I'm so excited! Thing is, idk wether they got the idea from this lol

 

Well, hunters are gonna go extinct I guess.. im fond of pairing hunter with freeze/hammer, so kinda sad ngl

It should not be that bad, it's not guarantee that when you use your OD, the enemy has repair kits ready and in the current scenario of TO, there are too many status effects at every point of the game. It is highly unlikely that my repair kit will remain unused at the medium of the battle because I would have already used it for many other countermeasures. But let's see the situation when the update actually kicks in.

Could be a problem with drones that reduce repair kit cooldown, like Hyperion. It could become quite OP.

Yeah, Hyperion too, along with the Dic. mech isida abuse.

The thing is that hunter OD also apply EMP so it will remain unchanged since emp prevent supply use. The only scenario were hunter OD would be kind of useless (exept fir jamming effect) is if the ennemy has emp immunity.

Hunter will be affected since they mentioned the immunity will have a duration.

Paladin and Hopper will be partially affected - on their "offensive" abilities. Same with Crusader a little (AP).

But Hunter will be totally hosed since it's OD relies entirely on status effects.

It could possibly be solved by shortening the delay before OD takes effect for hunter, so it would become much harder to counter it with repair kit or other means like stun striker.

Hey if you use Hyperion/Mechanic you cannot use the saint triple drones, that boost your DD DA SB. That a con already.

Lmao I don't think you get it. Repair kits will grant immunity to ALL status effects. EMP won't make a difference.

His point was that once you get EMP'd, you cannot get rid of it with repair kit, as it is disabled.

It is true though of course, that you can manage to press repair during the OD's delay and get immune to EMP that way.

Are you sure that if you press the repair just before receiving the status effect you won't get it? Or maybe it will stop the repair and  give the status effect?

As it was explained in the Vlog, you receive an immunity similar to Paladins OD  for some duration, so yeah, there should be no effect applied.

Maybe hunter could be allowed to bypass it?

Too many ppl would complain that Hunter is "OP".

Unfortunately. ODs pretty much worst addition to the game IMO.

Well, ODs are only bad cuz of status effects. Excluding hunter, of course. I mean, Paladin without status effects is pretty balanced eh?

I think EMP, AP, stun status effects are worse tbh.

For me, it was close between ODs and status effects.
