Is this what we're doing now?

If you guys are going to do "buffs" like this Venom the Duck thing via relics and side quests, I'm here for it. Who's up next?

A thought crossed my mind as I was testing VtD at r2 today. The relic is obviously not a statcast so I wondered if they released it as a battlecast instead and well, so they did

A few months ago when statcast relics were first announced there were a good chunk of threads claiming Kabam was probably planning on just discontinuing battlecasts permanently and sticking to statcasts only due to the complexity when it came to designing battlecasts. They took a lot of time and work to design because they essentially added stuff to certain champ's kits whereas statcasts are way way simpler, all they do is boost stats.

What I'm getting to here is that battlecasts might not be done for after all, this might be a test or a glimpse into what the future might hold for battlecasts. Exact same concept just a different approach, every battlecast will target one champ and one champ only instead of multiple ones, effectively eliminating the complexity that came with having to design relics around multiple kits. If this is the direction they're taking battlecasts in then I'm all for it, the one thing I will however beg Kabam to not do is monetize them because that would be a very dumb decision.

Drak and a zarg nut relic.

Gives invisibility + other useful benefits

I actually like the idea of moving synergies into basic champs' kit, and even if they think it would make champs too op, at very least move the synergies into relics so people could benefit from those in bgs

Black Bolt rework👑 💯+ instead him relic, it can be a Lockjaw relic / #inhuman relic👌, the relic will grant him energy damage potency on his combs & introduce Energy vulnerability passive with a chance of dex & fury passives

Agreed.

I so nearly suggested DDKK in my comment, too.

What would you suggest as an action?

- Roll in his synergies with Elektra/Spider-Gwen?

- Increased buff duration?

- Increased regeneration rate?

- Rapid combo building?

- Striker grants or refreshes Rage debuffs?

Some really good ideas in this thread.

Would love to see specific champ relics that add ramp to ramp up champs. Adds required hit combos or persistent charges needed to ramp a champ. Starting each fight already ramped …that’s juicy and pro player!

Would also like to see relics that can add a single immunity to a champ. Would open up more champ combinations againsts specific war nodes and other fights.

i.e. start fights with 999 hit combo on Aegon

100 hit combo on G99

400 hit combo on OG Starlord

And so on morning star

Effectively making ramp champs more usable in other content

I would even pay for it!

TLDR;

+ Hit combo ramp relics

+ Persistent charge relics

+ Immunity relics

Letting Aegon start with a 999 combo would be insane and way too OP, but I do like the general idea of smoothing out some of these ramp-ups. I think OG Star-Lord needs more than just to start at a combo of 400, but G2099 is a great champion to do this for. One thing I've always hated about her is her need to finish the fight with an Sp3 to save her combo for the next fight. When it works it's great, but there are all kinds of things that can mess with that. If she got a little tweak via a relic that made her able to save her combo in other ways, that would be amazing.

I could see relics possibly adding consistent charges to certain champions as well. Let's say an Apocalypse relic that helps him out with some extra charges in Battlegrounds
