So Sick of trying to blink across a gap in PVE and falling to my death.
Also for any tool about to say the following don't bother.
"But blink should be used in PVP and if your using it in PVE then your doing it wrong and need to learn how to Warlock"
This line of thought is a complete moot point and people should be able to play how they want.

23 RepliesWhy do people always come out with this nonsense... "people should be able to play how they want"? It's complete and utter nonsense. There are rules and limitations implemented in the game in the interests of fairness and balance, if everyone could play how they want we'd all be running around with 3 exotic weapons, 4 exotic armour pieces and using broken combinations of everything.

5 RepliesBlink is in a very bad place and has been for the entirety of D2. They need to revert it to pre-nerf D1 status. Shotguns aren't broken in D2 like they were back then so it really wouldn't be an issue.

2 RepliesRemember in the beta when that had that really cool bug that let you click the right stick and you could hover a little and control your landing.... they should have left that in.... bring it back

1 ReplyI pretty much main it for a Voidwalker in general, and it throws me off when I use another jump on Voidwalker unless I'm aware I changed it for a reason. I would like a timer display, honestly. I'm pretty good at platforming with it, but with a cooldown it's difficult to effectively platform at a fast pace.
-
you are free to play how you want. if how you want to play is effective or not is a different subject.

I agree , its annoying af to try amd use blink in pve, even with astroscite verse and 100 mobility i find trying to use blink in the eaz for example almost impossible, i agree 100% once you hit the ground it should reset because sometimes you just need a 4th blink to keep the right momentum, i feel blink was better in d1

3 RepliesIf you can't cover gaps with blink, you're trash. If you die from blink, you're trash with it. Get better at it, don't expect Bungie to change it? They never will first of all, they suck. Secondly, it's fine how it is. Sincerely, a Blade Dancer.

Git Gud. No seriously

3 RepliesHave a cooldown timer just like Icarus Dash.

Edited by SgtMac31253: 8/19/2020 10:05:05 PMAs a warlock who uses blink almost exclusively since D1, here is my take.... I use blink as not only as a jump but a means to cover ground. If timed correctly it can be used to propel you forward. On the down arc of a hop you activate blink and you can blink forward, for those who don't use it. When I use it to propel myself forward in most instances I can blink and then blink again. But when I blink as a jump mechanic I have to wait after I land for at least 3-4 steps before I can use it again. I feel like for some reason there is a ceiling to the jump height that triggers a timer. If there is a cool down associated with blink I feel like it is hidden somewhere in there. Multiple times on different terrain I noticed even dropping from a height it will not trigger if I just blinked. If I didn't blink and I jump off a ledge I can still use it. Example: during strikes that require long drops to a bottom ledge I can most certainly blink just before the bottom and cuision the landing. If for any reason I don't stop right before the ledge and fall off, if I run off, hitting blink at the bottom is 50/50 chance of it not activating. My guess is there is something within the height threshold that prohibits immediately reactivating blink. Why else would I be able to propel myself forward progressively?

33 RepliesJust use the standard Warlock Jump. Blink has ALWAYS been a terrible way to get around in PVE. TLDR: You ARE being allowed to the play the way you want. YOU ARE JUST EXPERIENCING THE NATURAL CONSEQUENCES OF HAVING MADE A **BAD** DECISION. Because Blink was never intended to be used in the manner you're trying to use it. You are asking to be EXCUSED from those consequences.

1 ReplyYou're being flagged and flamed by the bungie forum bots golden hunter and Kelly green. Will probably get banned for witch hunting lol.
-
Yes please, it's so much fun, but is just God awful in pve.
-
This would be a really nice QoL thing! I only like blink warlock because i miss my blink hunter from D1 and the awkward "can't jump again" nonsense is grueling imo as well.
-
35 RepliesYou get what you are given. Remember, you stole that ability from Hunters.
-
2 RepliesBlink is on a cool down with 2 charges. You just gotta manage it ; it’s to stop you completely spamming the ability.
-
LOVE. IT. I might actually use Blink if they did this.
-
This line of thought is a complete moot point and people should be able to play how they want. Agree, sadly Bungie doesn't. It's play their way or you are playing the game wrong
-
Timers for literally everything it could apply to please
-
I don’t mind the cooldown, I just wish I could see it. Air dodge for example shows up whenever the player is on cooldown, I see no reason why regular blink cant have it as well.
-
18 RepliesBlink is a perfect example of how underpowered Warlocks are compared to Hunters: Hunter Jump (No Exotic) = Viable Hunter Jump (+Stompees) = God-Tier Warlock Blink (No Exotic) = Trash Warlock Blink (+Astrocyte) = Viable Blink should be viable by default, but it's trash w/o the Exotic.
-
Here's the real fix for blink...you blink in the freaking direction you are looking. just going body forward is why its terrible in pve. And maybe add a meter or 2 to the length of the blink
-
I don't see an issue with adding a cool down timer, like when icarus dash is on cool down. That said, if you main a warlock and use blink all the time you should be familiar with how long it takes to cool down.
-
20 RepliesBiased warlock is biased. Hunter jump also has many disadvantages...you are just too biased to realize it. Also..you never played hunter.

I love messing around with blink in pve and before you say its not viable in strikes and non jumping related pve its fun and allows you to get to places faster. With nova warp you can even skip the entire add clear room in broodhold and get all the way to the boss room. Its just fun, all i want is a cooldown timer hell im fine with it being a astrocyte perk.
