Thoughts on Scrapper rework

[@riotgun999]

The person who is in charge of reworking Tai certainly doesn't play this game enough. They don't know what Tai really wants in a rework.

[@Mitsugi30]

These types of thinks happens in games, maybe the man who reworked know about the class but not an expert, and maybe know about the what need the shock build but not tai. Is a ptr and we espect to they rerework the class to the en d of ptr or cancel the rework to a future

[@tiffanycui4769]

they don't know shock either. shock needs more crits/speed. they can add them in the tripod but they didn't. the damage of shock not good compared against slayer/glaiv but they decided to reduce the spec ratio (?????)@@Mitsugi30

[@Mitsugi30]

The rework for shock gone awfull too yes, but the changes rework shock trying to do it better. For tai there is no rework, a changed skill + renumbers damages to be lower. No comments to the new z useless in tai :'(

[@bakakubi]

Yoh, seriously thanks for the vid. Been wanting to see some actual analysis on new scrapper, especially for Taijutus builds.

[@speedfx7989]

They're preparing the stage for the new male striker, that's why they had to "visual update" her and mess with her skills :/
Who would care when everyone wants the new shiny toy and forgets the happiness that our good ol Thai Scrapper gave us with :D

[@mohamedaminemakdo6557]

they should give us a class change voucher with this rework :/

[@tiffanycui4769]

Ye I want to switch to wd

[@vaiossolakis3740]

I am really sad about this. was my main class . Hope they fixed it again. thanks so much for the video analysis

[@jeanpierrekhawamarmengol646]

Hey Jang if you compare parses with your tai as it is right now vs PTR changes, is there a big difference? Like it’s a dps lose or gain at least? Love your videos and sad for scrapper, I’m main scrapper and wanna cry 😢

[@lietome2153]

im playing striker main but when i use my alt tai scrapper, the skills and damage feels weird. i think theres something wrong with the class.

[@herbv3449]

honestly most of the changes have just been me scratching my head with regards to balance. They all seem totally opposite of what people were expecting. In regards to scrapper, its really sad to see SG has no idea how to fix it.

[@ben0179]

Thank you so much was waiting on your vid!!

[@gray7112]

I used to main tai and was really hoping this was gonna make a noticeable difference for the class but it’s just not what I wanted. Unfortunately she’s 1580 so I can’t drop her but I’m disheartened by this PTR so far

[@romnickfrancia2882]

A moment of silent to those folks who just build tai 😢😢😢

[@krayzdang]

imo, tai srap is the same, no buff/nerf, maybe a bit nerf from the new skill cd. just think of it as we got no balance patch for tai scrapper for now....

[@necipakgz]

I've been waiting for a rework for my main character scrapper for a long time, but my little bit of enthusiasm has completely disappeared. Goodbye lost ark

[@OddWoz]

NA just got a bunch of the reworks and I main scrapper. I cannot believe how much they ruined it. It’s no longer fun at all to play either. They had the nerve to call it a “buff”.

[@trevor4521]

As I use tai now, is shock effected by the ptr change? if so, is it worth to switch? been thinking about it

[@josepazelli2653]

Isn't the gauge meant for shock? Tai is a swiftness class, maybe they didn't think this to taijustsu, its just there so theres something.

[@Dlinga96]

If that is the thought process than why tai get 10 seconds in the identity and shock only 5 secs ? What can shock do in 5 seconds with slow and long animation?

[@tiffanycui4769]

@@Dlinga96😅Ye I’m a shock scrapper and don’t understand how am I going to do dmg within 5 seconds given my move speed is that low

[@Mitsugi30]

Almost u have in these 5 secs +20% attack speed. Tai got useless parslisis inmunity, only usefull for 1 skill that havent it 😂

[@alvnphmn]

Scrapper wins rework, but stills ends up losing still.
Going to take my scrapper’s gems away for the 2nd time. Perma lopang’d

[@Ryan-yx7qs]

summoners would like to have a word

[@nikosgavrilidi4923]

Haha agree, i've seen so many tier lists where they put spec sum in SSS tier, but i feels like its one of the worst classes atm, even my reflux sorc and hunger reaper doing fairly well compare to my sum.

[@phathoa8190]

I'm a shock scrapper, does this balance patch good for this style, because decrease spec stat make me really angry ... :(

[@javarisjamarjavarisonlamar4637]

seems like theyre forcing tai to go full swift and use 3 or 4 shock skills instead of 2 (guessing because nerf to tai skills the z skill gives free gauge for shock)

[@nikosgavrilidi4923]

I dont think that would work, the problem is dmg per button atm.

[@Mitsugi30]

But he has reason in the case of the full swift, going full switf is the only case where u spent all the yellow energy and use your Z for refilled and following pressing yellow buttons. Im playing 50/50 (more crit) and never had a yellow skill disabled cause energy, but trying full swift in trixion for comparision u have times with your yellow skill in grey.. To resume they are forcing us to play tai full swift, cause will have a better use for Z= more damage
Edit: same for "iron canon" cd tripod removement and the new skill long cd, not going full switf u will have longer cds = time not doing nothing = less damage

[@javarisjamarjavarisonlamar4637]

Exactly Mitsugi. There is no issue with energy when youre going 50/50 which is why people wont feel a need for the z skill. What I was theorizing (because I dont have access to KR) is that with full swift, we can push the horsepower to the limit and go beyond/compensate that with the z skill for its maximum potential. Iron cannon lost its CD tripod which gives it incentive to have more swift. RN we normally use 2 shock skills because we can comfortably afford 2. BUT if we can abuse the z to add another shock (maybe one of the new shock reworks), then potentially theres more damage. The patch notes did hint that they want us to use more shock. The only way tai can do more significant dmg is if all skills have shorter cd, ALL skills magically crit, or they buff the BASE DMG of ALL yellow skills . It might sound stupid/irrational but sometimes we gotta try the opposite approach.

