  1. I think its all preference, but war is mostly impact based despite having a high number in damage. I'm not a fan of impact on a melee but what it all boils down to is what and how you're going to use the weapon 

  2. For an ability that deals only 200 damage and a short stun duration from a burst of electricity, shock really tends to be a bit of a let  down when it comes to higher enemies. I have a few short list of changes that I feel are very simple and will be a welcoming addition to the rework. Some may argue that shock isn't damage based and is based off the proc. However, for this to be true, the stun duration would have to be longer then it currently is. Below are some of my changes of interest for a balance of damage and CC that I think are worth taking a look at

    Damage increases by 500/600/700/800 on the initial target then chains to 7/8/9/10 enemies dealing 50% of the damage over a 2/4/6/8 stun duration 

    Synergies with speed : If Shock is cast while shocking speed is active, shock will chain to 12/13/14/15 enemies with a 7/8/9/10% longer stun duration 

    Synergies with overload : If shock is cast on enemies affected by overload, they will increase the damage output that is released to nearby enemies. If speed is active, shock will increase the stun duration on overload enemies by 1/1.5/2.5/3 seconds and chain to 17/18/19/20 enemies to stun more enemies 

    I think that these changes would complement the rework very well and go hand in hand with the rest of the abilities. Let me know what you guys think =-)

    desecrate I can understand, because many Nekros users build him for farming, and that's fine, but Shock? who even uses that? every Volt I've ever met builds for Speed or overload, and very rarely for Shield. I don't remember ever seeing a Volt spam Shock for the whole game..

    guess it must be newer players choosing Volt (like I did) , and people using it in Conclave.

    You have to spam shock for it to deal a decent amount of damage since it deals only 200 damage with a 2 second stun duration, makes sense to me

    well according to the wiki:

    • Can be used avoid enemy fire due to reduced enemy accuracy when moving fast and dodge almost all Corpus shots since their weapons' projectiles have travel time.

    I guess Grineer are a different story

    I think that,volt's 4th ability should be replaced with somrthing like a "charge" type ability, like if you hold 1 he will consume 100? (or lower if you have efficiency mods) immediately, and then can be "charged" as i have said (typed lol) already and strengthens damage when you charge and then after chargingdeploys a stronger electric bolt (i mean stonger than his current one) and strikes a random enemy so it doesnt get too op but transfers to another enemy if its close enough, and then gets stronger iff passes through an electronic-powered enemy (like heavies and moas) and gets weaker when it passes through normal ones, (but i personally think this is too op lol)

    I've seen a bit of that around here, would be interesting to say the least

    CrudShuzKong is correct, that is the main purpose of this idea.

    Constantly buffing the abilities could lead down a slippery slope and strengthen a CC-centric gameplay. You will eventually always be hit and when the damage reaches the point of oneshot killing you, the best tactic is to continously lockdown the enemies and map with CC. Frames should have a small sliver of survivability without utilizing powers. This would give squishier frames that aren't CC/tanking focused the ability to survive such high damage.

    Without a Shield Gate, we'll continue to see things like this for certain frames:

     

    That's just so depressing! I have to agree! I have to!

    i know this is a "classic" by now, but still from current occasion: volt's shields practically become a prison after reviving, because one can no longer shoot through them.

    i soloed todays sortie 3 mobile defense, it was ugly: after dying from some AOE thingy behind shields i had to leave the defensive target to be able to shoot enemies, especially troublesome with those who had already walked through the shields to destroy the target up close: THEY could hit it but i couldn't hit THEM without getting into suicide range. :I

    this is terribly broken and well, for quite a while now...

    (at least the trouble was worth it as i finally got my final snipetron part as reward :D...)

    I much prefer something done as I feel your pain
