Fix The Smoke/Vortex Crutch AKA The Wombo Combo
It kills way too fast and it's unfair because there's no counter. Don't deny it hunters, it's pretty op.
Edit: We did it 450 replies and every comment is someone saying one of these 3 things:
-Firebolt is more op
-But...but us hunters have to sacrifice a Melee and grenade charge!
-Lol
Yes Firebolt is op, but so is this smoke issue. I don't know why smoke is considered a Melee because it is throwable (that's a word deal with it) but anyways...
[spoiler]bungo plz[/spoiler]
Edit 2: 600 replies. Now everyone is still saying smoke if balanced because it takes a "Melee" charge. Let me tell you something.
Is it truly a Melee if you can throw it like a second grenade? A simple fix would be to buff smoke but make it a grenade, as well as buffing vortex.
Yes, I main a warlock and I'm aware of Firebolt being op. That's not the point of this post however.
Edit 3: Ok yes I am a bit salty about this because we lost our 8-0 trials game against smoke/vortex abusers. I knew it was annoying in the first place but losing an entire trials match because of that is so annoying. Call it op, a crutch, exploit, whatever. It needs a change.
/end rant
Every comment is the same. Read the post and if your comment isn't the same thing everyone says, I'll actually comment and care.
[quote]It's hardly an exploit but yeah, it does need a change and anyone that says otherwise is blind to it.
Just add a simple timer between when you can toss the smoke after a grenade or a grenade after a smoke. Simple fix.[/quote]
-PopSkimo
That's a good fix too.
Should I be proud or ashamed that my first post to hit 1k comments is a salty bitch post? Thanks I guess.

1 ReplySalty, you are

How about you just play the game like the rest of us and NOT GIVE A SHIT.
-
This should stay just for being called the wombo combo
-
If they nerf firebolt combined with viking funeral and touch of flames, you can nerf smoke and vortex, as long as one is in the game in its current state, the other one should be aswell
-
I Rekon let hem have it but make tht actual mele hit 50. If they use poison or something
-
21 RepliesFirst of all, you have to hit someone with both to make is useable, and it is easily avoidable either blink or shade step
-
[quote]It is throwable[/quote] Yeah like that's the only throwable Melee in the game...
-
Wombo combo? The -blam!-? And stay outta the smoke. Easy fix. Or do you jump into wizards smoke in pve too
-
People are now crying for a fix? It's been in game some TTK dropped
-
I disagree with your opinion
-
3 RepliesIt's not the smoke or anything in particular that bother me about hunters but the utility and usability of all the sub classes I wish was same for Titans and I guess warlocks. Each Hunter subclass brings such unique tools (invis, shade step, blink, throwing knife, smoke, Etc.) I mean shoulder charge is a start for the Titans but defender and sunbreaker needs an ability that makes them standout and be fun beyond nades and super. I'm sure warlocks feel the same.
-
I call it the wumbo combo.
-
I wish I gained money for every time someone just jumped out of my smoke grenade.
-
"There's no counter" Other than, you know, walking away?
-
Did, did you just say firebolt is OP? #triggered
-
Wombo Combo; sounds like a Chinese takeaway :D
-
It's not a bug or glitch it's smart use of available skills so no... Go away
-
2 RepliesSure Nerf that, but give us over shield melee,fire bolts that burn to one shot,self resection,axion bolt, and storm grenade. Then we will be on the same page.
-
Smoke/voidwall or vortex = NOT BALANCED= BUNGO PLS NERF
-
Throwing knives are throwable and do way more damage than a smoke bomb. You can also have 2 of them without sacrificing your exotic armor
-
As far as AOE is concerned. ... If anything has a timer for AOE before it disappears, anything thrown into that AOE by the SAME player should cancel the previous 1. That would stop people from whining.

2 RepliesEdited by FIRST AXIOM: 2/9/2016 12:34:18 PMreally dude? do you know how many times ive lost my 9th match in trials because of a full team of self res warlocks throwing firebolt grenades? you get two grenades each right off the spawn EVERY round, you get overshield on melee and you dont even need to be close to the enemy to melee them! That right there is a deadly combo especially when you factor in self res and warlocks using crutch guns like mida and last word and here you are complaining about how a combo move that can happen once about ever 2-3 rounds is op ? when you guys literally abuse your own grenades and throw around 6 every round in trials! NOT to mention the fact that your grenades are one shot kills because after you are hit you just burn to death for 20 seconds -_- (maybe a titan can survive but i know for a fact that a hunter can not survive) If smoke grenades get nerfed it should be that the effects last 5 seconds longer but they dont stop people from moving/jumping ect That way we can still use them for something at the least That and the firebolt grenades need to be nerfed so that they do 5-10 seconds less of burning time because its just retarded. Plus as someone who uses invis with my smoke bombs id love to gain an additional 5 seconds :)

No. I think it's a fair trade off for the super long range thunderstrike and the solar grenades. If anything it's the only thing that balances it out. These subclasses have to be good at something right?
-
1 ReplyNoone complains about the 2km range on lightning grenade?
-
Everybody, everybody!!!!!! Lets just ask that hunters, warlocks and titans all have exactly the same supers, grenades and melees, and make sure that every perk is exactly the same with every guardian!!! Because with all the nerfs that muppets like OP are asking for - this is what we're going to get.
-
Firebolt needs nerf .... Nightstalker is fine because it doesn't burn for the whole match. Thorn wasn't even that bad. Just jump out of the vortex and smoke range.
