@csof1 i used her in the open beta and she did the same thing she does in the release and to be quite fair i was able to get at least 20 kills per round. Idk how you used her in the beta. But i believe i may be able to help you out. Phoebe needs to be constantly moving which is where her alt fire comes in

I’m a terrible player…but I’m doing pretty decent with Phoebe, so…?

Yup. Highly mobile atk’ing pattern. Stay out of the enemy’s POV and stabby stab em. Haven’t unlocked but one helix so far and it’s meh.

If your reaching that number of kills with these changes then she is fine. She was to powerful before and that is whey they changed her.

Dude… Phoebe is SO strong. She is still amazing, and I am able to get loads of kills with her in btoh PVP and PVE. In the CTT, she was OP af. The stun combined with her damage output was crazy.(Reminds me of someone else… A purple woman, with the UPR or something? Yes, I’m talking to you, Gally.)
I think you should just get used to the way she plays now, and you’ll be fine.

Yeah man, I played her at PAX Prime, closed console beta, PAX East, and the PC open beta, and shes been a steady powerhouse.

#7

See what i said: closed technical beta, it’s like the alpha, not the open beta. And I don’t need anyone to teach me how to use phoebe, i just feel so sad and unfair about her

But if you know galilea you will know what’s the biggest unbalance in this game. She is a defender, she can stun enemies, she can flee whenever she likes, and she can even block1000 damage! That’s hard enough to kill her

#9

Not sure what the problem is… seems she is working as intended. She was for sure broken during the CTT. 15-20 kills per game is great for her; if you’re looking to melt everyone with no contest like before it’s just not going to happen, that was never how she was intended to function.

Just want you to see the first one is the best I achieved In CTB, second is a random good score i took. I just feel so unfair with her, especially her “ultimate” is totally useless compared to others,even you tell me get the third helix unlocked at rank 12(I’m 14), 50% damage reduction, man, that’s a joke

#11

So, basically, you can’t go 30 and 2 anymore with her, so she’s bad now…

No, she doesn’t need buffed.

she doesn’t need a buff but as a phoebe player her ult is useless

#13

Why is everyone saying that Phoebe’s ultimate is useless? If you get the teleport perk that slows enemies and immediately use the ultimate right after, you get some great damage out of it.

Her ult is fine. Killer dmg in story mode and in competitive you just have to bait players to stay in it. Compare it to other ults and it’s perfectly in line. It’s not burst dmg, but it’s good area dmg. Can be used as area denial. Used in the middle of a group brawl and its devastating.

Kite and fight.

#16

Wait you mean some abilities work better when combined with other abilities? Get outta here…

#17

okay i see your point i guess i was just being stupid

Phoebe is still ridiculously lethal. You can’t charge an entire team with her and win anymore, I think that’s okay. If you want to charge a 5 man team and win just play Galilea.

A single Phoebe can hold a lane alone in meltdown with her ult. She’s actually super strong in that game mode.

I think she’s more finessed now. I prefer her this way. Most people when silenced simply stumble around. It’s kinda of hilarious and the effect I think Phoebe should have.
