Pheromone Nerf

[vivid sigil]

Bonus (i don't think it's necessary):

• Your cooldowns will immediately end upon successfully stunning a player.

[summer slate]

nah

you have pink shield for it so it is counterable

[vivid sigil]

I've made two versions

[vivid sigil]

That's item dependency. You may not have pink shield, and even if you have it, it's limited, unlike Pheromone

[summer slate]

it would be useless like that

[vivid sigil]

It gives you time

[summer slate]

it literally adds no value as an item. I would use anything over it tbh

also it would make actives like duke, rocky and many more just useless

[vivid sigil]

Hmm this is true. I didn't think about that

[astral pier]

I think that yes it needs a nerf but this is not it

[undone crow]

Pheromone should be only once per game.

Actually, pheromone should be only once per 24 hours per character.

[undone crow]

I think 50+ shots of pheromone every week is reasonable. Or even 50+ shots of pheromone that reload every season (2 weeks)

Pheromone blasts need to be restricted further. This would also deter all the blatant account sharing by level 20s
It's in the best interest of the dev team to clamp down on pheromones and restrict them to once per week per character. That's reasonable enough with 50+ characters in the game
Also clamp down on all the level 20 selling of access, account sharing that takes money out of the dev team's pockets.
These level 20 account sharers are ruining the 2-day events, and weekly events for new players. And messing up clan wars to reward cheaters

[rose current]

The only nerf pheromone needs is increase in cooldown bcz 1.1_1.5 second stun won't confirm a kill usually + pink item exists

[summer slate]

you talk so big only cuz you didnt pay for it lol

if you had spent so much money on it like a lot of people did you wouldnt be saying "just make it useless"

[undone crow]

A mature player being able to use pheromone 50 times every season is very reasonable and still far too much for the long term health of this game

If pheromones get used 50 times, and cause 10 mid-level battle pass players to cancel their subscription and quit the game, that harms the developer team far too much. The devs need to crack down on pheromones further. It is a very low iq item

[summer slate]

delusional.

[undone crow]

Getting to use it 50+ times per season is a lot. And it encourages character diversity in the zoo. Go upgrade and develop your other characters and skillset in this game. Well rounded players

[zenith geyser]

Stop nerfing items it's enough now

[undone crow]

Just limit pheromones to once per season. It’s like a skunk effect. Pheromone item requires 14 days to recharge the stink

Skunks can only fart once every 14 days. Should be the same with stinky pheromone. The animals’ pheromones need to go eat + sleep and recharge. Fast reloading pheromones is not right

[summer slate]

delusional.

Its always the people who never paid for it that come up with the most out of touch ideas

[undone crow]

Limit once per character per season. Needs some time to recharge the stink. 50 farts around is more than enough. And more characters can be added for them to spread out the farts with

[obsidian wind]

Problems. 1 it would be WAYY too hard to code
2. It would absolutely kill the card
3. Read it again bru

A better idea would be to reduce the lifetime to 0.1 seconds instead of like 0.5 like today. That way people cant phero you even though they're across the screen, the player would have to be IN the radius

[undone crow]

Reset every season is easy to code

[shell briar]

Seriously, instead begin buffing the characters that are considered terrible by almost everyone (Louie, Wanda, etc)

[summer slate]

your Ideas are just delusional lol, its ragebait atp

[undone crow]

Reset pheromones every season. 1 per character. Buy early access characters if you want an extra pheromone usage every season. Upgrade and feed all your pheromone characters evenly and get 50+ usages every season

[undone crow]

solos should not just be around dancing and baiting out pheromone
the characters have so much more depth than that
ur enemies should have unique attack sequences. not just a pheromone that you have to bait out

[zenith geyser]

Noo they already nerfed it stop complains and learn how to play with your low items. Solo it's a one on one it's playable if you have skills and if you play smart.

Players are not responsible if matchmaking isn't by level or by level items. Then keep the game attractive for ALL players.

