“I've been seeing a lot of this power sucks and this power might be to good or only these powers are good stuff so i just wanna take a few minutes and lay some things out from my pov having played everything on test.

So the first topic that i see a lot is Hybrid vs Pftt. People say hybrid stinks, not true some powers play very well with weapons and some don't, some play better might based in hybrid/supercharged and some play better in Weapons Expert with a full precision build. Its uo to you to figure out what spec fits your power best. Another thing that will dictate how good your results are with hybrid is your skill points, obviously the more you have the better you will do cause you can spec more points into the other stat after you max out your main stat.

Next thing is where people are comparing powers. Most groups run JFA and you don't see the big picture only running one raid thats extremely easy and where you can melee everything. Some powers are obviously better then others melee and thats what most people are clinging to right now and saying these are the only good powers. If you turn the tables and run something more difficult like US with all the bosses up where you have to play more range you will see different powers taking the lead.

Some powers are better in other areas then others and just cause something is great in JFA doesn't mean its going to do that well in something else. For example everyone is flocking to electric and while its good for JFA its not that hot in US with all the bosses up compared to some powers that people haven't even given a chance yet, also while its good on adds its not to good on single target. Same with earth, if the guy can jackhammer hes golden but if he has to range he's not gonna do to well.

Most powers seem to have a situational place where they shine and i think thats pretty cool, Power A might be great on adds and beat power B in that situation but then power A isn't to hot on the boss and thats where power B shines. Same thing with range vs mid-range and melee.

People haven't even figured out the best specs for everything yet or even tried everything cause they are to busy jumping to whatever someone says is good instead of trying to figure out how to make another power good.

Anyway its super early and i think its kinda silly for people to have made such solid judgements on whats the best and whats not especially judging stuff in jfa mostly. Run USe or US reg with all the bosses up and you'll def see a shift in powers. Also wait till new content comes out, elite stuff, situations where you have to range or SM those things will change the meta of what powers people think are top powers. Give it some time the revamp hasn't even been out a month yet and people still have a lot to figure out.”

great post

Ok so noticed this tonight, alcuberrie wave is supposed to throw enemies behind u in front of u. So im out doing dailies in TT area 51 and i have 2 adds directly in front of me. I do solar flare clip with alcuberrie wave and it throws those adds in front of me even farther away from me and the dmg hit doesnt register because its a mid range power.

I have a pftt armory i tested this with too and the same thing happened. This is definitely broken. Any other quantum users out there try this out and see what happens please.

As a fire DPS, i REFUSE to use Fireburst or Mass Det. in my loadout post revamp. Why? because for a long time, our AM was basically use spamming the same move over and over again.We didn't even have a 1234 rotation to break it up! You guys are acting like you suffered oh so much from boredom. Well, fire and Ice had it rough!

I do just dandy in dmg post revamp. Loving this revamp. Fire feels like it did when I first started playing it 6 years ago.

“Interesting read.”

Nova, Renzhe here, one of the earlier forum posters on your Nova Sorcery Guide thread when it was moved from PS3 forum to the new forum.

“I go away for 18 months and I'm not sure what changed more, the game or CrappyHeals. ”

I'm just more shocked that he managed to still be here when we've been gone for like 2 years.
