Feel my pain

YES

They FINALLY figured out why people hate Gravity Pole so much.

I don’t know why they thought nerfing the damage would solve anything

It’s not about the damage, it’s about the CC which is impossible to deal with and lasts for like forever

If you watched GVG videos, it was basically teams of Psychokino’s all pointing gravity pole at each other, and the first person to hit the other one wins. It was a bit silly. Not to mention gravity pole spawn camping and other such fun. I can see being upset as a Psychokino player, but the skill was completely broken for pvp.

I’m 100% fine with it as long as it still works the same against monsters. It’s hard enough killing things as-is!

I love all the Kino nerfs, since i gave up on the boring Wiz3Kino3 “meta” build long ago to do my scrub-but-fun build with only 1 circle of it. <3

Anyone knows how much essential Sure Spell was shown to be on PvP and GvG, tho? I can’t find room for a circle 2 Wiz on my build (specially if it is not a matter of being completely useless on those circunstances, otherwise i may sacrifice Rank 8 for it…).

@tomgo32000 Any chance you could test Swap for us? I’m curious how long this “bind” lasts for.

Thanks in advance!

Gwenyth · June 17, 2016, 2:36am

Lasts for 2 seconds.

megamanex14 · June 17, 2016, 3:11am

Finally someone who has sense and reason!
You sir have restored some of my faith in this meta filled world of sheeps/headless chickens.

tomgo32000 · June 17, 2016, 10:35am

Yes it lasts for 2 seconds, and I estimate the rate is approximately 30%.

discalibur14 · June 17, 2016, 3:44pm

So…is gravity pole still worth the channeling time in kTOS? it doesnt CC, damage is non existent since in pvp instance it will reduce its damage to 20%. 5 max target 45 sec cd. That skill was nerfed to the ground. i think even energy bolt can out-damage it.

Nerfed to the ground?
Gravity pole used to not do damage…

Jariu · June 17, 2016, 3:52pm

Now now, I love hyperboles as much as the next guy but let’s not be crazy shall we.

discalibur14 · June 17, 2016, 3:51pm

yep, because it holds which is the point of channeling. Now it’s slow. I’m just wondering if i still have to fear damage from Kinos.

It did damage based on your matk, but had no base damage. So it did a little bit! At least in iCBT2.

This.

If you check the thread there should be a handful of posts from me complaining around early January about Psychokino being weak…I then deleted my Psychokino literally days before they then started buffing it, and I knew the buffs were coming I was just so frustrated with how weak it is.
Hell I still have a character and a Companion both named “BuffPsychokino” on Ktos from those days.

Lol @ these guys crying about this vastly superior version.

tosmage · June 17, 2016, 6:49pm

How can anyone not see its really overnerf lol…The skill is literrally worthless now: no dmg, no cc, high cd and channelling.

The solution is simple:

Give it back the original dmg and cd (flame breath 2.0).
No dmg at all + 45s cd but keep the hard cc (iron hook 2.0).
