SHHH... you'll wake the nerf monsters!!! jk


I think that you calling us nerf monsters is a sure sign you were joking haha.  I like it though, makes me sound as if I actaully have my scaled furry finger on the button that will make the Typhoon do as much damage as the Eagle, while I laugh menically at all the hysteria that erupts from the threat I could press it at any moment, without actaully pressing it ever.

Make every gun/ability do the same damage. Whatever it takes to make these threads stop.

You can't just compare powers like you are. That's really not fair. Look at the classes as a whole, since the powers are class specific. What other power does the slayer have? It has Biotic Charge and Phase Disruptor. Charge can get you killed and phase disruptor isn't all that good. So a decent power in biotic slash is kinda needed. It's the ranged power for the Slayer without draining his barriers. It's better than shockwave because the classes that use shockwave have much better accompanying powers. Some can even set up their own BEs (Human Adept with Warp and Shockwave both detonation specced = way more overpowered than biotic slash on a character with no way to set up a BE to detonate).

.


Nah, not even close. Human Adepts are generally acknowledged to be the celler dweller adepts. The worst. To take the biotic explosion evolution on shockwave the adept must sacrifice the range evoution. The squishy adept must be within 16 meters. As has been pointed out already, Biotic slash is superior to shockwave in every conceivable way. And of course it's power is multiplied by tactical cloak. Unlike a Shadow, the squishy adept can't disappear or teleport away.
But I don't want to see it nerfed. I want shockwave buffed. :wizard:

I bet this guy has no problem with slapping a typhoon or harrier on a Destroyer, or the ability to toss 200 arc grenades though.

It is not overpowered. Smash with the proper evolutions actually does far more damage, even though it doesn't reach as far.

The 'slashes' are balanced for Gold quite well.

Don't you think this "overpowered" nonsense is getting a little old now?


Why this is just another typical NERF this item because it's making the game too easy thread.

Those two powers are definitely powerful, but I think it's a fair trade off for the extremely long casting/animation time they have. To be honest, I'm more annoyed about the constant sword SFX I keep hearing when two teammates keep spamming it over and over from behind a wall. :P

All I want to know is why does electric slash have force, and apparently more force than shockwave, so that it can knock down pyros reliably as pretty much the only thing in the game.

Also, it goes through walls, can (and should) be done from cloak without breaking it, does 200% damage tech bursts and strips shields from many Gold enemies in one hit without power damage upgrades...

...and all of that on top of shadow strike. It's a bit out of whack, but I guess people are too busy spamming shadow strike to notice yet.

Biotic slash... is kind of meh. Doesn't really excel in anything besides a ton of damage and combos through walls. If anything, the Slayer could use some buffs to melee and phase disruptor, Vanguard + shockwave has always been an odd couple.

Honestly, I don't use Electric Slash much at all. (I don't like the Slayer, so I can't say much about the Biotic Slash.) The animation is very long and you move forward, so I don't think it's terribly useful at all. You can set off your own tech bursts, sure, but one Shadow Strike kills most enemies that aren't bosses anyway.

Not recognizing that electric slash has the utility of two powers while outclassing both of them, which one of the two does that make you?

Too busy spamming 1 and 3 whenever you play Shadow to notice, or just not bothering to read before you insult?

No power should work through walls, besides that they are fine

Biotic slash? Meh.
So no.

Haven't had the chance to try it for myself yet.

My current impression from seeing it in use is that it makes shockwave seem somewhat underwhelming (ok, shockwave has always seemed somewhat underwhelming). As a spam power, I'd say the biotic/electric slash wins out. But the longer animation makes me think it's less useful when you're on the move. As a staggering power for those "oh ****" moments, shockwave is still pretty neat to have.

I play shadow on gold and never use it, just againts bosses, to slow them a bit
I don't think is OP, it can be a useful secondary power, not your first and only one weapon of choice

Nope, I just recognize a noob when I see one. If you think electric slash spam is OP or even effective then you don't know how to play properly.
