Jolt is a terrible Arc Web replacement...

Jolt is way worse than Arc Web. I was told (by the community) that it was good, but its not. All arc grenades before chained on initial hit, now it must proc jolt then another grenade can chain, with way less damage and less range than before even after it was nerfed for no reason. I know the fanbase loves to disregard any complaint of nerf or under powered classes, but the amount of hostility and vile I recieved for an opinion (that was correct) was so unnecessary. It just makes people not want to engage with this forum.

  • You can see that most of or all of the comments are pve related. Yes arc web was way better for pvp, and jolt sucks in pvp. 3.0 sucked bad for warlocks. But with how the state of the game is right now its just better to play something else.

  • Thats only in pvp. In PvE jolt beats arc web any day.

            • Jolt weakens enemies and causes them to chain lightning off of damage... thats superior to arc web. Plus its not limited to only grenades. If anything is whimpy look at Flashbangs. Poor things didn't get any buffs outside of the Titan Aspect.

              • I find that pulse grenades with jolt is one of the best improvements in arc 3.0 with my striker. So much so I gave up my dunes (which work well with chain effect btw) for Armamentarium just to have two at a time, so I have no idea what you are talking about.

              • Honestly I feel like there just needs to be more means to jolt.... I think we have one perk, one exotic, and mostly grenades? I mean I'm still kinda working things out for my self but that's what it feels like. I mean solar we got multiple weapons that apply scorch and several exotics retuned to do it. Trinity ghoul, doesn't jolt, well, I mean trinity ghoul is an insane weapon anyway I grant you. Part of me wishes it just applied jolt instead of it's existing perk which is quite possibly too good. Risk runner? No jolt, again, really good weapon, but maybe just retuning how it works.... Symmetry? How bout this? "Arc seekers track towards your targets and apply jolt". Edge of concurrence? Forget the existing perks, all three of these weapons need to be rebuilt, have pressing the alternate fire charge the glaive with arc energy that jolts on melee or projectile attacks. Prospector, no jolt, world line zero, no jolt. None of these weapons blind, jolt, or apply amplified. Hell, the only exotic that really synergizes with anything is queenbreaker and only with an aspect that causes blinded targets to explode on crit kill

                  • Oh you think it's bad here, go post about it on Reddit. The hunter and titan mains there are so much worse because their moderation staff are actually asleep at the wheel and you can say whatever you want.

                    • Jolt is a BETTER arc web. You dont need multiple grenades. When you jolt an enemy they already chain to every nearby enemy...no need for second grenades or hits. And the chain does more damage than arc web and has more range.

                              With the fragment that increases the duration of lingering grenade effects storm grenade is pretty strong, does more damage than before. When you're amplified and jolt enemies the chain is a lot larger than arc web before. Also the new melee instantly jolts so you don't even need a lot of effort to get the ball rolling. Use the fragment that allows for arc nades to jolt, set up a proper ability spam build, and spam the nades and melees and you constantly jolt everything. The entire community wants to believe warlocks in arc 3.0 are weak but they aren't, their design is to clean the room up of adds. With amplify, jolt, and blind spam then stormtrance it's never been easier to wipe everything out. You guys want to complain just for the sake of complaining now. Also, we're the only ph@ckin class that gets bonuses when amplified like more arc soul damage or other things.

                            • Storm grenades were clearing rooms last night when I played. I like Jolt personally. The rest of what I tried was pretty lame though.
