im not gonna bother complaining since i bet people get enough of that already with lightning. Anyway i just wanted to ask a question. is lightning the next one to be revamped? i think it is but traversing these forums to look for answers is harder then i thought. also would you consider lightning heal to be even acceptable. one of my first and favorite characters was lightning....but dps wise it was just so lackluster compared to pretty much everything. How would they buff lightning. honest question.
the next thing to get revamped will be everything. They are gonna remove the huge boosts from AM/WM and rework how SP work. all powers should be on par after said update (of course they wont be) but who knows maybe electric will be the strongest power Here's the link to thread / livestream https://forums.daybreakgames.com/dcuo/index.php?threads/development-update-the-stats-revamp.279505/
It's at the bottom of the barrel for both roles, but it's healer is actually quite effective unlike the Dps side. Also no, were getting a full stats revamp before they update anymore powers individually.
DPS is woefully underperforming as we all know. Healer side is fine Jeazy answered the time frame , but I'll add that uses they change it to burst it will still underperform
As everyone has said, no updates for electric. Removing AMs is basically the update. Healing is fine for the most part. I used to have the elite type C mod when I healed and could spam bio surge without losing any power on PoT ticks. I'm not sure how effective it is without the type C mod. As long as everyone is bio charged electric healing is easy.
thats amazing. i kinda silently stopped playing this game due to problems that there fixing in this update. removing power points definitely interests me. i would always kill myself trying to find a way to make a hybrid character(not using the armory). i honestly do hope that they get all powers to at least do standard damage.
Electric Healing is fine unless you decide to play in Elite Content, well most Elite Content is OK since not every Elite raid released is difficult. Can't assess the difficulty of a raid until it's out or you play it on test.
The plans for the devs are not to revamp electric basically getting rid of the am should put electric on an even playing field with the other powers again
i feel like that isnt fair. while this update is amazing just toning everything else down to compare to the lower tiers is kinda lazy. nature and lihtning need more then just then just having the am being taken from everything else.
Thier were other reasons for it as well. The community for a while has resented the limited cookie cutter load outs players found it very limiting and the excessive damage was always causing bugs. By removing the AMs and wm bonus damage it also lessens he damage gap between dps and supports. So that in theory roles and dps will have more variety on how to run and what to run and to create more balanced raid groups.
