Funny how nobody has mentioned this before but Fearless is about as broken as it gets in this game. If people knew how to use it better, I think it would be further exploited, too.I haven’t PvP’d much in the last few weeks but need to make a video of this upgrade in action. Basically, the more opponents you stand near, the quicker your health regenerates. This might not seem like an unfair advantage on paper but when utilized properly, it’s as unfair as Scientist was a few months back.Small disclaimer: this is BY FAR my favorite PvP upgrade in the game, when I play my natural playstyle (more of a brawling/melee type). Any character with this upgrade option in the game, I have it equipped.I simply see the upgrade as way too powerful, especially when combined with certain character kits/other upgrades. I don’t like seeing my favorite character, ability, etc, nerfed but feel this is far more necessary than say the deletion of Cactus’s Alacrity upgrade.Thoughts?EDIT: typo

@spIash_damage I'm trying to remember which characters have that as a possible upgrade?I think I do have it equipped on one character (can't remember which) but know I either have it on a character select I use for PvE or it's one I'm completely useless with, so it kind of balances out!I agree though, that it's an upgrade that is overly powerful for PvP (could possibly be acceptable if it was only usable in PvE??) & open to exploitation.

I haven't played much PvP since the 8v8 test for TT but it was pretty sick before then on some characters. It's huge in Ops as Super Brainz and jumping into piles of weeds and come out with very little damage.

Go to any PvE zone and initiate a battle/skirmish.Use the jump/pound ability (triangle on PS4) to get into a group of enemies without being shot to death getting to them. Immediately after that ability, spam punch a little and then throw an Ultra Ball. You can use the jump ability evade damage and spam punches/ultra balls at the pile of enemies until the jump ability refreshes... never have to aim, just rinse and repeat the cycle. It’s as broken or more broken in PvE than it is PvP because there’s less heroes (enemies with ability to shoot).Using the upgrade in PvE is what taught me to use it correctly in PvP.Problem with PvP is that people who don’t know how to use the ability think they’re using certain characters inefficiently compared to others... left wondering, “how did he kill me/how didn’t I kill him/how’d I die so fast.”Apparently nobody using the ability has confessed or discussed how overwhelmingly powerful it can be. Reminds me of Future Cactus with a rapid fire device.

I don't think this upgrade is this good, it regens you HP a little, after the TTK changes, principally with a bigger character than All-Star like SB, you will get obliterated in no time, principally against good players.OP upgrades are Regen upgrades and some others, honestly.

@dwooten77 I have put this in any characters except for the pea shooter and I didn't see any difference (because I wasn't paying attention). But im decent with the imp so im def gonna give it a try 🙂

@dwooten77 I’ve partaken in such endeavors with said individual. Sadly, when I encountered him it was only worsened by the fact that he repeatedly swapped over the zombies game after game to use this exact technique.

Broken to the point I consider it a trash tactic. If Fearless doesn’t make much difference for you, focus LESS on aiming and just double jump, dodge, and practice staying alive. You’ll learn soon enough you don’t have to aim much as long as you keep moving and stay near multiple enemies. Truly devastating.
Reminds me of detos from GW2.
@GraveledStoopid No doubt on shroom. X2. My new main. 🤣🤦🏼‍♂️

@ToastedSarnie All attack characters have it I think

@YeetYeetGw2 Aaah! I did spot yesterday I have it on Chomper, where I think it's pretty helpful (for me, anyway!)

This upgrade "fearless" allows you to regenerate 8 health per second when near 2 or more enemies (only attack characters ever receive it). I would suggest this upgrade with close-range (like chompers and super brainz) or small characters (like imp and nightcap).

I think it should be a little different. Update causes a lot of controversy.
Some people like different variants of the game, they like the update, it facilitates their gameplay, while others hinder it. I believe that introducing such changes should cover everyone equally, but this is my opinion..

@spIash_damage Makes sense. Im pretty aggressive but I'll try just dodging more
