Why modify Bastia

Neo Monsters

No mythic pvp lmao

I am not agreeing with what you said.
Bastia is a tanky support/healer and is projected to be that.
But I would have gave her another passive.

Imo field passives need to be assigned to less tanky mythics/legendaries.

So we are saying two different things.
If the passive is not negotiable well then is fine as it is.
Lowering the defense for making her more vulnerable to legendaries is not necessary especially after Cypridrus release.
If you don’t/can’t get a Cypridrus that doesn’t mean she need a nerf.
However I see your point, I was in a favor of a defense nerf too initially, but thinking about it won’t make much difference bringing her down to 6k def, and less than 6k is not suitable for her moveset.
Maybe she is difficult to kill because she is meant to be difficult to kill.

True. It will be like eliminating stun counters easily before spamming stun. Mythic Bastia must be tanky to fulfill her role to stay as long as possible to disrupt enemy.

She should lose survivor though . Survivor on a tanky / heal monster is a bad idea .

That is where we agree. My suggestion is to make Bastia like this.

Does that mean dusci can’t have shield field

The issue with this is that these kind of monsters need to stay on the field to be worthwhile. I think it makes the most sense to give them tanky stats. In fact if I could I would steer the game further away from a 1 shot meta where monsters come in, do 1 or 2 moves and then die. Old school Neo was more like that and that’s what I fell in love with.

I think the real problem with them is how much versatility and survivability they are given with passives and actives. Take Dusicyon. If you remove Leech or hold ground, he goes down a few tiers on the monster list. Take off hold ground or healing light from Bastia, she isn’t that hard to kill anymore.

I would like the game to require us to think more while team building. Don’t give a field passive monster more than 1 survival skill. Make us work around that by adding a healer such as Heavenswyrm to support the field monster. Do not make them self-sustaining! That would be my solution.

That self sustainability is Why duscy works so well with ap spam :joy:

Yes for sure, It’s her combination of “Tankiness” HG, Stats, healing that makes her hard to kill. I just mentioned Def because I don’t want any more moves changed. They already changed a few moves. It’s simple and won’t ruin her.

Offcourse if she didn’t have HG or healing I would have zero issues with her. Whatever her stats are…

Old school neo was one shot,

Always was,

The only viable teams were soul stealer
Give turn banedragon
OoO and charge survive
Stun/sleep bronzeshells

Technically it always was one shot indeed. But in the past you needed to work for it a bit more (at least it felt like that). Also back in 2016 I didn’t play PvP but I remember not that many monsters were able to outright 1 shot. And the roles of a monster were better defined and didn’t overlap.

Just remove cannibalize token ( add raw Cannibalize 100TU)

77

No don’t do that, I’m sure a lot of the current top players wont be staying at the top anymore. Give them a break since they support the game with their kaching anyway. :rofl:

I like how few times ago people were like “nerf bastia” and now that it has been done you all complain she has been nerfed.

We spend a lot of money to wake up Bastia, just to better match our team. This modification of yours will directly destroy my team. If that were Bastia, we would not spend a lot of money to wake her up. Besides, there are only a few people who have awakened Bastia, so there is no need to modify her. Moreover, some of my other awakening mythical monsters are not as strong as legendary monsters. Have you considered strengthening them? You didn’t. your modification was a bad decision.

Looks like you understand nothing then and are defending your melon myth because you spent for it.
