Mu_Gera Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Why doesn't miasma proc corrosive? Every other Saryn ability can proc their respective element 100%, except miasma. Why though? It kinda gives a sense of inconsistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misgenesis Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Good question but DE keeps ignoring it. It would be a much needed addition to it since pure damage falls off fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickshotMcGee Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I'd venture a guess that it only does Corrosive because an AoE Toxic proc would be far too strong (would be more of a nightmare to Corpus than Saryn already is) even though 2 of her other abilities do Toxic. But it doesn't proc corrosive because a guaranteed AoE Corrosive proc is also extremely strong, especially when you can spam it like crazy. Not sure on either of those points, but it's my ballpark guess and it makes sense to me balance-wise. Her guaranteed Viral procs are already strong, so it doesn't bother me too much. As nice as it would be, methinks it would be a little broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which, for what seems like the only innately corrosive ability in the game, along with saryn's theme, it's weird how it wouldn't corrode armor (besides, armor can be arguably more broken).

Well, Miasma does multiple ticks of damage per second, which would translate to multiple corrosive procs per second. 2-3 casts would strip armor entirely over a 15-meter area at every level, and if you can't see that as broken, I don't know what to say. Also, Inaros's abilities do innate corrosive damage. All of them. Just won't ever proc corrosive, as they shouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're right about Inaros, but I couldn't find anything that said his other abilities besides his 4 doing corrosive damage. But anyways, this is about miasma.
