A plea for OG Ghostrider…

Dear Kabam,

OG Ghostrider has one one of the best designed kits in the game but he’s still doing 2016 damage . He’s a fan favorite and many of us would love to use him beyond Act 6. All it would take a quick little bump up of his attack and crit rating. He doesn’t need to hit like CGR lol. Just enough to make him a viable option again. It would a wonder Christmas gift to the community.

Sincerely yours,

OG GR fan…

    I wish they put the blade synergy on his base. 100% chance for all judgements, i love my sig200 GRto bits, but he is so unreliable unless i'm running blade.

    He’s got so much in his kit already that they won’t do that. Just give us some damage without taking anything away and I’m good.

    Would love a Blade buff too to just update his kit, but sadly that won’t happen without them severely nerfing his regen smh.

    Congrats on pulling a 5*/6* Ghost rider! (I don't know if he's in the 6* pool yet)

    He is, or at least he was in the monthly Cav event pool in the last few months - I got him but hes still on bench sadly

    I don't think a guaranteed proc of judgements is unbalanced at all. I think it's fine.

    Definitely not unbalanced at all. To be fair, he deserves a bleed on his sp1 and an incinerate on his Sp2 but right now, I’m just asking to just make him playable in Act 7 lol

    I would love to see him get a damage buff the rest of his kit is fine.

    I think an easy way to fix him would be to like the above poster said put the Blade synergy on base, let his sig allow for a fury every time you get the 5 judgements up or special 3, let it become permanent. Sig can be fury potency still and that way over the course of the fight he retains all utility and has ramp up damage. Maybe cap it at 5 furies or something. Maybe add an additional immunity.

    Also give him some increased power gain or make his judgments reset at 5 like CGR cause throwing sp3s to reset anything without any additional power gain is rough.

    He need an Ultron like treatment. Improve his attack damages and give him 100% judgement.

    GR is still better than people think he is. I don't mind Judgements failing occasionally when you're fighting heroes. He doesn't need to be 100% reliable all the time - if his judgements all had 80% Accuracy, then they'd be imperfect against Heroes but become 100% reliable against Villains. That'd be great for him.

    Then a bit of a damage boost in some way; for example (one or two of):
    • Roll his Sig into his base kit; and make his new Sig increased buff/debuff potency or a Power Gain ability (for example...)
    • Additional 10% Power Gain per active Judgement (resets after SP3)
    • Additional 10% damage per active Judgement (resets after SP3)
    • Permanent Prowess passive if opponent doesn't carry #Hero; additional Passive if they carry #Villain
    • Penance Stare damage doubled Vs non-Heroes and tripled against #Villains
    • Incinerate damage on SP2 (doubled or prolonged against Villains)

    Agreed on your suggestions but I'd also add why not inflict a stacking low level incinerate on the opponent with every special?

    Make him to villains as Crossbones is to heros.
    To me, that’s where they missed the boat the Ronin “buff”… how could you not add some sort of contempt/vengeance mechanic with him when fighting villains. Makes all the sense in the world and fits why he became “ronin” to begin with. Doubt they buff him again, but that would be dope and make him at least more of an option in specific fights.

    As for OG GR, I love the extra bonuses on each judgment idea. That’d be incredible. I just wouldn’t want them to touch his regen, which you know they would if they gave him that much extra utility.

    They're not going to consider touching blade until he's available as a six star

    I’d like to see his attack rating increase +750-1000 with every judgement applied.

    That would be incredible… IF… they leave his current mechanics alone. Don’t want them suddenly making judgments harder to get or (kabam special) somehow making where you have to choose between damage and utility

    I would like to see a upgrade to OG Ghost Rider to where he has a Spirt of Vengeance buff where he turns white flames. It would be a nice change for the character.
  • ShoNuff29ShoNuff29 Member Posts: 476 ★★★★
    That’d be cool. Just hope he’s on their radar for a buff.
