Longshot vs Collector ??

So seeing the info on Longshot, he has a base ability Accuracy of 300% .. and it can only be reduced via actual Debuffs.

So I immediately wondered .. how does he interact with the Collector ?

That is, the collector (passively?) reduces the opponent's ability accuracy, over time ... so ... Longshot would be immune to this, correct?

This would potentially make him a "good?" option vs Collector ? (not sure how good .. but *shrug* .. )

    I wouldn't say immune. But he will take alot longer to loose his abillity edge. Which is a nice bonus. If you can play him right that is

    well .. does Collector apply an actual debuff? if not, he should be immune .. if I'm reading that right.

    Not that I'm aware of. But remember that you'd still have to deal with the Collector's specials either way which is the real killer. So still not a great Collector counter.

    He should be immune to it, or at least heavily resistant, it’s slightly decrease the chance for his stuff to trigger

    Honestly if your talking abyss collector or even act 5 you probably wouldn't last long enough for that too matter anyway unless you're a beyond god tier player

    I'm only really concerned with Act 5 at the moment .. and yeah, the sps are tricky, but lasted long enough in past for the ability accuracy reduction to become apparent .. so having an option that avoids that is just that . an option ..

    obviously we'll have to see what kind of dmg he can put out and such ... and other than that he might not be a good option for collector, however, I'm mostly just trying to understand his mechanics, what affects it and what doesn't ..

    So the rest of the negative nancy chat isn't really helpful .. ;)
