Valiant Force Forum

As much as I agree with some of your suggestions, the on-attack buff to genesis mystics is just hmmm not necessary. 
What we only need is lower cool downs (2-3 Turns) lowering the scale damage of the 6turn skills (or not??)

What I am afraid is VF will turn a blind eye and just release new mystics with better and lower skill turn and disregard genesis mystics and valiant kiera in the process. 


EDIT: What I am more afraid is VF will take it a year, or more than a year, to realize how bad their mystics are and follow-up with a buff when mystics users have left the game already.

Hello, MiloD, please at least acknowledge the booming threads asking for justice for at least a decent mechanics for the mystics.

So guys what do you think?

On my defense, the On Attack effects are tailor-made to help both in PVE and PVP. This would allow players to raise a unit with high mag that is PVE capable. So that raising a mystic will also pay off just like raising a champ/shadow/archer with high atk stat.

And the damage % based on MAG are already lowered compared to the current damage output of mystics right now. Currently, a kiera elem deals 180% of MAG burst. My Kiera (19k MAG) only deals 5-8k damage on typical guardians. Imagine how much can a 80%, 100% and 120% multiplier do when it comes to lower MAG stat Ronan and Zedd?

On-attack skills are unique to elves, and just like wildmutt said it will make elves (Taegen especially) lose its uniqueness. It's better if mystics in general get attack damage addition from mag around 35-65% and even better if it have low % but pure damage.

And about the value adjustment I was referring to aura % since some of them seems to have odd value into them... for example Ronan rune magus is fine with 15% mag and 10% def. Since 5% def means nothing when you fight 17k atk rangers.

But I have a very different opinion about aura improvement so this is just about opinion.

Hmmm. Maybe you were referring to what I did with MW Kiera and Zedd aura? I meant them to be specifically archer counters. Instead of wasted turns of wasting for CD or dying from an archer crit, they can dish out damage in the hopes of killing 1-2 of the archers. This can compensate the lost opportunity of casting a skill because of CD and glasscanon limitations.
