 Just another sugegstion of mine for BMs since they could use a small buff but I'm not sure if this would be enough or too much.

We all know how Strength was nerfed greatly from the beginning of Omega, likewise with Support. Diminishing returns have caused a drop in Strength builds for BMs but they still exist! The reason for it was nerf in %-based attacks and Fireball being changed just before Omega which has caused Str BMs to perform a bit worse than before. Quite a pity that variety got limited, right? Aim of Omega was the complete opposite of it, not just stat wise but skill wise.

My suggestion is simple:

Put Fireball at the same level as Plasma Bolt. There is no reason for these two skills to be unequal anymore since Bolt is stronger and isn't OP whilst Fireball is strong but not strong enough. Why? Even though it means Strength abusers, it really doesn't. If we put it at the same level as Bolt, we're looking at +3 or +4 damage increase from the current one per 100 Strength which is enough to buff the skill to be efficient. With current Bludgeon, it's two Physical attack so you should know what's coming your way if you meet 'em.

Taken from my BM Energy Drain thread:
quote:

ORIGINAL: King Helios
If fireball were buffed alongside this, awesome! If not, still supported, just raise damage % like 2 or 3%

http://forums2.battleon.com/f/tm.asp?m=21306526

This is one of the reasons I wouldn't mind a buff. My suggestion revolves around removing Bludgeon for Assimilation-like EP drain that works off Strength but gives +10% damage at Lvl 10 which is less than a half of that at Lvl 1 Bludgeon! So the buff would make Strength builds useful and not necessarily to drain damage.
As a note, even if the Energy Drain suggestion didn't work out, the buff should still be done. I'm just linking the two suggestions here!

With BL, bludgeon and DA, the BM already has enough str-based skills. When fireball was stronger it was proven to be OP...

 It's weaker than the pre-nerf Fireball and stronger than the current one. In-between. Also, DA and BloodLust won't be passives anymore. The main point is - diminishing returns on Strength have caused Str BMs to drop in power drastically. They aren't as harmful anymore.

I guess we will have to see the effect of passives -> actives before making further suggestions about skills.

fireball should scale like plasma bolt now since i see no one screaming about plasma bolt
and if bludgeon gets removed well it would be a good replacement however with a requirement of a staff :)

Personally, I feel that all class balance should be left as it is for now,

Because.....

We have NO idea on how the passive to active changes are going to happen

Agree with Soulweaver. Who knows, Str BMs could be ridiculously OP'd again (compared to other classes).

This is crap stop complaining about nerfing plasma and fireball, They are making mages complete trash. Plasma is pretty much at the same damage as a good tech mercenaries bunker, but bunker has a 25% percent chance to crit and ignores defense. this is making the game so unbalanced. Even after y'all made plasma trash people complained about def mages just stop complaining and leave the mages be.

 1) This isn't about Plasma Bolt (nor Cannon).
2) The suggestion is to buff Fireball.
3) It could be your build if you lose as a TM since they can compete quite well (apart from defence).
4) This isn't about TMs but BMs.

bolt is severely debuffed so fireball has no right to buff

 Two skills are equal (the same type), TM can loop due to Reroute whilst BM can get HP back, but Bolt is stronger than Fireball. What's your point? It doesn't have a right to be buffed because Bolt is stronger yet was nerfed recently? Okay. Any other reasons? That one doesn't even count, really, because you're saying it shouldn't be buffed because Plasma Bolt is stronger. >_>
