I don't really understand GS proposed new skill. Please correct me if I'm wrong but if a unit is stunned, doesn't its aura automatically becomes inactive? Reason why I think this is because I have never ever gotten Sven BSK's pet to proc if Sven himself is stunned. So I'm not sure what benefit adding that silence Aura to the skill does. Silence Aura in case the rare chance that the Stun fails in pvp? Because it's definitely not useful in pve since enemies in pve don't have auras.
Again, as somebody else mentioned, the new proposed aura for GS is still weaker than Cybella's.
As for SS, I think it's more of a bug fix than a major buff (besides the stealth) because I would think that buffs should always be applied before damage calculations like what Vincent / Freya has always been like. Pretty weird / inconsistent for a buff to apply only after damage calculation.
Is Kane getting shafted due to the usefulness of his GR?
Hi! On the contrary, that is not true at all! Auras still work even when units are stunned! Do test it against persistent auras
As for SS, we are hoping to revamp him into a pure ATK focused hero as opposed to causing users to decide whether they want to build crit/atk.
Hi MiloD
Thanks for your clarification. Please, could I ask further regarding the aura?
When a target is stunned, Persistent auras still works, but trigger auras don't? Or both Trigger and Persistent auras still work?
If all auras are supposed to still work when stunned, how come my sven pet has never trigger to Atk again if Sven is stunned even if it's just beside Sven on one of his aura positions - it can't trigger itself and others can't trigger it to atk too.
Is it working as intended?
Has any player ever triggered sven's pet to Atk when the sven is stunned?
I use Sven alot especially during the last event where I needed to manual the master. I had to waste cleanse pots to cleanse Sven when the Chicken Lord or Sora stuns him to allow pet to trigger.
I might be wrong again but honestly that's my impression / what I have been experiencing.
Hi Pat! Great questions! I went to do some research to ensure that I'm actually providing accurate information, and I believe you may have struck gold!
This has to do with the trigger aura mechanics itself! I will use stun as an example for the triggers and conclude on Sven. See if you can figure the rest out yourself if you're still interested
When hero attacks, trigger everyone in aura to stun... means that the source of the stun can come from all the allies including the hero itself.
When hero attacks, trigger others in aura to stun... means that the source of the stun does not come from the hero
When allies attack, trigger this hero to stun... means that the source of the stun comes from the hero. IF the hero is stunned in this case, the hero will be unable to stun the opponent
Sven: When allies attack, trigger this hero and pet to attack... So if this hero is stunned, the primary command cannot be fulfilled anymore and hence the secondary command: trigger pet cannot continue, causing your pet to not trigger. Important find, in countering Sven and all that yknow!
