Not fair to compare it with Alani has riptide doesn’t deal (much) damage, whereas Shadowfire Pillar is Orendi’s main source of damage, so i think 3 seconds slow on a high damaging skill is too much.

Plus if you chose to have 2 pillars it’s 6 seconds of slow if you stagger your pillars
good luck with that, hitting a Caldarius main with shadowfire pillar is a feat in itself if they are a competent dodger you will be lucky to land your pillars 20% of the time. same with a competent melka. even leading your pillars they have enough mobility to course correct out of the pillar. Orendi is very easy to dive, she heavily relies on her team to protect her in order to wreak havoc. the only way I can equalize the fight is melt them with my damage. Orendi’s survivability depends on landing her damage.
speaking of an orendi change they should fix her secondary. I thought it would be much cooler if it launched a slow moving projectile which you could detonate by either shooting it with a shadow bolt or hitting it with a pillar. would add more interesting gameplay to her.
Bah, just bring back OG Lets Bounce.

Shayne and Aurox
Switcherang bug when you have increased attack speed. If I get hit by Bea’s or I sit in Earnest’s atk egg, the animation for Shayne’s switcherang resets after every throw. This is (in my eyes) pretty game breaking because my own team’s buffs and helpings are horribly hindering my attacks.
This has been going on for waaaaay too long and needs to be fixed before the devs stop supporting this game.
Aurox’s pull does absolutely nothing 20% of the time. Aurox will cling to the enemy but he will not pull or stun and I don’t get my overshield. Again, I wouldn’t call this game breaking but this is absolutely character breaking! I love playing shayne but I’m literally handicapping myself if I do right now.

Would definitely like to echo Shaurox issues. The pull and attack speed glitch.
Hate not being able to play one of my top 5 fav toons for 3 + months now.

Boldur and WF Bots
It’s just too much fun to QM them to death but they are broke as f**k. Bots need love too yo.
I don’t drink though
She already has another slow on one of her helix’s if you choose it. and a blind at lv 2 " almost every char has some sort of cc" isn’t a fair argument imo.
Mike and ambra don’t even have one unless they reach level 10 which hardly ever happens not that i want them to have more cc either i think they do fine without it.
I’ll agree with you on the cc meta being dealt with, but no i don’t think orendi needs a third cc option.

What’s with WF bot?
I’ve seen him only using his scrap shot skill.
Gali is busted too, she only blocked and threw her shield before but that’s not every match
alright I see what you mean about the wind-up and how you have to wait through the ult, but I was defining canceling when you do your ult call but still don’t do your skill but it’s all just technicalities so whatever.
“decrease Deande’s ult radius”
Because the ult stun is one of the easiest, longest and unavoidable to characters w/o CC/silence/escape abilities and is only rivaled by Kelvin stuns, and even playing with a Deande who isn’t so good is still an asset to the team as the lvl 5 stuns can stun the enemy team or an individual target to cause your team to whale on them to death while stunned and stun chain if your team has em’. So the least the devs could do is nerf the insanely long radius of the ult to make her take a little more skill when it comes to her really cheap ult.
Also speaking of Deande’s parkour, what’s up with her teleporting around randomly while doing it? xD

That parkour thing is the inverse of the glitch that pushes you away from walls, either that or the thing Phoebe gets when using true strike off a ledge. Its a known issue and i haven’t been able to control it.
Yes, good high mobile characters can dodge your pillars and before the Nihilism patch Orendi used to be more of a assasin/wave-clear hybrid, while now w/ instant no damage reduction pillars she’s more of an asset as an assassin at lvl 6 than wave-clear. However if you really want to counter these meh characters (w/ the exception of Benedict) if Nihilism was taken out then you could go left at lvl 5 and take instant gratification at lvl 6 so you can double instant pillar them and ult.
Note: That it is not the answer to keep Nihilism in the game as it severely lowers the skill cap for Orendi as placing shadow pillars on people takes next to no skill to do, is cheap since you can’t avoid 500 and even 700+ damage if you’re using the Lorrian Skill Spike and especially frustrating to play against if your team doesn’t have a good healer.
These slows are pretty bad considering after Nihilism you usually push yourself away from the target so a lot of the times you aren’t in range and the 20% Nihilism cooldown has a lot more utility.
But you gave me an idea! Maybe instead of changing Nihilism to pillar slows, instead the pillar could work like a crappy version of Reyna’s Priority Target lvl 2 slow skill, where if someone is hit by a shadow pillar then for idk, like 3 seconds, then Orendi can hit them with her primary fire and slow them for 2 seconds each time she does. I’m gonna write this one on the OP ^^.

The whole jump kick bug is more of a hindrance than a help, and personally, I would like to see it fixed in the fall update, although I don’t think it’s likely.

So OM, WF, Reyna, Marquis and Kleese. The fact that five characters struggle with it seems like a bad reason for nerfing her ult, especially when Deande also has to worry about the entire enemy team’s CC when she uses her ult, not just whoever she’s targeting.

Kleese shouldn’t have to seriously worry over her ult if he’s in his rifts, only thing he’ll have to seriously do is rebuild his rifts of any are destroyed. So I’d argue 4

Or he could even just nuke her as she’s standing perfectly still for about 2 seconds. It takes less than one for Kleese to do upwards of 1500 damage.

That also, but I granted the element of surprise for discussions sake
