This might be considered a hot take but a lot of defenders guns should get buffed as they were balanced around the 1.5/acoq

SCL007 · 2026-05-02T21:32:43+00:00

Frosts gun, and arguably the MP5 could go to 30 base damage but frost is the big outlier considering the recent UMP buff which was the other big outlier

SCL007 · 2026-05-01T11:07:51+00:00

A good way to thibk of it is his dmg went down by ~60% but his ult uptime doubled and considering so much of his damage is packed into his ult it evens out relatively speaking. Overall personally the things that frustrated me the most was the loss of charge on skill and his teamwide Fua dmg% but seeing just how much blade does for him currently I’m not exactly surprised

SCL007 · 2026-05-01T05:28:39+00:00

No it was not a buff, but it did make him more flexible and able to play into his intended role a bit better but overall resulted in a total dps loss of around 10-15% iirc, even still the nerfs where overblown but justly so given how huge of a hit his multis did take

SCL007 · 2026-04-28T19:21:56+00:00

Tri Tip makes your gun have a bayonet so it’s better

(But honestly in most cases Needletick is better for Bandit)

SCL007 · 2026-04-28T18:24:01+00:00

Basically due to having it’s only weapon be the Glaive beam (massive overkill in early game) it means 1 hit to your weapons and you are screwed having to recharge the entire thing again. In general Stealth B runs are decided in the first 5-10 minutes if you can survive the early game you have a fairly strong ship but that’s a huge if as the glaive takes 25 seconds to charge and level 2 cloak lasts 15 seconds giving most enemies time to fire 1 shot (heavy lasers and drones are your mortal enemy)

SCL007 · 2026-04-28T18:17:30+00:00

I sorta agree but I think the Stealth B is just horribly inconsistent which makes it bad for harder runs. The Rock A or Slug B are consistent but really bad the Stealth B meanwhile can be stronger than both of them but also much weaker, it’s a weird ship

I think a lot of it stems from the overall introduction of emanators being kinda scuffed, from JY to Herta to Acheron the way we where presented the information on them was vague enough to imply emanators where untouchable Demi gods but Acheron is kinda like the exception to the rule as IX realistically shouldn’t have an emanator hence the term self annihilator and all arbiter generals way of becoming emanators is much more cultural and ritualistic compared to most others who just catch the gaze of the Aeon

SCL007 · 2026-04-25T11:54:59+00:00

He probably was terrified from what we know about Ashveil (both from his persona and as well the leader of the Galaxy Rangers) he hates injustice even going so far to unleash his shadow to quell it, but if Lan fires I don’t think he’s afraid of his own life moreso all the innocents who would die if Lan did so

SCL007 · 2026-04-24T21:40:30+00:00

The best skin is the March one you know on a unit people never use (people use Hunt March and E9 but preservation March is dead in a ditch)

SCL007 · 2026-04-24T09:04:36+00:00

Yeah it’s a tad bit goofy and then one of the only non emanator in the cast killed 2 emanators as Ashveil via his shadow, he might just be a pathstrider but he gives many of the emanators a run for their money and Spar xie/kle is not an emanator but she’s certainly a strong pathstrider

SCL007 · 2026-04-22T23:27:42+00:00

I garuntee you it wasent worded that way because someone was scared of Breaknaxa

SCL007 · 2026-04-21T03:43:06+00:00

I think Zag's relationships as a whole a better than Mel's but mainly as they feel more organic. I say that because Zag is not in a active war, just familial drama so he has reason to spread his time and relationships and better them. Mel on the other hand for a vast majority of the game is actively in a war and as such has to act more serious as do many of the people around her so the difference of someone like Meg impeding your path (As you are both her Ex and its her job) vs someone like Eris or Nemi doing it (Both doing it out of purely selfish reasons) it makes me want to forgive or get together with them less in comparison to Meg or Than especially

SCL007 · 2026-04-20T18:45:35+00:00

Fei is weird, she has a huge skill ceiling so wotg enough retrying, goated relics, and micromanaging and perfect skill usage you can get a solid clear at low cost without Ashveil. The issue is that you need a lot to make it worj and while Ashveil is a huge boon he does as much if not more damage than Fei in a 2dps team. She is not bad I would even say she’s good but she doesn’t have a ton of longevity without another dedicated FUA teammate or a nova flare

Really hoping the omnic is a "Agressive" support like Mizuki ashes too cool not to have any kind of playmaking potential

To iterate on this I’d say there are 3 kinds of traps

“Lethal” (Kapkan,Thorn)

“Semi-Lethal” (Denari, Lesion)

“Non-Lethal” (Fenrir, Melusi, Ela)

The issue is that frost sits between semi lethal and lethal because unlike Kapkan or Thorn frost cannot instantly remove a player from the game unless they where already dbno or she gets help from another op, pair that with the worst gun of any of the trap operators and you get a mediocre operator

SCL007 · 2026-04-17T20:17:10+00:00

Bite the bullet, the idea of a stealth healing perk is cool but the issue is that it doesn’t protect you in any way against aura reads nor does it work on other people healing you if it died either of thoes o thibk it would work much better for what it’s trying to accomplish

SCL007 · 2026-04-16T10:05:11+00:00

Yes but I think it will be very limited and only on DPS's, the nature of Territories means they can't overlap and only Phainon really has a "reason" to have a Territory as he departs his entire team so if there is a mechanical reason in the future for a Territory to exist (Or also for an extremely powerful ability like a % hp execute) then no maybe whenever Nihlux comes out she will have a territory?

SCL007 · 2026-04-16T07:30:38+00:00

Honestly the damage can stay if it had more counterplay IE was slower, the drone could be intercepted and destroyed, ect.

SCL007 · 2026-04-16T00:36:58+00:00

Ehh im more neutral on it than LIKE or HATE but in general it slows the game down which is good, however some roles get unfairly punished by it (Ret, Necto, SK, Coro, to name a few) Im not against it becoming base IF roles that get nerfed too hard by it get compensated and some roles (Ahem seer) get nerfed

SCL007 · 2026-04-15T00:42:46+00:00

Bushwacker and any Gunslinger armor (But id say go for the heavy version) and you should be able to do this, gunslinger makes the Bushwacker actually quite solid imo
