# 1 Powers nobody uses and what needs to be nerfed so people use them

There are tons of powers in Champions Online. The problem is many of the powers are just not being used.

When was the last time you saw someone use Mini-mines or Eye Beams? How about telekinesis ?

Something needs to be done, how useless is it to have all these powers and people only use the useful ones while the useless ones are ignored???

I want to see more people running around using Retaliation and Focus of the Untamed Warrior!

Now, I know what you are going to say, but, while effective, a simple Martial Arts nerf is not going to be enough. So instead of going down that road, I propose a better, more stable and agile solution. A seriously brutal motherfkn beatdown nerf to Martial Arts. I am talking a hardcore Martial Arts curbstomping. The lead pipe kinda beatdown. You remember that scene in Inglorious Basterds when Sgt. Donny Donowitz took the baseball bat to the Nazi officer? That kind of beatown.



Once that happens, you will see more people using some of the less used skills in the game. Of course I also like the idea that you have a blank screen when you play unless eye beams are active. That would make them wicked OP and need a nerf tho.

So, you want to make a **** poor powerset even worse by nerfing it.....so people will be forced to use **** poor powers?

I'm getting the impression you are confused about what nerfing means.

Those of you not familiar with Blinkus's "Nerf MA" stance should check out this thread. He posts tongue-in-cheek but the issues are relevant. This game is a huge cluster of inbalance and while it's reasonable to expect SOME powers in a Framework to be throw-aways, it should be more the exception than the rule.

The Devs have means for collecting data about how many people are using which skills. They use this as an indication of which abilities may be underperforming and which may be overperforming. In addition I'm sure there's a specific place to post this kind of feedback.
