Ketec Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Those who have him know why - but that's the only reason most people even play with him. Can expect loads of qq cuz their favorite previous frame isn't the best anymore at tanking or damage. This far, without the 1/2 bonuses its a complete lackluster in everything else.

-FV-Wsocks Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Elemental Ward is currently very broken. It will be fixed and people will call it a nerf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyDevil Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Are you actually QQing about Chroma being OP? He is fine where he is and any bugs that are found will get fixed. Fixes aren't nerfs. I bet you're a Valkyr player because i hear a lot of them whining about Chroma being tankier than her. Elemental Ward is currently very broken. It will be fixed and people will call it a nerf. It can bug out and stack if multiple Chroma spam it with short duration? You're also right. Anything that is a fix will be called a nerf by people.

Absens Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) I wont consider a frame that doesnt even have an ultimate skill op. Its like hey this new frame is cool lets give him credit farming mechanics instead of a proper ultimate :O Nah he is only good if you max duration and get a high power str build WHILE also building tanky. I honestly don't think he is a good support, too Edited March 23, 2015 by Absens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketec Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 no.. im saying that it will receive nerf bat after loads of people start using it and calling buffs op - as it has happened wit hall the good things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat_Jam Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Chroma's pretty balanced where he currently stands. He's only very tanky (possibly better than Valkyr) if you pay attention to your surroundings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only very tanky (possibly better than Valkyr) if you pay attention to your surroundings. He definitely surpasses Valkyr in the tank department minus the invincibility. With high power strength, you can expect like 630%+ increase to your armor. I heard he can get a 900% armor increased but i haven't tested it yet. Remember Blessing? Those delicious tears... Hysteria might get that treatment someday. Edited March 23, 2015 by EmptyDevil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achromos Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Chroma's pretty balanced where he currently stands. He's only very tanky (possibly better than Valkyr) if you pay attention to your surroundings. Yea, Chroma is either... an... Self-Buffing-Tank or... Team-Buffing-Tank Chroma requires the user to have a bit of Competency when using him. He's no Rhino 2.0, definitely. No offense to Rhino Users, I just find Rhino very simplistic... Anyway, if he is built right he can definately do great 40-50-60+ minutes into a T4 Survival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsukinoki Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 @Public_StalkerIt works best with minimal duration but what you can do is:-Cast one ward, such as the fire ward, and get a health increase.-Second chroma comes up and casts another fire ward.-First chromas fire wards duration ends but health doesn't go down like it should-First chroma recasts fire ward for even more HP gains.-Second chromas fire wards duration ends but health doesn't go down like it should-Second chroma recasts fire ward for even more HP gains.Repeat forever.Leads to a situation like this: http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/534014267263726958/93CA82FB402A2351A46AEFB02E6C5A2F11A54B54/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluelitHalo Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Considering that Elemental Ward can be stacked to give up to 30k HP, there's no doubt he'll be receiving a fix soon. Edited March 23, 2015 by Sonitorum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evanescent Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 If they fix the stacking, fine. It wasn't intended anyway. But the rest of him is very balanced.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought people were saying the base was outright broken because he can facetank multiple nullifier shots. This needs to be fixed. Off-topic: Do you know how to build Chroma? My build currently is fine and allows me to tank nullifier shots, but I don't really think I'm doing it quite right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKage Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Just the stacks of his 2 needs to be fixed , and spectral scream should be buffed a little, everything else is fine, most balanced frame yet Edited March 23, 2015 by MrKage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesiga Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 LOL @ the 30k hp. I use ice chroma cause defensive use- reflecting bombard missiles is ftw. So I've never experienced that. If he gets super nerfed instead of unintended things fixed I wasted 3 forma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draciusen Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) I don't see a real reason to 'nerf' Chroma other than fixing Elemental Ward to prevent him from becoming another Cryopod. Loki's still invaluable for disarming the entire map and creating subsequent mass confusion with his augment. Nova can halt enemy action to a near standstill while amplifying all damage dealt by her squad Banshee can lock down an entire tile, amplify teammates damage to incredible amounts, and still packs quite a bit of versatile CC Ash and Mesa can kill everyone on the map in mere seconds Trinity is still an infinite energy source Vauban continues to invalidate the existence of the Infested Chroma can take a lot of damage and dish out a lot of his own. So can Valkyr, Rhino, etc. What can Chroma do in particular, barring the crazy 2 scaling, that provides an immense advantage that cannot be done with any other frame? Or rather, how does he make other frames not worth playing? He doesn't. Edited March 23, 2015 by Draciusen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to get in harms way constantly with valkyr to keep your energy up to spam her ULT. And I don't see why you'd complain about iron skin. It melts pretty fast in higher levels. Chroma can become tankier then both of them without any effort at all and his is based on duration unlike a damage threashold for iron skin. And he still has access to all of his guns while being tankier. Unlike hystaria where the damage does begins to fall off. If anything chroma is easier then both and not only aids team mates better but synergizes with other frames better. I'm not saying chroma is OP. But I really dislike it when people call valkyr/rhino noobie frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
