Gulbasaur Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) 12 hours ago, Frostbiter said: [Unpopular opinion ahead] I actually think Hasten does need at least one change: Why does Hasten lower the recharge of itself? One of these days Hasten is going to rip a hole in the multiverse. I completely agree with you. It being perma-able completely shoots holes in a lot of game balance. Even the original devs had problems with it - MAtt Miller directly called it abusive. From the Lore AMA thing on Paragon wiki: Quote A) Matt Miller (Positron) Axe the fitness pool. Hasten has a hilarious history. In Alpha it was way too good. If I recall correctly, there was no crash. When we added some drawbacks to it, the players went ballistic. I still remember one player claiming that it was “completely worthless now”. I would always, always, keep that player’s comment in mind whenever we would downgrade other abusive powers and players would complain. A small part of me would always think “maybe it’s not enough?” Hasten is not a good power because it is too good a power. I with they made it inherent, and unenhanceable, when they made the Fitness changes. Speaking of which, I remember a couple of times being a kinetics defender and being the only person on a team not to get the fitness pool. Someone even mentioned it once - like the solo-friendly defender inherent, Fitness had zero value to a mid-level teaming kinetics defender.

You can't stack Hasten with itself so it's not like it ends up in this infinite loop of +recharge. Sure it does.

Nerf nerfherding threads, they're rarely constructive and almost always end up exploding and getting locked and/or nuked from orbit. Thank you.

I'd say the same about tanks. And I'm building a new one right now. How about, instead, we just stop letting control freaks ruin everything for everyone because they think their opinions are global when it's proven time and time again that this belief is painfully false? Just a thought. Nerfherders kinda suck regardless of the facts of powercreep in this game. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I was thinking about Energy Melee, and figured Energy Punch, Bone Smasher, Energy Transfer, and Total Focus are so strong, to balance them out each attack should take at least 15 seconds, so the rest of the team has enough time to get comfy while the Energy Melee players go own everything.
