Rescaling Adv Attack on the loss of 5% telling mark

[Zaheer]

List 5.2 including shadow's lament added scaling damage from telling mark being underscaled.

• Advantageous Attack has been neglected over the past years even after the captains patch, this is the added damage bonus for using shadow's lament onto a target with telling mark. The numbers seem to vary from time to time but are nonetheless very low.

As seen above, these are the numbers given to shadows lament when used with telling mark.
As a proposal, I say we rescale this, to give the captain slightly more DPS at the 5% damage mark loss.

How much is up to the dev, but since we, as captains, lose 5% damage over all our skills. I'd say the added light damage bonus should be around 50-100k(being affected by legacies too)

I also ask what other people think of this idea, so please leave some feedback.



The numbers, could actually be higher, due to us loosing a major chunk of damage over time on the loss of 5% telling mark.

But, we could also propose a fixed % bonus in terms of damage to shadow's lament. This way, we avoid further loss in future content updates and level caps.

It will give great hope to see a light for the future in these dark days of captains.

I'm worried the captains will be nerf more, I don't care about the buff, they just need to fix bugs. Nvm, keep using rev/noble mark on creeps. We need more endless fight with reavers.

Agree. The captain lost 5% damage under the pretext of reducing the damage of the groups, as for the captain outside the groups - it was not specified. Compensate for this damage in some talent or skill.

Why didn't that just set it as 10% Damage Bonus for Captain and 5% for Fellowship.

Mind you I still don't understand why they nerfed the Captain at all, would have been better to just fix the Guardians obvious and well documented broken skills.
