Rip Adula's Moonblade

[Themcabel]

since Adula's Moonblade now does less damage for FP cost than carian slicer and Pebble or even Icecrag I guess I'll go back to spamming those 3 spells since if I want frost I just use Ranni moon or icecrag,
it was nice while it lasted
Edit:
Best damage I manage to get with Adula's before and after patch with:
-terra magicus
-regal specter +10
-80+ Int
-Snow witch hat
-Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear
-GRAVEN-MASS TALISMAN

Tested on the Dragon close to the grace Dragonbarrow Fork

Before Patch:
8851 Damage in 2 hit
Frost 1 time

After Patch:
7005 Damage in 4 hit
Frost 2 time
(the best I could get at close range after 10 try but most of the time its closer to 5000 Damage or 6000 if in Mainhand)

in comparison:
Carian slicer
used 16 time for 64 Fp without terra magicus
did 8412 Damage

"Upward and downward adjustments
Adula's Moonblade - Decreased the power of single cast and improved performance so that the blades and frost hit more consistently and continuously. Increased cast speed at lower dexterity."

cast faster and build frost faster but do way less damage

Carian slicer needs a nerf imo next.

It already has the downside of having pretty low range. Plus its comparable to using a fast melee weapon that costs FP to use.

Imo main reason it was often used by people is because its quick unlike most spells that are much harder to use due to wind up and cast time length.

I mean tbf, Adula did an absurd amount of dmg for an AOE oriented spell that has pretty low cost.

Its FP cost is moderately high. I will agree that dealt a lot of damage for an aoe.

[MJ711]

yup. sounds about right. 40% nerf.
It is actually bad now.

I guess it is time to respec for Blood build because that is still not nerfed.

RIP. Magic failed me entirely dps DPH wise. Looked like such a joke I gave up on it.

Might change with this mass release of casting speed increase, but it sounds like they nerfed recovery enough that it will make zero difference at all?

Yeah thats what i meant, for the dmg it did on top of being aoe, the FP cost was low.

Apparently you can only be a Katana WA spammer in this game. Everything else fun gets a nerf.

They reduced recovery times, meaning its a buff. Not a nerf.

They buffed a lot of stuff in this patch. Could be some fun stuff thats more usable now.

Full on buff? Well cool if so I do hope I misunderstood that.

[Tiasmoon]

Yeah. And I hope I didnt misunderstand it instead, heh.

Patch notes were seperated into ''upward adjustments'' (only buffs), ''up and down adjustments'' (both) and ''downward adjustments''.
