Did They Nerf Mag/mag Prime?

[SaltyFishXD]

While playing with my friends I realized pull and maybe shield polarized is weaker than before..

 

[ROSING]

If it is, it ain't weak enough. (Pull that is)

[SaltyFishXD]

I can barely kill a level 20+ enemy with pull

[xShadowsaur]

They seemed to have nerfed the mag since her buff of last month. It's likely they're continuing to tweak it.

And pull is now LOS.

So it's effective range has dropped.

All things being equal, you're not supposed to.

[ValhaHazred]

And pull is now LOS.

It isn't. I am still perfectly capable of killing things through doors and walls.

It's not quite nerfed, it's just not Armour Ignore damage anymore and Magnetic damage is pretty specific to Shields and Robots.

shield polarize is still great, its just that now grineer don't have shields, so its only effective against corpus and corrupted. but even so, its still one of the most deadly skills. pull was never meant to be on par with an ult, so I'm glad it actually can pull in enemies without killing the entire room (but as someone mentioned, level 20 enemies are what level ~50 enemies used to be, so pull starts losing its edge by that point)

[Darktemplar333]

Yea pull is LOS, but crash is better now, it doesn't need LOS

[Xiphil]

Mag's pull is good enough withought having to kill high levels outright. Unless they nurf it into the ground .

I have a feeling that pull is based on the camera's LOS, rather than Mag's.  I tried by facing a wall but having my camera peer around the corner and pulling, still got the enemies beyond the wall.  But look at a box with an enemy behind it (even for the camera) and it won't pull them.

I was running Apollodorus yesterday, leveling my MAg up, and there were times when I killed enemies behind closed doors.  I wonder if starting the cast when the door is partially open, even the smallest amount, had something to do with that.  I found that I had few problems with the non-heavy grenier at level 20.

That actually makes a lot of sense. It explains why I can pull things slightly behind me. However I can still pull things the camera can't actually see as long as it's in the area.

Edit: See? In no way can Mag or the camera see those guys.
