Nerf CDR items? :: SmiteFire

I think most, not all CDR items are a bit too efficient. I mean, Breastplate of Valor compared to Chronos' Pendant.

I think all Boots should be reduced to 10% CDR.

Breastplate should lose some Physical Protection.

And Jotunn's Wrath should lose some physical power.

How does that sound?

you stay with yo hands off of mah cdr.

in all seriousness while cdr can help somegods it can work against others that are mana hungry.

ninja tabi is not viable on a lot of pysical gods because they are so mana hungry and they will go oom rather quick. so don't turn it into 10% that but give it a bit of extra flat mana. that would make it a bit more viable compared to pen boots.

okay breastplate could lose some...sign pysical protection.

never forget dawngate and never forgive EA. Freia will hunt them for eternity.

Hell no .

Why would you hate CDR ? :P

On the contrary , I think needs a slight buff .Give it some mana or just a bit more magical power .

Cause I think the current CDR items are a bit overpowered. If you could use your abilities more often, shouldn't you sacrifice effectiveness accordingly?

Just compare Hide of the Nemean Lion with B.Plate. I know Hide has its uses, but Breastplate is my go-to choice for pretty much anything.

Chronos' Pendant has it right. You lose quite a lot of magical power for getting 25% CDR. Unlike Gem of Isolation, which grants a buttload of CC without sacrificing anything.

CDR is the only way to really evade maxed beads, this is coming from somebody who almost exclusively plays as Ares, and knows that good CDR is absolutely essential for certain gods that almost never basic attack. Ares is the perfect example of this, because his basic attacks are next to useless, and the only useful part of him is his skills. Without good CDR, it would break Ares and other CDR reliant gods unless said gods got buffs.

Actually He Bo benefits from CDR far less than others - I've been through this before.

only gods with abilities whit long cd would be nerfed..

but that I think it is a good idea to nerf the protection on breastplate (maybe the mana as well) and maybe remove the penetration from Jotunn's?

Think that is enough to make it decent though :)

Isn't that more of a problem with Ares himself, rather than CDR?

You do sacrifice effectiveness. By choosing , you are losing pen. By getting , you are giving up MP.

But whatever you do, please don't nerf the protections on Breastplate. It is one of the best anti-assassins a mage can get.

Thanks to Ferrum for making the sig pic! He's beast af people.
