Kelvin was once mighty... now, not so much

I kinda wish the minions had health bars

You can tell from their physical condition. When they’re almost dead, they have next-to-no plating left and lots of exposed wires and stuff.

Actually, I believe that just exposes their crit spots. I’ve had bots die with full armor and bots with full health and no armor. Like sentries.

My issue is his PVP farming. He can become a really HP tank, i was able to get him over 5k in PVE. But i PVP its hard to focus on getting last hits on minions when there is war all around you. Players are attacking the minions your trying to last hit, players are attacking you because your so big. Maybe if GBX added an effect that make a icon over minions when your chomp will kill them so you don’t need to feel like your wasting it.

If BB made a dual lane Incursion, and had a jungle this would be a problem. Kelvin could just farm jungle creeps. Im still hoping for a dual lane Incursion…

The only minions you won’t kill with Chomp automatically are the Shepherds, Strikers, or any spawnables like Elite bots or Thralls.

The plain old little minion bots will die when Chomped, regardless of how damaged they were.

So if you’re thirsty for any health stacks at all, just target those guys. On Meltdown, even the ones who are overshielded by a Shepherd bot will still be killed instantly.

Not easy when thorn and orendi ate all the minions.

D:

#26

Good thing they’re nerfing that blight! Orendi will still eat all the things, though

#27

Blight right now hits 110 per tick i was like whut when i played thorn after mastering s&a… Her ult deals so little dmg while spamblight+ ult blight stack!! While wft naplam dosent stack!

Thorn is a thorn in my badasses butt

#28

Her ult deals so little damage? It’s literally a paradigm shift with twice the range

#29

Bad sentence, but I believe he was talking g about how Shayne’s ult does so little damage while talking about how much Thorn can do with a fairly spammable attack.

#30

Shayne? When was she ever mentioned?

#31

It’s a mess, but right there he compared Shayne’s ult to Thorn.

#32

Lmao! I read right past that :sweat_smile:

Thanks for clarifying. Sentence structure is a bitch sometimes

#33

Im sry :frowning:image

I haven’t played with kelvin before the nerf, but I’ve played with him a few games. And I think he’s amazing I love em. I wreck minions and players. Only issue, I feel like he takes more damage than the average character. I don’t use subligate unless it’s to escape or feed fleeing players to my team, works 90% of the time (made up statistic, but yes works most of the time.)

I think he’s just fine, that 1second stun is enough to feed players to your team.
