|~ICE~|SpecterFreak 0 Posted July 14, 2017 I purchased her as she was the only viable way to build in c7 without getting stomped constantly, now with her nerf coming out, I don't even know why i bought her.If the nerf is going to hit her as hard as they are making it out to be (shes useless) than I personally feel ripped off and am willing to give her up as a hero for my money back, this is literally a kick in the teeth to people who paid money for her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lekkin007 0 Posted July 15, 2017 EV2 will still be perfectly viable. Her WM was never the best tower in the game, it was just the best for farming. Heck, her proton beam is better for damage if you learn where and how to place it, especially since it scales so amazingly with upgrades. The WM will still be great for farming, even with a minor debuff, because of how quickly they can be packed. It might be slightly less viable when climbing the ranks, but there are currently better free methods, and many of those are even getting buffed. The amount of power you have access too will not go down. All you have to do is watch video after video of other players in C7 to see that EV2 is not even needed for C7 now. People use her to be lazy. Don't get me wrong, I use EV2 now, and she is great and strong, and it's great to be lazy, but Trendy is trying to encourage variety and keep the game from getting monotonous. I say good for Trendy. Finally, let's realize that we don't actually have hard numbers yet, just a promise from Trendy (in the dev stream) that WM will still be viable, and its nerf is comparatively small compared to the buff other towers are getting. How about we wait and see what Trendy has in mind for balancing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way OP and other poster indicated (and you didn't deny it, either) she is mandatory for C7. If she is actually required for C7 then OP may have a viable point. The content shouldn't be hard locked behind a mandatory purchase and if that was their bait to get people to buy her then nerf her the company is in the wrong (shady stuff is not something new to Trendy sadly but may not apply to this situation so feel free to correct the claim she is mandatory for C7 if untrue).

She is not at all mandatory. You could use PDT's, Earthshatter towers, flamethrower towers, and more for C7. Her weapon manufactures are just really strong and make things easier. They're not needed though to pass C7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only using WM, no AA even, you can speed build and speed run 4 party c7, using any other towers besides WM you have around a 50% success rate with a full end c7 gear party, its stupid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dreizehn 7 Posted July 15, 2017 I somehow understand the frustration because the game has already been released and a character that has been released for quite a while is not expected to be rebalanced. There are dev logs, messages etc. from the devs/community managers that there will still be a lot of rebalances though....and as some other people have already stated: she is still great - it is just not as easy anymore and I think the most difficult part about this is that you are forced to change a strategy you're already used to.Personally I'm glad there are still rebalances on heroes when necessary.Maybe TE will be able to avoid this kind of confusion/customer frustration be make proper balance of purchasable content a priority.

Hopefully with upgrade tiers so you can't just put it down and forget about it.I think if they also made it only hit ground units it would be in good spot. As it has no visual representation of actually being some sort of aura, it would make sense for it to only work on ground units like the fissures from lavamancer.(Which is stronger than FA vs ground units). If they buff fissures in this patch, they will be ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chappyy 2 Posted July 15, 2017 I mean I read the patch preview post and I didn't see anything in there about a nerf to WM. What I did read is a fix for an exploit with a shard that goes in the WM. I might have missed something but I didn't see any change to the damage that it will output, unless you count the extra damage you can get if you are using the exploit.

Time to dust off the brain and use it to figure out a new build. There are many ways to still use just EV2 to win, but it's not necessary and it never was.

Flame auras + WM is better than WM, so of course you have as much success if not more. I've seen plenty of flame aura only runs for C7 too. Are flame auras really not good enough in your experience? I have also heard people claim that a full c7 gear party can do it without any towers, since the DPS you can do at that point is ridiculous. The only other thing I would add is that if the current hardest difficulty is hard (that is, C7 with four people so that the mobs have the most health), that doesn't seem like a flaw to me. I would guess that soloing C7 can be done with much more success? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The huntress 0 Posted July 15, 2017 Don't worry. WM wasn't even her best tower, it was proton beam if you knew how to use it. And also, I don't think you CAN get a refund, so don't bother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
