  • I wanted to wait for the Boreas "adjustment" to be confirmed for Global Server in Watcher of Realms before making this video...but now that it has, here ya go. I did my darnedest to build nearly identical Boreas copies of my Global Account (pre-nerf) and my Test Server Account (post-nerf). I then do some extensive PvE testing Gear Raid 1 and some PvP range testing in Arena. All-in-all, this is good news as this was far less of a nerf than people had worried about. Big thanks to Mitchell my editor - this one was hardwork. Thanks guys and enjoy :D

    It’s definitely a solid nerf I don’t think that you can really argue with that seeing the numbers here. I just wish that people would have held back on the hate a bit until seeing how he actually performed. I think as content creators we have a bit of a responsibility to try and do our best not to stoke the flames of anger in the community. The last thing we want is to find ourselves in a burnt out community quick to anger.

    • @fastidious_gg
      @fastidious_gg  4 месяца назад +9

      Totally respect your opinion but I fundamentally disagree. In both my videos I actually went out of my way to say the rework was necessary, read well, and that absolutely we should wait and see before setting the world aflame.
      I do not regret for a second however expressing my outrage over their messaging and communication. It was tone deaf and really blind to the obvious backlash there would be from people who felt cheated and robbed. Even now still, I strongly believe they need to come forward and take ownership of this kind of thing to make sure it doesn’t happen again (or ensure it happens as infrequently as possible) before even more of the community sours and ditches the game.

      @@fastidious_gg I think you’re definitely right. It’s a hard balance to find between pointing out bullshit and angering the community. I just feel like there was more anger then warranted. Even though you definitely said the right things, I just know that I saw your video used as an excuse for a lot of unjust anger and hate. A thing that you have very little control over of course. But tbh wtf do I know you’ve been in this community a lot longer then me and my wife, our asses only have 57 subscribers lol. I just really enjoy this community and want what’s the best for it, a feeling I know you also share.

    A better comparison would be me. Just passing gr1 19 literally hours before nerf. Seeing what my rans looked like with dominance. Fast and efficient. I had marri and Ai on right side with boreas where you had him. Could clear that stage in about 30 or 40 seconds. 2/3 or better wall left.
    Post nerf same run dominance on:
    Same run takes well over a minute probably min and a half. His shortened range means he can't proc on Ai further ice bombs. Also means the enemies on edge get a head start. Then when they are hit by boreas they are hit weaker. I'm getting a lot of stragglers.. that don't get killed off during his ult. That don't get proc during his ice haven. Takes at least twice as long to kill off final boss. Wall gets down to 1/2 or just under sometimes. And the new in danger of failing message. Still clears but no where near as fast or efficient.
    Respectfully fastidious;
    There's more here when you factor in a lot of the minutiae details and utility in his package.
    Ps I have an entire suggestion box rant back and forth w them about this and all of MY findings. I opened their eyes 👀 to some things. Ending with them saying they are going to send this to development for testing and considering. That's doubtful surely but I indeed have the thread w timestamps in my suggestion box as I type this comment. If there's a way to send that to you and you would to read it...let me know and it is yours to take a gander.
    Carry with what you do as you are the greatest. But the utility isn't there as it was before. Damage dif is neglible as you showed. But wait there's more. ❤

      Boreas is great, maybe too high damage compared to other mages. So why not JUST nerf his damage? The damage was the problem. The range and freeze isnt a problem in Arena, if you dont have the damage to kill mobs in 1 hit. Without his ult he is trash in Arena. Passive takes far to long and makes me lose many battles to Hatsut that instakill waives with the click of a button. You cannot control boreas AoE. She is OP many places. And dont start talking about some Lords...
      And what about Dolores? She is used in every team everywhere! And she is a epic! WAY more valuable than Boreas. You would not br able to do 50% of the content without here. I support nerfing his damage, but not more than that. Range from 4.5 to 3.5 will ruin so much. Now he is just good, while people spent thousands for the great hero he was, and has now been scammed.

    My main issue is that I skipped the Gwyndolin limited event, despite spending more than enough to have been able to get her, to instead chase Boreas. He was that good. Is he now? Considering pre-nerf the top AOE arena teams are already dropping Boreas and using Gwyndolin, I'd say no. Now I just never get to use Gwyndolin because I got another Khamet. Bad trade.

    One of the main problem with boreas in aoe arena, have more to do with arena than boreas, that he is just good at exploiting. This is mainly for gold 2 maybe 3 and down. The strength of the monsters is tied to the defending player BP. Meaning you build your boreas as strong as possible and build the rest with the goal of hitting an overall bp where boreas can still one shot the enemies. It makes it extremly diffcult to beat a boreas team If he the timings right.

    Sadly that only shows that a A3 Boreas with Endgame Gear is doing alright.
    I would have loves a A0 Boreas with some Golden or even Purple gear. Maybe with some Mythic gear that does have bad sub stat rolls.
    You know, new or midgame player gear.
    THAT is where they realy nerfed him.
    A3 is where he gets the huge +50% to his AOE, his Frozen Purification.
    If you dont have that, I am pretty sure that things look different.
    His A3 is crazy good, no doubt about that.
    I didnt want this specific nerf for the new players or players that just got into the midgame.
    I have enough other options. I also have GR 1-3 beat on 21 and can farm the best gear.
    But I also know there are a Ton of people not in the Endgame. And THEY got hit. THEY are the ones who might quit after finding their favourite toy broken.
    They are hitting the new fresh life blood coming to the game.
    Lets hope that this is not the first of many bad nerfs (looking at the potential poisen nerf)

    I have to ask... Why, on a game with a forerunner server that was essentially a years worth of free beta testing, and is now free testing for a few months ahead, and an independent test server, in an era where games regularly sell access to their Betas would you honestly expect a company to do its own testing when it can release now and patch later? That's the industry standard for more or less all games at this point mobile or five star big company and has been for half a decade. You really only see inhouse testing for anything other than bugs in small to mid indie studios. I'm not saying wanting them to do it is wrong, and that they shouldn't but it's an unrealistic expectation to think for a minute that any video game has a goal that is anything other than release release release as fast as possible.

