Attn: Devs (Quantum's Time Bomb)

Wait, you're losing 6k dps on a 2nd rotation? As in you parse at 10-12k dps and then shoot down to 4-6k dps? Or you are saying you lose 6k damage TOTAL which is barely a 200 dps difference which is just RNG on crits.

Now you gotta do that for the other 13 powers

I hate to tell u but while that may look decent rage does much better

Well that would be a problem if that was actually max damage, but it isn't. I held back because I only had 1 troll. And i'm not having this argument over mid range vs. melee damage again.

I mean i like your loadout however are u using the most prolific burst moves so time hits at max

Time bomb hits at max, but there are two moves I could swap/rearrange for more damage on an individual basis. When I originally tested it and had it set to 10s parses I was sitting at 14-14.5k before I ran out of power when I had 17.6k might I think it was. Quantum PftT has a huge damage window because of the ability spam factor. Switching 1 move can move you 500-1000 dps.

This loadout cant function in a normal raid in your opinion?

Now let's try to get good numbers without the pocket controllers. The issues that are being discussed are damage issues without a couple pocket controllers dumping power so that someone can get unrealistic numbers using all 300 powers.

Depends on how you define a normal raid.
1 troll = no, not without struggling.
2 vit trolls = yes, but prob still struggling.
2 pow trolls = I could prob do the rotation that would be in the 13 pushing 14's.

HL (used to be Atomic as well) has the same problem. It can't reach max potential without 2 good trolls or 3 pug one's. You put a HL dps with 1 troll in a single target situation, he'll get smashed prob. You give a HL dps 3 trolls for a dps comp in a single target situation, especially if he has a troll laying a PI for him so he can skip chompers, you about to get 3-4 mil'd easy. Especially after they fix the bug with HL dps right now. Hardest hitting move isn't even working right.

Thats an unrealistic request because you'll have at least one troll in a raid at all times. Why would you look for max potential of a power without using a troll when you always have one in a real scenario?

Duos and solos do not count either since those are meant to be beaten with any role and set up.

Power consumption isn't on the devs' list of concerns. If it was, HL wouldn't be in current state. Any other excuses before I go to sleep? I got Japanese in 8 hours and need to study before class.

Since there seems to be a reading comprehension issue on these forums im going to post 1 last time and explain what i showed earlier. This thread is about time bomb and its cap. The parses in my pics meant nothing. Because i was doing a rotation that took 6-7 seconds and was stopping.

What i showed was how quickly u can reach time bombs cap. That simply using a 100 cost ability 4 times will get u to the cap thats based off your might. And how using stronger powers, like a 300 cost ability like distortion wave, didnt matter. It doesnt matter because i can hit the TB cap by using a weaker ability multiple times. And by doing this power cost comes into play also. And to show TB isnt strong enough. That it only takes 3-4 seconds w/in the 6 second window to hit the cap. I even explained this clearly. The parse shouldnt have even been in the log. I simply forgot to remove it.

Time bomb is a burst power but takes 6 seconds to get that burst dmg and it has a 300 power cost. While an ability like distortion wave is also a 300 cost ability and is also burst but is instant and most of the time hits harder then time bomb. So what purpose is tb serving by functioning this way?

Now the reason i did this was because multiple people in other threads when talking about quantum said its fine. Use time bomb with some 300 abilities and you're good. That using more 300 cost abilities will make time bomb stronger. Not true. Not really a tough concept to understand especially when i explained what i was doing.

Also there is nothing wrong with saying pm the devs your data. I know for a fact many people have had private convos with the devs on here when it came to testing this revamp and the power sets even now. Is there something i dont know about where only certain players are allowed to pm the devs? I have no issues with someone disagreeing with my opinion or proving me wrong. What i do take issue with is the name calling, insults, and rude snarky comments that seem to plague almost every thread started about any of the power sets. I addressed no one. I simply made a statement and quoted the OP. Then later posted some pics. If anyone cannot have a constructive conversation w/out being rude then simply do not address me, thanks.

Then in the video we have a quantum test character with mental powers floating around him. I'm not sure what that is but as soon as the devs see those two mental powers on the quantum test character it should be tossed out in the trash. ASAP.

Not to mention the continual white out screen and the power bar being covered.

That's the effect from the trolls instant power dump, and you can see his rotation by just watching the animations.

That's a bot which is against TOS the last time I looked. Trying to prove points by using unrealistic variables with a bot with unknown capabilities.

If this was a science experiment in a Chemistry class this group of people would have F's for failure to follow the guidelines / parameters set within the experiment / game.

The loadout looks like gravity well, time bomb, warp barrage, time shift, anomaly, alcubierre wave.

At this point though i think people are just trying to grasp at straws to hold onto their point, seems no matter what gets done there will always be someone to pick apart everything you do.

Actually if it a Chemistry class, the professor already approved of it and said go on. Posts made in regards to feedback given by Hoiiow when he used bots for dps testing.


Funny enough, there's only one person that ever complained about using bots to power rotations.

No one has proven me wrong & TBH, I'm still waiting on TB cap % of might....... No one in your group of buddies has even attempted to answer that in your group ...................but you know Quantum.

Go ahead I'm waiting...Been waiting since yesterday.
