Energy Blast - how to improve it?

I think Monk is in a pretty nice spot right now but one problem, what the heck happened to energy blast? like…

  1. casting can be interrupted by normal attack (it used to not be) - very annoying
  2. damage is… ■■■■ basically lol - intended or bug?

lets have some discussion about what could be improved for it…

i was thinking, what if it becomes a channel skill instead? or something…

Just adjust the dmg to be a real % dmg and not as the flat amount it seems to have as bugged.

Kamehameha for Monk is basically summed up in this GIF.

Look awesome and all, but channeling completely interrupted by a single poke and damage is ??? I do more damage by auto attacking… and that is lvl6. kamehameha

LOL!!! BLOOD LAD, I forgot that anime. XD!
That scene… is correct. hahaha…

I’m boosting Energy Blast with a nice blessing and Breaking Wheel (with attribute) from Inquisitor. That combo deals a large amount of AoE damage.

They should add a SP scaling, or SPR may be.
That kind of skill, in each game it exists, is supposed to be used with your soul/mana/spirit/ki/chi/qi power, not with your physical strenght…
Monk in general, is supposed to be an martial artist that applies energy power to its skills. I won’t cry if they make it an magical damage skill with a different scaling, like that skill from Inquisitor, Clerics are hybrid!

This skill its going to remain nerfed forever thanks to the steparu videos (from back before when divine might was OP), they actually think EB was/still its OP and want it to be perma nerfed, little they know that the problem got solved since the divine might nerf.

Things this skill needs:
1.-Super armor attribute
2.- Vortex efect near the monk
3.-Damage increase (better formula), maybe scalling with STR/DEX or STR/SPR.
4.-Longer duration attribute by quckliy depleting your SP (Ex.5 times sp cost per second untill sp reach 0/or 50%, cant recover sp while using EB).

IMC definitely need to do something about EB… I really want to max 10/10 energy blast instead of 10/10 god finger flick. But right now 10/10 EB does nothing!

The only change I think need is higher damage. Befor patch was ok, 5 sec cast, nice AoE/ range and relevante damage.
Now is better just to spam Doble punch.

Maybe compensate with higher SP consumption but I don´t think it should be a magic attack

fix EB please T______________________T

i hope it will come in the next patch

  1. make the casting uninterruptable (except if you’re CC’ed) like before
  2. fix damage… it seems to be flat dmg right now without any scaling like the tooltip says

T______T

tested EB, it seems to have the “same” scaling as double punch(as one punch of the double punch lol) at max level for both skills
so…i think the skill is working correctly as the tooltip…i feel they should increase the scaling a little for EB really… so I dont know what they’re going to do about it…

EB is probably really good if u have 315 high trans weapon but then again, any skill is good if you have that weapon lol

It’s pretty obvious from most of their buff/nerf changes that IMC doesn’t understand their own game at all.

You don’t. Energy Blast got huge range and CC. What else do you want? Huge damage too? Do you think a r6 need something as broken as Dethrone was? lol

¿Do you even play monk? ¿Have you ever used monk/eb on pve/bosses?, the “CC” you are talking about its totally useless on PVE hence why the “turn off kd” atribute exists, only reason to KD with EB its PVP, wich is a total joke and there are too many skills that can already one shot you there or CC you in worse ways than the “KD” efect from EB.

Point of the thread is not to make it"broken" but useful :wink: from your perspective im pretty sure you are talking about PVP in wich monks are only taking EB at 1 because of the KD “utillity”, if u feel like thats OP well then i clearly have no words for you sir. TBL its a joke anyways, if you think basing all of your balance decisions on a half implemented pvp system its ok, well i think that speaks for itself.

Simple.

First debug :

  • auto-attack don’t interrupt the cast
  • damage debugged from 269 … to 269%

Second improve :

  • Slightly multiplicator increase

You are implying a bunch of crap I didn’t even say lmao. Just stay quiet and don’t embarrass yourself.
It is useful, it has a bunch of utility.
What you want is not how balance works.
People in this game just want their favorite class to be the strongest in the game.
Monk already got a bunch of buffs over the last months, they are very strong in PVE right now.
Just be happy with the buffs you already got.

Please make a list for yourself about the useful things that EB can do oustide of its KD’ing effect.

By the way monk its not good only because of the rework of its skills, (the only good thing it got was + duration to its debuffs wich was actually needed) its “good” because after the rebalance all the other good clerics died :), diev/miko died, kirivis/taoist died, druid same thing… and also, you are the one talking crap LMAO, monk its not my favorite class but i have played it since beta unlike you. People that come to the forums without knowing ■■■■ about actual gameplay are funny because they play tree of forum and come here to sound smart saying that something its OP without even knowing how things work. Energy blast its bad at the moment, needs to be reworked and we all know it, the “changes” we write here are not mandaroty things but ideas to improve the skill, you need to learn that on the first place. Overall im sure we’ll be happy if they changed at least the damage formula so it could be at least usable, but as far as i can see that would be OP for you since the skill its already “too strong” in its current state for you(somehow).

Last thing, if a skill has a low performance/its bugged or whatever by all means we should ask for a buff or rework regardless if something was changed before or not, that’s feedback, but im sure you know nothing about it because you are 100% biased and want to ignore actual facts. I have nothing else to say to you, be happy playing tree of forum.
