In one update you killed Awk nova PVP. It was hard enough to catch and fight classes like hash/dosa/ect. You destroyed her catches and movement, slowing her down, and limiting range and movement. You reworked her to the point of she doesnt play the same and its like learning a new class thats less impressive than what you played before. After testing skills, I feel like I would just be holding S most the time until 3 movement skills are off cd which now are slower or dont reach far or both with little catch ablity and my block getting nuked. Im not the reroll type, I find a class I like and put all I can into it and now half of the class feels dead and to reroll is losing years of progress. I can deal with nerfs but to nerf+completly destroy what awk was for the charcter is actually crazy. PA, you are a masterclass in destruction of your players, even more so your vet ones. Its harder to relearn and reroll for someone who has done it enough times to be done doing it over the course of many years let alone now relearn a class that I knew well and feels worse than it did the day before...my drive to play this class and such bdo is reaching 0, the only thing that keeps me logged in is succession hence why I say half the class is dead to me. The fact nova discord is just filled with negitive about the nova rework says a lot, how do you screw up this badly? Its actually impressive. Open season on awk nova, most easy class to kill in game.

Yup killed the only class I played for years

What is even going on. Are these changes spread across teams that don't communicate and/or play the classes they're touching? Devs should 100% be foreced to play these changes in pvp and pve for 40+ hours before changes go live. 1 week their job should be to live as that character before they start pulling levers.

I got furious with that, i was on a pause, came back this week, when i went to grind with her, i though my pc was lagging, i thought that i have gotten bad from the pause, but no, they just killed the class, it is garbage to play awk nova now. it feels like they removed katarina's passive (from league), its not the same class. and not worth playing anymore. Terrible rework, horible QA team, one of the worst I've seen. It took me less then one hour grinding with her to see that she was shit. heck you can lower the damage, but what they've done is took her character and what makes her Nova. Now it is just a new shit class. I have no words to describe what the balancing team did to her. they've been killing the fun of the game for some time, but i never expected them to make a movement character move like shit.

Today's update...

"[Nova] Break Orbit, Accel: Break Orbit - Changed so you cannot use these skills if under a weight penalty. "

HAAHHA, A BIT LATE, DON'T YOU THINK? CONSIDERING AWAKENING IS F USELESS NOW? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Good one, PA.

I got to 64 and 95% with little to no EXP buffs, just grinding NOVA, and recently tried Succession.

+20AP, constant, not split between two keybind sets, and Conditional Accel. Basically +70DP at all times. Strongest Guard in the game. Frontal Guared or Super Armor on BASICALLY everything, and everything without it is like a .3 second animation anyways. Skills effect enemies behind you, to your side, and across the map in front of you, about 4 times the AoE as Awaken. You don't have to risk enemies Snap Locking 180 at you, Back Attacking you during a Server Desync to 1 shot you, you can just AFK in one spot until the Bot NPC spawns to kill you. (It's happened twice now, from how lazy I'm grinding now...)

Absolutely hilarious. But hey, I've started Fishing. Professional 10 to Guru 11 now, in the last few weeks of not playing the game.
