So then it would be as I stated prior if the hit check doesn't occur until the actual impact, no?

IE on teams at least, mobs dead before either hit lol. original issue thoguh was if the one to hit check only affords it the bufs which I didn't specifcally notice anything spectacular on test if it was still gaining it from aim/build up. But there's that at least if it does lol.

Ultimately, the devs have the final say. I'm simply stating the issues with the power for you to weight in on changes and why I find it to be terrible overall with it's current stats/implementation.

Which, if doing that, means that you're only using at best, from the central vector, half of the radius. Meaning it's significantly LESS than other nuke areas. Make it knockUP at least?

If that makes a factor that would be the issue right there then. I hadn't noticed anything spectacular on it in test if thats making the issue too. That helps it for sure if true then, but still not a fan of the longer rech and terrible awkwardly placed KB.

Was there a change to how location powers work that i missed then? Because before this patch, if a buff on you wore off, like aim or build up, it would wear off on the location power. IE like using build up before blizzard, you can see the numbers decrease when aim/bu wear off at the end of the blizzard.

I'm not saying it's not a cool power, just that it has the worst stats/overall nuke in the game. Making it target based would solve most of the issues. Besides, as mentioned what would be cooler than from afar doing upthrust first, and meteor, and having them both connect from the ground and sky at the same time. But can't do that without losing the gaussian buff on the nuke unless it's target based.

Yes this is how any location power works.

Which only works if the mob is close together, and doesn't move at all. Also, gaussian proc, if you're only starting with it, which means yo ucan't get your other aoes off first for more damage in the gaussian time period, and finishing with the nuke. Yes, i'm well aware. Meteor sucks.

Not when you factor the long time it takes to hit the target. In which case, at the very least the guassian proc will expire before the damage actually hits. So other nukes basically at least have that going for them. Blizzard has much other bonuses to not count there. Blizzard ALSO has the most damage, knockdown, high acc, and insane -to hit... Meteor, has HORRIBLE knockback.

If it's going to be location based, it should completely neuter the mob as a nuke, even if it doesn't kill them. IE blizzard.

That's fine, cause it's not doing much out of los as it is with those stats anyway. Also not like it's hard to cast it as you're jumping behind the corner.

At the very least make it target based like TB, not location based.

TB is also target based, and does insane end drain and -recovery.

judgement = incarnate = 50+, not the 40 and lower game though, should remove it from the 30-40 mobs.

Those also recharge MUCH faster at base to make up for the lower damage. Obviously it would regard damage versus recharge, not JUST damage. And that also means the cooldown, is off base recharge which is higher, meaning overall recharges longer when buffs/bonuses/slotting are applied etc.

So a general comment of concern. I see that the stats for Meteor have still not been fixed making it literally the worst nuke in the game. Cons: 1. Longest recharge shared with Blizzard 2. Lowest damaging nuke shared with nova etc, per rech should be higher. 3. Crazy high kb mag, forcing you to put a kb-kd in it and wasting another slot. 4. Long time until the actual damage hits, on a location power. Meaning that most buffs you have on you, unless you literally start with it, will wear off by the time the meteor actually hits, making it do even less damage than comparable nukes. Gaussians proc being a huge example of this. 5. No beneficial secondary effect like other nukes, if it was only kd not needing to slot a kb-kd I would may say ok. But since it's location based, that ALSO means the knockback, is from the center of the location, not YOU. So if you don't put a kb-kd in it, the mobs will fly in all directions. Unlike nova for example, you can literally cast it as you're jumping out of the mob, and the mob will fly all in the same direction away from YOU. Pros: 1. It... looks cool?.... I don't care if in some instances it may look a tiny bit weird, but making it target based would solve these issues at the very least, and a rech reduction.

Make it just replace itself every 5 or 10 seconds and have it last 30s. So it still persists if mezzed off. Or you know this, but with what all toggles should do is only suppress when mezzed not toggle off completely.

Honestly, toggles being able to be mezzed off is one of the biggest issues/annoyances in the game. IMO all toggles should only suppress when mezzed, not toggled off completely.

That is precisely the reason I avoid arachnos at all costs. Way too annoying for a broken mechanic. If we could see them still in melee range or when they attack that would be a different story. But currently, it's auto hit from the npc version, and is actually THE most OP form of control by npcs if you don't have a proper inspiration/tactics to combat it.

High levels sure, but definitely not in the pre-40s arcs.

Holy balls seriously, get rid of the dumb -perception and confuse... Also, psy is bad enough on the bosses, they don't need to be doing mez on top of it too, especially with them still having MOG...

Really aoe confuse too? -100points on these changes seriously. Took away one of my favorite enemies and just completely ruined them. Please take away the -perception and confuse at least SERIOUSLY. At the very least non below level 41.

-perception is wholly unfair in pve without something to boost. Can you at least make it work like ours does so if they attack we can still see them?

Oh no way i had no idea this was a thing! Still though it should be more easily accessible for everyone who's not aware/on forums simply by right clicking on the team buff bar window etc.
