Help with Padme mechanics
I must be missing something and I would really appreciate some help or clarification on this topic. I keep reading from other players and forum posts that Padme’s protection up abilities “scale” based on max health. I’ve read it in multiple forum posts. My guild mates reiterated this but couldn’t provide any reasoning.
However, I can’t find it anywhere in her description or abilities where it describes that particular mechanic. Specifically, that protection up SCALES with max health.
Her leader ability simply states that allies receive 50% max health, and later refers to protection up within the context of being immune to debuffs while having it, and then dispelling it for the purposes of courage. Courage specifically is all about doing damage to the enemy based on their max health.
So, her leader ability doesn’t provide any clues as to when or how protection up scales with max health.
Let’s move on to her unique. All it states here regarding protection up is that whenever someone loses protection up, they recover 5% health. That’s great, but it has nothing to do with it scaling. Then it moves on to explain receiving protection up whenever they are attacked out of turn, “increased to 40% if Padme is their leader.” This too, has nothing to do with scaling.
Let’s turn to her abilities. Her basic simply gives teammates 10% protection up. I read in another forum post that it was her special, “cunning plan”, which gives scaled protection up based on max health. However this doesn’t appear to be the case in the actual description. It’s a simple dispel and everybody recovers 50% max health. Then they receive 10% protection up for each debuff dispelled and each “galactic republic ally”. Again, this doesn’t state anywhere that protection up is scaling with health.
I then thought it was possibly described in her modding suggestions. Here, it’s a bit vague but it’s recommended to give Padme health mods to “get the most out of protection up and courage”. That could be referring to the recovering 5% health when losing protection up.
The unexplained aspect is why health mods would help with courage, which is dealing with protection up, not health, and the damage done is based on the enemies max health. Again, no description of anything scaling.
Did I miss something when her kit was announced or revealed? If so, I think that’s crazy, because how easy would it be for her leader description to clarify this? “Protection up is based on allys’ max health.”
I would love some help of clarification, I don’t need more reiterating of the exact thing I can’t seem to prove. I need to know where it shows that protection up scales to max health.
Also, this isn’t a post against health mods. Modding for health seems pretty solid.
Thanks for reading.
