Why does CMM gain only one energy charge when parries Nimrod?

    I glanced his abilities and didn’t notice anything that would cause that.

    I read through his abilities and node buffs twice and couldn’t find anything either.

    Hey there, I believe I know what's happening here. By default, Captain Marvel only gains Persistent Energy Charges by blocking if the attack dealt physical damage, with well-timed blocks giving her an extra Energy Charge. However, all of Nimrod's attacks deal energy damage, instead of physical, so blocking those hits should give her no Charges normally, and only give an extra Charge when she gets the Parry.

    I just tested what you said against Doom. He also deals energy damage, but CMM gets two charges on parry.



    Electricity gives her Charges.

    Yes. It seems it might be broken.

    Could be an extension of the Parry bug as well.

    Magneto also gives her 2 charges on parry…. The explanation from zibiit seems a bit kabam-y in my eyes.

    It makes sense from her abilities perspective but that is clearly not what is happening in practise.

    Based on your screenshot, what is PROBABLY happening here is the fact that you did perfect blocks against Nimrod, so you took 0 damage. Therefore, you get one persistent energy charge from the parry but none from the physical/energy damage. Your other screenshots you are not doing perfect blocks and are taking damage, therefore you get the second charge.

    You can parry and receive 0 damage.

    That's my bad everyone, I had accidentally pulled up a much older version of her abilities when looking to see what might be causing this. She receives Energy Charges when receiving energy damage. I've passed the report about Nimrod along to the rest of the team to take a look at.

    Thanks Z!

    you're right tested against other champs with perfect block synergy and she only gained one charge

    While at it, same thing happens against Warmachine's sp1, and falcon's sp1 (no focus for him), and probably someone else I can't remember

    Not OP, but there are a couple ways;

    Through Teammates synergy



    Guardian synergy


    or

    Mastery


    ... two in a row and first charges? I'd bet on the Guardian synergy

    Just here to say it’s obviously not the guardian synergy. You can literally look at his screenshot and see it
    Good point! I didn't check for the charge icon!

    A r3 CMM has a high enough block proficiency for a 6* guardian to give her perfect parries when fighting against an opponent with a challenger rating of 130 which is what Nimrod has.
