Killmonger Indestructible Charges Bug or Buff? [Under Investigation]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a-mg45mIn4M

I’ve had KM at R4 and this is not how the charges have always worked... Is this a bug or a buff? This would definitely push me to consider him for R5 if a buff.

Doesn't indestructible prevent damage from all sources? So that's how it should work isn't it?

It would be awesome if this stays permanent, but the way KM's indestructible is worded, I think it is a bug. "Ignore all the incoming damage from an attack". I could see that potentially being meant to ignore DoT caused by taking hits from the opponent, but not for stuff like Biohazard, hitting Abom, etc.

Please let this stay. It's amazing. Makes him even better as a defender and gives even more reason to use him with my duped 5* bpcw lol

Legit.

I think that this concept makes sense for Killmonger. Indestructible Charges are not the easiest to get (have to get all the way up to sp2) and not easy to keep either (get from a unique synergy, and are lost by even blocked hits). Therefore being skillful enough to be able to keep these Indestructible Charges for a reward like immunity to certain DoT damage makes sense.
However I think this should be limited. This should not affect Passive Degeneration from nodes like Bane, Flare or Brute Force (then again I have not tried this myself with these nodes). But I think that Killmonger's Indestructible Charges should negate all forms of non-Passive DoT damage. Basically it only deals damage if the DoT is passive.
Thoughts?

Prove yourself works like that where Debuffs dont deal any damage
All indestructible should work like that

I don't think it's a bug, and if it wasn't working like this before, then it's a fix. Indestructible has always prevented damage from all sources, even DOT debuffs, passive or not.

Why shouldn't it? No matter how it's worded, it's still an indestructible charge, so it should be able to do everything the indestructible from prove yourself node can do

Any news from kabam CEO?

DoctorJ

Threads like this are why we cant have nice things.

Does anyone actually believe Kabam would give KM an ability like this?

I'm all for all indestructible being equal and ignoring all damage, no matter the source, but the wording there does make a difference. I think it'd be great if they let it stay and just removed that extra wording since it does take skill to keep those indestructible charges up. I was just pointing out that the wording says it's not intended.

Kabam is professional company they won't do huge mistakes like that... and 5 days past. they already changed / buffed symbiot suprem after update

Well if it was a buff after seeing exactly what he can do with it it's now a bug and the fix is on the way lol..

DrBruceWayne

I hope this isn't a bug, Indestructible should work this way

I don't think some people understand how difficult it can be to keep these charges up.

For starters, if you're going to use this in fights like biohazard or against champs like Abomination etc., you're almost forced to bring bpcw with you, otherwise these things will hit hard. (Before you argue, the void synergy doesn't work fast enough and isn't reliable enough to purify debuffs in mass)

Second, he loses a charge just by being touched. Its not the easiest to keep those active, especially if you're going to depend on it to counter any DoT debuffs.

KM's sp3 this season is useless, his sp2 had been nearly useless. I don't see what's wrong w this fix making these charges work like every other indestructible charge. Yes it makes him better, but he's not game breaking.

This is an extract from the ver.21.0 release announcement:

KILLMONGER
Now has a separate icon for his Reverberation Cooldown.
Fixed Killmonger’s Indestructible Charges to correctly interact with Ability Accuracy.

Well, I guess this, very nicely, sums it all up.

Completely agree with you, it's not game breaking AT ALL.

Iron_spider1

If it is a buff any mod would have already answered to the post but since all mods are “afraid” to answer we might consider this a bug. Especially after what happened with SS. I don’t think any mod will reply. But we have to wait and see.

Helicopter_dugdugdug

Need confirmations asap asap

Gamer

It is a bug I’m pretty sure of. Don’t think it that hard to keep them op.

Panchulon21

It’s a bug and no one should have highlighted this.. as @DoctorJ said this is why we can’t have nice things

SilentKiss

On top of r4 to r5 issue. That shouldn't even be a question.

The_Soul_Assassin

@Kabam Miike @Kabam Lyra Please let this be a buff, and don't remove this. Luke Cage's indestructible ignores debuffs, as does Prove Yourself.

Will be nice if it stays like this
