Marvel: Avengers Alliance: Emma Frost gets nerfed…again!
This time the nerfing of Emma Frost’s powers in Marvel: Avengers Alliance is deliberate, while her last update was a fix in response to a glitch that occurred in which her stats were depowered.
Playdom posted the patch notes for 8/27 on their forum. Here’s the description for Emma’s update.
Emma Frost Update
- Passive “Organic Diamond” no longer procs Diamond Form when another character Protects an attack
- Organic Diamond no longer defends against psychic attacks. This should help Emma vs. Emma fights.
- Several changes to Mental Anguish
- Is removed after any action that is not a Quick Action
- This means if someone rests, but gets extra turns later, they will not have to rest those extra turns as well
- This also means that if someone takes damage from the Mental Anguish, they will not take additional damage on extra turns
- Still cannot be cleared by using a quick buff such as Hawkeye’s Pinpoint Target
- Now produces Mental Scarring if the target takes damage, making that target immune to Mental Anguish until their next turn
- Now deals consistent damage against targets with different health
- Is removed after any action that is not a Quick Action
- Unlock Potential now correctly removes debuffs only when first applied instead of preventing new debuffs from being applied
Bah! Well, it was fun while it lasted!
