Hello @hoody5221!

This topic was moved to the Krieg section for your convenience.

Between the 4 moderators and Joe, we do review all the content on the forums. While we do appreciate such notices, calling specific moderators out by name to perform a function will not speed up the process as they may be otherwise engaged. This is especially true when the poster has violated no rule, but has simply put his post in the incorrect section.

Thank you, and I hope that clears everything up for the future.

Melee dmg on K is already high my friend. With proper gear, can go up to 1650%.

And Hellborn got properly buffed with the splash damage fix ( I can be wrong though, since numbers make my blood vessels pop). I run Hellborn in my main MEAT MAN and feels more powerful.

Raving Retribution’s audio and Hellfire Halitosis are the only thing worth discussing about buffs under the Psycho category so yeah… no.

“… but LtF…” - I find highly unlikely that anyone would still want to use it at OP8 if it were rebalanced considering that you already have a hard time doing it without proper gear and build.

Kriegs hellborn is powerful but not op 8 scaled

All skills from Hellborn except for Hellfire Halitosis scales properly to op8 considering that they boost attributes such as damage, reload speed or elemental effect chance. Raving Retribution although not really able to deal that much damage works as an effective way to apply fire DoT’s thus being indirectly affected by the increased elemental effect chance or incresed burn damage that you had to spec into to be able to reach it (at least 5 points spent at the first tier skills).

Dude you do realize there is only 1 thing that adds fire damage right? Plus compare the damage boosts of hellborn and mania

Hellborn is not only about fire damage boosts, it’s about extra elemental effect damage, chance and duration, gun and melee damage, reload speed, fire-rate, mag size and probably the most effective healing in the game.

ps.: burn dps can be increased not only through burn damage but by increased effect chance and duration by the way.

Do you even know what thrill of the kill is? And thanks for letting me know how hellborn actually works

Thrill of the Kill - a skill that works really well with buzzaxe rampage, unlike Elemental Empathy.

No I’m saying thrill of the kill has more healing

It has spike healing but it’s nowhere near as reliable as elemental empathy.

No need for rhetorical sarcasm, mate.

We’re all friendly here, let’s keep the conversation polite.

I don’t have ToTK specced in my build and I don’t miss it.
May be justified for certain builds (like Fastball K, Torgue K, melee K, etc.) but in Hellborn with 5/5 EEmp it is pointless.

Wait, w0t?

I always put one (and just one) point of ToTK in melee or gun hybrid builds xD
And well, i wrote “may be justified” xD

It’s nice pre-RtB, other than that, It’s nice to utilse your gun buffs if you are confident in your ability to not mess up your RtB. (Basically, if you’re weird like X)

I’m not weird. I CAN GET OVERSIZED ARMS, RANT ABOUT MEAT AND FLUIDS, BE THE CONDUCTOR OF THE POOP TRAIN but I’m not weird xD
