End Game Augment For Hydroid's Tempest Barrage

[(PSN)DanceOnUrGav3]

Augment:acid rain- Tempest Barrage has a chance to proc corrosive. It's a little bit of a stretch thematically, but it will help Hydroid scale into endgame by reducing enemy armor. Thoughts?

Not worth a slot. Just use low range Hydroid and tempest barrage will be neat CC.

awww yisssss, really like the idea of this one, kinda like Ash's shuriken augment.

Not much of a stretch in my mind.....Acid rain can and does have corrosive effects.

I say heck yes to this idea.

not whort a slot, as wherever you could use this you should always use 4x corrosive projection instead

And what about players who want to use a different aura, or can't find a squad with 4X CP? This augment would allow versatility and scalability into late game

corrosive procs have diminishing returns and so does the armor meaning that every time it procs it takes away less armor and reducing armor values by 30/40% doesn't have huge effects unless you get 8+ corrosive procs on the same target on high armor targets

So many augments are already getting the overly niched benefit of reducing armor and people are asking for more of these boring mods? How about we fix armor scaling to not be so absurd instead so we don't have to rely on these boring bandaid mods?

[Corvo-The-Reaper]

agreed to the idea.

[AkerTheSpjot]

To be honest, this is a good idea, I love Hydroid and all, but we should buff him so he can be more reliable in late game content rather than relying on augments, which is all that Hydroid is getting

Might as well just bring CP.  This would be a waste of a slot unless it caused them to proc 100% on every hit, and even then it would still be a stretch.  Also, bandaids for bandaids.
