Nova Warp

I’m fully aware of the power of this entire super + it’s still strong neutral game, but this super has truly been neutered. One runs faster than it and if the warlock does catch up, it takes just long enough to charge it that they can escape the blast radius. I really don’t know what changes could bring it to healthy balance, but it certainly needs another look at. If anything, it needs a giant PvE buff, as it’s actually pointless there. Post your thoughts below, I’m curious to see others thoughts and opinions. [spoiler]Please don’t be toxic, just tryin to be civil[/spoiler]

  • I feel like that's typical bungie though, they introduce two OP supers with release, spectral and nova warp and then take too long to make changes - maybe they're trying to research some good alternatives for changes. but by the time they have looked into the community is absolutely pissed off and they end up nerfing nova to the ground. except, apparently spectral blades - because its still widely used in competitive and even qp and is still slightly op, no one see's nova warps in anymore... at all. Which is pretty sad it's a pretty badass super hopefully they can bring in some healthy changes like they did with the one eyed mask.

    • Agreed. They’ve completely ruined it, it’s over these days nearly as soon as you’ve cast it. Utterly pointless. What makes me laugh more is apparently they nerfed Spectral Blades too, yeah right! XD

      • Bungie needs to undo the nova warp nerf.

        • You know what is also mostly useless in PvE? Both tether paths. Majors and ultra's dont get supressed...all adds get flinched out of range for every add tethered....they walk away from the tether point really fast.

            • It’s absurd what they did to nova warp vs the tickle nerf spectral blades received. How was that patch balanced?

              • It's kinda sad how useless Nova Warp is in PvE. Cataclysm shits all over it.

                • It bothers me that the duration is so aweful but you got things that last 30 seconds that's able to kill you 2 times over (cough) spectral blade (Cough)

                  • Just use top tree nova bomb with skull. Nova warp will become a distant memory. I do agree though that they completely destroyed nova warp. Now with all the spectral complaints it further backs up the argument that nerfs are completely the wrong thing to do.

Sad also how they barely touched the eye mask after months of actually ruining balance.

                          The only thing strong about Nova Warp is its Handheld Super Nova. If Bungie nerfs the Handheld Super Nova to not one-shot, it would definitely have the worst neutral game ever. Before it got nerfed, if you paired this subclass tree with Contraverse Hold, you'd have an even stronger neutral game due to being able to survive shotguns up-close and shoulder charges. People played Nova Warp for its strong super and that goes for Spectral Blades as well. Once Spectral Blades gets the Nova Warp treatment, people would certainly move away from it. Nova Warp didn't deserve the blanket nerf it got and definitely needs to be buffed.

                          • Changes need to be reverted and reduce the duration slightly about 3 seconds

                          • Im supporting this but at the same time I’m not I like the idea of a roaming nova super, but I’m still kinda traumatized, how many matches I lost because one warlock activated his super My friend and I tested it when forsaken released in September and we were shocked how op it was But I’m supporting a healthy buff, just don’t increase the range
