    I never run well. I don’t like running solar. But, Mmm The mech in Zero Hour Master will kill you just with the overhead bombardment. You could definitely die in a well in Master+, you couldn’t just tank anything. Esp when there’s a laundry list of negative modifiers And your power lvl is limited. It wasn’t the fault of Well, it was the fault of how you designed the boss encounter. The same way, “Must have Gjallarhorn” was not the fault of Gjallarhorn, it was the design of the Skolas encounter that created the phenomenon. Hardly anybody could beat the encounter until Solar Burn week, with Gjallarhorn. Runs were going 5, 7, 10 hours and people just gave up. I remember it vividly…. Instead of fixing the design issues around bosses - they sunset the gun entirely from the franchise. Until it was time to sell it back. Yeah. They blamed Gjallarhorn too. But As long as you design raid or dungeon encounters to be the way they are… well is not the problem. Esp if you’re going to surround me with infinitely spawning snipers, while doing a DPS check with an exposed crit spot on a stationary boss that will insta-wipe the team. See: RHULK and Wrath of the Machine >>> ACTION based raid design with Movement is the solution. You cannot afford to sit still. But like 85% of encounters it’s designed to create the so-called problem. Nerfing well doesn’t change the logical solution for how you designed the activities

      I remember how bad Skolas was, it is pretty annoying. With what's said in the video with how nothing can replace Well, it getting hit this hard is just going to make things worse, especially for older encounters you'll find in GM's with Well designed in mind.

    • @ghanaria7996
      @ghanaria7996 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah, i like bosses where we dont all just stand in one safe spot and dump ammo. It just doesn’t seem very fun or skillful. Having a boss move around and actually be hard to do damage on i think is more fun. Something like nezarec, except if he jumped on you more, caused blinding, and teleport around. Maybe if he like pulled everyone towards him or something.

      what bit of wrath of the machine was like rhulk?

I do believe they've also said they design the bosses around having access to Div and Well, which would explain the ridiculous health numbers and dps spots.

  • @Evan.13239
    @Evan.13239 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

    Just to dash any hopes of a buff for Howl of the Storm. Stasis crystals have a base shatter damage of 150, and Bungie explicitly said that those weren't getting an adjustment. As far as I've been able to test it's not possible to get enemy shatters (previously base 200 damage, now base 400) to inherit the buffs from the source of the Freeze status effect, and the only way to buff enemy shatter damage outside of Whisper of Fissures that I've found is to use the Warlock super.
    So Howl of the Storm, while creating stasis crystals that count as melee damage because crystals do inherit the properties of their source, won't be seeing any direct buffs. What will be nice for Howl of the Storm, however, is that the crystals will now automatically detonate themselves when a player shatters a frozen enemy near them. It previously required two enemies shattering near a crystal for the crystal to break, but with the base damage of enemy shatters now being doubled it should be possible to use a single frozen enemy to shatter everything at once.
    I'm also kind of banking on the improved shatter damage helping out Lance Cap builds a bunch as well. With the Lance Cap being able to make three crystals on champions and bosses I'm expecting the exotic's added damage to be much more accessible since shattering the affected champion or boss should break all of the crystals without any additional attention needed. After all, 400 base damage from the enemy and 3x150 base damage from all of the crystals will match an Ignition in terms of damage, and this can be improved with fragments. I doubt it'll make a Lance Cap build especially good at boss dps or anything, but it will be pretty nice for general neutral game potency in GMs and such.

    one more thing regarding the grapple point lingering cooldown: after the 35 something seconds you can guarantee a contingency plan by just spawning another grapple point with the navigator again, which by that time has the cooldown for creating a grapple point run out. or if you're keen on using a hunter for the grapple point creation i am certain you can have a full grapple back by that time too.

    the shatter damage might actually still be relevant on bosses, as it onlystates taht was a thing with auto shattering which as far as im aware only happends after 2 seconds of doing no extra damage. which doesnt happend that often, so we should see an addtitional increase in shatter damage to bosses most of the time

    4:53 you hit the nail exactly on the head. Well can't be replaced. The closest you can get is stacking multiple different things.
    The biggest factor in convincing me how bad Well was for the game was realizing that, for a while there, the Titan exotic glaive had a better Bubble than actually running the super, and most raid bosses you're better off running Tractor Cannon than Tether, but it's impossible to come up with an idea for an exotic weapon that singlehandedly does Well's job better without being clearly overpowered. Something like that would be a worse "must have or throwing" exotic than Divinity, Gjallarhorn, and Anarchy in all their strongest iterations combined.

    HOIL is still one of my favourite things to use on Arc Titan, Thruster and Thunderclap work great with it because of the short activation times so I'm glad to see the buffs to TClap and Knockout.
    Speaking of which, very much looking forward to KO/Consecration/Frenzied Blade on Prismatic Titan. Come on and slam and welcome to the jam.
    Lightweight Knife buff is great but it's a shame it doesn't work with Ophidia Spathe. I'm glad they acknowledged it instead of letting people find out the hard way, but I'm too set in my ways with Knife Trick and might find it hard to switch.
    I hope it does end up getting synergy in the end, three knives would be *very* attractive.

    Thanks for the vid. The only thing I have to add is the comment about the double shatters on frozen bosses. It doesn't seem to always happen; I'm assuming that means damage can sometimes breaks bosses out before they automatically break out. So the removal of the double shatter and doubling of shatter damage should just make shatter damage vs bosses more consistent. Not that this matters that much, I just find it interesting.

    I think for the lightning surge part, it mostly aims for prismatic subclass I feel. Prismatic can get insane uptime with melee charge with the help of fragment giving them melee energy with rapid light kills and using arcane needle. This gives them flexibility of diving into group of adds and killing them or being ranged using arcane needle. And they can have the sustain and durability when pairing with devour aspects and using repulser brace or fragment that gives them woven mail/void shield.
    Arclock should just be relegated to rift and electrostatic mind spam. Whereas Lightning surge in PvE can be better utilize with Prismatic subclass.

    @thessaloniousbadonkious หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It wasn't mentioned that Renewal would be losing the -50% damage for enemies in the bubble; with the Frost Armor changes and Prismatic being able to use Widow's Silk for double charges, there's some potential for a very long -50% from boss, -36% incoming (with Rime, obviously less without)...before accounting for Sever -40% outgoing damage/other DR like Well of Radiance/Stag. We could potentially approach the point where Master Raid bosses are tickling us in the snowflake dome. Especially cause we are supposed to get ALL subclass Aspects through the campaign, so Touch of Winter/Widow's Silk will be the premier Duskfield spam build.

    The drawback of using Well is not having a damage super. Why does everyone, including Bungie, overlook that? You're trading burst damage for survivability.

    I cant speak for the other Stasis Subclasses but as far as Behemoth went they just took things you were already doing and combined them into easier to maintain more convenient options since you no longer have to micro manage all the Stasis Crystals you could spawn and where they are positioned which makes it less punishing the mess up.
    The Stasis Shard ICD is definitely going to hurt Behemoth but its a small price to pay compared to the alternative and it really was a problem in PvP considering it was just free Overshields on round start without any interaction from your opponent AND you could run it along with Collective Action for a damage buff as well to meet certain break points and could also fuel the Elemental Charge mod quite easily.
    as far as the Grapple Tangle change is concerned im curious if this will apply to regular tangles since Bungie goes through the effort to differentiate them in visual appearance and name.
