These can easily be mitigated by reintroducing the sprint cooldown mechanic from D1 and allowing small damage through the Antaeus shield, these will prevent those slide shottys filling every lobby. This was countered by an artifact from Rise of Iron to make it "balanced". So maybe this could be looked at as something else like a mod or something but make it like a "is it worth the slot" type of deal like the artifacts were.

Something needs to be done but there’s gotta be a better way to give anteus wards a weakness. They were not nearly as OP when they took chip damage
-
Please no. That was the WORST mechanic in d1

Hunter Main Here,The Sprint Cooldown Is a Pain in the ass in D1 and I’ve Gotten killed so many times by it. Adding a sprint cooldown would be painful. Also,Titans Don’t Get that Good of exotics Like hunters,So I say let them enjoy there broken exotic for this season
-
Plz dont bring back sprint locking, just nerf antaeus wards back to when they took chip damage
-
Hahah wards go brrrrr
-
Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Wasn't everyone done with this topic already? Thought we now complain about sunsetting.

*nearly spills his coffee* Sprint cooldown?! What the heck! No that was an awful mechanism!

Edited by an Ape with a d2 addiction: 5/18/2020 12:33:13 PMAntaeus is the problem, so the fix should be to Antaeus instead of a separate core gameplay movement mechanic. Plenty ways the boots could be downtuned. Make the shield one-directional instead of 360 degrees, make it truly only work on projectiles / bullets instead of all possible damage, add a sensible cooldown between the shields instead of 2 seconds, allow some percentage of damage through the shield. Some sensible combination of these should be doable.

As a titan main who uses Antaeus when I decide to shotgun, I agree they need to be reworked. But also rework other exorics to be decent or at least somewhat viable. Most exotics for titans are just stupid, extremely situational, or useless. Same goes for warlock exotics, they've been kind fvcked with exotics. Hunters have a couple good ones, so maybe only rework 2 or 3 max for them.

They’re almost as bad as invisible hunters sliding around and dodging.
-
How many bad players are there to think Anteus is really this much of a problem? Or is this just the brainwashed masses of influencers?
