Did Mags get a silent nerf?

An ally mate took up his 4* mags to deal with the thorns path in uc eq, and he's taking thorns damage! Am i losing my mind here? Didn't mag's hit with energy attacks like DS? When did that change? Both white and red do not mention energy attacks in their info

    How's he not bypass thorns? Doesn't thorns punish physical attacks?

    Highly doubt it. Mags is already garbage as it is so he wouldn't need a nerf

    From what I’ve heard on yt thorns deals physical damage but triggers from anything, not sure how true it is, just watch I heard on a bg stream

    Thorns interact with physical contact. Magneto does energy damage, but he still does physical contact with the enemy.

    In other words, thorns should work on everything that isn't a projectile

    You take damage from Thorns by hitting critical hits.

    What's up, Geoff77! Kabam's ways are mysterious and not always logical but Mags has always taken thorns damage.

    After reading up more (paying better attention hahahaha) it says it deals physical damage from attacks that make contact. I'm clearly an idiot here today hahahah
  • Maybe you're confused between fighting thorn and fighting Korg.

    Back in time Magneto’s sp1 was the most deadly bleed DoT of that time. His sp1 doing a punch inflict bleed and the scraps he throws inflict another bleeds, alsways 100%. They had to nerf him because it wasn’t “logical” for him to inflict bleed from his punch and decreased the % rate for his scraps attack to inflict bleed.

    He’s always taken Thorns damage. Nothing to see here.
