Rimrock is useless after nerfs

[Garbhus]

Tell me who was the genius of the development team that thinks a dragon purely melee should be slower than dragons that have greater range? Put the rimrock in free rotation and guess what no new player can get top kills.
The reason is simple: Rimrock no longer has any utility in the current metagame. It's time to increase the gap closer it or at least let him with a high speed that will permit the use of passive damage normally.
You should invest in making melee dragons more viable , it is already getting repetitive every time only launch Dragons with ranged attack.
PS: Before you call me a noob look at my record and see that I am not a bad player rimrock and if I'm complaining is because the dragon disproportionately is much more difficult to use than others.

First, Garbhus, you are not the only player who has mentioned that the Rimrock, which used to be a top choice among players, is no longer favored by many. I have asked for the Rimrock to have his 10% slow with his horns returned many times, only to be told that it would make him OP again. I wish you luck in trying to persuade the developers to undo the nerfs they assigned to him.

And in no way is he a slow dragon. A base speed of 106 is above average. Landslide is a strong movement attack that also inflicts slow.

It could be made a bit easier to use, but just a tiny bit.

And if you look in the Balance Suggestion section you can see the proposed buffs for Rim and others.

In my last game is 24/1with rimrock, but I realized that anyone with the same skill can use back pedal and easily avoid the damage of the passive.

Ive had similar games. Ive never said that the rimrock is useless, but without a VERY strong offensive weapon (e.g. doom shards, bladebiter, etc.) he has no offesive skills really. Imagine, for example, if people were told that the solreigns breath attack "shouldnt be relied on." Further, a melee dragon is supposed to damage with melee. The spinreaver sure does.

IMO, with the current Meta, you're best bet is to try to catch players unaware, rather than starting the fight and getting the majority of the damage. By doing so, will often net you the kill if you quickly deal the damage. Play smart, don't play hard. If they're distracted, fly and hit them on the side or behind... they'll have to turn around and that would screw up who they'll take out 1st. If you're the only one to fight a single dragon, then try to circle around and find an opportunity to get in closer, and landslide if said opportunity is present, once you hit, unload everything and fall back if you're taking a bit too much damage and circle again. Fight like a shark.
