Increase Energy Consuption For Slash Dash

[Jellyninja12]

my proposal is simple increase the cost of energy for slash dash from 25 to 50 this will stop people from spamming it. give your thaughts thanks

[tengenkujaku]

Why do you want people to stop spamming it, exactly?

[LotLP]

Isn't one of excalibur's perks that you can use slash dash a lot when cornered?

[Genoscythe]

I think ths would not be good, slash dash is one of the only good first skills in the game and skills should be stronger than weapons because you cant use them very often, slash dash might be strong on low levels but skills dont scale with leveling your frame/weapons, so youll get some problems in the later game even if you have maxed out your skill, especially whith shielded enemies.

This ...

[Jellyninja12]

because it anoys me when someone just dos 4 slash dashes and killes all the enemys before anyone gets a chance

[fauxhb]

oh, it annoys you... that's a valid reason

[Aerensiniac]

How about understanding the cause of the problem and not the effect of it?

Albeit... seemingly this exceeds the intellect of most people...

Because it's not a problem in the first place?

This thread is annoying. Delete it already.

[lncarnation]

if you don't want competition for kills play solo...

however

when you kill something you get affinity (exp) for your frame and the weapon used for the kill

when someone else kills something you get affinity for everything

so someone else doing all the work boosts profit

Its a 25 power linear nuke.

Guess which warframe got chosen as the most overpowered on Warframe Wiki's poll. Yes. You are indeed correct. The excalibur.

Despite this, i can fully understand that this is not a problem for anyone playing excalibur. Naturally nobody wants his/her toy to be nerfed in any shape or form.

come on, it's not like he has any other skills that are good or near that effective.

[Ferriwind]

Then should we keep all the other underpowered skills the same? :/

Im just saying. I have nothing on excalibur and i dont mind slash dash either. I merely pointed out what the OP is on about, cause MoonicusMaximus seemingly didnt get the issue. Edited April 5, 2013 by Aerensiniac

[godila2]

realy how about volts that power that kill every enemy? its 100 uses, but if you have that recharge it when basicly you go for taking only loot, without killing

[Bitfly]

So, if they nerf Slash Dash, everyone will be using super jump to make a "Super Jump Attack" instead and steal all the kills. We should also nerf this before people realise (/end troll)

Excalibur was most likely voted most overpowered cause people don't know better. The poll results would fit better on this question: "Which warframe do you think is most commonly used in game?"

Yes this should definitelly happen.

Slash Dash deals more damage than most ultimates and can hit a lot of enemies and yet it cost 1/4 of an ultimate? It should ATLEAST cost 50. Anyone who doesn't agree clearly doesn't care about balance in the slightest and just wants to be able to spam '1'. Excaliburs basically don't use anything else and it's not because the other skills aren't good, it's because their first skill is so damn OP that it overshadows all the others.

Slash Dash oneshots most enemies even on alerts on pluto. It deals more damage than most ultimates and can hit a lot of enemies and yet it cost 1/4 of an ultimate? It should ATLEAST cost 50. Anyone who doesn't agree clearly doesn't care about balance in the slightest and just wants to be able to spam '1'. It's gotten to the point where excalibur users almost only use Slash Dash and it's not because the other skills aren't good, it's because their first skill is so damn OP that it overshadows all the others.

Either the devs need to:

1) Increase cost

2) Nerf range

3) Nerf damage.

You compare Slash Dash to any another 1 ability and you will find all the others beaten hands down. Hell it beats most other abilities int he game period. Especially because it doesnt matter how many enemies are in the way as long as they are within range they are all being taken down.

If someone has a max range increase it really becomes ridiculous to watch them zip around the room and one shot everythng...and even take a sizeable chunk off of the bosses life.

And to be able to spam it against bosses adn quickly wipe them out when other frames dont have a comparable ability?

Ikr, Slash Dash is completely insane if you look at other first skills, only the ultimates are comparable to it when it comes to damage output and kills, but they cost 4 times more and the only sane reacion is: "wtf DE? Just what are you waiting for? Fix it already!"

And even then not all ultimates over-rule it.

Take Blade storm from ash for example.

Sure, it can hit more enemies potentially and they dont need to be lined up or even out of cover, but it costs 4x the energy, and it takes a *lot* longer to use it and then re-use it because it takes around 1 second per target it hits. Also the targeting for blade storm is all sorts of broken at times.

[Kabeta]

Lol wow, WTF is going on with people in this game. You guys complain the game is too damn easy. Then you complain now its too damn hard. What else do you want lol. There is nothing wrong with slash dash, get over it. Have you even tried using the ability yourself. If you don't kill the freakin enemy with it, your stunned right in front of the enemy and then get surrounded. So you want to increase the death chances of it now. Have you ever even got cornered with infested against massive amounts of ancients where your slash dash wouldnt scratch them that much and your just pinned there. And now you want to even nerf it even more lol. Wow why don't you go try and play it abit solo on the lev 35+ and then come back here and see its OP. If anything, alot of powers are underpowered. Slash dash is a melee charging attack that slashes. It's suppossed to be a power hitter. Him and Rhino dont have any elemental powers like the rest of the warframes. They need to have a backup plan with nothing else works.

Well hell ya, what do you expect too see when 98% of the beginner players chose Excalibur for their first frame in the game. And now you guys are whining when they actually have something they enjoy. What the hell is up with people saying nerf crap for. This isn't a PVP game its a PVE game. No needs for nerfing anything at all.
