Cleansing beam (calm discussion)

I’d like to bring up the topic of the effectiveness of the cleansing beam, i understand many other people have done this but i fail to take them seriously they they provide no proof, and just use caps the full way out (i understand there’s been like 2 good posts but there’s been like 50 bad one’s plus i’m bored and broke so why the f*** not xD)

So i think the main problem is the speed combined with AOE, i believe if they kept the damage it wouldn’t get over nerfed but lowered the speed and AOE players which are fast at microing can take less damage plus means the beam stays competitive.

Currently i believe it’s the best leader ability as it can just nuke (which is good for lore but bad for game) proof of it being pretty broken is that it boosted shipmaster from trash tier to glorious god tier all due to that damn beam (combined with his sneaky partner in crime displacement)

Now the last thing i want is a complete -Yoink- storm on here with people getting insulted, all opinions are welcome and if you see something you don’t agree with don’t proceed to insult them, explain why you think otherwise.

Thanks for reading and i hope 343 takes this post into consideration <333

This man is going places.
Good places.

Love how you had to put “calm discussion”. I’ve been getting a beat heated with the topic for like no reason and TBH your post has made me think about that.

That being said I feel they should just lower the DPS on buildings. IMO it does its job on units is doing what its supposed to. It wipes armies that aren’t moving out of the way, though it is a bit fast IMO. So maybe lower the speed a bit.

Just gets a bit infuriating when people just get abusive to devs that work sooooo closely with the community, and against other members of the community that raise valid points.

And i agree. it had helped raise certain leaders to be powerful again, making them viable once again further improving the balancing of the game. just the speed of it and no direct counter, it does get me personally not sure of everybody else quite annoyed when i watch my army get wiped and there’s nothing i can do to counter it.

I’m honestly not sure how I feel about the beam.
I’m glad it’s getting loved as its one of my favorite powers but the T3 destroying a entire base was wild and being able to strip a base wth level and 2 was crazy.

I think the damage needs lowered on all levels but would it be fine if it had no speed buffs?

I think it should get a nerf against buildings and should be more expensive

Is it really that bad?
