Monos King Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) As the title states, the end drain with high stacks of Static on defibrillate is...too much. Behold the results on a tank with 86% end resistance. Diminishing Returns were disabled. Things were even worst when they were not, as expected. Spoiler Within the video image is also an interesting bug with Defibrillate, which displays a "miss" despite very clearly hitting the opponent. Spoiler I don't call for any nerfs in PvE instances, but with the very quick recharge of the move Defibrillate is far too effective in PvP. It should be flagged not to benefit from static in PvP scenarios, or reduced to 10% effectiveness or something. I think the first proposal should be enough.

Instead of draining a percentage of a target's end as is typical for end drain powers, they drain a flat amount (this is not how it normally works in PvE). Those three powers do not have separate PvP flags and this is the big difference - normally PvP end drain is a fixed value instead of a percentage but is usually about 1/2 to 1/3 of the PvE value. For example, Transference on a Defender drains 56.25% end on PvE targets but 20.84 end (note that's a fixed value and not a percentage) on PvP targets. Shock and Defibrillate for sure need separate PvP flags for end drain that follow the normal rules. Discharge is less an issue since it's only 3 end.
