GA Proposal (in General)

Increase the damage cap. Yes, you heard me. Increase it. Then change the cap to be based on total damage done by one minion per round, rather than on a per damage instance, so 500K of FB over 5 minions, 5 hits of 100K each on the same minion, and a 500K SG result in the same retaliation damage.

That's sounds pretty good, but my only problem with lumping fireball damage together for GA is that it would take out some of the diversity between spread and non-spread spells.

No. That only helps spread damage attackers. Single target attackers, like any melee tank, will take more damage. And more GA is not a good thing right now.

I actually feel that the face CoC and FB can't break the GA cap is fairly balancing. But the fact that centralized damage spells still can't break the cap, means that it doesn't matter which spell you use, GA treats them all the same since the cap is unbreakable.

If anything I feel the centralized spells should have an edge over GA, if a change like this would occur, it'll be such a boost towards spread damage spells that it'll outshine spells like SG and MM.

But right now, it doesn't matter what you use for the most part. SG to CoC to MM. GA treats them all the same.

"No. That only helps spread damage attackers. Single target attackers, like any melee tank, will take more damage."

Maybe you didn't put enough thought into this but, according to what JS said this would actually help melee tanks. Most melee tanks have DX advantage and some pth on their weapon granting them at least a double hit, this would mean that their damage would actually go up and have a greater chance of breaking the cap. Also, melee tanks and mage don't have nearly the trouble breaking the cap that ranged attack users do, of which the spread damage is, FB and SoD. The only person that this would be hurting is SG and MM users.

Something should be done about GA. With all the damage reductions we have experienced lately, GA is more and more effective.

Too effective.

I agree, DM is almost mandatory at this point as GA is becoming so widespread/efficient.

Being pro-choice I feel GA needs to be FIXED!!! (so annoying)

RBF+minimal damage (like FB at 20k or a exbow or something) = GA pwned.

HP = RoBF/minimal damage pwned...

Decay and a RoBF = HP pawned

iBananco [Blue Army] April 12 2009 8:13 AM EDT

No money and debt to loan shark = items pawned.

Winning a very profitable contest giving millions = No money and debt pwnd
