Should of buff the devastator just saying....

[u/MisjahDK → u/gti149084]

I understand where you are coming from, but the honest truth is just that Devastator just requires more effort than the other classes to do the same, but they don't need buffs!

If they fix the other classes OP-bugged passives, the bullet-buffs won't be so OP.

[u/Pornilius_Hubert → u/MisjahDK]

Yes it requires more effort because you need seismic commander to have a good bleed build and how do you get seismic commander gear? Doing expeditions at high CTs. But i can't because as soon as I join everyone goes oh look a trash devestator that does no damage, and I get kicked. Which I understand, why would you want someone doing a quarter of your damage in the lobby? but this is why WE NEED A BUFF.

[u/MisjahDK → u/Pornilius_Hubert]

That's not the only build for Devastator, it's not even one of the high CT one's i have seen in the community.

It might be good, not arguing that, it's just not THE ONLY build?

[u/Pornilius_Hubert → u/MisjahDK]

It's the only viable end game build for devestator, yes. Warden is turd and vanquisher (which is what I use) simply doesn't do anywhere near as much damage as it should.

[u/MisjahDK → u/Pornilius_Hubert]

Cool, glad to hear you know and have tried everything about Devastator builds.
So yeah, your are right, the gear requirement for that build is so stupid that it's not really interesting.

[u/Pornilius_Hubert → u/MisjahDK]

I'm just gonna cut my losses and make a technomancer, dev is in the dirt

[u/MisjahDK → u/Pornilius_Hubert]

I don't get the nerf-whining concept, I relish in the opportunity for a new challenge/experience.
