About Press Deity release

[Jullien 0]

Does someone know if Press Deity will have delay forever or It's just a test?

[Doug 1]

Looks like the delay will be changed next patch 

[warstray 0]

I hope so  :'(

the damage is also not scaling correctly, it hardly does any more dmg than phantom call (t3) at lvl 10

Makes me wonder if they even have chance to actually test the changes they make before releasing?

It also sucks that the skill isn't like Stone Spike and Ice Meteorite where you can cast it by right clicking anywhere on screen but you have to cast it like Phantom Nail.  :-\

They are not going to remove the delay anytime sooner.

Can any GM answer why you would even wait to release this spell if it was gonna be useless?  the dmg is the same as phantom nail and it has 10 second delay, why would anyone even use this spell?

[Kim 10]

Useless skill.

 

 

Nobody will spend skill points in a delayed area attack. -.-

Delay in itself is not an issue, look at knights Lightning Sword.

then imagine lightning sword doing the same dmg of brandish, would you use it?

[venger 0]

No I just respond to the guy above that says delay AoE skill is useless, it just means it needs more dmg.

No reason for it to have delay in my opinion

[Jullien 0]

So. Is there any reason to create a shaman? Because It's almost useless, although they have good skills like the kind of distorcion and stun.

As u said, if press which is the funniest skill on shammy will still have delay there is absolutely no reason to play as shammy better keep as mage

You are right.

Delay will be made shorter (but it will still have a slight delay).

 

Damage will get boosted too.

[z0r 68]

Delay will be made slightly shorter (but it will still have delay).

 

Damage will get greatly boosted.

i think will be better w/o delay and lower damage. (by saying that will be greatly boosted)

maybe no cd with feather.

 

every class spam their aoe skills.

doesnt make sense

only ks who dont spam but LS is the best aoe skill by far.

 

@edit

 

its like mage t4

he has flamewave and meteorite

no one used flamewave.

and we wont be able skill up all t5 skills to lvl 10 for a long time and three of them is really good.

I do prefer lower the damage and keep it with no delay, it will for certain make the class way funnier to play

yep, if the staff wants to make harder try another way.

it needs to be at least fun.

[z0r 68]

I think shaman already is strong enough, I believe he tanks better than mages and if his best AoE has no delay, I can already imagine at Siege War shamans dominating. And therefore causes unbalance.

u can balance later for bc.

 

it will take a while for a 15x shaman.

just remove aoe damage or something like that.

 

he is killer at diq. if he is tanker it doesnt matter much atm.

The skill is like phantom nail, you have to choose a mob to cast it, so...

 

I was thinking. if u dont want to hit a mob, to spam in xp maps like stone spike and ice meteor, when u cast it without choosing a mob, shaman would cast the skill upon himself as the center of meteor.

Thats my ideia, it would be less boring...

Wouldn't it be better if it had no delay at all, but just a regular damage instead of delay and high dmg?

 

 

I mean, even if it have a good damage, if it have delay, people wont train it to lvl 10 because of lack of points. Players will prioritize Phantom Nail and HP Boost, and then train MANA/STM buff because Press Deity have delay...

 

 

I'm sure it would be better, in terms of gameplay and usability, if it have no delay at all, and just a regular damage! (a little higher than Phantom Nail, because it is slower...)

@Kim:

 

We'll see.

 

Regardless of Level 10 or not, I made sure that even at Level 1, after the next patch, the skill will have a lot more damage than Phantom Nail.

 

First I want to see how it plays out with a short delay and huge damage (in combination with the much faster & no delay Phantom Nail), then we'll consider other changes if necessary.
