Let Donnie’s power up work one-handed please

Love you,

The whole point of Donnie’s ability is that it’s meant to be 2 handed

[last owl]

Come on please

[low latch]

Noted Thank you for your suggestion, I will share this with the team

[last owl]

Can you power up holding only one katana or one nunchuck?

[frigid trellis]

The whole point is the 2 hand

Everyone else uses dual weaponry but it specifically requires an extra action

[gusty hazel]

Yes

[frigid trellis]

But for those you have to make a deliberate movement or attack

Like Leo gets power from a Parry
Mikey spins his nunchucks
Raph deals damage
Donnie literally holds his weapon

[gusty hazel]

It makes sense for Donnie’s to be 2 handed that’s how u use a bow staff I mean come on

I don’t think I’ve actually used the bow staff one handed it’s just instinct to use 2 hands

[frigid trellis]

I'd say it's near impossible to use one one handed anyway

[gusty hazel]

True

[frigid trellis]

It's because you can just flail your arms around in this game with no real consequence

[gusty hazel]

I do get hit quite a bit when I try to parry or block sometimes it just goes through

[frigid trellis]

Sounds like a bug

I thought I just was doing something wrong but that's a bug

Same thing happened to me

The bo is quite easy to use one handed actually. The only downside being you get no focus charge. It's great for breaking boxes and killing mousers though in this configuration. Coupled with the damage boost upgrade it is a very useful way to use the bo because of the added range.

Correction, Donatello gets the bonus focus charge from parrying and blocking.

Leo's bonus is slower focus decay and defeating enemies prolongs his focus charge.

[frigid trellis]

I thought that was Leos?

Ah ok

My bad

[near willow]

NBD I get stuff wrong too. haha

I thought the same since tutorial says he needs to hold it 2 handed...made it sound it just charges up without doing anything else.
But no its parry. I actually like holding the staff one handed. I act like a baseball bat hitting the floor briefly before swinging into an enemy.

Also when they are stunned I act like its a pool cue hitting their head

Donatello is my main turtle and I don't think his kit needs to be any stronger. Allowing him to charge focus one handed would be overpowered. Even with him doing half the damage of other turtles because he only has one weapon, this is balanced by the fact that his block/parry is one of the easiest, he can stun, and he gets six tech slots at max harness level. Even with the half damage this game is incredibly easy to kill enemies in. Using the damage bonus upgrade on Donatello makes using the bo one or two handed very powerful as well.
