Kineas87Posted 9/20/2012 5:26:42 PM | I'm getting the game tomorrow (EU), but can someone tell me, is Helios triggered the instant the enemy becomes suspended or you can trigger it manually?
I'm asking because if the explosion happens instantly, then Convergence wouldn't be as effective, as it takes a moment to pull the other enemies on the first one (as I've seen in some videos). The farthest of enemies travelling mid-air would miss the explosion. Right?

_AverageGamerPosted 9/20/2012 5:43:41 PM | I think Helios is "alright." I have it at 5/5. Honestly, it's only good if you have some enemies next to a barrel. That way Helios will destroy the barrel and the enemy will take some massive damage from it.

troquPosted 9/22/2012 10:54:03 AM | I was using this skill last night and I put 3 points into it over time. Each time it burned the enemy for 5 damage a tick. I eventually respecced out of it and just put one point in since that seemed to be just as effective as 3.

_AverageGamerPosted 9/22/2012 10:56:46 AM | Actually, I think Helios is alright now. After I leveled a few more times, I feel like Helios is doing some okay damage for what it's meant to be. Also, I can't tell you have many times I've used Helios to kill off a group of Larval Varkid. Seriously, annoying buggers.

ParisByNitePosted 9/22/2012 11:05:38 AM | My main right now is Maya and there is really nothing great about the Cataclysm Tree... expect maybe that acid cloud. I'm concentrating on Harmony tree because I'm playing in a 4 man team.

notedeathPosted 9/22/2012 11:09:12 AM | PFirefly posted...I'm highly amused at the fact that no one in this topic seems to know that Maya's skills like Helios and Plague Phoenix are based on the points in it AND your level. A Level 13 Maya with 3 points in helios is of course only going to do crap damage compared to refreshable fire smg dammage.
It's not meant to kill by itself, just get the ball rolling.

zeik56Posted 9/22/2012 11:17:34 AM | I really don't know what game you people are playing (or what game you think you're playing) where playing Maya is hard or underwhelming. If anything I'm killing stuff too quickly. I have a mod that bumps up Helios to level 8 and it's awesome. Especially if you can throw in Acid Cloud and a nice Tesla Grenade. Nothing survives that.

That is until you come across a boss that is immune to phaselock and there are no other enemies around. Not sure how many of them there are but with Terramorphis being one of them can't say I'm looking forward to those situations when they present themselves. |
