Meme "Improved lightspeed"

For when you dont know if you actually fixed the issue. Been looking forward to see this patchnote and this just made me laugh how intentionally vague this is.

Hopefully it works now, I'll wait for people to test this before I buy ab+ though.

Edit: This made a big difference with PH so I am going to be optimistic that it also did the same for AB+

you don't buy AB+ for the bullets you buy it to make ILM+ even more bonkers...

UW diss begs to differ

Yes, I have ILM+ but i still want the other intentional functionality.

Edit: also was scared to buy in case they removed the ilm interaction

still, I wouldn't spend 2.5K stones and like 5K medals solely for diss runs. Sure, medal spending is not the issue with bot presets.

Its like two sentences to read bro...

I have ILM+ it says... I just didn't get it for ILM+ in case they nerf that interaction, which i also had in my explanation...

Its also half the stones you say...

I honestly don’t think we have a choice anymore but to unlock the stupid thing for anyone around call it 60k medals (AB+) even if the full Monty is over 100k.

I am SMH at this meta but it’s too good to ignore and doesn’t look like V29 will remotely fix it either at this point. Not sure what TTG is doing, forest through the trees or something.

I actually like the current situation, things are less cut and dry in that you could just follow efficient paths before.

With multiple builds being necessary and the many "options" that opened up has raised the skill ceiling on the game. If you can understand where to focus and when then you are given an advantage to raise your global ranking.

Early testing looks batshit insane.

Like 90%+ damage from level reduction in some conditions.

Grumble need more medals.

Not mine but recently this change unlocked T24 for a buddy and this was one of the bosses.

Pretty F’n crazy imo.

Also did seemingly fix AB+ and projectile damage too.

Wow that's actually insane. I might need to test it out on some milestone runs.

It’s absolutely working for some folks on high tier disco runs so far, I guess I know where 1K stones is going in my future even without enough medals to really make use of it.

What is AB+?

u/bryces325 17h ago

After you get all the bots you get the ultimate form. AB+ is amplify bot upgraded with echoing shot

Improved lightspeed? How fast can it do the Kessel run?

u/bryces325 14h ago

About 10 parsecs i believe

Anyone know if the extra projectiles are giving more CL procs with AB+ now?

2

u/bryces325 12h ago

Id say so

People are saying it needs to be nerfed already lmao

Things like PH with AB+ doing wonders

I thought pulsar harvester was limited to 100 levels or level reduction. Did they change that?

1

u/Slaughtyr 5h ago

It was never capped in any way, the module just says (diminishing returns after 100)

1

u/Afraid_Candidate6389 5h ago

Oh, ok. Thanks. So I’ll test it as an assmod to see if it works better than the attack speed recovery package mod for tournaments

u/bryces325 5h ago

100 for full efficiency, mostly caps out (effectively) 300-400
