I was thinking the same thing. Having not seen a Regen or accuracy nerf in a while, I was wondering where he'd gotten to....

Ba-dum-bum.

Wow. They're looking at fixing Fury in PvP?

I died on the way home, didn't I?

No, wait, this can't be Heaven. There's too many people I don't like here...

does this take into account the fact that not all brutes will be facing ultra burst damage?

It'd be abit unfair for say, a claws scrapper fighting an invuln brute to get him to 50% fury in a couple of attack chains.

There's alot of things unfair in Scrapper vs. Brute fights.. but 95% of the time, it has been to the advantage of the Scrapper. 50% Fury also puts the dmg multiplier to 1.0.. which is still not close to 1.125 -- not including unresistable crits.

Thanks for working on this Castle & Gecko! It's important to a lot of us!

Hey guys, don't get tooo excited yet. It's not for sure a fix yet until _castle_ comes back and says "It worked, expect it in X patches". Just saying, we don't wanna get our hopes up and find out it was unfeasible.

Well considering that he said theres no ETA, this shouldn't take more than 2 weeks. :P

Think about it, when they say Soon(TM) or give us a specific date it takes FOREVER.

Not all scrappers are spines regen imitation blasters. There's a reason the damage multiplier for brutes is so low, and it has something to do with EM,SM,SS etc.

It's not really a good idea for changes to be made when they put non "optimal" powersets at even more of a disadvantage, such as claws or DM. Don't get me wrong ofcourse, i'd love to see a spines scrapper get what he deserves for tryng to take advantage of what he thought was a helpless opponent, it's just the encouragement to make even more of them would be the last thing this game needs.

See.. I was thinking that the more attacks that can be thrown out, the higher chance of a crit happening.. of which is unresistable damage.

Remember, the only thing that a brute has going for her is raw, resisted damage that is boosted with fury. I know that Claws had it's animatiion times dropped on a few of its powers, as well as DM having 2 drain powers and -ACC debuffs in addition to a few other utility powers (holds/disorients/etc.) in it's arsenal... All in addition to getting the already-high base damage multiplier AND crits. Scrappers get their inherents from the beginning of the fight to the end of the fight, and it doesn't matter if they were recently rezzed or running to the fight right out of the hospital.

I'm 100% certain that Claws and DM will not be taking a major hit to their effectiveness against Brutes, merely that Brutes will be a bit more daunting to fight, a la Mike Tyson vs. Evander Holyfeld as opposed to Carol Channing. You know.. where you risk getting hit back almost as hard as you were throwing your hits in the first place.

You DARE come here and try to point out a downside to a Fix for fury in PVP? I'm shocked, I truly am. Oh and what about Dark Melee scrappers? You'll stand there cowering in fear for over half the battle if you don't have any breakfrees. Not to mention that once they start laying down those tohit debuffs you'll have to hit build up to start hitting consistently again.

Claws. Eh they can always kite us with Focus if they feel we're doing too much damage.

You're assuming that the scrapper crits, because i've gone on for a very long time fighting a brute while critting only 5 times. Anyways the suggestion would be to make sure that not all player damage is taken the same way, so that sets with lower burst damage aren't punished.

If someone hits you with EM anything,max it out. If someone hits you with dark blast or something considered "gimp" lower it abit. If we didn't do this then people will start thinking " i'm gonna max out his fury anyways, might as well be doing good damage" and we'll see flavour of the game instead of flavour of the month.

I don't think anyone wants to see anymore spines regen or ice/em blasters than we already do.
