Yet another "AST Tweaks" Thread

[Mutemutt]

Gravity has been the same since AST's launch but its mp cost is lower than Holy, It has the same potency of Holy but it is missing an effect therefore, a lower mp cost is justified. If they were to give Gravity like a Slow or Stun, I'm sure they'd raise the MP cost as well.

I could understand a higher price point for an effect that was actually useful in most pve content like slow (attack speed debuff, that is) and stun, but not for gravity as OP suggested. Higher mp for a heavy effect would just be a nerf to gravity for the sake of formalities rather than a counterbalance to keep things in check. I'd honestly still take a heavy effect for higher mp cost because I just like the idea of a gravity based attack making things heavier that much, but I wouldn't agree with the thought that the mp price hike was needed.

The slow I was speaking of was similar to Feint not the OP's suggestion to add heavy onto Gravity. I'd take an MP cost nerf if they threw Feint's effect on Gravity but I sort of agree with you; I don't feel like the MP cost should be nerfed. I just feel like if they were to do that, they'd most likely adjust the MP cost as well.

Outside of A3S, Pvp and the old T7, heavy is kind of useless tbh. I'm not sure why people want it on Gravity.

Stella is the same cost of Miamsa but Stella is outside the normal damage rotation.

Yeah but if you compare to stone I, Stella is really bad.

Stone I : 353 mp 140 potency 40%slow 20sec +-same cd same range
Stella : 442 mp 100 potency 40% slow 20 sec +-same cd same range

For gravity, I would like a better radius

IF you compare with Holy.
You have 5 radius against 8.

If they increased gravity's radius, do you think they'd also have to nerf its ranged aspect? I know with HOLY that I have to run into a pack of mobs to fire them off. Usually safe because of the stun so it seems fine, but I still have to consider whether or not its safe to leave the comfort of being at range.
