Endorphinz Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) I have a simple suggestion for nullifiers. People won't argue that having to constantly recast your buff abilities is annoying and a waste of time, some more than others (Inaros in particular takes a lot of pain for having his armor dispelled). It wouldn't be too hard to leave the abilities alone, but have them suppressed when inside a nullifier field. Whenever a player is removed from the orb's influence, the buffs and abilities should resume their normal effects, for whatever remaining duration is left. Example: Rhino runs into a nullifier bubble to kick the guy in the $&*^. His iron skin, which had 50% remaining durability, comes off, and he can't cast any further abilities while inside the bubble, until he kills the nullifier. As soon as the bubble is gone, Rhino's iron skin comes back up, with the same 50% power as before. Of course, all other attack abilities act the same way around nullifiers. Simple, and a lot less annoying to have to keep on recasting essential survival abilities when forced to fight these enemies.

Krion112 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I'd actually be quite fine if it stopped the countdown, and removed the buffs or effects until you exited the bubble, rather than just outright punishing a player. For a moment there, I thought you were going to argue it shouldn't remove buffs at all, which was going to get the opposite response from me...

TARINunit9 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I have made this suggestion before. 100% agree, I pray that DE is finally done buffing Nullies and is ready to start making them less absolutely terrible design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much this , it can be really annoying especially when they land on your head or spawn on top of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinKenshin Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 when you have muddy hands and you put them in water, the mud doesn't come back once your hands are out of the water it doesn't makes much sense >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, this is about fun, who cares if it doesn't make sense. Nullifier bubbles don't make sense to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything id expect if i converted energy into raw material such as iron (Iron skin) i dont see why an energy nullifier would should disintegrate it when it doesnt affect any other metals. Then again i dont want to advocate nullifiers shuold or shouldn't remove buffs so ill just leave this as it is .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)hxvxn- Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I dont see a problem with them, sure during sorties they pose a threat, but l mean, really, they are not that strong, and as far as i know, a level 10 nullifier shield is just as strong as a level 100. Nullifiers add balance to the extremely power ability at our disposal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorfirebox Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I think nullies should be split into two enemies. One cancels active powers, the other prevents abilities from being cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaotea Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 All i want for nullifiers is to split them into 2 units. One blocks bullets but doesnt stop powers, the other blocks powers but not bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesyol Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 That's a nice idea. Or we could at least get energy back if we get debuffed. Like Inaros gets health back if his 4 is removed. I didn't care much about nullifires before, but now with fissure it gets rather stupid when they are raining down on you and you can't even evade them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the principle is good but I think it would be waaaay too confusing in practice. 15 minutes ago, chaotea said: All i want for nullifiers is to split them into 2 units. One blocks bullets but doesnt stop powers, the other blocks powers but not bullets. This is more do-able. Maybe different coloured shields. However I prefer the original idea of it pausing powers in the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combas and Scrambus both cancel active powers and prevent abilities from being cast, but they're limited to certain classes of powers. I'm talking about one enemy that cancels active powers (you can recast, but it will be cancelled again within a few seconds) and one that prevents powers from being cast (but already-active powers aren't affected).

GTX49 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I dont get the nullifiers now.. They were supposed to be a way to halt down the "Press 4 To Win" abilities, but with the recent reworks for these skills to not become P4TW, there is no need for nullifiers now..

Endorphinz Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 My assumption is that they're not going to remove nullifiers anytime soon. So the best we can hope for is some quality of life tweaks maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)KaMuS0413 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) i think is a great suggestion and will balance the nulifer and people wouldnt feel so annoy about them.