[@nikosgavrilidi4923]

@@Mitsugi30 Im playing 1550+ swift 800+ crit atm, with 3% ms food and 10% yearning i have 39.9% move speed for RC. I can assure you that with lvl 7 cd gems its hard to utilize all of your skills because cd's are very low already, so this build just doesn't scale with higher cd gems. I dont think that new tripod on ICB will drasticly change that.

[@eddymalou1781]

Somehow they made scrappers worse, damn, on paper it looked good but i was wrong. Ty for the video

[@Mitsugi30]

Not the full case, but yes now u are force to play tai full swift to use z to refill your energy, and follow spaming a little bit. Whatching Jang J playing full swift there are a shorts moments that he havent yellow energy and pressing z he can do more for these 2 secs without energy. I play 50/50 and Z will be superuseless for me... Like i said in another comment Z needs to reset your yellow skills to have a use for tai

[@mumdacizbizciger9144]

What about Shock. İts get huge buff right. Counter is no longer Shock. So we get extra +1 dps skill i think

[@mrlegit404]

Appreciate the explanation. Do you think there's possible buffs to Tai on Tuesday release?

[@nikosgavrilidi4923]

All they have to do is just add some dmg increase to Z form and i think it will be ok, not a HUGE class revamp but at least we will get some dmg)

[@Xuch]

Man i mained scrapper ever since Lost Ark came to US, what the fuck did they do to my girl

[@edgarlu7590]

Could u bring 7 or 8 tai skills and just use ur identity to fill up your gauge?

[@jeremy5159]

damn is there no other ways to build taj? Seems kinda doom and im sad

[@tiffanycui4769]

Im shock scrapper main and still feel very disappointed. the Z abillity is a joke. I don't need 6% dmg buff while all my skills can keep that buff all the fight lol

[@tiffanycui4769]

remmebr for shock, z only last for 5seconds wtgf

[@travisl1759]

[@key7608]

Alright guys it’s time to move on, and switch to Wardancer now

[@odin_gamer_2748]

You said it, smilegate give a sht about acrapper bro.

[@Etniuh]

maybe new z skill is for boost the shock traning engraving and is not meant to be use for tai, they may think that tai is good enough for now.... as a scrapper alter main lol this is really good

[@Mitsugi30]

Im playing scrapper tai since amazon realease. I never care about the tier list changes or balances in the class. And now, hearing this words from u, knowing u were main scrapp in kr... Im really worried about for first time to my lovely class..
A rework that tranform a class to useless and more bored... No sense.
I expect they gives something usefull in the new Z for tai, like reset your yellow cds.. There are so many good options, but they didnt think about tai for this rework, we saw it...
I feel you😢

[@TheNumberF5ve]

is the RE rework vid coming out today too? :)

[@JangJ]

Lol maybe tmr...?along with surge

[@shawtys9525]

The Z is completely useless for tai. Plus they gutted the percentages on the engraving itself in exchange for stagger xdd.

[@tiffanycui4769]

Completely useless for shock. With no mobility how do you think shock can do dmg within 5 seconds? And the z ruins our rotation. When z is up you will find all skills in cd. And the rotation relies heavily on the reset of roundup. If it doesn’t get reset ok you die.

[@alvarorodrigo6480]

So sad i love tai 😢😢😢😢😢

[@ben0179]

Man J I hope they fixed it

[@rjacks3284]

scapper is in the garbage and its suppose to be their time to shine. SG are clueless

[@wambaas7987]

the class dont sell skins its hurts but its the point they dont care about the class its terrible

[@questir1]

Time to reroll Pred slayer they forgot this class is broken anyways

[@ryosaeba7594]

What about shock scrapper??

[@tiffanycui4769]

smaller nerf than tai scrapper due to the spec ratio nerfed

only less than 24hours, already a doomer video..?

[@necipakgz]

What else were you thinking? Scrapper was one of the first classes to come out, the long awaited rework was very sloppy and lame. How do you expect people to react?

[@genocide814]

20% more stagger?fking useless,as a shock main,we need more spec/dmg rate,and smilegate decided to nerf it,wut a fking joke
Compare to other spec class,shock scrapper are like garbage in the sewer,with low dmg / casting speed / slow movement,and look that RE ,are we joke?
Does dev actaully play scrappper in their own fking game?

[@tiffanycui4769]

I was very happy at first glance cuz I mistakenly thought it gives 20% damage increase for 10 seconds 😂

[@PainFL95]

just go shock guys much better 😝

[@Kalimdor199Menegroth]

Nah, shock is even more clunky to play, as you rely on counter reset to not lose your dps rotation. As stupid as these changes are for Taijutsu as well, Taijutsu is in a better spot than Shock is right now. It is Taijutsu or nothing with these changes.