[undone crow]

It's not a nerf at all. Get it straight
The pheromones can function as normal, just once per season per character. And now you can try out more characters, and buy the early access character for an additional pheromone spark every season 🙂

[zenith geyser]

No ! No ! And no ! Many players have invested in this item and paid money to get it like it was. Don't change it.
Learn to play with what you have ! Solo is playable even if you meet full items players while you have low items.

[obsidian wind]

I have a level 20 account

[zenith geyser]

Nice for you but it's not the subject of this topic.

[obsidian wind]

I dont have low items but I still think phero needs a nerf

It's just way too unfair sometimes. Especially if others are teaming

[zenith geyser]

No. solo is playable even if you don't have good items. I fight against full items players every day with 12 phero 12 muscle... While i have low items And i never complains about it ! The fight is more attractive when you meet strong players it's interesting to learn to play with what you have, needs skills and play smart. Stop ruining the game by complaining about Legendary items. Players are not responsible about the matchmaking. Then keep the game attractive for ALL players. Stop thinking only about begginers players. We are here too.

[thorn dew]

Yh

[tight sky]

If you structure your game with tactics, then pheremone will no longer be an obstacle for you in solo. The hamster ball power is a vaccination against everything. Besides, pheremone has already been removed from several game modes and made worse. I think it's perfect the way it is right now. You also have the option to equip pheremone on Duke, which gives you a better chance of stunning others.

[summer tapir]

i agree, i used to think phero needs a nerf but now that i think about it, i dont remember the last time i struggled/died to a phero player because i always have 2 pink consumbles on me. phero isnt really a problem if youre smart with it and know how to counter it

[cold sonnet]

Ofc this will be messing bc it already nerfed before . I think Zooba should delete all the items then the low level will feel with balancing and after short time the game will end . A lot of players left the game after Jungle shoes and all speed nerfed which done at last updates . Instead of that the company can make special module without any items and low level can play there to feel equality . At every game there are different levels of difficulty and no one can win all the times so we need to have good updates to improve the servers and lags issues not every time nerf the item to let low levels win some matches . We are playing the game since many years and we build our accounts from Zero and we will continue because we love this game so much and we spending a lot of money to get this items but low levels will leave after summer vacation or delete the game And we are the ones who suffer 🤣🤣🤣🤣 . There is a saying that goes: "A bird in your hand is worth more than 10 on the tree ."

[cold sonnet]

I agreed

[vivid sigil]

Hmm yeah I understand better now. Even tho I think pheromone is one of the most (if not the most) op items in the game...

[zenith geyser]

"we are playing the game since many years and we build our account from 0" thank you ! 💯

[undone crow]

Pheromone is dumb because it is the same thing as turning your opponent's wifi off. This feature doesn't exist in any other competitive game

[zenith geyser]

Since how many time do you play ? And what did you paid for ? I mean what did you invest in this game ?

Level character ? Items ? Gems ?

[undone crow]

Doesn’t matter. We could hire an external consultant to evaluate and they would have spent $0 on the game. Comes down to personal business knowledge and skillsets gained from living a fulfilling life

[zenith geyser]

Naah man i'm asking because when you paid for something it's not supposed to change after you paid for it. For exemple if you paid for level up your caractère step by step, since many years, and one day developpers delete what you paid for you will be upset don't lie

[undone crow]

You can modify a race car, use it for a couple seasons, then a part gets banned and you have to take it out. That’s life

Especially when the community is dying that you love. Things need to change

In golfing right now, there are these $12000 AI goggles that show visual lines of how to putt the ball for the finish. Some of my friends bought it and use it to try it out, fully knowing it will get banned in a couple seasons.

[summer slate]

Zooba is not a competitive Game.

[zenith geyser]

You want everything like you want, it's an Utopia.
You are not the only one who needs to be satisfied. Don't be égoïst.
You can play squad and battle death there isn't anymore phéromone.

