Suspect Discussion General Thread

[Sparton_LOTB]

The purpose of this thread is to propose characters you think warrant a review which don’t already have a suspect discussion thread of their own.

Feel free to support (or counter) the proposals of others you agree or disagree with, but as per usual, keep it civil.

Sentinel corrupt droid seems that is doing true damage because of the white numbers when attacks, but in the description of the skill says that it does physical damage. Or the description is wrong or the damage type is wrong.

Well every stats point to true damage like Sentinel soulless deamon 😁
True that it says physical thought..
Hope he stays that way, it's a beast!

Mummy Eddie
What It was Designed For
A middle tanky character which helps mitigates damage for his team with his future ability, dealing AOE magic damage with a good chance to taunt enemies. Also can clear debuffs(2 turns), his basic ability stunts one enemy, and

What We Got?
The most used Eddie on PVP, easily founded on 7 out of 10 teams, this thanks to his future ability "Burden of the Damned" wich deals AOE damage and triggers pretty often talisman effects(stun, blind, freeze, etc) AND TAUNT.

Why This is a Problem?
His high HP plus the mentioned future ability with taunt and surprisingly high effect triggering, makes Mummy Eddie the most used Eddie on PVP by far.
Enemy teams can't even play when the TAUNT is triggered of any of the other effects that any talisman can bring. This plus his Titan Shield and party debuff makes him very OP for PVP.

What We Could Consider Changing
Reduce TAUNT % and FIX effect triggering % on BOTD ability.
Make him use the default basic ability often, as it supposed to be, like all other chars in game.


Sparton, if you think that this is OK, good for you. I say that is boring to fight over and over again the same Eddie on 7 out of 10 PVP teams.
For players who doesn't have a char with "Immunity" passive, is almost impossible to beat a team with this Eddie, because of the TAUNT and broke effect triggering.
If you dont want to fix this YET, or if you find that there's nothing to fix and everything goes just perfect(Like in many other matters), go on, is up to you, I have a Hellhound, and have patience to keep on goin' with the game and all this mess...

For SAG, yes man open your eyes, you are actually exploiting one of the many broken mechanics the game has, just like me with the Gunner GS and Freezing Talis, the difference is that I am aware of it.

I actually removed my DM/Golden Son team for that exact reason...
Never in mummy's ability it's written to trigger on perfect for taunt, as for souless demon or corrupt general, it 'happend" and as already said if other Eddie's where acting half as good as that one there would be way more variety, I'm bored to see him too but he's an example to follow more than anything else, storm eddy never use his basic move either and nobody cares because he's dumb, to me we should raise the bar not lower it..

Description says: "45% chance to taunt for 1 turn"...

I´m just going to answer on this topic.

Nerfing all these toons being considered? REALLY??!?

Lets fix the broken mechanics, the imbalance between classes, AI only playing one or two Eddies reasonably, an then consider VERY SUBTLE nerfing.

I´m actually in favor of nerfing as a last resort, but only if everybody could rearrange the skills shards after every patch/update.

People invested in these characters, some i guess even with real money. Not fair at all!!!

No nerfing, let´s fix the basic macro problems first!!!

For the most part I agree with this. Many of us face all of these toons day in and day out and do fine.

I said for the most part because AoF is overpowered. And I have one. I'd love for it not to be nerfed - but its power is just too damn obvious.

Interestingly no ones brought up what I believe to be one of the most overpowered characters in the game -Grim Reaper Eddie. A 30% chance to retrigger and wreak havoc, wiping out one - and sometimes two - characters in one hit is very AoF-like. Then add in he can heal block. Freeze entire parties while healing himself, often with an extra turn. Revive dead characters.

And the Mummy is almost as good as a CG if you slap on some Freeze Talismans. It's why he's all over the place. But no ones mentioned GRE and other than Demoonchild Mummy wasn't mentioned either.

I have to admit I was surprised Sentinel Corrupt Droid, Troll, and Sentinel Souless Demon were on the list while the two Eddies I've mentioned aren't. And honestly - I don't want ANY of these characters nerfed, including the Eddies I've mentioned. Many of us face them all the time and do fine. Other than AoF, nothing listed in the individual threads as a concern is jumping out at me. But that's just me.

I have to say I appreciate that you're even having this dialogue instead of just making an announcement. Very cool that you're doing that.

100% This!!! Give us the ability to move skill shards around. When you nerf a talisman we have the choice to remove it altogether and then spend time and resources on a different talisman. But when you nerf a character we should have the same options. This NEEDS to be implemented!!!
