Krampus opinions

[open path]

Krampus is a new ability that has interesting moves and potential combos. But what do YOU think of it?

Note: please only vote if you have actually used the ability for a decent amount of time!

[gleaming ice]

Krampus is a cool concept for abilities requiring great use of the abilities for combos but there are major things bad about it

E - slowly becoming the speed of 15 souls makes it easy to land your e but most people would use it for running. The poison gas doesn't deal that much damage unless fully charged

Q - pretty good but it would be cool if the sack could absorb multiple players and projectiles than being a combo extender

[maiden tide]

I'd say Krampus in it's current state needs no changes due to how easy it can be obtained, the fact that the E can be used to either run away or charge at the enemy with a high AOE present barrage is pretty nice imo, Q in my opinion also needs no changes considering that it's already a good damage dealer and E compliments that which is pretty good
Low CDs, generous hitboxes for both E and Q (you can just punch the person into the E if you miss since most of the time it's only a narrow difference), and overall a good damage dealing ability for what it is

[maiden tide]

(Forgot to mention, E slows by a lot too if landed)

An ability doesn't need damage to be good, Krampus E slows down the opponent and allows for an easier Q

Even if you don't land Q (which is almost impossible if you're actually near the opponent) the slowness still helps

It would be nice if the E dealt some damage but overall it’s a great ability

[clear anchor]

I'd say it's fun to use and decently strong

The combos are awesome and the pull feels great

Just the Q is EXTREMELY janky as most of the time your enemies will be pushed away from the ground slam

So make it cancellable and increase the hitbox

Oh yeah the E is too slow, so half it's max wind up and increase its scaling

[plush reef]

make an R ability

which kidnaps the enemy in the sack

and releases them after 3 seconds

that would make krampus more fun!!

[maiden tide]

Preach

[maiden tide]

Yea, 80% of the time you won't land a groundslam unless the opponent is poisoned

[sinful pilot]

i thought it only worked if they were poisoned

[eternal prawn]

q only grabs people if they're poisoned

[maiden tide]

u literally did the opposite in ur video

[sinful pilot]

i found that out after

[tepid robin]

very op

[winged bay]

my opinion on krampus it's a pretty decent and fun ability I have been using it for a while I even got a gp to leave the game because of its slowing down ability I still think it should get reworked like add a new ability because it's easy to kill a krampus user really can't be useful for certain scenarios I can think of

[raven lynx]

like aborbing projectiles for its q ability

[somber lagoon]

i like the idea of krampus but its too weak and doesn't have many interesting gameplay strategies at the moment

i'd like to see it get a buff and get more ways to actually fight people in interesting ways

more tech you could say

another thing is that both of krampus's moves, despite being AOE moves, akin to that of beserker or overcharge, are very easy to dodge
now im not saying this is a bad thing, but sometimes people just hit you as they get sucked towards you with Q and not only dont get grabbed if they are under the effect but dodge your swing and slam completely

Your also so vulnurable while winding up E (and its boring because it takes a while) for minimal gain because hitting wound up presents wont give much more benefit than hitting unwound ones

(not to mention how easy it can be to avoid the presents sometimes)

i want players to fear krampus as that music box winds up, frantically trying to prevent or escape them, not just be mildly annoyed as the krampus runs around them like a fly waiting for their presents to fire

[plush estuary]

Krampus has potential, but as of now i find it as useful as freeze in ultimate mode

[minor roost]

they should make the e do poison dmg

and maybe make the krampus m1 do 15dmg and not 10

[arctic sonnet]

very fun to use, but heavily underpowered
the bug that makes you unable to punch people if hit out of E knocks it down quite a bit as well

Q also has some jank to it

[cerulean night]

the E is cool but does basically no dmg and the Q can only carry 1 person and i had times when people wouldn't go in the bag even though they were touching it, at least that's what it felt like

[somber lagoon]

the Q ability can actually grab multiple people 👀

[cerulean night]

what

thats nice but it seems really hard to do

[somber lagoon]

it is so its not really helpful at all 😭

[autumn depot]

It only puts them in the bag if they are poisoned by the E move

[cerulean night]

....

[autumn depot]

lol

[cerulean night]

buff krampus ||nerf soap||

[woven dawn]

There should be other present types (like a blinding one and a coal land mine) with like a 10% chance of spawning so winding up feels worth it.

[cosmic raptor]

Krampus is fun and def unique but imo it could do a bit more damage

[tough eagle]

Krampus is extremely fun to use, but too underpowered to do much damage to anyone without dying 2 times over.

E: Very good for running and pecking off damage, plus the slow is good for a short duration.

Q: Not the greatest ability to have I cannot lie. It somehow dishes a hit without the slam fully sending, making the opponent dodge the attack, and the slam's damage itself does only a bit more than an actual punch, but with a way longer windup.

Overall: It is a fun ability but lacks any power to be used as a proper combat ability. I say this ability is going to be more annoying as an ankle biter than as a threat.

It's like Mystic. Could have been strong, but lacked any power to be used what-so-ever.

Its hard to use on mobile

ability very interesting and funny, but its really hard to use it on mobile, if they rework E ability that was be great

[cunning sparrow]

it's easier to use on mobile than on pc

on pc, you have to hold your finger there

on mobile, you can just swipe to hold

and then a second tap to release

[random plume]

Oh, I didn't know about this, ty

[hexed schooner]

Ehhhhhh

Better than nothing

[rich spoke]

The E is too fast

the rest is kind of weak

[ember crow]

One thing I can't get over, is how hard it is to actually get someone into the bag for the Q ability, it only works like 1/5 times. Everything else is good, there could be more to it tho.

[plush estuary]

apparently they have to have the effect on them when u use Q

[cunning torrent]

My main problem is the name of the badge itself. It made me think it had something to do with crafters obtainment, but it was just some wait and see hour for a tiny chance of getting the thing