[summer slate]

He thinks he is talking for the majority of players

[zenith geyser]

It's not the case

[summer tapir]

honestly why are you guys still arguing with a wall

[undone crow]

Devs, please limit pheromone more. 50 uses per season is a lot per player. Protect your beginner player base, and cater to the majority of player's interests. Mainly paid battle pass subscribers. You cannot have them cancelling their subscriptions due to these high frequency pheromone lobbies

[summer slate]

Add pheromone back to teams, many people want it back and it helps the community a lot. Also a lot of people like to pay for it so it would be very good to have it back.

[summer tapir]

do NOT add pheromone back to teams

[summer slate]

I’ll send it here every half an hour or so because that will obviously make me correct🤣

[zenith geyser]

🤣🤣

[summer tapir]

😭

[undone crow]

Make pheromones cost gems to use in solos. -1000 gems to use it per game, else it doesn't work. These pheromone players love to call everybody cheapskates, so let's see if they're really willing to pay. Or just washed up cheap players who got it years ago.

[summer slate]

Add pheromone back to teams, many people want it back and it helps the community a lot. Also a lot of people like to pay for it so it would be very good to have it back. Also please buff it so it stuns 5 seconds because that’s just more reasonable.

[undone crow]

Make legendary items cost gems for every use. Gotta pay to play.

[summer slate]

Buff pheromone again it’s been way too weak

[undone crow]

If you buff pheromone a little bit (extend time by 5%), make it cost 5000 gems cost to use per game

[summer slate]

Add pheromone back to teams, many people want it back and it helps the community a lot. Also a lot of people like to pay for it so it would be very good to have it back. Also please buff it so it stuns 5 seconds because that’s just more reasonable.

[undone crow]

The vast majority of players (99%+) don't want pheromones back. They have the mental awareness to know it's a sacky item.

Instead, tax pheromone more in the future. It's a pay per use item. You must have 10, 000 gems on your profile to equip it, and it is 1000 gems to equip it per game, and a 9000 gem additional payment for each win.

[cold sonnet]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[cold sonnet]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[cold sonnet]

U give me a feeling like you are from McKinsey consultant . Please Zooba do to him what he wants .

[tight sky]

Thanks that’s what I’m talking about. 💖

[summer tapir]

[tight sky]

Feel free to share your constructive feedback a screenshot from google isn’t a constructive feedback

[ashen kiln]

🥲🥲😂😂😂😂😂😂

[summer tapir]

"99%" at this point bros just making numbers up💀

[thorn dew]

💯

[dry geode]

I think hes just rage-baiting as this point

[undone crow]

I'm not ragebaiting. Pheromone does huge amounts of damage to this game.

[zenith geyser]

Look, out of respect, I'm not going to say names here. But in solo, some full-item players snipe me, including some who even use self defib. Sometimes I lose, but sometimes I win and when they use self defib I have to kill them twice. What I mean is that in solo it's playable, even if your opponents are better equipped than you, it's one on one and if you have skills and you play smart you can beat them. The pheromone doesn't need to be nerfed.

[undone crow]

It's a terrible item that doesn't need to exist in this game. It doesn't exist in any other type of battle royale game. This type of item hurts the Zooba brand and reputation, makes future players think this game is a joke.

[vivid sigil]

what if they also have skills tho

[zenith geyser]

They have ! ☺️ Attractive fight !

[undone crow]

Pheromone should be relegated to solo-mini only.

[cobalt swift]

Just any mode of solo in general, maybe duos, but anything after that is a no

[undone crow]

No. Pheromones should never stack. Restrict it to solo mini to shut down all the teaming with phero

People who team with phero and purposefully stack it should get banned. Ruins the integrity of the game

[astral pier]

I actually agree with him for once😂

[astral pier]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-macska-cica-vomit-oklendez-gif-14738230240638170539

[astral pier]

Its is a joke though
Feels like it at this point

[summer tapir]

me too tbh pheromones shouldn't been in the game, shouldve never been added

like why is there an item that paralyzes opponents for a duration in a battle royale game

sure theres ways to counter it but it just doesnt make sense

[astral pier]

Yeah because the ways to counter it is also a problem in the game in my oppinion (not the barrel) The pink thing is so stupid

[astral pier]
