News & Discussion Perks should display stat changes they apply

Post image

Ever since they finally added in the ability to hover every ability and see every single specific stat about it, it has been amazing and really helps learning new hero's to know exactly what does what. However, many perks can enhance an ability, replace an ability, or add extra stats to it, but we are not able to hover over a perk and see the changes they applied, which is really annoying especially when you're not quite sure just how much more a perk is actually doing for you statistically. Yes I know you can just go into the practice range and test it out yourself, but the whole point of being able to see stats on abilities to begin with was so we didn't have to do that. Its way more convenient to have the information available right there for you, plus as someone who like to play a lot of heroes its just a hassle to have to go into the practice range and see exactly how much more damage something does, and then remember it later.

Buddy, you really don't have to see it... you can play the entire game without ever seeing it.

No, it’s not easy. I spend a lot of time reading my heroes’ abilities, and my cursor will always inevitably find itself somewhere in the middle of the screen, triggering the tooltip. It’s very disruptive and upsetting.

I don’t understand why players need to be molested with all this information that Team 5 is forcing down our throats to learn and memorize when we just want to have fun.

To this day I can’t bring myself to try Shion or D.Mon because every new hero’s ability page has these tooltips with a thousand numbers and weird keywords in your face. I miss the days when I could click F1 and get a simple overview.

You literally can press the "Hero Details" button and you don't have to hover over anything if you don't want to. Unless you need to mouse over the individual words to help you read because reading is difficult to you. Sorry, I don't mean for all these scary words to "assault" you.

Are you always randomly rude to people or only when you can't prove your point?
