AugustFestival Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 the javlok changes nerfed ember with the ability to set yourself on fire and trigger the passive, yea we have Cautious shot and the penta napalm now but its really not the same, the penta mod is locked behind nightwave and while the cautious shot is accessible to all you do need to grind arbitration's to get it and the javlok has good status chance. DE please revert the javlok changes or better yet simply make the javlok do self damage only for ember, signature weapons exist so we know its possible to do that and its a fix that no one should be unhappy with, its also not a change that I imagine requires a lot of work to implement, I anticipate some dismissal in reply but playing a staff wielding fire mage made ember fun and much more viable even in the current state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pro3Display Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 wow it nerfed ember for the whole 1.5 people who did that 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Hikuro-93 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Well, I can see where this comes from, but I mostly agree with the change. It's a QoL buff for Javlok, one that'll make me use it more, and it shouldn't depend on a frame's skills. Same for Ember, because if she needs Javlok to be good it would mean she's poop, which is something I also disagree with. So while inconvenient in terms of niche play, it's overall a very nice addition imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LascarCapable Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 For that Ember playstyle, it looks like a nerf I guess. For everyone else, that's a buff. The solution is to get Ember a better passive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So while inconvenient in terms of niche play, it's overall a very nice addition imo. the thing is that they could do many many things so we both get what we want without making largescale changes to ember, they could make javlok only self damage ember or even more of a pipe dream, they could add self ignite to embers 1 when you charge it. Yes they could just make ember better, but its obvious that isn't going to happen anytime soon, so the least they could do is not ruin any fun play styles that ember players come up with. Especially because this is a case where you CAN have your cake and eat it, you can have both changes. I really wish people weren't so dismissive, oh well.

In any case, I believe she's in for another rework this year. After Wukong and Vauban, that is. And a proper rework this time, not a band-aid to complaints, so I guess we'll see how it turns out.

HankHuley Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 So if the change are good for you, how many time i should wait for play again ? 1 year ? 2 year ? => play another frame ! But i don't whant to, This is the only one with i have a good feeling and have fun to play, so if i can't play her anymore... then i will not play at all, to much time and mind thinking for have a acceptable build, with more of range but less of somthing else ect ect ... And of course i buy with money new skin for her yesterday... so yes i am very ! "Happy" ! Time to sell the riven, and search for another weapon who can do the same thing without killing me at every shot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HankHuley Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) I have zarr, but with 375 shield and 300 hp... It's like to put a rocket launcher in my own mouth and ask did i will survive ? Not enought mod slot for life or shield augment. Or maybe remove sprint put an art of "range" (don't know the name in english) remove range mod and probably i will can make a littler slot for vigor mod. But less range = less hit = less damage = less CC = more damage taken... this infinite circle... And way more to slow... I also try to remove growing power for an physiqual aura +90 % life, but push 300 hp to 390... 300 + 90 % = 570 hp ?? normaly. or i don't understand something.

DE, stop gutting frame abilities. Either rework an ability/frame properly or leave it alone. This whole "x gets worse over n amount of y" nonsense is completely awful, as is nerfing augments that prop an otherwise trashy ability up. It makes things dysfunctional and unfun to play. Even when they still end up "working" in the long run! Just look at Valkyr! ...On a related note, I wish people knew what the Cottage Rule was these days. Kinda relevant given the game its from recently resurrected from the grave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
