I have a 7* R4 SIG 200 PATRIPAPI. (Just to add some credibility to my opinion). Most know this by now because of my constant Patripapi glaze.
REVIEW:
Patriot had the smallest of changes to his kit out of the 3… but for anyone who has seriously played Patriot, you’d know that his basic attack damage is great post-reversal at high/max ramp. It looks like he’ll be able to do his high basic attack damage for longer due to the increased fury duration. HOWEVER… they didn’t increase his precision duration… which was already much shorter than the fury passives duration… which means his precision will still expire wayyy to quickly, especially with passive AI… which kinda takes away from the affect of the increased fury duration…… his crits are where ALL his damage is at… so the fury buff duration being extended won’t mean as much as it seems. Why tf wouldn’t his precision passives duration be extended?!?! Kabam knew what they were doing with this. 🤦🏽♂️
Extended vulnerability debuff potency is great for him to deal more damage whilst you’re ramping up, to ensure that you’re burst of max damage will finish the job.
THE BEST THING ABOUT HIS BUFF:
THEY MADE PATRIOT’S UTILITY MUCH LESS NICHÉ AND EASIER TO ACCESS 🔥👍🏽 He now gains his Steadfast passive with just 3 DEBUFFS against all champions but mutant champions… whereas before, he could only gain the steadfast with 3 debuffs against Science champs alone. This is insane utility as he will basically be able to block ANY AND ALL UNBLOCKABLE ATTACKS ALMOST NEARLY KIND’VE CLOSE TO INSTANTLY! Never worry about any unblockable attacks with this guy. This is awesome utility. He also still has his miss counter buff on his parries which is insane and easy to access utility too.
CONCLUSION:
Kabam gate keeping Patriots max damage potential longevity by not increasing the duration of his precision debuffs. This sucks and they thought we wouldn’t realise 😤 His basic damage is top tier at max ramp but it won’t last nearly as long as it should.
He got an awesome buff to his utility and basically extends his utility to 5/6 of the other classes instead of just the 1/6. GREAT 🔥🔥🔥
An understandable buff that didn’t go overboard. He is nowhere near being Niché now. Increased damage. NO PRECISION DURATION EXTENTION. F**K.
That’s it.

EXTRA:
This is just from what we see on paper. Kabam listened and moved his utility from his awakened ability to his main kit (which is where it always should have been.) We are yet to see his new awakening ability, but it seems like it will just be the same but with less in it. Hopefully there’s a little extra stuff in there but it looks like it’ll only be ‘increased precision passive potency’.

If I misunderstood your doughnut then my
bad. But if i’m right….
wanted to see some evade counter and increased ability power rate per resolve debuff
I hope I pull a Patripapi soon. He got that Dominican aura
Guardians guardians!!! 🥀🥀🥀
Only recollection I got about it is chef Ramsay calling someone a "F... donut" on an episode of Hells Kitchen
