[Design Blog] Updates to Aimed Shot

[Justg]

i want to apologise for previous rant, because i thought the change on it was permanent, and compensation was uncertain probably bc misunderstanding/communication

now i can do more damage wtihout unlucky min damage and seems more consistent high hits on pve

We get that this is a passionate issue, thanks for checking it out again and letting us know how it feels!

idk how this works..
aimed shot atm did 6.5k damage on a level 56 tank!
is it back to how it was supposed to be 7k shots?
edit..is ut tablet showing the minimum and maximum damage without the crit?
like with that 250% on a crit would land a 7.5k shot if im right!
just need to understand what u guys changed coz it seems just like before maybe even better

If you're only looking at the highest damage you're doing firing Aimed Shot, you'll see lower numbers than before. If you take the total damage you deal over a bunch of Aimed Shots, you'll see higher damage.

I think hitting for 6/7K damage on tanks is why it had to be nerfed

after this last update it still is hitting tanks 6k+

it still is doing 6k+ crits on 56 tanks.....
just not clear what fix-buff or nerf u did to it since the last to last update
it just seems better and more over powered!
Edit :just trying to understand what this fix was! tnx anyways

That fix was worth it, tbh i dont really feel anything different from before nerf till now but its fine, can you look at korruption now since aimshot issue is done?

For the example of the rogue 1, the difference between MaxBefore 3106 and MaxUpcoming 3060 is 46 and between AvBefore 2244 and AvUpcoming 2365 is 121.

This means that eventually the rogue will deal 46 damage less and on average the rogue will deal 121 more. More average damage for the character with the higher DPS.

Where is the balance? Thank you.

1 - without upgrade the Aimed mastery?
2 - The other skill will be changes?

The table is only showing certain cases , with rogues of different damages , so a rogue with higher damage can do more damage

Thank you devs!!!

The aimed seems to do more consistent damage, but I need some more time to play with it and test in many environments to see if it's any good. I fear that since we are missing our top end damage we will be even more useless in PvP when compared to the other classes, both of which have shields with considerable damage reduction to save them while still dishing out pretty good damage.

Please test before speculation. Haven't we had enough drama on this issue?

[Shadowfaux]

Pardon me for saying so but isn't it your guyses job to test it before we even see it?

Nothing is the same as a Live environment.

Omg so theyre like 1-2 lucky max dmg crit hit before the changes? *shivers

Yes, I am testing. That's why I didn't say anything bad about it yet! I'm just saying I'm fearful that'll be the case. We will see and I'll update as I get time to test.

Thanks Gary!

Okay so I tested rogue against a warrior and mage scenario and it still does not stand a chance. It was not my team either, considering that my team was compromised of the team that I use for tournaments. The strategies were solid, but nothing works to help a rogue live against a pure warrior and sorcerer team. Therefore, rogues are still an outcast in PvP unless there is a rogue on the other side.

The spike damage which gave rogues a meager chance before is gone as well. So, we need some sort of adjustment. If developers could take a look what exactly happens to a rogue against a warrior and sorcerer stack...that would be great. Essentially, all the warriors and sorcerers have to do is shield and rush the other team with a rogue in it. There is nothing the rogue can do to win. The sorcerers cannot be slowed, due to the shields, and nobody dies during the rush either because of the multiple shields and multiple heals.

did the same had the same result and told about it, not trying to make a drama but we still fall behind considerably

hey, don't forget about twinks, don't change things that are viable only for endgame cases/scenarios
