[Novadrake] Original moveset

I posted the above reply without reading anybody else’s posts. Seems like Killerdog mentioned some similar things but can’t believe said it doesn’t need a nerf. .

I still want it to be usable. Your suggestions are fair. I stated that it should keep the HG to make sure it stays stronger than when it was first released.

It was crap when they first released it because it didnt have Hold Ground. They buffed it WAAAAY to much. I think it got buffed Freaken Twice.

I don’t know what the devs were thinking.

I just sad that every s+ tier legend eventually could get nerfed :cry::cry::cry:

Ok I absolutely not gonna spend gems on Novadrake banner cause it’s gonna be nerfed like cani and AP and all the god monsters that are meta

I think they will buff Canis Underdog again. They went too far. I don’t know why devs go overkill sometimes. They did the same to AP spam.

I tried to use protectors today , oh boy , that was a mistake lmao . Yep protectors are practically dead …after having experienced it

I too feel , his TU must be higher than 50 sec cos mythics have 50s moves . So 60 or 70 is fair .

Blood price should deal way more damage to him

Raw bloodthirst was crap when released too. Now it bypasses protectors with almost half the tu of a protector killer

How can stun wave be a problem with all stun absorber, convert , counter, immune + stealth around there?

Not everyone owns such posh monsters . Also , novadrake entered into discussion cos of times up and true hit.

Moreover , monsters without stun immunity need to find uses without having to worry about getting stun locked. Game should give an opportunity to recover after getting locked

Is this really happening? They are spoiling all the good monsters that exist in the game, I think that instead of strengthening strategies and helping solutions, what they do is use the easiest way (ask Nerf) I think that our dear administrators should start to put a bit of a deaf ear to what is communicated here, is that instead of playing and everyone every day they come here in search of nef nerf nerf and nerf, today they come for Nova who knows tomorrow who they are here for, I really am feeling a great disappointment lately, however there are much more troublesome monsters and not even mentioned, hopefully and the administrators solve this soon or this beautiful game will be coming to an end @Dev_VKC

The problem is that stun absorbers die to true hit and stun counters/converters die to times up which much more ppl have after the raizen buff.

If you mean Bastia and lemon , I donot know if I have the right to talk about a monster that can be acquired by spending money . Cos it’s not my money

I mean directly that if they keep complaining about all the snow s + monsters they will end up with Neo monsters

The very concept of categorizing monsters into top tiers shouldn’t exist in the first place .

a tier D monster must NOT be inferior in any means to a tier S+ . That’s the whole idea behind these balance patches and nerf calls .

Every egg should be exciting and that’s the best way to make this game move forward with profit.

At the least , there should be 2 categories : PVE and PVP .

Second wind should be 50tu across the board, not just for novadrake

Mmm. Here is my opinion about some points:

3- It makes no much sense to talk about skills in this thread when there are some monster like Lemon around. Also, you say “true hit the stun protector (…) and novadrake follow up works”, but what about : “set scorpiongeist, freezcobra and deathgazer and you can turn any match around”?. This also requires no much skills. So I don’t see the point.

4-stun immunity,stun converter, stun absorber… If your opponent gets rid of this … Well🤷🏻‍♂️ that’s his strategy; just like when someone gets rid of purifiers and sleep immune monsters because we wants to sleep part of your team.

5-In fl, just use scarleguard (if he becomes meta in FL), many people is using it and everyone have it;fls like OoO also work. About facing him in other part of the team, you just have to avoid the point 4 to happen. It is pretty obvious when your opponent starts killing your stun protection that there is a lot of stun comming, and that’s one of the oldest strategies in neo🤷🏻‍♂️.

About the suggestions:

A-You remove HG and then you’ll also have one of the most useless SS🤷🏻‍♂️. Also, Nova is recognized for being the WEAKEST legendary ever. You practically look at him and he dies. That + he loses part of his life with every move. Without HG any roaring entrance can kill him.

B-About this point, setting the field for Nova takes the participation of monsters of different elements; you’ll be killing 90% of the strategies people have made around him. Also,it would leave the only choice of using it in FL or one of the first reinforcements, where anyone can easily kill him, since shadow element has no enough material to cover him.

C-Remove stun wave to a monster that depends on stun?

Novadrake is one of the strongest legendaries, yes, but is certainly not OP.
I’m sorry if I’ve been a little rude with this way to explain myself, but I just cannot be more disappointed of this community. Neo is probably the game where players have the lowest chances to get something good,and yet, here we are everyday asking for nerfs to those good stuffs🤷🏻‍♂️.

Btw @Professor_Oak , I couldn’t avoid noticing that you’ve mentioned in more than one time “Nova in times of true hit”, I also noticed the time of the publication, which restraints it to “something that you saw in ranked pvp”.
And I can’t stop thinking that I’m the only one using that right now :thinking:.
Maybe I’m wrong though
If that’s the case, let me say that that’s not a two monsters combination, there are 6 monsters working there, so it’s not that “easy”

@Saitama made a great point. Blood Price should be a disadvantage, but it’s absolutely not. If Novadrake didn’t have it, it’d change nothing.

I won’t advocate for a Novadrake nerf, but for an appropriate redesign. Its passive should be something ACTUALLY tampering, like Frenzy, Broken Heart or Stun Absorber.

Here I agree. Maybe the life reduction shouldn’t be a % of his current life. Maybe it should be a % of his total life(of course,in this case, it should be just a 10 or 15%). With this change he actually kills himself with a certain amount of moves.
@Professor_Oak what are your thoughts about this