    Well, your freeze extra damage wasnt booked, so you lost 15% there, then I dont even remember what other damage multipliers you missed.
    Favouring nerfed Boreas.
    You also have some less attack and crit damage, and vs enemies with high MR defence, that really matter.
    Favouring nerfed Boreas.
    Mari with 1.1 attack interval. Do we know that the threshold isnt what counts?
    Potentially favouring nerfed Boreas.
    Test server Pantheons, higher level than other.
    Favouring nerfed Boreas.
    It really makes no sence that nerfed Boreas only does 5-6% less damage, when the damage effectivness of the skills are at 80%.
    It should in reality be 20% difference. Old Boreas does 25% more damage. 5-6% Is just wrong.
    Every source that could benefit nerfed Boreas does so. Making the difference from nerfed to not nerfed bigger.
    A propper visual test would rather be done on very low stages, where the defence is low. Both wearing no set, and only having pieces with 60% attack and capped Crit rate. No crit damage.
    That fixes the gear issue. if you are gonna reset him anyways, why would you not use the 6 books? That would have made the 40% freeze damage go to 55%, making him paired with Mari even stronger on pre-nerf.
    Favouring nerfed Boreas.
    Also, just make a quick notepad note with the damage diferences from max skilled every skill, instead of jumping back and fourth 20 times. Makes it really confusing.
    You are a math guy, so when a skill does 80% of the old damage, that isnt a 5% damage difference, thats 20%. That just shows you all thiese multipliers you tried to match, comined to about 15% damage wrong, favouring nerfed Boreas.
    Also, in actual teams, you would have Rage generators. Both Laurel and Hollow increase that rage by %. Not flat amount, making the 200 cost buff in reality only becoming 100, roughly with Laurel 50%. Diminishing the ONLY buff he got outside of heal reduction 4 sec.
    Also, the fact that heal reduction applied more with New Boreas is true, and can be luck.
    Also, you know that once you kill mobs, the overkill damage counts. So lets say nerfed Boreas barely didnt kill someone, the overkill would be more. So hard to compare.
    Just a few things you should consider.
    I love Boreas, so ofc I am bad that he is nerfed. Range nerf is the biggest problem imo. Damage dont matter that much. And why tf would they nerf his freeze duration. They are making him more of a freeze chap, but nerfs his freeze XD
    One last thing, you should have showed the range difference 3.5 to 4.5 makes. It will nuin a lot of teams, even with power of dominance. Also much less viable in Arena.

For numbers people like me, I dont really need the compareson run. Look at the skill difference. And why didnt you put in the 6 skill crystals? Every single source that could benefit nerfed Boreas did. Every single ult proc should in reality do 175%+40% vs 225%+55%. 215% damage vs 280% damage. That makes Old Boreas do 30% MORE DAMAGE on Ultimate procs that freeze. That is a lot!!!!!!!!!! It feels like you are trying to trick us to believing that nerfed Boreas only does 5% less damage.

      @@fastidious_gg You showed everything, but it all favoured nerfed Boreas slightly, combining up to a 15% rougly damage difference. With your damage test that showed. You know that multiple small increases multiply and becomes visible.
      Old Boreas did 307k +70k damage with max crit. While Nerfed Boreas did 277k + 27k.
      That means Initial hit only did 11% damage difference, wich makes no sence when the skill damage difference is 450% vs 355% total, witch is 26.7% damage right?
      Then there is the hidden nerf in damage that comes from freeze duration that decreases, that will reduce the massive damage that scales with the freeze duration.
      Then there is the Chilling blow passive that you didnt book, 40 vs 55%.
      Then there is the hugh difference, that when you actually watch the fight, Boreas kills the first waive, leaving nothing to damage, meaning nerfed Boreas takes longer, but will catch up in damage because he still hits the remaining enemies. They have a finite set of HP. Obviously the damage will become very similar! The test is just horrible. Is there a boss that can be frozen? Damaging enemies that cant die will prove the difference. In content that is actually hard.
      I bet the real DPS difference is closer to 30%. 27% difference in main hit, 37% difference in the massive damage. And probably half Massive damage, due to half freeze duration. Wich is 100% difference.
      The real damage difference is insane.
      + reduced range. Wich is insane.

    The hate about the representation of boreas nerf was at least in my opinion super harsh. Your reaction sounded like it could have triggered a nuclear war between russia and the USA. It was probably worth the views and outrage but at the end boreas deserved the nerf. You had some points like the amount of resources that has been used on him but at the end it is a game where nerfs and buffs Happen. There where some good adjustments for example: shamirs buff but Nobody really talked about him. So stop defending the people that spend a lot of money because at the end it was the choice of the spenders. And please take into consideration, that boreas was absolutely broken and still is post nerf. So people actually knew there will be a nerf eventually. And even I as a low spender maxed him out without spending a single Euro into boreas and did not regret it.
    This is my honest view of this topic.
