Guide to all Aberrant weapon forms in Control Resonant: Strike 30-60, Crush 127-222, Sharp vs Blunt types, Living Shards unlock route, and endgame tier list.
Fast-attacking primary Aberrant form that deals 30-60 damage and carries an innate 30% Critical Chance, the only one of the three starting forms with crit chance.
Scythe-like medium-speed primary form with long reach that hits multiple enemies at once while pushing them back, dealing 70-90 damage per hit.
Axe-like all-rounder primary form dealing a consistent 65 damage with medium reach and speed, more effective when hitting enemies from behind.
Slow but powerful secondary hammer form dealing 127-222 Blunt damage and 21-42 Falter; it can be charged for even more damage and is ideal against enemies with shields.
Faster secondary form dealing 95-280 Sharp damage and 0-21 Falter; you can charge it to drill enemies longer and apply Falter over time.
Long-range, medium-speed secondary form dealing 63-127 Raw damage and 0-21 Falter; it hits multiple targets in front of you and can be charged to increase damage and Falter.
Combat Ability that sends projectiles toward an enemy, dealing 60-180 Blunt damage and 12-36 Falter at a cost of 400 Power.
Combat Ability that summons an ally you can throw and detonate; it deals more damage the less health it has.
Combat Ability that raises a shield of debris absorbing damage up to your Power meter; pressing Dodge converts it into a Shield Bash that deals 100 Blunt damage and 60 Falter.
Badge artifact awarded for defeating The Artist in the prologue; when activated and equipped, it offers a buff.
Retribution talent in Control Resonant: grants +25% more Falter damage while Retaliation is active. Full unlock requirements and talent pairings.
Talent: Retaliation recovers +50% more Power, refueling the resource that Combat Abilities consume.
Talent: Activates Keen after an Execution. Keen grants +20% Critical Chance to all Melee attacks for a short duration.
Talent: Increases the lifetime of all Summons by +50%; IGN calls it the pick of the Summon talents.
Phase transition telegraphs, Falter stagger multipliers, and evasion iframe timing for high-threat paranatural encounters.
Strike's innate 30% Critical Chance is the only crit baseline among the primary forms. Executing a stunned enemy procs Keen from Decisive Step-Up for +20% Critical Chance on all Melee attacks, while Retribution adds +25% more Falter to the Retaliation window opened by a Perfect Dodge.
Crush is a Blunt hammer form dealing 127-222 damage and 21-42 Falter, and IGN documents it as ideal against enemies with shields. Follow the stagger with Barrage, a 400 Power ability dealing 60-180 Blunt damage and 12-36 Falter from range.
Extend hits multiple targets at long range for 63-127 Raw damage and 0-21 Falter, grouping pressure on a pack. Detonate Volatile Anomaly inside it for 150-350 Blunt explosive damage and up to 25-180 explosion Falter; the summon deals more damage the less health it has.
Cleave deals a consistent 65 damage and is documented as more effective when hitting enemies from behind. Perfect Dodge to trigger Retaliation (+25% more Falter with Retribution), reposition behind the target, and convert the boosted Falter into a stun and Execution.
Shield costs 150 Power to raise and absorbs damage up to your Power meter; Shield Bash spends 180 Power to deal 100 Blunt damage and 60 Falter. Because Combat Abilities are the only Power sink, Perfect Dodge into Retaliation with Sanctioned Retaliation recovering +50% more Power refuels the meter between defensive casts.
Drill deals 95-280 Sharp damage and 0-21 Falter, and you charge it to drill enemies longer. IGN recommends Decisive Step-Up for Aberrant Forms that attack quickly or multiple times in a row, making Drill a natural carrier for the +20% Critical Chance Keen window after each Execution.
