TruZender Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So on the latest Devstream it was confirmed that Volt and Mag would be getting reworks to put them on Excal's level? In what way could Volt in particular be brought to Excalibro's level in your guys' opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
----Dante---- Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 just give him new 4 @_@ and maybe they give hes 1st skill combo system like another press of 1 button - right hand>left hand>both hands for more dmg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonknight525 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'll quote a post I did not too long a go to share my thoughts on a possible replacement for it. Overload: Currently it is really lackluster at doing anything right now, as the damage is easily resisted, the variable damage boost and very short stun time add up to not a lot. So the change here will be to make it deal damage over a duration rather than all at once. On cast it will deal a burst of damage with a guaranteed electric status effect, and then dealing damage in the area with a random chance of causing an electric status. Aside from his ult he doesn't need much changing, as he is more or less "OK" right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoner Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I don't get why they need a rework. Volt's ultimate needs one but besides.. I don't see why they need one. Mag is fine. DE don't touch Mag plz... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoiiToori Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I really hope they only touch his 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaotyke Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I really hope they only touch his 4. They will touch his 1 as well, it will be toggleable, but you wont be able to sprint or use weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TARINunit9 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Volt was originally billed as an "alternative to gunplay". I wonder if they're try and go back to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruZender Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 They will touch his 1 as well, it will be toggleable, but you wont be able to sprint or use weapons. I don't see that being as easily usable as what we have now. Say you're reloading and need a bit off cc, bam insta shock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluff-E-Kitty Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It would be cool if overlord was a toggle and you could jest walk (or float or somehting) around and have it be kinda like embers jest with lighitning. for that matter it would be nice to see shilds do damage to things that try to pass throught them. more a barrior at that point but meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from his ult he doesn't need much changing, as he is more or less "OK" right now. the cc could be good but aside from that meh, and I agree about you about him being okay but as the devs stated the frame choice for starters is more or less obvious right now. Thow of course we could just... nerf Excal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)Grihaly Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Ideas for the 4? Retractable plasma energy blades..... No. Volt is not a melee frame. They will touch his 1 as well, it will be toggleable, but you wont be able to sprint or use weapons. THAT, would be amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruZender Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 No. Volt is not a melee frame. THAT, would be amazing! he can be and in his description there was something about providing "an alternative to gunplay" which well the only thing I can think of is melee.

Casval_Rouge Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I know it is cliche, but come on, just give him Force Lightning already. When you have the power to control lightning, it just has to be part of the fantasy, along with lightning storms, teleporting, and lightning bolts.

(PSN)robotwars7 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 well we all know his 4 is lacklustre, especially for a frame that's supposed to be all about electricity, a very powerful element. I'm sure whatever he gets will be an improvement on overload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurpgork Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 They will touch his 1 as well, it will be toggleable, but you wont be able to sprint or use weapons.Considering that right now casting Shock doesn't even interrupt reloading, and how almost universally hated Spectral Scream and Petrify are, I have a hard time seeing this as anything but a downgrade.

Kotsender_Quasimir Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Bringing Volt to Excals level... why can't i help but read "dumbing down to..." :I. Mag does indeed need changes to make her more viable across all factions and "kill corpus button" shouldn't be a thing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadwire Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Alternatively to gun play.... Got useless ultimate power First power less damage only stun need gun to finish the job Need gun to shoot trough epic shield DE logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrVonTuckIII Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I don't think a toggleable 1 would be fair, but I can imagine a charge mechanic, where tapping would release the current Shock, a one-handed action, whereas charging for 1 second or so would perform a two-handed, higher damage, and longer stun Shock. I want that. And an ultimate with Lightning Strikes. Mag is ok, but apart from Shield Polarize, no one really uses her ablities. Pull is ok, Bullet Attractor is only good in PvP (which no-one plays) and Crush is more or less useless at high levels. I can get behind a rework.
