Of course I tried Hysteria Valkyr with maxed power strength, and as I said this is not very impressive compared to weapons with powerful stances we have. And yes, I know how to mod my weapon for Hysteria, no need to tell me that. The question is - do YOU tried to use her in a way I propose?

What you miss, dear  72.230.98.82, is that hysteria deals evenly distributed impact-puncture-slash damage, which isn't good against anything. Elements from regular weapons will give you much more flexibility against specific enemies and also much more damage and you lose them in Hysteria. I also can't remember Hysteria proc status effects more or less often (honestly I checked it today and it didn't proc anything at all by some reason), so even slash part of its damage is kinda useless. What you miss again are stances multipliers, they are huge, just check Cleaving Whirlwind and Tempo Royale pages.

Another thing you lose is 75% bonus speed from berserk. You also won't be able to restore energy via rage so no free channeling here - another - 50% damage for you.

Another person said about control in Hysteria. Maybe, but it isn't even close to control what Tempo Royale can offer to you. Constant enemy ragdolling is no joke. There is also huge bonus damage when you crit against ragdolled enemies.

This last point is very important - I said huge, but this is probably isn't the right word. It's often oneshot 100+ lvl heavys with full armor and unlike finishers you do it without stopping your dance of death, Valkyr with Scindo Prime under War Cry and Berserk effects is a blender. Literally. Hysteria don't give you this feeling, yeah, you can do some damage with ground and paralysis finishers, but besides this it feels more like you tickle enemies. Not fun.
