Nova

Rework

tltr:
increase utility.
Q remove the base quest, now reduce cd for hitting heroes.
W replaced with flashbang- reduce enemies vision
made bribe basic, it has talents that improve it.

Combat Trait

1
[D] PERMANENT CLOAK
added functionality- active your trait to cast ghost protocol. reduce ghost protocol cd from 60 to 20 sec cd, duration up to 1 second and it no longer summons a decoy.

ghost protocol need less cd, but with shorter cd (and all the other changes) the decoy has to go.

Primary Abilities

1
[Q] snipe
increase damage to 280. quest removed
now reduce cd by 2 sec if you hit an enemy hero.

the quest was promoting "afking" and punished players for no reason (if the target dies before Q gets to it)
2
[W] flash bang
new! throw a grande that explode upon impact, dealing 100 damage in a medium aoe, reduce targets vision for 1.5 sec and slow them by 30% for 2.5 seconds.

12 sec cd, 65 mana.

point and click slow didn't brought much and made hitting with snipe too easy, reducing sight will work better with decoy.

this change is more drastic than the others so im not 100% sure about it.
3
[E] decoy
cd reduced from 15 to 12 sec.

Secondary Abilities

1
[1] dominate (additional basic ability)
new!- Hero Takedowns grant 10 stacks of Bribe. Use 20 stacks to bribe a Mercenary, instantly defeating them. Does not work on Bosses. Maximum of 80 stacks. If a camp is defeated entirely with Bribe, the camp respawns 50% faster.

she needs a way to have pve in order to be competitive, so instead of having wave-clear she needs to kill in order to get it.

Heroic Abilities

1
triple tap
if the target is eliminated, gain additional 10 stacks of bribe.

added some extra utility.
2
Precision Strike
no change
