You would still be able to do more than 650+ damage with arena buff at max, I think that this still too much damage and the range is still very large. I think it would be better to add 200 damage to its minimum damage, and reduce 200 damage from its max damage. That would still make it viable, turning it into a f2p spartan with 2 uses and a larger damage range, while still not being that random. I agree with the change energy and heat cost though.
The main reason why frantic is so controversial is because of its damage range, not weight. Increasing the weight a bit doesn't change much, and I don't think is a viable solution. And trust me, frantic rolls high almost all the time, even if the rng was changed, it would still be controversial due to its damage range. This game is supposed to be a strategy game, not a slot machine. Also, testing isn't really needed when most people here have a lot of experience in the game.

I don't think that this is the main problem on SM right now, It's just a visual update and it will just feel different for few days, after that, nobody will care about the background or the music, I think that most of the players muted the music. 
BUT if something like this happens, I would do a poll/contest for the best background creator, rewarding with tokens and adding the background to the game. (Only adding 1 or 3 backgrounds (First place, Second place and Third place))
 

Ok that's literally premium packs. Gold boxes are basically premium packs now. What we need is:
A) an individual item shop
B) An ultra-mythical box that has at least 1 guaranteed mythical
or C)The *idea* of the ultra-mythical box where you are more likely to get premiums you don't have.

Music and background is perfectly fine as it is, it has nostalgia to it. Adding new things would ruin it.

2nd one.

Thank you, everyone, for helping me with advice. Thanks to you, I finally made it into level 9 for the first time.

Idk whats the real flex thread but hey
From the 7 day login premium box
neat

Merry Christmas & happy holidays to everyone 🙂
 

Nerfing energy free physical I understand, but buffing physical weapons? Have you seen how good physical mechs are right now, and you want to buff them?

I never said it was bad, you said it was cancer I said that it isn't. It's not broken.
Show me where I said valiant was bad.
Just stop assuming things.

Ok then. Whatever. 
I never said I wanted a buff to valiant, if you read my posts here you would know. A small buff would be appreciated, but it doesn't really need one.
Stop assuming things and read more.

Cancer? Do you even play dual valiant? It's only really good if your enemy is dumb and doesn't know how to avoid it. And it's not broken like upc either.

If you want to buff it, buff it in all aspects as I said before, or leave it as it is. Drain is a vital component of this weapon and made it unique, don't take that away from it. Just buff it slightly in all aspects or leave it.

Another nerf valiant thread is a good way to kick off the new forum I suppose.
said it before, will probably say it again: valiant isn’t even the most powerful energy weapon anymore let alone Among the most powerful weaponS in the game.
get to the point where 2+ phys isn’t a prerequisite for top 50 then we can talk about energy.
 
edit: if anything, it should be buffed. 
 

DaddyTX has won exactly zero individual medals this year. 😂

That's old medals, pretty sure that was before the new energy free phys meta came out. And it's not the end of the season yet anyway.

I really like this new forum and i want to make friends here 🙂

How would you beat a rounded physical mech with dual modules as a energy or heat mech? Or a meta energy free physical unless you are a energy free physical yourself? Obviously, as a physical mech, you only need to have more health than the opponent. That's much different for heat and energy mechs, especially for energy mechs when people have more than 700+ cap and usually above 300+ regen, maybe more than 350+ with the new dual modules. Try draining that. There's a reason why you don't really see energy mechs in the top 10 anymore for that matter. Your point of physical resist drainer being premium isn't really revelant, because most people don't use armor annihilator even if it was not premium anyway because physical is supposed to be about burst damage, not doing more damage overtime like heat mechs or burst drain like energy mechs. Also, it is quit heavy. Now for damaged armor annihilator, that's different because it has better res drain and is much lighter, allowing you to put 2 of them on a mech, especially on a energy free physical mech where you basically can break their res then damage them because of their sheer health, which is very different from rounded physical.
Energy free physical can tank through almost every build because of their health. Win against energy because of health and good damage with res drainer, win against heat because of health and res, and win against rounded physical because of health. Also win even against scope builds because of health.

Valiant sniper isn't that good anymore. UPC replaces it now. As a dual valiant user myself, the only thing it has really going for it is drain and resist drain. It has very low damage and only 2 uses. I still can't beat most energy free physical mechs, so I see don't how it needs a nerf. It was already nerfed once before. Plus, energy is dead in the current meta, there's no need to make energy more useless in top ranks. If anything, nerf upc instead.
 
Besides, valiant was always meant to be a low damage high drainer, your changes basically made it less unique.

It's not, although it is a very good weapon. It's bad against really high regen builds, especially since it only has 2 uses. Also the damage is really low. Range is also kind of hard to use unless you have something to get into valiant's range. Only thing it really has going for it is the res drain and energy drain.

Until I see players winning individual medals with valiants in their line-ups I think that most criticisms are not justified, but personal prejudice. The energy weapons need a major buff to make them competitive with phys or heat.
Try smashing 2 underpowered valiants and any energy drone against a 3500-4200 HP almost energy free phys w/90 energy resistance and take 1300 ejection blast + scope damage in the first two turns. 400 damage per use from Distance Shredder or Superb Charge + Rock Polisher adds up. By the time you attempt to drain 500-700 energy w/300-400 regen you’re staring at a “wtf just happened.” 😂
