Class Advantages

in General Discussion
I've been observing something recently, within the last couple months, and I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed. I'm finding the Class Advantages are playing a larger part than before. I first noticed it with Guillotine. She seems to Life Steal and inflict Bleed much more frequently against Cosmic Champs. It feels pretty unilateral across the board. GP's Bleed, Voodoo's Loas, etc. Does it feel like something is different to anyone else, or have I just not noticed as much before? Believe me, I'm not trying to generate suspicion. Just sharing what I've been observing. Let me know if you've noticed the same. Thanks.

    I've noticed this and have been chalking it up to the amazingly complicated challenger rating and diminishing returns. Something is funky after that update.

    I don't think it came after 12.0. If it did, I wasn't aware. I've noticed that procurement is greater with a Class Advantage. In a sense, it makes sense. I'm just curious why it feels different for me recently.

    It has ALWAYS been like this due to the old system of Percentages scaling up and down from class advantages

    It's ALSO the reason that SL Shock and Drax bleeds are so powerful

    And probably why Angela NEVER got a bleed

    Can't say I agree with those statements. They're powerful without Class Advantages, and Bleed would make Angela a tad OP. Lol.

    Class advantage doesn't increase ability accuracy.

    SL shock scales with his combo an drax depends on how many furies he has to be powerful

    That never happened. Class advantage increases your attack and reduces enemy's attack. Nothing more.

    Class advantages increase ability accuracy, but not directly. It is because of challenger rating

    I think it does on some node buffs too.
