I'm an avid vision lover. I understand traps and wards that usually take 3 hits can be 1hit by melee champs using Duskblade. I've accepted that. But pinks need 4 hits. I feel robbed when I helplessly watch an enemy with an overloaded item just 1 hit my money casually in passing. It already has 4 unique attributes, last one being a double one, allowing melee champs to 1 hit any and all wards. Rito pls.
The most reasonable duskblade nerf ever suggested on these boards lmao, +1 and even as a duskblade user (sometimes) i think this should happen (or control wards even taking all 4 hits), b/c theyre the only one that costs $ the others are either free or from kit
What if duskblade was just deleted from the game.
What if in order to clear wards you had to buy a red trinket ? Not an item that gives you raw AD, ARpen , CDR and another source of damage similar to electrocute ? :O it almost feels overtuned to have all these elements in a single item based of 4x the same 350g item... hum
I think it should not mess with pinks at all. As in taking 4 hits like normal.
How about Duskblade just doesn’t reveal wards.
The buff bar is enough indictation an assassin should ever get. Let them invest in Sweepers to deal with vision.
Control wards shouldn't be affected.
I'd be okay with them requiring the full amount of hits. I buy the item fairly often, and think it's silly that it allows wards to be one shot. The passive has a decent cooldown, 90 seconds, but it's dumb that you can kill multiple wards. Because it allows wards to get one shot, if you walk into a heavily warded area, you can knock out 3/4 wards. That's an insane passive to have on an offensive item.
That specific passive also has a 180 second CD
what if it would be activated so it is not auto activate near wards or just remove it
You realize they knocked a good chunk of combat stats off duskblade awhile back and the 1-shot of wards was the compensation right? Personally I think that was a good trade.
It's also important to consider the following:
It's like asking for master yi to have his q cd increased by 0.4 sec. It basically means nothing in the grand scheme and is therefore a needless request. Furthermore, while you could argue that then it might as well be done to make you and others happy, it would likely result in some other aspect of the item being buffed in compensation... and who wants that?
HUH, a reasonable nerf.
i agree!
It'd be cool if it just revealed wards and concealed your presence instead of one-shotting wards (it's pretty much sweepers with bonus damage and lethality anyway.)
What if the counter-warding aspect of Duskblade was transferred to a support item, so supports could engage each other on vision control? It's already something supports are encouraged to do with control wards and sweepers.
Having the item hide an assassin from a ward seems fine with the cooldown, so they have to use it wisely, but if it was a support clearing my wards with one sweep it wouldn't feel as gross.
