Please don’t overlook Nova Warp this fall

To be clear; it’s only been underperforming on consoles because they’re limited to 30fps. Bungie announced over the summer they’ve got plans to lower (remove) the damage resistance of all roaming Supers this fall. Keep in mind that currently Nova Warp is still very good in the crucible, but as soon as you challenge another super you’re outright destroyed! This is because the charging animation takes way too long. I only want ONE of the two options listed below to happen once the damage resistance is lowered this fall. Option 1. Decrease the charge time from 0.7 to 0.5 seconds and remove slowed movement while charging. Everything else stays the same, such as blast radius and damage. Option 2. Make an Exotic specifically designed to increase the effectiveness (not duration) of Nova Warp in both PvP and PvE. Exotic Armor idea: “Erebus’s Shadow” (Helmet Armor) Dimensional Energy - Hits and Kills with Nova Warp decrease charge time and lower the cost of dark-blink energy for a short time (2 second timer). Move faster while charging (this just negates the nerf of slowed movement while charging for the duration of the timer). Think of Raiden Flux; each hit increases damage and duration. In this case; the timer only lasts 2 seconds and decreases charge time from 0.7 to 0.4 seconds, and dark-blink doesn’t cost any energy while the timer is active. The second perk only removes the nerf applied to it in update 2.1.4. This doesn’t make you move faster than before, you just don’t move slower while charging during that 2 seconds after landing a hit. This won’t break the crucible again because the duration, blast radius, and damage is unchanged. When in a standoff against another super; you start the fight unchanged, but after your first hit you can immediately follow up with a second blast, or choose to run away without using a huge chunk of energy. Please leave a comment below on how this could potentially break the crucible. All I want is for Nova Warp to perform much better in PvE, without touching damage or duration in PvP.
