Phantom before and now :(

If he gets the Kek, same as Pheonix, then what’s the point using him? the 10* (not 20) extra HP and VERY temporary overshield effect? Pheonix at least can heal himself reliably and moves a bit faster - also supporting his team with revives.

With Red Eye or Vass (Or possibly aimee) on free rotation a good chunk of the time, why can’t phantom be boosted to his original level of efficiency with all the spotting that will inevitably happen? As long as they removed the bayblade mutli-hit on mouse 2 swing, what’s the point of the nerfs? The bug was fixed.

For those oddities who actually tried to use him as a melee merc, they can’t 1shot vass anymore. Sniper-gameplay will be unchanged. … And seriously, make him hard to see when not standing still. - Just a bit. Noise isn’t terrible, since it’s a decent downside. I just want to sneak again without having to play visual freeze-tag with an opponent. (Makes me feel like a weeping angel with a time limit.)

Thank you so much for your valuable contribution to this discussion: it is in no way spam-y or insulting to those of us who actually care about the game’s well being and balance. ‘-’ … You are a benefit to a society, I’m sure. (Just not this one.) I get that you want your 250 comments, but at least fill those comments with something more insightful.

(Forgot in my previous post: the armor that Phantom gains might be useful in combat, but only for the short time just before he retaliates: comparing that to Pheonix’s heal which can be used any time makes the armor lackluster.)

@TheVulpesFox , it’s this hack and slash game under development by the dreaded shudders, Ubisoft. Very little information has been released so far, what we know for sure is that this game is using a very unique combat system for melee in general and might be a competitive title with the gameplay we’ve seen. Oh and it’s also samurais vs knights vs vikings, how is that not awesome already?

@Naonna @Amerika @Jostabeere , this thread is more or less just a memorial to joke about. In no way am I trying to bring discussion into this thread, this was created to make people chuckle to themselves. Pls just enjoy the joke while it lasts XD

The beauty of forums in general is that anything can be made into a discussion. You are basically saying that Phantom was strong and then became weak with your joke. But that’s a point of discussion and sometimes a heated one on these forums. So it might be a joke to you only but it is a topic that people can and will discuss and there is no rule against it.

If I made a picture that I thought was a joke that said something along the lines of how awful Skyhammer is I’d get a ton of disagrees and people saying he’s not and why he’s not and, well, you get the point.

Not many people argue that phantom is up-to-par with fragging mercs or even the snipers. - Again, the best option for phantom is to play freeze tag with his cloak and gun. In any 2v1 (with players of equal skill), even if phantom gets the jump on the enemies, at most phantom will get 1 gib at the cost of his own life. - Again: assuming the enemies are of equal skill.
