My boy poison getting the most random nerf in history
I don’t even understand why it’s necessary considering 0.85x modifier already is quite crippling.
I guess 0.825x isn’t the biggest of nerfs, but it feels so random and I don’t even understand what they were talking about with “extra damage” considering either way the base damage is worsened upon imbue.
The “extra damage” refers to the fact that poison’s imbue was buffed by 0.025 (from 0.825 to 0.85) before we realized how good the dot refresh changes were. Poison conjurer also suffers from a bug where if you have two dots active all your synergies get halved, so once that’s fixed poison will stay around the same as it currently is.
TL:DR Poison imbue will stay the same on conj, ileg, and thermo after bugs are fixed
your magic takes ZERO skill to use, you serve ZERO purpose in the meta other than to make turret mage even more annoying, you should reset character file NOW!!!
That’d have to go to Plasma with it’s .775 Impact dmg back in WoM.
Which is funny cause it was meta back then, with WoM’s lvl 60 cap. Until the dmg formula correction came in with the fishing update.
Light was around .825, and a lot of us were mostly pushing the Self Synergy proposal prior to it’s current self. Then Self Synergy happened, alongside with it’s buff to .85 impact dmg.
Ever since it went from 0.825 to 0.85 on top of it’s Self Synergy. The, “Light having low dmg” excuse went out the window. Even accounting the Self Synergy nerf, Light can still hit hard.
If you have Max Blind stacks and have Crystalized, light can have an impact dmg of ~0.9775 if my math is right.
Ok I just realised my mistake
I got the “light does the lowest damage” thing from Meta’s document back in WoM that factored in status effects. It was never the base damage that was the lowest, it was the overall
As someone currently maining poison conj I don’t think you understand how badly this nerf was needed
The raw damage from poison Conjurer is insane.
My dot completely stops regen and for 5 seconds does about 30 total damage a tick.
Especially with how musket has infinite clash and is easy as shit to hit, you can see why this is a problem.
