Postby Rakdos » Mon 04 May, 2020 2:02 pm

issue: to much damage. Nearly wiping squad from two casts.

Any high damage skills that can be spammed on multiple units is generally a bad idea.

I just played a game with 2 full-health, upgraded Dire Avenger squads insta-wiped by triple banishment (tier 1). I can't see a reason to have any ability in the game that can stack like this and insta-wipe squads.

It's not often I get 2x SS and super rare I get 3 but of course, you do see it quite a bit!

For the here and now, it's kinda like Doombolts where you have to bait them out. You know they'll be coming, so standing still will get you the brunt of it.

If they've been cast but not let off and the caster moves, it's still triggered as being used and the cooldown commences (can't remember if energy is still expelled).

I don't mean they're like Doombolts as a like for like, I have no idea of the numbers but what I mean is until any changes to them are made you've gotta keep on the move and expect them to come your way.

Also on this - if 3x SS with Banishment + Justicar - that's a lot of investment. Rangers will give you some initial help as OM have no detection without Operatives.

If you can ride out to a quick vehicle, they'll be on the back foot pretty quickly.

u can't beat 3x heavy infantry without platform. any 3-non starting unit spam is punishable.

how do you think a platform holds up against 3x smite? you should go do a little testy test with someone in a 1v1 and see what happens when a platform or setup team takes 3 smites to the face
