Re: Crater Maker overnerfed?

@KingusBanana Yeah that's weird. the ttk patch hasn't actually come out yet you've kinda worded that like you've used the new crater maker. Think of it like this.
Direct hits do 5
Splash hits 10
why would it deal less damage for being directly on top of someone? if you are near someone, you will hit 10s. Being directly on top of someone will deal an extra 5 damage. 15 damage overall. It used to hit 20s, now it will hit 15s. not much of a change. It will still melt people.

    @chogath_player from testing yesterday it doesn't last as long and the perk to make it longer also does not work the same as it did. Granted this was op as you could take down a boss in 1 go if you did it right. now you dont take half the hp. so something has been changed in the last update.

    I think the majority of us are so bitter about the state of Space Station (since launch), we don’t care if Crater Maker does 0 damage. 😂

    ...in all honesty, I’m not making any assessments until the entire patch and balance pass is issued.

    I thought something was odd when I went to play Space Cadet and no one else was.  I only have a handful of characters left to get from Super Elite to Master, and Space Cadet was one of them.  It was a struggle to to level her because her character was useless!

    None of her shots seemed to hit their target, and when they did, the damage was pathetic.  And it was apparently open season on Space Cadet because other players would completely ignore the objective and chase me down, even around corners and into the enemy line.

    I saw the patch notes, but there is something else off about Space Cadet.  She just doesn't seem to play right.  I agree that she needed a nerf, but she appears to have been sabotaged.

    As far as i understand they only nerf damage and health but not the actual transformation, which definitely does need adjustments.

    I would not mind if it takes 2 (hold button) seconds to jump out of the station.

    Just a shame because i literally beat one of the tough Gnome challenges only with the force of Crater Maker. But maybe that one is now easier.

  • I should have also put this with my first post on this topic but this is everything about the space station from the patch notes on the 27th.
