I just want to say, congratulations! In an attempt to fix balance issues, whatever balance there was is gone.
Mercs are now as strong as they were in delta, with nothing to counter them.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this mess?

Rabble already said they are going to look into those moves now and they will come up with solutions as well. As for mercs in 1 vs 1 like you told me in jug how you found them easy, I find them a bit easier as well.

A good emp helps me stop them from using berzeker on me, and with a mix of planning and luck on my end sometimes I can beat them.

But for a permanent solution nerf strength since that is all I see merc's using other then support. As for the support one's Energy drain is your friend.

Ah but, before that wasn't limited to a class. NOW it is. That is the problem.

@ Kru3ial

He is saying that with the adding of more stats they some merc builds that wouldn't normally work well due to less stats work again.

I have, and present again my suggestion:
Health penalization to players who abuse a stat too much.

If you have too much strength, you should have some sort of DoT applied, or a limit of health you can have.
This would solve the problem, I am sure.

@ nico0las

Are you trying to bring back another form of agility when they just removed it?

Also what would be considered abusing a stat?

I've tried like every variation of str merc without PP and can't get over 50% win rate.

lol... r u serious... if you block one attack of mercs you win. the blocks are out of control. if you have some dex and shadow arts you are god in omega. the block is just too darn much. first nerf the blocks then you can complain abt mercs being too powerful.

In my point of view, the ones in this thread talking about everything being balanced and/or about how blocks should be nerfed are merc str abusers.

Because clearly, 25-30 str + 35/36 weapon and a minimum of 30 def/res is perfectly balanced along with 100 hp.

/sarcasm



@Priest

Block berzerker and survivors have to deal with 60-66 damage PER TURN compared to someone of average str.
It's like hitting with an average-leveled plasma bolt/deadly aim build that costs no energy nor cooldown.

^ 60-66 damage?.... then you have to have some good res and def. they do require a lot of energy. around 70. if you block one... your victory is guaranteed on the other hand str "abuse" doesn't always give you any confirmation. i have a lot of str... but i have yet to do 60-66 damage on anyone... unless you are the one with 10-14 res with 150 health or so.... then why does it matter if you get 60 damage.... you have so much health.

Priest, you seem very biased towards merc
Not everyone has this wonderful shadow arts and dex build that you speak of
Str is consistent, blocks are not

I am a merc as well but I found out that a counter to the strength ones since I am a support is intimidate then aux and artillery always finishes them before they finish me hope this helps

@Priest

You're terribly biased.

Most lvl 35's have at least 30 def/res up to 40.

So, let's say I have a build with 40 def/res MINIMUM.

Now, let's say I blocked Berzerker and Double Strike.

The merc with 25-30 str will still do 20-36 damage through that much defenses.

Let's not forget that to get high def, you need to sacrifice str, making said player with 40 def/res have around 7-9 or lower str.

You're a tad bit stubborn.
