The lack of planar damage remains


Recommended Posts

This update is, though providing certain skills which do could provide some positive effect and can be helpful under special circumstances, still lacks some vital functions and solutions to special problems that happens commonly in post rift worlds.

Currently the skilltree haven't yet provided any planar damage other than the lunar elixir monoplized by the lunar alignmemt, which solved also the survival problem of Abigail, while the shadow alignment skill still makes Wendy deals more damage than Wolfgang in pre-rift era and significantly loses the damage in post-rift worlds, which is neither healthy nor interesting.

The main problem is that the planar damage is monoplized by the lunar elixir alone while both forms of Abigail themselves don't possess the ability to deal planar damage, causing a situation that you have to choose the lunar alignment to adapt to the post rift world. Making the alignment Abigails can deal planar damage themselves would be a better solution.

Adding: Since shadow Abi is vex-centered, make Wendy deal extra planar damage to vexed enemies would also be a solution.

This doesn't work for Abi if I recall correctly. Damage output of Wendy is formed as "Wendy+Abi+VexBonus". The bonus DPS which you said is only work for Wendy, but do nothing to Abi and VexBonus. This means that Wendy got lesser benefit from both affinity line than other characters.

I'm not able to check in-game at the moment, but if that is the case, it's a bug. Alignment bonuses are implemented for Abigail:

That only affects normal damage if my memory is correct, does no help to planar damage

Just checked, Abby does correctly get the player's 1.1x allegiance modifier.

Allegiance bonuses do affect planar damage (both skilltree bonuses and equipment bonuses).

Though it should be noted Abigail also benefits from her own 1.1x vex buff, which only affects physical damage.
