Come on kk how many patches does it take to fix para?

Please just put out a little patch that reduces para like you said holy para shock halo is still better then holy paralysis.


Please fix this immediately I dont want to wait another month or two for it to be fixed it honestly ruins the gameplay.

What's that suppose to mean?

Anyways the para-spells really need to be nerfed. I didn't notice any change on the effect. But lets hope they will make a hotfix soon that fixes the problem :)

Range has been reduced by alot on holy para halo, its down to about 130 or so. It's slightly higher range then holy paralysis, and has slightly better rof. It costs a lot less psi to cast. The flip side is it doesnt shock as much as before, tho the effect is still more then enough to slow you down. Holy Paralysis tho is the same as before, you're practicly glued to the ground.

I dont have a para beam to test, but I imagine it's somewhere inbetween.

You must be playing a different patch then me if anything it slowed me down more but I think im being crazy but seriously I dont notice an improvement AT ALL.

If you read the last page of the thread it's continued after the patch, and theres a pretty good idea in there for a replacement for para

REMUS
30-01-04, 09:39
Well either fix it, remove it or make the drugs work properly becuase there is easily a 2-3 second delay for them to come into effect.

Psycho Killa
30-01-04, 09:42
I dont give a fuck about replacement right now I want them to fucking do what they said they did in the patch.

Reduce it for now worry about removing later.

FUCKING REMOVE PARASHOCK OK IF YOU CANT FIX IT AFTER A YEAR OF TRYING THEN FUCKING REMOVE IT

Sorry for cap's, but this fucking pisses me off.... ill give you all a cookie if you either fucking hotpatch fix the damn spell or just fucking outright remove it

Paraspam is not removed, the ROF seems upped, the parashock has not been nerfed, its as strong as it was before, and any para over TL fucking 25 is as strong as holy para ...


fix it.... please..... *sob*

enigma_b17
30-01-04, 23:31
lol calm down, i would have to agree though kk, u have tried to "balance" it but no1 is happy with it, so the easy solution would be to remove it completely, please dont go and nerf it to the point where its useless, as i said before adding another useless rare to the pool lol

I don't know if parashock should be removed, my only reasoning is because some ppu monks would be virtually impossible to kill then.

I think holy paralysis should be about a quarter stronger than thunderstorm. Which means other classes will have a chance to use shock if they need to.

Jesus guys.

Remove it, here we go, a PPU's role is solitary then to DMG boost and heal? Whats next a dmg boost nerf and removal because it causes players to die to quickly?

Make anti shock drugs stackable and the effects of parashock TL based.

But then the response is, well if anti shock drugs are stackable why not just remove parashock?

You've tried to NERF it 2 patches in a row now and all u've done it made it worse... as PK has said in a different thread.. cant u release a emergency patch that NERFs it as all it does atm is RUIN OP fights.

We've been here before. Are you honestly going to say a PPUs main job is parashock? The lamest thing in the entire game and you see it as a PPUs primary role? And you wonder why people hate PPUs?

When i tried ppu out i never bothered to para tbh, and some ppl like it cause its lame , oh well some ppl just like to be lame.

IF a ppu says ''ohnoz they deleted para im not going to be a ppu again damn shit!!!, then in my eyes that player should never been a ppu in first place...

I think we have to cry rivers and mountains until KK can just read what tons of ppl say : REMOVE PARA. ~

No fenix. antipara drugs are perfectly fine and they dont give bad
drugflash at all, they are a perfectly viable means of getting rid of
parashock. Just ask Archeus or WebShock, they are experts on
the subject.

are just fucked up.

Hey I have a 5 slot artifact Wyatt Earp, am I entitled to compensation too?

Seriously, saying no to removing the single lamest thing in the game on the grounds that you own the rare version, despite the fact that you don't even use the damn thing because para halo is better?

NO IF MY RANK IS HIGHER THEN SOMEONE ELSES IT MEANS IM l337er!!@!@

Anyways I wish my monk rank was lower somewhere in between tanks and apus so I could actualy gain xp for the people i help level.


Why the fuck do you want a higher rank it makes it that much harder to find someone to team with.

Near capped tanks spies pe'sapus and ppus should be able to share xp.

alig
31-01-04, 03:30
I want a high rank tank cuz i dont get why a pe or apu or ppu or spy gets such high ones considering not one of them types puts every single point into 1 sub skill and yet all 3 of them can get a rank to make a tank [can i say, the fighting class of this game] grey ranked.

And, i dont care if rank means everything or if it means jack shit, there there for a reason. When they made the game, a rank wasnt part of the engine that was required for the game to even run....kk put them in.:rolleyes:

A combat setup PE will not get *** unless he is in a fortress and using something like the SH, Disruptor or FL. And I don't think that it is even possible for a pistol PE to get a *** rank, unless maybe they cap the Slasher....

I don't see Pistol PEs going apeshit over ranks.

As I said in the other thread. If anything, rank is a measure of how bad your setup is. It's certainly not a reason to keep holy para in the game.

KramerTheWeird
31-01-04, 18:48
A rifle PE can get 3 stars by fully capping a ray of god, or speccing to silent hunter.

A pistol PE can get 3 stars by fuly capping a slasher, which is damn near impossible for a PE so maybe just a pistol spy, which even then requires gimpage.

Droner PE's can get 3 stars by speccing to particle nemesis.

uber driver PE's like myself can man a rhino turret :rolleyes:




wasn't this a thread about parashock, or something?
