So Bots were buffed while Focus was nerfed. Coolbeans.

At Focus 5, it's a 7 damage decrease, which should help pretty well.



goldslayer1 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:16:23)

well i guess its time i go back to my 0 focus mage now. looks like ill be dealing more damage with my robot.

yeah, lets make NPCs even more pointless!!
*Note: there is heavy sarcasm in that statement*



ansh0 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:18:53)

Good to see focus go away.

Can anyone list all of the items in Cindy's shop and their prices(at max lvl)?



Necromantres -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:21:04)

well i wonder what will be the next mercenaries wining build



goldslayer1 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:22:12)

either theres a bug, or they had a typo in the design notes.

its Focus X 5
not by 4.



Baron Dante -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:24:54)

ansh0: Armors seems to be 12200 Credits or 795 Varium, Bike 50k Credits or 1950 Varium.

Gold: I'd lean to a bug. Focus x 5 is barely a nerf. That'd be... 2 damage lost? Except it's 4x for me.



Xendran -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:26:22)

It's meant to be focus x4.
6 focus was supposed to be a thing, but it looks like it's been delayed now.
5 Focus builds already have great tankiness and huge damage, losing some bot damage will be a nice way to bring them in line.

I personally would be happier with focus x4 alongside 6 focus being added and bot damage slightly changed around a bit to give a wider range.

Infernal +15
Gamma Bot +18
Botanical +17
Omega Yeti +19
Azrael +16
Pyro Fly +15
Assault Bot +17
Bunny +17

Assault bot special should be able to cleanse Azrael's will to allow for more strategy in relation to battles, helping your partner, and choosing the correct bot.
Assault bot special should be able to clear 65% of frostbite



Melbourne -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:27:11)

I can't believe the only way to get credits is now even more reduced. Now the best we can do is 3700 a day if we actually do all 100 Npc battles :l
Oh boy how am I going to make money now if I run out?

Edit: Autocorrected me again.



spinutto -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:32:30)

What was that unneccessary npc battle limit?
Out of the blue like that?



The Incredible Hulk -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:32:48)

Drop rates has been increased.....
OooooHHH YeaaaaH



Mother1 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:33:49)

@ dante

Even with robots getting a buff, nerfing the bonus that focus itself gives is still a nerf to focus builds.

Before my bonus with robot damage was this

12-16 + 13 + 30= 55-59

Now it is this

12-16 +16 + 20= 48-52

which means now with focus 5 my robot even with the buff does 7 less damage then before.



ansh0 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:34:17)

My 5 focus BM seems stronger somehow...

Q.Q



Baron Dante -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:38:09)

Sorry, but I don't see the issue with limiting NPCs to 100. You can get unlimited Credits from PvP.

Mother: I know. I did include that in my math, did I not? With Focus x4, + the increased 3 Bot damage, 5 Focus has 7 damage decrease. If it was a Focus x5 (As Goldslayer said it was in-game, which I couldn't see), then it'd be a decrease of 2 damage, which wouldn't be enough, really.

I do think it was cool to increase Bot base damage tho. Makes them more usable for non-Focus builds.



spinutto -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:48:57)

Quick fact, my Botanical Hazard is still dealing 9 poison dmg, and 35 dmg on 24-29+5 opponnent...
Also in character page, Focus tooltip shows Focus 5 to give 25 dmg not 20 so i think its a typo.



Xendran -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:52:54)

My botanical hazard damage actually went UP.

How did this +4/+5 inconsistency make it past 'testing'?



ansh0 -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:54:49)

I think the nerf is bugged, don't see a difference in damage.



Ranloth -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:55:18)

Poison may not be affected as much. With my damage (47-51), I get 28.2 damage from Poison and when divided by 4, it's 7.05 damage per turn. ED rounds up thus making it 8. No change in Poison for me as Focus 4.



kosmo -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:55:26)

Soooo.Any bot changed the dmg is still the same and bothanical hazzard now can do 10 poison with 106 tech and 5 focus.Lol they actually buffed bots.



Digital X -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:56:02)

Master Spore on my first kill, I like this already[:D]

I'll need to do some comparisons or something to see how my damage was changed, math and me and chalk and cheese.



Xendran -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:57:09)

Looks like the focus change wasn't tested, because there's no way a bug like this would get past a team of testers.

EDIT:

If going by 4 focus i have (21+17+20)*0.6/4 poison damage, which nets me 8.7 rounded up to 9.
My poison is doing 10 per turn, which would require 21+17+25 to go to 9.45 rounding up to 10.

Yep, focus is *5.



kosmo -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 15:59:51)

Yes I agree it s ridiculess how they pull our leg evry time.

:o
*acts obtuse*
i wonder what happened? :/



Baron Dante -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 16:10:38)

It's interesting though, how the numbers do imply x4. As such, I do assume this is a bug, and will be fixed shortly enough.



Titan -> RE: Patch Notes - 1.5.13 (5/3/2013 16:13:29)

I updated the language file to reflect the new 4 Damage per focus change. This was a typo. You may need to clear your cache to see this change in the Focus rollover menu on your stats page.
