The New Patch Nerfed Leap Slam
|
It's not in your patch notes, i'm not even sure if you guys are aware of it but leap slams damage went down by 50 percent or so. My damage using the same gear since before the recent two patches with Leap Slam is halved. Not sure why that is. If you guys nerfed it than you nerfed it and i'm not going to whine about the development changes you guys want but I can't find any patch notes on it and it almost seems like a glitch from changing ground slam or something done by mistake.

" This was something I noticed as well. Although there was a new Leap Slam animation, my 3.4k Leap Slam lost 1.2k DPS and turned into 2.2k DPS. Also the cast time seems to have lengthened again. I used to be able to cast Leap Slam .49secs and now I cast it at .61secs. I'm thinking the new patch reverted the Leap Slam cast time to it's old cast time pre-9.12 patch.

It's in a patch from a few days ago. ("Slowed leap slam by 20%, it's still faster than it used to be" etc)

" No, I've taken that into account. I noticed that THIS patch, 9.12n, made Leap Slam lowered in DPS. This was noticed today. For Ranger build tips, tactics, and critiques, visit this thread:

It looks like it also made the delay for lightning warp larger, but the cast time faster.

I think they fixed the dps display. It was only counting the casting time for dps, which is completely wrong. Perhaps now it's counting the flying phase also.

Flying phase IS the cast time.

" I don't know exactly what is what, but if you time the entire skill, it's longer than the displayed cast time. At least, it was the last time I checked. Build of the week #2 : http://tinyurl.com/ce75gf4

So a ninja nerf to Leap Slam? Not cool. If I didn't have Faster attacks attached to my Leap Slam, my LS would be even slower.

I use leap slam on few characters and I see no change. But I never check the listed dps on this skill. Sometimes I get silly and jump over the monsters until they die and it doesn't seem weaker to me. So even if the listed dps changed the real dps might be still the same.
