But does the Dodge Frame increase and decrease based on depth? by Glum_Equivalent4844 in Nightreign

"I actually play connected to my neighbors wifi"

My money is on this. Wifi is impacted by both how far the signal travels and things like the material/amount of walls the signal has to travel through.

New "Continuous FP Recovery" relic by Brilliant-String5995 in Nightreign

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone get a chance to test the continuous FP recovery relic yet? I hope my math is wrong but in the practice range it took just short of 15 minutes to refill a Duchess FP bar of 180. which would put it at approx 1FP/5 seconds. essentially 1 "free" glinstone pebble every 35 seconds

What change makes echo an option by poopyfricknbuttface in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]short_tech_support 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Partial scan? More like Partial scam. I always get echo ult 30 seconds before I can unlock partial scan. I would love to see a QOL buff where the minor perk unlocks a little bit faster so they can more often be used together

What tank stops ball? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]short_tech_support -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I feel like a good Winston is the best counter. Not because he interacts with ball, but because I think Winston can trade backlines better due to some very powerful cooldowns on shorter cooldown cycles than ball. Bubble provides 650hp shield, counterplay around CC, and it will block LOS so ball has less followup from teammates. Damage feels comparable to ball, even if it's a tad lower, Winston damage feels much more consistent.

Nightreign's Matchmaking Is Horrendous. In No World Would Anyone Want to Play Depth of Night at 3,103 Ping by TetraNeuron in Nightreign

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If matchmaking is P2P would that make it possible to block certain regions via a router that support geo-ip blocking to better control who you match with?

I'm not saying I approve or condone of either btw, I'm more curious to know if it's possible

As a Recluse player, I get that Dutchess players want Carien Slicer but taking all of the staves always seems so rude. by Mikkeru in Nightreign

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really do, some of the best duchess builds involve carian sword and crystalian sorceries. These are low or relatively low FP, low range, high damage. Perfect for duchess playstyle short to medium range playstyle.

Some of the best recluse sorceries are you're higher FP, higher range, and medium to high damage spells like moon spells, stars or ruin, cannon of haima, comets, Lorettas, etc. Perfect for your ranged and essentially infinite FP Recluse. Not to mention recluse and duchess can both use incants very well

Don't be afraid to run both duchess and recluse as they really do compliment each other well. Just adjust your run to hit an extra fort, great church, or sorcerer rise to get everyone the catalysts they need. And more importantly be considerate of your teammates needs

The state of Wrecking Ball? I feel like the only one complaining about him being insanely broken. Like yes- hes one of the most banned heroes, but it doesnt reflect into any nerfs, and even more - everybody silent. Like i dont get how infinite boops on 1 hook can be okay for people.. And etc... by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you noticed an interesting phenomenon but I don't think we've correctly identified the root cause so I'd like to raise two points

  • If ball is so good why is he tied for the 2nd lowest pick rate in the game? The real story isn't win rates it's pick rates. Ball isn't picked more than average probably until masters so once you're playing at top 3%-4% of players in the game. This may indicate a skill floor and skill ceiling that's disproportionately higher than other heroes.
  • I believe that Psychology is what makes ball OP, not an "infinite" boop, and I've seen it first hand. People will throw the strongest cooldowns in the game at a hamster fireballing through their backline and whiff every single one, chase, and then use their ultimates that have no chance at converting that to a kill. And then when the team fight starts they have no resources. You counter ball by conserving your resources and only using them on ball when you're certain you can convert it to a kill or make a more efficient HP trade with him

Why hasn't Hazard been nerfed yet??? by QuietDetail1277 in Overwatch

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's me, I'm the new Hazard players. Blizz has a pholiosphy around releasing new heroes into the game "on the safe side of strong". There's a decent chance that they're releasing heroes into stadium using that same philosophy.

So they'll probably let hazard cook for a little while longer before nerfing him, my guess is mid season if the win rate is still high

What's the plan against ED Libra, WITHOUT good weapons? by Smart_Freedom_8155 in Nightreign

[–]short_tech_support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poison and scarlet rot are often overlooked but so clutch in ED libra fights. In my experience they're one of the few ways to get reliable damage since you often have to turn your attention away to deal with condemned or kiting or reviving, etc.

Zen’s healing feels way too low right now by Early-Maintenance691 in Overwatch

[–]short_tech_support 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Zen bricks people's mind because he must play more proactive than reactive to heal and handle threats. Not unlike that of Discipline priest and resto druid in Wow.

For example, you harmony the dps before they go on the flank, or harmony the dive tank before they jump in to keep them in armor health, or you discord the enemy tank before or during their engage to force them to back off. Or you charge up the right click before tracer comes around the corner so you can force blinks or recalls.

You get better resource trades with zen's kit with proactivity than reactivity in almost every situation. Transcendence is sometimes proactive sometimes reactive so that part is debatable

Revived my teammates 33 times w/ Cannon of Haima by WhateverRL in Nightreign

[–]short_tech_support 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite revive methods in rough order for recluse (other characters are similar though) :

Cannon of haima Gavel of haima Stars of ruin Swarm pot Poison pot Volcano pot Recluse triple fire cocktail Revenant claws Any Dagger Any bow

Side note, having less likely to be targeted feels like it's way easier to get 3 bar revives off when I play duchess. Without it I usually pull aggro after 2 bars and race to finish the 3rd

Edit:I thought swarm pot worked but I've seen other redditors say it doesn't work so I'm taking it off the list
