Cool ideas, really like the passive. But I think having stun with such duration on a primary sounds beyond overpowered. Unless I misunderstand how it works.
Also, I am not confident if you understand how big 1 unit is in Paladins. One of your abilities has range of 1000 units which is like 2 times longer than the longest map in this game.
I wish you good luck.
I personally never bother with starting for AoC because I feel like it is more of a popularity contest rather than contest based on what certain AoC member could provide, but if I happen to vote at all you might be one of my candidates.
@Dusklicious Update Notes ALREADY? Does that mean they will be tons of balance patch notes like at the end of every season or did they run out of resources even for this?...

Right direction (in the sense these would buff sustain and Tinkerin), but not exactly what I would consider doing. I made a video roughly 3 weeks ago (link here) detailing what I think he needs, Of course this is assuming Wrecker and Bulldozer are buffed which will SURELY happen as long as EM's design team doesn't have brain damage considering the FL meta right now is VERY shield heavy, and of course Io and Imani exist, and I ended up coming to conclusions more along these lines (with some omissions so I don't accidentally break him):
- Increasing Maximum Health from 3400 to 3500. (I don't like the idea of buffing his max health too much as you can still run Brave and Bold to supplement it and I don't feel like he should be made to just absorb damage)
- Increasing his Barricade's health from 3750 to 4500.
- Dome Shield should no longer consume charge until FULLY deployed. (which you pretty much covered this)
- Increasing the scaling of Palisade from (.4/.4)s to (.6/.6)s.
- Increasing the scaling of Bunker from (200/200) to (275/275).
- Healing Station's effects should STACK. (Would very much help defensively with point Archi builds)
- Increasng Tinkerin's damage from 480 to 520 and boosting it's projectile speed by ~15%.
When it comes to the changes I was actually thinking about buffing his shield, but then I realized how "fun" new shieldnando and koa are to go against and instead decided to make barik himself absorb more damage instead.
In these balance changes I am trying not to touch any cards unless they are in dire need of help (Bane, Devout Dexterity, Snake Pit) or if they are very overtuned, which is why you don't see those mentioned anywhere in the Barik section. Barik cards, for the most part, are in lucky spot where they are strong enough there's barely any that would make you throw the game. However I wouldn't mind these buffs you proposed going live.
Except for Healing Station. I might not have played Barik much in season 3, but when I did, I used architectonics religiously and healing station didnt seem to be in need of buffs. I can't imagine the effect stack unless we drop its value a little.
Not sure if 40 extra damage on Tinkerin isn't too much. It is a tank afterall and when Ash received her exact damage shift she went from one of best to throw picks instantly. I honestly would just make sure he can 4tap 2000 hp targets and call it a day. The projectile speed I have no comment on, but I am not sure if it is necessary addition since projectile speeds can change the feel of the weapon and I am sure there are some players that like Tinkerin's speed currently.

@TTraw I like the ideas, really good, but about Torvald I think he needs a Rework instead of a buff, I had a post talking about an ideia for a Torvald Rework.
Considering their new champion kit tendencies, I am geniuely afraid of the upcoming rework and thus I am trying to salvage whatever is good about current Torvald so that they dont make his situation even worse.
They actually never tried it you know - make Protection not his main focus in Torv's kit and instead make both Nullify and Recharge you know... good. All buffs and nerfs he received were about his bubble exclusively ever since his first rework and most of the time they turned him into unfun to play against pocket bot. Why not make Bubble strong enough to make an impact, but rare enough to reward Torv for good situational awareness and not "pocket that 1 dps" mentality?

@TTraw Well, I'm not sure about Crashing Waves, but I'm quite positive that Spring Tide was buffed well after the removal of DJL. It's now a (250|250) heal per hit, you can easily see how busted it could be if it was too easy to activate...
I checked his update notes and I saw nothing about Spring Tide buff. So yeah, I don't expect it being too overpowered.
@M3RC3N4RI0 @AYYDIMITRI Call me dumb. I've misread your posts. I blame coming back from 24h workshift.
@M3RC3N4RI0 said in Melee damage subtype?..:
You don't even get info in the game what is blocked by haven or blast shield, or do you?
@AYYDIMITRI said in Melee damage subtype?..:
There is no special kind of listing of contact damage...
Guys, go to Ability Screen in Champions menu. Each damaging ability has written "Direct" or "Area" damage in upper right corner..,
Today I reminded myself why I should avoid playing early in the morning.
I had a match with a 301 lvl CM Pip and a Moji.
The pip played fine first round but then he started weightless into enemy backline every time he respawned, often 1v5ing the whole thing, and ulting into the air. Ended up 3/20/4 or sth. Not sure what happened here, did he give his keyboard to his younger siblings mid match? lol
Moji was the cherry on top of everything. 3/20/2 and 20k dmg.
I was playing Imani and we had GM Lian and Nessa on enemy team. There was a situation where I hit Lian once for 1000 dmg, then other Fireball for 998 dmg and died quickly after. Then Moji dismounted in front of Lian right after that happened. She STILL managed to kill the moji. Lian had no HP card which means she literally had 2 POINTS OF HP. Moji missed 3 of her LMBs and decided to Scamper into the Lian right after, which resulted in Lian bursting the living crap out of that Moji. She could literally press her easy to hit RMB to kill Lian within 0.08s and possibly push the payload but apparently missing all the giant LMBs she deemed as more succesful strategy.
Time to go back to Warframe until evening so I can get better matches. Being matched against GMs while having no GMs on my team seems unfair considering my highest rank wasn't even dia.
@SomeGuySomeWhere I am not so sure about it. They weren't particularly strong back in time when this talent existed in any shape or form, so I gave it additional cooldown reduction so he can get full reset after 2-3 boops.
I decided to shift some numbers around based on feedback here in comments and on what I got from PMs. If anyone has feedback on their champion please let me know.
Speaking of which, @Dusklicious great Barik main in the wall, what is your wisdom? [on these Barik changes]
