I don’t play mag that much, but hey more power to mag users. Obligatory Cynical response: Of course it is. DE is a letter short of EA. Its not like they said after the Tennocon 2019 that this would be a freature when they added New Player Experience. No. They didnt. Those were montages and voice recording of fragmented words put togheter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltage Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 This is cool, but at the same time, a little sad. It took from TennoCon 2019 to now to release this, and it just looks like a copy-pasted Nyx ability. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the down side if you're a pessimist and expect her to get even more messed up from it. Either way yay for Mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone remember how two Tennocons ago we saw mag do a Neo bullet return move, and DE said that would be added as an augment? Looks like they did even better and just made it part of the core ability. According to Reb, it stops projectiles, but not melee or AoE damage. It also seems to deal damage in a cone like a shotgun. Looks really gun to be honest and a nice buff to mags survivability Oh wow, so if Nyx’s 4 WITH an augment doesn’t at least become as good magnetize, haha I’m just joking it’s nyx. Nyx is WF’s Meg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many of the abilities in this game have the "tap for one thing, hold to switch or do it the other way" and many of them are inconsistent with each other. Because of the frames I play, I use the option to switch which is which, which makes several lesser used frames feel off. This tap/hold being added to Mag is probably going to make her super clunky for me to use now because I'm probably going to end up needing to hold just to use normal Magnetize. They really need to let us pick individually for each ability what we want tap to do and hold to do. It gets a little clunkier with each new ability with this that they add. Did you read the part where it says “ tap for normal magnatize”? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)C11H22O11 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 she's still vulnerable to hooks, melee, tar, poison clouds, etc. Doesn't look like Nyx lost her 4 at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't Magnetized Negate the effect ? Anyway for those who don't know already. Maggy can avoid taking Damage from almost all projectiles by simply Hopping into her own bubble... the Trick is to avoid standing exactly in the Center. I'm assuming DE noticed this behaviour and just decided to stream line the ability so to make it easier for her to be in her own Bubble. Long Story Short.... Pull is still dissapointing.

(NSW)Edcaous Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 This is really cool, but on Switch you have to hold two buttons at once to activate the ability. It's going to be impossible to move or look around while using that ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we wait for Volt to nearly stop time (teammates included for added trolling) like he does in the trailer, because of how fast he is. And Excal's shockwave from Radial Javelin. Seriously on this one. The slow down effect is just to show how fast a speedster moves in comparison with others.

DogsConkers Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Nice I don't see many mags out there and this buff makes sense to help with new player retention if they chose Mag. I take her out for a spin sometimes but haven't quite got the hang of her and find myself always on the edge of being insta-killed. I'm just too impatient to put in the effort. I know one streamer that uses her a lot. Great for Hijack missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just too impatient to put in the effort. I always feel that way when playing Mag Solo, atleast at high levels. Even with Shield Gating which makes her easier to play, i still think of her as a Glass Cannon. Wreck the enemies in Secs but the Player gets murdered if they make mistakes.

The trailer version while performing similar to Nyx doesn't visually copy it. The Tweeted clip is literally just Absorb with a Line of Sight nerf and no invulnerability. It's a copy paste of Nyx and sad to have taken a year when it doesn't even look original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loza03 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Just now, Voltage said: The trailer version while performing similar to Nyx doesn't visually copy it. The tweet is literally just Absorb with a Line of Sight nerf and no invulnerability. The changes can be pretty easily explained. The initial sphere (a one-handed grab about the size of Mag's head) would be borderline useless at actually catching bullets if it was at the trailer size (and we still need to know its actual range, especially if other player's bullets are affected by it), and the full 'grid pattern' animation would be slow and not really noticeable without the close-up, so they streamlined it. Simply put - it looks and behaves similarly to Absorb because they share similar practical requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
