EclecticDragon Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 The changes to speed are exactly what I was hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PositronicSpleen Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Speed was the ability that needed a buff the least, but I won't argue. It was and remains his best ability (except Overload against Corpus, I guess). I am absolutely stunned Electric Shield is untouched. It still does nothing against Infested, still does crazy things to bullets passing through, and is still worthless as actual defense because cover is plentiful and it is tiny. Did this update remove ancients' invulnerability to electricity? I think that would be the most important change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJtheGuyisHeRe Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 finally now volt will actually be more usefull on Xini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilybun Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 The lack of animation on overload is a bit confusing. Maybe he should at least wave his arms around or something to get the point across if you want to keep him mobile during the cast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OOLuigiOo Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) So you nerfed the speed of speed, could you atleast buff his default speed, he really feels slow even with max Rush. And plasma bullets cannot pass through his shield. Doesn't even feel faster than Loki anymore. Edited July 5, 2013 by OOLuigiOo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried it and it's still not working. This was the change I was most excited for too. Edited July 5, 2013 by Excitonex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozey750 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Miss the animation to overload and my sheild seems to not be working properly either... It blocks all bullets no matter which direction I shoot through, but my bow can still pass through. Other than that I am loving the changes!

vSabre Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Well I'm back and I have to say loving the new energy skill colours (I use red). -Shock is awesome now but when it "chains" the colour is still the old default colour. -Didn't really play around much with the shield tho it looks cool in red. -Overload needs a really short animation its good but feels like its missing something. But....Speed....I use maxed out rush on Volt and using Speed BARELY feels like I'm gaining anything at all, Loki and Ash can now out run me, walking with the skill active is normal speed, using maxed Fury I don't notice a speed increase ....noooo.... I'm sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffFromAccounting Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) 1 Shock= 4-5 peeps dead, loving it!! still would buff Speed a little bit so Tenno can move a bit faster when Volt casts Speed as it feels rather slugish now, probably because I'm used to going at HYPERSPEED but yeah, pwease? EDIT: Shock appears to target inactive Corpus Turrets, and not chain to anything else, however on Grineer maps the chain works perfectly...

OOLuigiOo Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Swing needs more speed. Default speed is too slow. Running with speed is now as slow as the speed force in DC Universe. not good. And this is not DC Universe. Edited July 5, 2013 by OOLuigiOo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I could hang back do a bit of locker looting if I wanted to then HYPERSPEED lol to catch back up. Now its lacking that kind of adrenaline buzz when running super speed like Luigi said feels like we are weighed down. Idk maybe remove the melee speed buff (not that I could even notice it), reduce the AOE a bit and BUFFFF dat speed. The rework I was hoping for on Speed was a stamina drain reduction but pretty much leave it as it was. *EDIT* instead maybe change Speed back to default but keep the AOE melee increase and add a little stamina cost reduction.

Kaitensatsuma Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Shock still seems to need a little work in the damage department, but I suppose with Overload reworked it can be overlooked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excitonex Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I like the change to speed because now everyone can be annoyed at the FOV change. Also, the shield definitely does not work still. I really really wanted that change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrizzieCostanzie Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I never had a Volt and I'm absolutely making him now that he has melee attack speed buff. I'm a melee person so I'm loving this new update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellishWind Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Chain lightning needs a buff it does 00000000 dmmg on ancients when past lv 35 thats like wave 10 on xini ? also does Roar stack in Power dmmg ?

Erzachan Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Aside from my shield not letting through my bullets either, I had another problem. After every Overload I used I got stuck in "Power in use". The very first time only revive solved it. After I knew that Overload caused it I checked if it was one time only or persistent. Used Overload, got "Power in use" , but after a few seconds of power spamming it worked again. It might be that without the animation of Overload I want to use another power before Overload finishes and it really was just the first time it got stuck, or there is something wrong with it. I love the Shock change, it is so much better now. And I'm with the other Tennos who think that the base speed should be faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunninja Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Love the changes, only thing I miss is the old Overload animation. Would love it if when you stood still it would play the animation and then not if your moving, but I'm sure that would be too difficult and have a lot of bugs. Edit: hotfix added animation back in yay! there are some bugs though animation if affected by continuity also electric shield is completely bugged no bullets will go through.

If the base speed was boosted to 1.4-1.8 it would feel much closer to Volt's previous speed I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlyBoots Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 shield still blocks all bullets (when you're a client). no animation on overload is somewhat confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rework I was hoping for on Speed was a stamina drain reduction but pretty much leave it as it was. Swing speed boost wasn't why it was slowed down, it was missing the coop feeling, so they made speed slow but its too slow and sluggish, would prefer to be fast and have the others be almost as fast or as fast. As long as Volt sticks around, there won't be an issue with coop. Volt has to stop to kill right. There's you coop. No need to remove swing speed buff, make it faster.

They didn't break anything. It never worked when you weren't host. I polarized volt twice in anticipation of his shield getting fixed in this update. I'm hoping it'll get hotfixed before the weekend.
