Reconsider Concoction Flask Charge Usage
"Poisonous Concoction now Consumes 1 Charge per Projectile Fired from 1 Life Flask, if possible, instead of 2 Charges from 1 Life Flask. It now provides Added Chaos Damage equal to 3% of Flask's Recovery Amount if Charges were consumed from a Life Flask at gem level 1 (unchanged), scaling up to 11% at gem level 20 (previously 9%)."
This change basically kills the skills. Previous with 9 projectiles: ~6 flask charges consumed per second Now with 9 projectiles: ~27 flask charges consumed per second Now with 5 projectives: ~15 flask charges consumed per second You can regenerate ~5-6 charges per second on life flasks with some reasonable investment (which is like 5 points on the tree). The skills just won't have any flasks anymore in any prolonged fight, which will make them entirely unplayable, it's not even playable with 5 projectiles and a massive damage loss. I don't really understand why the skills need to be killed and made even more niche than they already are, basically only playable with very high investment into flask charge recovery. EDIT: Could you not just make it 0.5 charges per projectile, that seems more reasonable. Last edited by VaDe255 on Mar 31, 2023, 5:19:53 AM Last bumped on Mar 31, 2023, 4:26:11 AM

Pathfinder will be able to sustain this. This is healthy change because PC was abused by racers. Ben had like 2-3 dmg nodes on PC duelist and he was dealing sick amount of dmg. Was that fair? Don't think so

" no it won't even with ALL flask charges gained, life flask charge generation, pantheon, masteries, etc... you only generate about 7-8 life flask charges per second. +1 for field medicine. that is no where near enough to sustain. the only reason the skill did good damage was its main damage scaling is from a life flask, the easiest item to upgrade. don't balance things around racers. | |
Healthy change, rolf.
No one is going to play PCOC this league. It's only playable if you give up 3-4 flask slots and the sustain is still worse than it was before the change and 1 life flask. It's not a healthy change by any means, it kills the skill. |
