonating the combo with a Colossus` Lightning Coil won`t unfreeze them. You will have to prime the enemies again for another detonation, but the ice status effect remains until it naturally melts away.It`s also worth noting that each Jav ...
