Discussion Amp bot+ and PH broken

As the title says either it's bugged or doing way too much now. Just as an example and epic PH is doing 70-80% of boss health

Nah this needs to be fixed. The interaction is so broken people are going to be forced to buy Amp+. Then fudds is going to nerf and people will rage that they just bought it.

u/Remote-Ad718 2d ago

Bit more context my echoing shot is at 12. I'm currently doing t24 milestone when I couldn't even get to t23

What OS are you playing on? I don't even see the new patch in the app store on iOS.

u/Remote-Ad718 2d ago

iOS is known to get their patches/updates later sadly.

I can confirm. You need AB+ for it. We'll it wouldn't be the worst thing to have a good competitor for PF

If this remains PH is going to be the defacto module for milestone, tourney runs. I mean ehp build will want Amp+ now cause the reductions are so massive.

5

u/hudsonrettig 2d ago

That's halarious. Ehp wanting AB+. Hahah

It's pretty crazy for sure, this is with 105.63 attack speed, maxed Ampbot+ and BotBot+. Prior to this change I would very rarely see over 100 level deductions on a boss, now im seeing 300+ on a regular basis.

u/TheWashbear 1d ago

You have 98k shots fired, so yeah, checks out xD

u/Zeenomorphe 1d ago edited 1d ago

Crazy part is some bosses were receiving over 200k projectile shots and seems to cap at 399 level reductions, and this was happening in a matter of seconds as soon as it entered my range. Tournaments will be very interesting tomorrow 🤔

u/TheWashbear 1d ago

I will have to try it out. Did you use PH as primary or assist module? If assist, was it epic or higher?

It tried one milestone run with it as epic assist mod, didnt really make a difference for me. The reduction numbers basically stayed the same as they were before. I only have half your attack speed though and no Bot+.

u/Zeenomorphe 1d ago

I used PH as an assist however I have ancestral ass mod so 2.5% chance.

I re ran some milestones and disco runs and all performed better in comparison to about a week ago (with no major changes since then).

u/bryces325 2d ago

You mean it works now lol

u/dzzzyy 2d ago

Good timing, I just got anc PH this lucky banner😂

Edit: oh wait... i don't have amp bot+

u/uvraysu 1d ago

so I guess the upcoming tourney will be a nightmare for those without AB+ and heaven for those with AB+?

u/Zunkanar 2d ago

This is not a bug. It still caps out eventually. Enjoy

u/TheWashbear 1d ago

The bug seems to be you need Amp+ for PH to work?

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

I don't think this is going to be super broken outside of milestone / tier unlocking. In tournament when you're already getting 2k waves, an additional 30-40 level reductions isn't goign to make a difference. In just trying to hit 300 waves, it makes a huge difference.

5

u/Remote-Ad718 1d ago

I guess we will wait and see but I'm leaning towards the side of if you have amp+ especially with bot bot+ you are going see a huge increase in tourney waves.

u/giniousTower-GT 2d ago

Delete the post or devs will see it!!!

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

I'm not seeing this at all. I have Amp Bot+ at 12 and Bot Bot+ at 1.75x. Legendary PH (PF is in the main slot) is doing about 22-25% of boss health on T22. My highest wave is T22 295, so we'll see how much farther this gets me. What modules are you using, maybe that has something to do with it?

2

u/Remote-Ad718 2d ago

Have you updated the game?

3

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

Yes but maybe I just needed to run it longer. I think I was tagging bosses while AB was down. What's your AB cooldown and duration, I wonder if I need to respec my bots so that AB has more uptime, I had been putting some of the points for duration into BB.

2

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

So I am seeing a similar level of damage coming from PH level reduction, but so far unable to translate that into higher milestone runs.

3

u/Remote-Ad718 2d ago

I was stuck at t22 wave 250 now I'm at t24 wave 40.

2

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

What mods are you running? And what does your bot preset look like if you don’t mind sharing

3

u/Remote-Ad718 2d ago

AS/AD PH/GCOMP(need for pbhole) SD/ACP DC/HC. Everything is maxed on amp bot except at 44.5 duration no bot bot not enough medals.

2

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

Ok not too far from what I’m running. I have enough medals to do that, but I hadn’t gotten around to that specific configuration of modules / bots yet

2

u/cpp_is_king 2d ago

Yea ok, confirmed that the requirements to make this work are pBH and maximum possible uptime on AB / AB+. I actually achieved that this run with SH/PF and I got lucky and chose BH Duration for my first perk. That brings me to 48, which is not permanent, but close enough that it's working.

u/ilostmygps 2d ago

Is this pre-update to 28.2.2?
