Archangel silent nerf

Is it just me or his debuff rng is not at all as same as used to be in the past?
I used to put on around 7-8 neurons any fight and the last two weeks or so I can't remember a match where I got over 3 of them

This community throws around the words "silent" and "nerf" way too casually.
It's frankly annoying.

It's all RNG.

We've had multiple threads on this. The TLDR is that you're just super unlucky. He's fine

Silent nerf is replacing people that think rng is fixed by Kabam.

Please say this again.

Its true, silent nerf for sure. It’s been happening ever since Kabam added this thing called “RNG”

Prof Hoff incorrectly uses the word “nerf” so likely will the clickbaiters

7-8 consistently? Is that common? I'm rarely ever able to get more than 4-5. Maybe you've just been running way above expectation and now you're seeing regression.

You only have 7 neuros…

Heavily reliant RNG champs always feel "off" when they aren't getting favorable numbers.

Some days you are the dog, others, the tree.

That was a fix. Not a nerf. The Mod who commented that it was working as intended (who is no longer here to defend themselves for that matter) was mistaken.
No Champ was meant to bypass Stun Immunity, unless it's clearly stated.

How many times can you defend that. So anytime Kabam wants to silently nerf anyone of anything even after an official employee confirms its working as intended, is to say their spokesman was wrong.

Synergies help. Apoc can pause neurotoxins. White mags improves ability accuracy.

Why am I seeing this exact same thread every week??? lmao

No, that wouldn't happen. Also, of all the things that Kabam does wrong, silent nerfs aren't one. In the 9 years of this game, Bishop is the only silent nerf.

You can't sit there and tell me that AA wasn't bugged when he was stunning stun immune champs can you?

It was a bug fix regardless of how it happened or what a random MOD on the forums said. We really need to move on from it.

I m starting to believe Kabam believes in “Work hard in silence; let success make the noise.” seeing all the silence related posts.

Also AA is my lead champ, be very sure before posting.

About as many times as people keep misrepresenting the facts.

If what the employee said breaks pre established rules, then yes

Ever heard of bad rng no change was made you just got unlucky I have this all the time it’s annoying but can’t change it aa built on rng if it’s bad he’s not gonna do the best if it’s amazing he’s gonna be amazing

AverageDesi

If you want to make a thread make it about the frigging archangel bug of AAR

"Only"? Lmao. 7-8 Neuros is fairly average in my experience, even in longer fights, especially if the AI won't cooperate properly.

The answer to that will be silence as it always has been

World Eater

I’ve heard that Kabam is silently nerfing silent nerfs. There was no announcement about them silently nerfing silent nerfs so I’m quite upset about this.

Are you saying AA with or without horseman?

Because, without horseman, I typically only manage to put and maintain 3-4 neuros in an average fight. So you complaining about no longer able to consistently reach 7-8 is like, mindblowing to me.

The N in RNG stands for Nerf 🤣

Sigh. "My _____ is only happening _____ often now. The magical being known as Kabam has changed the chances of ____ happening to what I don't want, even though that was originally possible and my current circumstances could still be explained by the numbers falling within the correct, original, proscribed boundaries. NERF!" is what I hear when things like this inevitably come up.

Let me state that asking about specific things in game is amost never frowned upon within the forums. This is a great place to learn, and even occasionally shed like on an unintended interaction (bug) that might have appeared in-game. However, it is most definitely frowned upon to begin such a question with "Kabam is intentionally screwing us for no reason in this particular way. I have proof that in no way could be explained by the game functioning as intended." Instead of jumping to the far end of the nerf train, instead start on the positive side of "so, have I understood these interactions/game mechanics/etc correctly, or is _____ some sort of unintended change in the game?" Even if Kabam were pulling some maniacal scheme, this would still bring your question to light. It would not however incite a small riot for unnecessary reasons.

It's odd how certain numbers and processes in this game are presumed by some to be inviolable and perfected like any consumable crystal contents, champion ability numbers, and champion crystal contents, when all of these have been biffed by Kabam in the past. Without encountering a scenario proving that the numbers are what is listed and without more information, how can you have so much trust in them?
