Huge

big update

bless your heart jacquas for these amazing changes, especially the Protellomo & Protellum it warms my healer's heart for these. i hate ignio, thank you.

MASSIVEEEE

needed changes! props to project lead JACQUAS!! great job!

Congrats to Jacquas and the rest of the team on a job well done! Super excited for these changes!

nerfing flipelius this hard is just because jack is the lead of this not a single other player but me actually uses it and just because i am good with it and jack sees that in a 1v1 perspective shouldnt mean both the damage and cooldown should be decreased. i think this is overdoing it even if its on the strong side either nerf the damage or the cd but both is unnesaccary and only because jacks ego gets dropped by being comboed in a flipelius shouldnt mean it should be double nerfed. and maybe its dps is higher than a casca headshot which he just explained in a vc but by that logic vermilio is also a million times too OP with the 1 sec cd.

like the baul ct reduction lowkey.
ignio nerf should also be nerfed in height lowkey just saying.
ventimus had no business being buffed just because it was strong back in 2021 doesnt mean it should be that strogn rn.
the volo feruvio is also nonsense with a 3 sec cd it did indeed need a cd but 3 sec is toomuch its the only way aggresive playstyle players can possibly healin a balanced way since our epifios dont heal for 1.8k which is a full headshot stupeficus.
obscurio is still badwith 1.4k headshot damage with dmg talent and the effect its supposed to do not really working at all at blindign the opponent.
religo is still bad the 5 sec cd is waytoomuch for only a buff imn 6 % velocity as a slow moving projectile with a too small velocity in with this cd is unusable.
bombardus nerf cool
expellimo also kinda understandable.
incarcerum will be funny to try a bit with.

looks like there will be a lot of cc spamm this meta with baul ventus and venenox buff


and you can obviously see that this patch is healer based and has its priority for the healer playing playerbase
with multiple dmg and cc nerfs with a little bit of bias from jacquas hosting this buff

spells i didnt mention are just rando spells i wont be using prob but also all cc aoe spells
if joelowo would be around this would be hell

you good lil man?

Can't lie sounds like a lot of unnecessary complaints from you

okay next patch add 40 concurrent players

flip was broken and everyone knows it, i just didnt use it cause its boring
although i would be interested into an investigation into healing as a whole, particularly self epifios
