So, Pixonic did this to you again, you think??? Pixonic made you waste money, and then robbed you?
When will you understand, that Pixonic didn't do anything to you. You did this to yourself.

I own a single seraph, and duh, I knew it would be nerfed eventually. Am I complaining that I lost money? Am I saying I feel scammed? Am I saying this was completely unexpected? No, I have been playing this game forever, I know how it works. I am reporting on something that happened, and I am saying it is bad because it is. If you just wanna be an 「bum-bum」, at least do it right.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with this OP bot anymore. What will replace it though? What's the next no skill thing I have to learn deal with?

With the demise of the purple shields the seraph ruled the air again. The pilot that grants it extra flight time was/is ridiculous.
It flies around inflicting damage to multiple enemies for what feels like an eternity, then has enough fuel in the tank to get back and land in safety, or fly to any beacon it wants on the map.
Hoping to see much less of them now but it's obvious there's something else "waiting in the wings" to take its place.

I cannot say I feel bad to see this bot go. Shooting through walls, shooting bots in stealth, having insane speed and durability during an ability that lasts too long, and having a nonsensical design is too much for me. As long as the next bot does not shoot through walls and stealth, I will be happy.

shooting bots in stealth, having insane speed and durability during an ability that lasts too long No doubt another reason why we see more of them since the drone revamp where stealth is everywhere again. Frustrating that the Nessa Raven gets deleted 500m away from the stupid seraph lighting strike just because they look in your general direction.

If I would have been the one to nerf it I would have made it fly the same time, but a whole lot slower. It would have done 1/2 the ability damage and only have been able to hit up to 3 people at once.

You know, Plus an additional two, from the pilot and special skills, and maybe one from a drone. Thinking, 8-9. Put me on Carrier be blastin lightning bolts through everybody, up top, below deck, underwater, maybe hiding in your little corner over there. Master Blaster . .recognize. But, I got agreed to one or two, tops. Just think that if I had Sarah‘s baby Serial Seraph back in the olden days, I could’ve wrecked these guys…. 😇

Frustrating that the Nessa Raven gets deleted 500m away from the stupid seraph lighting strike just because they look in your general direction. That's why my Nessa's got mid-MK2 Pulsars and Magnetars...I may not be able to do much damage to a flying Seraph but I can sure as 「dookie」 lock one in place out to 600m and that's almost as useful as suppression.

I've said it before, the flying bots take the hardest nerfs. With the new anti-reflector guns, Hawk, Harpy, and Siren get an indirect nerf as well. Hawk is already pretty squishy. Be warned.

Be warned. considering the thing flies forever, super super fast, shoots through walls, takes no damage until it lands, shoots multiple bots at once.... yea, that thing can get the Faf treatment, I am good with that. Flying glass canon fits

Wait Seraph was nerfed? I am very late to the party but can someone please clarify the actual figures? Of course it was when I am halfway through building 2 Cryptic Redeemers for mine too...
However, I'm not sad to see it go in the slightest.

Agreed, I have lost track of the amount of purposely OP flying bots they let run amok for a few months until plucking them. Just so formulaic and obvious. Hope all you seraph junkies enjoyed your power trip while it lasted, cuz it’s o vah. UNLESS you are exceptional with it and you can adjust your game

Wait Seraph was nerfed? I am very late to the party but can someone please clarify the actual figures? Of course it was when I am halfway through building 2 Cryptic Redeemers for mine too... However, I'm not sad to see it go in the slightest. It's ability is going to be 6.8 Seconds in duration according to testing done by Adazahi You know I am probably in the minority, but I genuinely do not understand the hate for Seraph. It's rather easy to kill if you aren't playing recklessly, it's mobile with decent firepower but squishy, I've even killed quite a few in flight... Its days as an unbeatable terror of the skies have long since ended, it's a fun bot to use and with a beautiful design, it frankly disappoints me to see so many in the community pointlessly raging at it and welcoming this scam update from pix... I would like to think people should know better by now. As to the killing through walls thing, sure its weapon is still bugged but as a Seraph main myself and having fought countless amounts of them, I have never had the beam break though cover for more than just a moment, I have never been killed by it or killed anyone with it, same goes for anti stealth, its rare and mostly inconsequential... if someone is claiming they got melted by it from full hp in one full burst through a wall I just don't believe that frankly... Should the bug be fixed? Absolutely, is it a huge problem? Hell no. As for me I run 3 in my main hanger, Victoria will hopefully keep them barely useable... without Victoria the bot is completely worthless after this update. Its a bot I have greatly enjoyed getting good at, comboing jump unit with it for a sexy high speed high flying death machine... With the Death of Orochi my prior favorite Seraph became my new passion project, And nothing will make me stop using them, If I cant play the way I want to then I will finally cut all my losses which are massive and delete this game. I knew this was likely going to happen, Seraph may not be op but pix nerfs based on usage not stats, and a lot of people have Seraphs. The cycle continues yet again... And to everyone who for some weird reason thinks this will make their games any easier... Do you not know how this works by now? Seraph is obviously getting replaced... and then everyone can get mad at that... repeat ad nauseam. And in time people will ask for a buff to Seraph just like with all its predecessors, just as has happened with everything update after update year after year.

Fair play but on the other hand, I can't understand players that defend these type of bots in the first place. There's always a reason why players choose to run multiples of these types of bots. They just do too many things, too well. If they at least fixed the miniscule hitbox and shooting through walls malarkey, I'd be OK with it staying as is. Well maybe the over the top shooting multiple enemies as once BS as well. Players will need to find the damage output from somewhere else now.

I can't understand players that defend these type of bots in the first place..... Players will need to find the damage output from somewhere else now. Oh they will get that damage elsewhere, and honestly they already are... the next big thing... The cycle never ends and something worse is always coming. Being mad at older metas is pointless. By "these types of bots" I assume you mean Dash bots, Descend bots, Pantheon, Dragons, Leech and Phantom, Hawk, etc... You know what all those share in common? They were all far too strong at the time they came out, and dominated the meta... but then they got gutted or powercrept into obscurity. Some have some niche value with the right pilot and setup nowadays while others are worthless relics... Despite the outrage each got the outcome is always the same. If people simply wished for an op bot to be balanced I would get it, but the persistent desire to see a bot thrown into the scrap bin is just shortsighted and childish if you ask me. If anything shouldn't people want an old meta bot to keep some viability to go against newer things? It just looks to me like so many players are shooting themselves in the foot by supporting these moves by pix, I don't blame the community for causing the nerfs... pix always does it regardless. But I would hope people would see through it by now, again it's just disappointing. Also have you considered at all that someone may run multiples of something for other reasons than being a meta slave? I have skipped many metas simply because they were not fun. I like sexy designs, and fast and smooth movement, Seraph with Jump unit is probably the most fun I have had in this game in a while... But its not as strong as many recent offerings unless played well, Set aside it's bugs and prior mega boosted stats and it's a cool bot, a true successor to Ao Jun. Such a pity it's sharing the same fate...
