Sure. But interesting that when I suggest those same tactics myself, other posters are insistent that they shouldn’t have to rely on such things to survive at +5x8. Perhaps I am still making some sort of sacrifice 🤔

Outside of extreme examples though, the benefit is not that insane when you consider the sacrifices. I’m pretty sure most posters here would consider my zero defense glass cannons to be unplayable.

I’ve given Snarky money myself and he is still out there panhandling every day. On one hand I respect his hustle. On the other hand I think this might all be an elaborate scam >.>

How often does more than one (aka two) proc fire in an attack slotted with 6 procs? Seemingly damn near every attack, yes. Invalidating that possibility would be a respec-requiring nerf to every single character I have. And the same to any other person who plays this game with an ounce of interest in pursuing offensive performance.

You do not understand how PPM works then

If the damage of, say, Arsenal Controllers gets nerfed because y’all couldn’t handle more targeted nerfs to powers like Radiation Therapy, DNA Siphon, and Whitecap……

My Bio Tanker will probably continue to never ever die tbh.

Only like every attack

I would be absolutely shocked if you managed to prove anything since I highly doubt you figured out how to objectively weigh S/T DPS, AoE DPS, and added protection/mitigation/CC all in one metric, but feel free to link me to the post you’re talking about if you want me to verify. I’m not going to read the entire thread again just to check if you’re capable of accounting for all variables.

I assure you most of us are not going to actually wind up leaving Offensive Adaptation over these changes.

Too lazy to port stuff to test rn; is Focused Burst proc rate demolished as it is for Chain Induction?

Think some people are trying to obfuscate here like that’s going to work. Procs themselves aren’t a problem. Powers with stats that conveniently line up a little too perfectly with the PPM system are the only problem. We don’t need to throw out Controllers’ ability to do damage too just because you’re upset that Radiation Therapy is no longer a 1 second animation nuke on a short recharge. I’m normally the last person to lose my mind over common sense nerfs, but the way some of you are asking for much broader sweeping nerfs instead of targeted nerfs just because you’re bitter about the state of procs is a little crazy IMO. Be careful what you wish for. Having to respec every single character you have over one patch could still be on the table.

Controllers specifically needed to be buffed up relative to others, which is why the controls were exclusively given to them in that patch when they were.

they aren’t broken except in niche cases

I was responding to the quoted poster’s obvious exaggeration about proc changes in general, not making a commentary about Consume.
