This would also give him a way to protect himself from a pesky flank, which he really doesn't have right now. This also gives him something that other blasters don't have which is a root. If you can aim your broadside and shots well, you are rewarded for it. You can now have a combo for your ultimate this is lack luster in the first place. Raise his skill floor and his skill ceiling. This would help do what I want to do with Dredge. The change that I propose goes right in hand with my proposed change to broadside.īroadside now only has one charge, but a direct hit with broadside now roots the enemy for 1.5 seconds It is a talent that encourages spamming as Dredge, which is something that none of us like. He is losing no ability by this change, and is gaining a higher skill floor and ceiling. It also can serve the same purpose of broadside now. It encourages better placement of broadside and thought to where to place them.

This change would change Dredges game play from a champion that zones by spamming shots, to a champion that zones by setting traps, something that we do not have in the game right now. These bombs deal weapon damage (meaning they are affected by Caut, wrecker, etc.) and now have a cool down of 4 seconds. Once pressed again, the bombs will detente dealing 700 damage each (1400 damage if hit by both bombs). Here is my suggested changes.įire 2 bombs that now stick to any surface. It is only good for zoning off tight walkways for a short while. It is easily spamable and rewards the player for the enemy team playing like idiots. It is a crutch for bad Dredge players so use. We all know that broadside is horrible for many reasons. I am going to try to fix all three of these problems starting with Broadside. His low skill floor with a low skill ceiling. Now Dredges problems come from 3 main parts of his kit.

It's dumb reasoning, but that is what they gave. I talked with JayFlare, an AoC rep, and he said that they will not change it because too many people use it. Much of the community is crying for a change to scuttle but it will never happen. I would also like to say before this starts, I know that Dredge won't get any of these changes. I have played him more than any other character in the game and I know just how bad of a spot he is in. I can say this as a level 64 Dredge main. He is out classes by every other blaster in the game, and every other damage. As everyone knows, Dredge is in a horrible spot in the game right now.

Why cant i play dredge on paladins
