Aramush Buff/Rework? | Forums

[Daxumo]

Hello

Is something going to happen to Aramusha in the near future?

I feel his kit is very difficult to use against a lot of heroes, defensive heroes like Conqueror and Lawbringer especially- due to his lack of reliable unblockable moves except for his zone, although it gets parried/blocked pretty fast if overused.

Not to mention how difficult his blade blockade is to use unless there is a wall nearby that provide a free heavy.

Am I the only one feeling this way?

Right now, I don't have updated info regarding future balancing, but I'll keep an eye out and definitely share the request over with the fight team.

Thank you very much!

Always good to see a dev team that cares

I don't think Aramusha will get any change in the near future. He's not that bad statistically and he's a season pass hero. I think the devs kind of said that these heroes are not prioitized when it comes to reworks.

Yes, I also remember that DLC heroes won't get a rework in the near future.

I would say he is not difficult to use against lower rep's, but against higher rep's he is very tricky to use. This is due to the fact that he has no ability he can really use to keep an enemy on his toes- Like Conqueror's shield bashes or Highlander's kick/grab etc makes him rather predictable. So I guess if I settle for dominion games I will be fine, but playing tournaments against competent opponents with Aramusha I have noticed is not a very pleasant experience.

If you are right about DLC hero reworks then I am saddened, I play Aramusha quite a bit and know he could be much more interesting, even if you made only small changes like making his heavy finishers unblockable for example.
