These changes are not out in beta yet but just in case the patch lands while im in lala land and no notes are posted, this is what SHOULD be on the next patch:

 

Sonic Melee

• Attune
  • Adjusted vfx
  • Cast time reduced from 1.67s to 1s
  • Range increased to 20ft

These changes sound good to fix Attune within the concept of the power set. Certainly what I am looking for, at least after having tested it on a Stalker. The range more than anything should prove to be highly relevant, as the power is really wasted on minions, and allowing it to be placed deeper in a group can allow me to work from the edge inwards while it grinds on a boss.

Sonic/SR Scrap vs Axe/SR Scrap at level 40

Galaxy Brain Office mission at +2x1 w/bosses.

I think we all knew that Sonic wasn't going to be a S Tier set off the bat, and while comparing baseline numbers against an S Tier set is good to confirm this, I would say those numbers are not particularly worse than many of the other B Tier or even A Tier sets. Given the tradeoff for the team utility of debuffing resistance to debuffs, is that a bad thing? Really looking forward to seeing how the set plays with high debuffing toon like a sonic defender or a Huntsman build. With procs my Huntsman debuffs resistance at around 60% in an area, and that number not being resisted against purples will be meaningful.

 

I think having another damage set with some team utility is not a bad thing, and am willing to sacrifice some top end DPS to achieve that.
