Random Deal Adjustments

Yarr,

I’d like to share some information about upcoming changes to corsair’s Random Deal ability.

Currently, Random Deal includes each and every ability into its chance factor in the case of abilities that are separated into multiple categories hierarchically, such as Phantom Roll. Due to this, the possibility of Phantom Roll being chosen greatly increases. With that said, we are planning to make changes so that Phantom Roll only counts as a single ability. (Similarly we will also be changing abilities such as Samba/Waltz, Jump, and other abilities that share recast timers.)

While this change won’t quite make it in time for the version update taking place at the end of September, the Development Team is working on the change and aiming to implement it during the following version update.

I always use random deal to reset my Phantom Roll timer when I bust and use fold - this seems like a nerf to me .. but I'm not a COR main so others may see it differently.

Jump and Spirit Jump share the same timer. High Jump and Soul Jump share the same timer.

Sounds like they're making sambas/waltzes and the different jumps count as one ability under the effect of Random Deal. It's not really a change to dancer.

Jump and Spirit Jump share the same recast as do High Jump and Soul Jump.

From what I understand, every ability that is used has an equal chance to get restored by Random Deal. Something like Jump would get two chances since there are two abilities on that timer. Likewise, Waltz recast timer is shared by eight different abilities making it eight times more likely to be chosen than other abilities that are awaiting recast.

If I am understanding this correctly, Phantom Roll (with 29 abilities that share this timer) has a significantly greater chance of getting restored than other abilities, so SE aims to "fix" this.

But I am not a COR, so correct me if I misunderstood this.

So basically they are gonna make it truly random instead of stacking the deck that some thing are more likely to be hit than others.

This does sound a bit like a "nerf" to me sadly :(
I also will use Random Deal, not to reset Phantom Roll more or less, but to reset Quickdraw.
With 8 different QDs, it usually has a higher chance of getting reset.

Going to kinda blow if it works differently from now on.

Not sure how i feel about this, If i need to random deal, its usually because fold+snakeye are on cooldown and I pop tripleshot too then swap in commodore frac +2 then random deal hoping I get multiple JA restored. Quickdraw charges already being used are a given if a cor is ever going to use random deal.

Hey SE how about making random deal merits cut the timer down more?
