[Temlar skill] Radiant Destruction need nerf!

BXR_Lonestar

Radiant oppression doesn't need a nerf unless you give templars back something else that has been nerfed. To be honest, I think templars are in a pretty good place both PVE wise and PVP wise, but having radiant oppression be where its at is part of the puzzle that makes it work.

If you nerf radiant oppression, then you are going to have to buff one or more skills to make up for the damage loss somehow. Unnerf Jabs, buff Solar Barrage so it gives 10-12% extra damage to class skills while active, increase the damage of the burning light passive (or any combination of these), or do something else to replace the damage output that the templar would lose if you nerfed the execute. Unless you play templar regularly, you just don't know how much damage that execute is accounting for.

Radiant Destruction is just fine as is.

You do realize this thread was from back in 2024. Clearly there has been no nerfs since this post came out so the devs didn't listen, and they did make changes this update, but IMO- as a Templar main- they were buffs/improvements not nerfs.

they made radiant oppression dodgeable right? that's a good improvement. last time i played the only people i saw on templars were zerg surfers who spammed that skill even if you're full health. that skill definitely needs adjustment but they actually need to buff that class so it gets used by people other than mindless zergling bots. id also like to see all the changes to jabs reverted to before they ruined that skill, especially that awful animation that looks like it was done by some intern that's never touched a computer before.
