please nerf beam overload

fonz71fonz71 Member Posts: 346 Arc User
bean overload is far to powerful! i seen a guy hit another guy for like 40k damage! was ridiculous!

also, please buff science. it's not fair that a beam overload can hit like that in one shot and my gravity well can only do 10k per tic. :{


Edit: when i first made this post i figured 40k beam overload would be received as a joke. after all, 40k hit in todays 150k dps? where is the sense of humor i used to see on this forum? instead a bunch of trolls read the first post, make a conclusion based on that and feel the need to comment some idiotic remark. for the record, i know 40k is low.

the real joke is 150k+ DPS.
Don't know why it says i'm an ARC user. i will never use that TRIBBLE Cryptic!

    PVP?

    Spend hundreds of millions of EC so you can compete. PVP is Pay2Win.

    It was nerfed already. Did you miss the double tap days? Good times!

    Pfft....I've seen an HY Enhanced Bio-photon hit for over 300K once, and my Isokinetic Cannon easily hits for over 200K in a single shot.

    40K damage from a one hit is nothing, literally. Just go see what a proper feedback pulse build can do....

    also we need more hull/shield pen stuff. i was thinking that when i activate my shields it should crit all enemies within 10km for 20k damage.

    Another clueless citizen asking for the nerf of a well designed and well implemented (bug-less almost) skill. Hopefully, the staff won't listen to all of these silly cries of STO tourists.
  • fonz71fonz71 Member Posts: 346 Arc User
    what we need are some torpedos that proc a shield offline and hit bare hull... was thinking like 100% proc rate. add in additional damage for every enemy withing 10k.

    ^ this is my point. beam overload got a couple of nerfs over the years. people cried and cried. now it's all but useful. science is far more powerful now a days than beam overload ever was. lol

    Or an OP who thinks they're clever while sucking at this little thing called communication.

    if you don't understand sarcasm, me thinks your communication skills are lacking. j\s

    i think we need more procs.... what about a proc that when you initiate self destruct, everything i n the sector blows up?

    that's why we need more bacon procs... every time you activate HE, a pile of bacon appears next to your captains chair.

    Seriously, next time just save yourself the drama/click bait and say what's on you're mind.

    Yes, OP is the guilty party, implementation of written sarcasm was way off.

    First and foremost, beam overload is far from the most powerful ability or combination in the game. also, I've seen hits be dealt for upwards of 750k+. Heck i've dealt hits for over 150k myself. While it may not be the most common thing it can be done legitimately. There are ways of playing around virtually all abilities in pvp or pve both. If anything needs to be nerfed I can think of at least 3 other abilities that need to be nerfed before beam overload is even a thought. I personally despise feedback pulse and it used to be the bane of my existence. I still despise the ability but have learned to play around it. If you think someone is going to hit you with a beam overload, hit a reverse shield polarity, rock and roll, subnuc beam to purge it before it fires, etc. There's tons of options you have. considering some of the hits i've seen get thrown out in this game 40k is child's play.

    As for powers, beam overload deals all of its damage up front where as your gravity well deals it over time. In fact if you're doing 10k per tic as you say then your gravity well is actually going to deal more damage than his overload since you'll get at least 5 tics of damage per well, usually alot more than that in my observations. So his 40k compared to your 5 tics for 10k a pop, you're dealing more damage which would mean your gravity well needs nerfed and not his overload.

    Believe me I've seen alot of strange stuff and busted mechanics in game, but beam overload isn't one of them.

    4 mods on a weapon is so 2015. what we need is a beam with 6 mods. one of them could be [imm]. every time you hit you get immunity to the next 5 hits.

    It makes me sad that people still say dps isn't out of control in this game despite so many threads like this.

    finally! somebody gets it! <3
