The issue is we are applying more Corrosion, than Corrosion decays. We just need some kind of hard cap. I'm not getting in the game until it's fixed.

Dear @dense dove, thank you for your patience.
Could you please describe your issue more clearly and provide us with your Character ID or Nickname.

IMO there is easy way to fix Rook, Simply add a limit to the additional damage Rook does with ultimate. At the moment this is kind of like what Beldelle would be like if she had no limit to the damage increase on Runaway. What that number has to be I wouldn't be able to say, but the current no limit is simply unreal. Please also keep in mind that the damage rook does is AOE, not single target. Having one character like this being so much stronger than anything else will break the game balance so badly will cause people to quit. Im exited for S3, but if this is the damage we are going to see from one character and no one else, then you most likely won't be seeing me in S4. -PhantomSolitaire Increscent V

you still have to consider the following factors:
this is an i5 rook. so you need to whale hard)
another i5 unit on the other side (i suspect is the enabler) so whale even harder.
And if a whale is gonna spend that much, frankly speaking, there is no game balance even if it is i5 of other units... now if both units are no inspiration and can deal that much damage, then i agree that it will be a prob with game balance.
vortex boss 1 fight with lvl 100s unit and very strong support (oggok + frurbath), close to 19min fight.
can't see the gears here as well. what if the new mythical gear is being used? what if all 5 units are using legendary artifacts that is very suitable for them?
There are so many things combined that needs to be considered.

@falrim It would be one thing if this was SINGLE TARGET dmg, but rook is an AOE dmg dealer. The other 5 inspiration leggo did 47m, compared to Rooks 2.7 Billion, and yes this is 19 mins on lvl 1. However, even if Rook only did 1/4 of that on a lvl 4 vortex, that's still 700M on an AOE damage dealing character. One of the best things about this game has been that there are a variety of teams that you can use to top the vortex/End of Season boss. Beldelle/Flora/Nastjanaka/Lothair etc. can all be competitive when built correctly, and no one hero was just the absolute highest dmg in every aspect of the game. Yes a 'Kraken' will always be top DPS because of inspirations on chars, but most servers have a few of those at most. Now Rook comes along and is looking to be the top single target, and the top AOE damage dealer. It's extremely disheartening to come into a new season, where 1 summon above all is going to dominate. For the most part this is a great game that I enjoy playing, but if its just going to become 1 new champ or you're not competitive, then it takes a lot of the fun out of this game. I can easily see a lot of people myself included moving on to a new game if that happens. I would definitely prefer this game to say around, but too much insane power creep via new champs and I can't see any reason to continue on to S4 or later.

well i have yet to look at the skills and obviously no chance to test things out. I will agree that it will be very bad if Rook Alone can deal 700M... but i still feel that most of this high dps is hyped up. he needs many things rights.
Again, gear might be a factor (mythical gear is in S3). Need comparision with other dps heroes using similar gear. The numbers we are used to seeing in S1-S2 may not be reliable.
In addition, usually inspiration can make a very big impact due to additional skill haste, special effects and what not. eg. look at berengar, khrysos, the i5 vs i0 is a very big difference. And we have 2 heroes here with i5.
I have no idea what the inspiration does at the moment but i would say we need to have a i0 comparison here.
Let's not forget the above ss has again a perfect team. at least 2 corrosion, top tier tank(frufby) and support (oggok), not sure what's the role of that last legendary.
but try and run with 2leg (i0)o and let's see how well rook is performing....
if he is still excelling by that much compared to other i0 heroes, then yes, he's broken. but if he needs a perfect team to work well, i5, good gears, then that's a different thing

Thank you all! After the nerf Rook, Corrosion became completely useless. Thank God I didn't get one.
