I work with a gamepad that repeats combo's up to 100x per second, and I can assure you that the delay allows 2 bots to be -started- before you can Bstep again. It's not that 2 BoT's can complete within the delay, it's just that the 2nd BoT starts 0.1 seconds before the delay of Bstep ends (so it's really sucky to use BoT because it crashes your DPM a LOT if you keep spamming).
The only way to cancel this is to reduce the repeat rate to like 2 repeats per second, but that's obiously retarded slow. Or, I can do it the RSI way, and actually click and release the combo buttons on my gamepad time after time, but I dont really want to get RSI from this game...
Anyway, noone is using BoT anyway anymore, since it still sucks in gMS (lolrange -.-) and it unstuns a monster that you just stunned with bstep... it's like a choice:
- Kill 5% faster with 500x the pot usage, or
- Kill 5% slower without using any pots at all (Max Chakra + Blood Shad ftw).
So no, I'm not complaining, Bstep is really really fast now, and totally kicks ass! I Just used it at Zakum and it's awesome for even better spawn control then before and extra DPM!
It's just... say goodbye to BoT in gMS...
Oh yeah, I only got hit like 25 times at the whole zakum body... it was really annoying... Anti-Bot protection kept disabling all my skills because I was standing at the same spot spamming skills all the time without moving or getting moved by attacks... epic... just epic...
In a thread on basil, fransisco said that BStep delay is now 1410ms. This would mean you have an actual delay of 720ms, so if you fill it with SB, you'll have a perfect flow. If you chain it with Bot, you'll have 30ms left to activate Bot again... Makes you wish they'd decrease the delay by 30ms.
But hey, at least shadowers are now what they were truly meant to be; the people who don't get hit.
