PTR Patch 1.3.0

[Wankey]

All they really needed to do was speed up the missile so it wasn't so slow. But I guess removing it works too. I'm kinda sad about the health nerf again, they should remove the armored part from the infestor since 90hp isn't armored at all.

[MulletBen]

Wow. That's quite a change.

I guess they decided that the missile was a bad idea, but since they were giving players a break there they should nerf infestors some other way.

Well. The last change I was expecting. The other 2... I honestly would not have guessed.

[Wankey]

What pisses me off is that infestors are 100/150 they should be 50/150 like high templar are. Sometimes I have a bunch of gas saved and want to dump them into infestors... but not enough minerals.

You have Gas as Zerg, but not Minerals? WoW...

Well, they did make Fungal duration reduced to 4 sec. That is nerf, even if it has buff on armored.

[Todie]

actually, now i am unsure if all fungal changes were revoked, or just the last one.

I am pretty sure it is just the last one, since they would just say "All of the Infestors changes are revoked" I mean, it would made more sense. But we will see.

[SinsWage]

They tried to italicize the revoked changes but the HTML failed for some reason so it has the tags around it like so "[I ]Fungal growth now shoots a missile[ /I] This change has been revoked"

Not really. It's a huge increase to DPS. Medivacs can no longer outheal the damage of fungal growth.

[Triceron]

Which is a good thing. Medivacs shouldn't be outhealing offensive spell damage.

But being a 4 second 'stun' will force zerg to have more infestors or save up more energy to properly immobilize a group. One Fungal over a full duration isn't enough to kill marines; while standing in a psi storm would.

Yes, but on the other hand, most of the times I will use Fungal probably just to stop the army from moving and not to kill it(well in some situations I will), so those 4 seconds are a lot, my Banelings maybe won't come in time.
