[LEGACY] Nerf Banshee Bow?
Posted: 14 Oct 2019, 17:46
The most polemic thread...
This is a simple change, actually. Banshee Bow gives 90 damage. But as it makes you attack 20% faster (which stacks with potions), we can multiply this value and say it is really giving 108 damage. Of course, it's not so simple as multiplying by 1.2 - We have to consider potions effects, and we aren't even considering the base attack speed to compare with swords, for example.
The proposal is making it 75 damage. Why? Because 75 damage + 20% from attack speed bonus = 90 damage which was promised.
Note: Don't be fooled by the looks, I'm lowering 15 damage points in database but I'm nerfing 18 damage points.
Also, assuming a critical gives x2 damage, that would make criticals go from 180 to 150 damage - a nerf of 30 raw damage, or 66 raw damage with Attack Speed bonus taken in consideration (which is wrong).
As a side note: This should be the last balancing patch I'm proposing for Legacy. See also: This also follows the rules for this section - 15 votes, with 69% ratio rounded up (so 11 positive votes at minimum), running for 30 days (or less, depending on rEvolt release date schedule).
