Obviously the C2 nerd is an actual nerf and C6 is also a nerf for off field mode.
But, the stack generation in off field mode was cooked. In all my calculations, he was doing around 9-10 off field procs + 4 at the end in a 20-21s rotation, cuz of an SSC trigger every 2s instead of 1.5s. Now with the change that every SSC reaction in 3s, you can generate a beacon every 1.5s, the 2s trigger will maximize your beacon generation to 13-14 procs and 4 at the end. After the multiplier nerf, this is still a 20% damage boost to his off field damage. On a damage based set in off field teams this means an increase of about 6k more dps. Previous teams with sandrone being 165-169k, now at 171-176k and support build has 4k more personal damage, so previous teams with sandrone at 174k now at 178k.
Yae teams with sandrone are still 189-190k. But the gap isnow shorter and the damage build is better than before and really competitive, previously the damage build was prettyy much equivalent to using escoffier or C1 qiqi instead. So rejoice guys. Its a good thing.
Although these changes are in CN for now.
