I have the weird feeling that I'm the only one notice that not every skills/stat in ED decay and make it easier to abuse than other.
Note: Decaying is where the "bonuses" you get for adding a Skill point/Stat point into a Skill/Stat get lower and lower as the skill/stat increases.

Some examples:
BB does not decay
Healing does not decay
Most ultimate skills do not decay
Multi have lower decay than other skills

Or stat wise:
HP MP skill do not decay
Block, Crit, Deflection, Rage... do not decay

So shouldn't everything of the same tier should decay at the same rate? I don't see any reason for some skills to be better at max while far weaker at low.
I think this greatly effect balance. Why not trying to do something about this instead of small nerf toward skills/stats of this group? (Like people want to nerf Block, why not putting decay on Block, or putting it on Ultimate skill?)

BB?

Heal doesn't decay because they "nerfed" it. It used to decay when it was improved with SUP.

Ulti skills don't decay because....they're Ulti skills.

Multis have lower decay? They still decay...

HP/MP don't decay because why would they?
Block/Crit/Def/Rage do decay.

Defense/Res do decay...(more points to improve)

In my opinion (I say this because I don't really feel like getting trolled in this topic) Decay should be removed from stats like str, dex, tech, and sup entirely, it favors focus builds and non vars far too much.

Does it really matter? Being an Ulti skills doesn't mean they should be stronger. Same can be said about healing.

pls go read the formula again...

I must say, some skills, decay or not, are already very bad compare to other skills. But shouldn't every skills stand on the same standard to be balanced easier?

@rej there's obviously different between someone who max their primal skill and someone who just add every Skill Point into any skills (Noob build). The difference between Cost and Opportunity cost is huge. That's why decay exist, and ED is the the only game have that system.
Allow abuse builds meaning you killed half of the creative builds because there won't be any reason to use balanced builds.

Focus build doesn't do anything, especially with current bots role
And there's no reason to dump Non Varium down just because they won't go for the build they aren't meant to use.

Without enahcments there would be no need for decay.

Thats my opinion.

Enhacments obviolsy caused alot of balance probelms but instead of addreesing the problems head on they just add stat decay which counteracts some of the bonus stats given from enhacments which really makes me wonder how and why the decided to relea$e enahcemnt$ on aux'$ and $ide arm$ when they had to corrent their mstake with decay.
