After some extra thought, for me, here's what I think. First, remove health gaing for backburner. If we can't remove, drop to 25 or 15. Just enough to survive a bit more punishment. Go back to having drop off in damage. You shouldn't take full damage and ignite for just being licked by flame. That being said, dropoff shouldn't go down to 25% like it was before. Say at most it drops off to 55% or 60%. As it stands, any class slower than pyro can't get away. Especially soldiers. As it stands, it's about the inverse of the pyro vs soldier fight pre update. While I think the increase in PB damage is good, removing the damage reduction entirely is just horrid. As it stands, a backburner pyro has more HP than a soldier. Because of everything, soldier is going to lose the long, medium and close range fight. If they really wanna keep going like this, soldier rockets should have no dropoff damage. Soldier vs pyro now is kinda like brining a knife to a gun fight.
<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills <@Negate> 12121212121212121212 <@Negate> there is a simple pattern <+Karrde> I changed my mind. Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD <+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself <+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some. |
