If I spec into Pack Leader and press KC, I deal more damage.
That is all a player cares about.
My damage profile remains the same. Press the KC button to deal majority of my DPS.
Right. And mechanically all stomp is, is more damage bolted onto Barbed Shot.
I know how it works. I am aware it is a separate damage instance.
My question to you is why does the player care beyond numbers? What does it do for me mechanically? Nothing.
I explicitly responded to your post prior to your response to Lucaviane. What are you going on about?
Also you ignored the fact that PL has a talent that does directly enhance KC itself.
You seem to think Pack Leader is exclusively VH.
People who do this always have incredibly weak arguments to begin with. This is no loss on my part.
My argument is above. You picked out an error to nitpick at. So yes, you ignored my entire argument to argue, which is why people blocked you the first time around bro.
You ignored all my other statements about the survival tree.
You ignored the slower/less useful nature of the pet autoattacks for survival.
You ignored the fact that kill command is a builder not a spender for survival.
Sure, but saying that VH will do AoE when it doesnât is not productive.
And yet, Stomp doesnât crit when BS crit, and itâs damage is not magnified when BSâs damage is, which is important distinctions to make.
Well right now is a great example where someone could be confused and think mechanically it can AoE or that the VH damage ability procs off of KC effects such as Deadly Duo, so yes there are mechanical implications to keep in mind before people assume things.
Nothing else was wrong, so why would I talk about the rest of the post? Do you need me to go line by line and tell you that I agree with you for validation? If you clicked the link I sent you, I already talked about the SV tree two weeks ago.
You accused me of not âhaving the same energyâ towards one type of feedback versus the other. Donât worry about it. Youâre back to block for me. Better make more alts.
This person is not Lucaviane.
My name is Galedron. I am a different human being. You keep quoting me about things Lucaviane is saying and I donât know why.
It is, because people clearly get confused and will think things that modify Barbed Shotâs damage will modify Stomps damage, and be confused when it doesnât work the way they think it does. If someone has a tier set or hero tree bonus that, for example, increases barbed shot damage by 20% and they donât make a distinction with separate damage events, that person could get confused and think that the bonus would also increase stomp damage by 20% if they think the way you are describing them.
Yes I am aware? They said that feedback about things like tremos / tornados is not valid feedback to give, and that people that give feedback about hounds/owls is also not valid.
I said people on this very forum give that sort of feedback, and linked to you giving that feedback.
To be upfront, I donât see anything really unique being suggested. Itâs the same feedback that most people have already given. Myself included - here. Weâre all just waiting for our well over-due turn that this point.
And I specifically have to call out " Barrage baselined. (Address the issue of Survival not being able to use this talent)." - No, just delete this button. Itâs not viable for raid or m+ content. The last thing I need is randoms doing is pulling half the dungeon and causing wipes or people just getting annoyed they need to angle themselves to not pull everything. I donât know any Survs that want to click this button so not sure where you got this idea from. Itâs as poorly designed of a button as Steel or Explosive Trap.
there is nothing unique. people are spamming this forum with threads repeating the same thing all alpha cycle. itâs just needless clutter. people are giving feedback about things that arenât accurate.
what is blizzard supposed to do when they look at this forum for feedback and see the same two people making the same exact thread 15 times and half the posts in the threads are giving feedback about things that arenât true? well, they probably will just write off coming here for feedback at all and just stick to the alpha thread
The difference is scaling factors, which could otherwise more than double its damage.
VH scales with solely AP and your damage mods.
KC scales with AP, pet damage mods (bundled also into your own), and KC damage mods.
What buttons you press and when depends on their damage, just as what talents are competitive depends on the net damage bonuses they produce, so those scaling factors are generally going to matter.
Ignoring the hunter class is like Toyota ignoring the Corolla.
Yes, theyâre generic. And I absolutely understand why designers find them boring. There are way more exciting options. But theyâre literally one of the most popular products.
Anyone who neglects their most popular product & just relies on customer inertia is being foolish & short sighted.
At this point itâs not even a bad design decision, itâs a bad business decision.
